Report of the Tree Warden and Insect Pest Control Superintendent
To the Honorable Board of Selectmen and the Citizens of the Town of Milford:
I herewith submit my annual report on the planting, care and removal of trees; removal of brush, the insect pest control program and the dutch elm disease control program for the year 1958.
During the year I cut down and disposed of 17 maples that had died as a result of the drought of the previous year and also removed the stumps of them. Numerous other trees were trimmed during the year.
Under the Dutch Elm Disease control program I cut down and disposed of 105 elm trees that had been condemned as having the disease in 1957. The State sent a crew in for 10 days to help me in the removal of these trees at a cost to the State of $638.48. During 1958 I have 74 elms that have been proven to have the disease and of these I have taken down and disposed of 11 and I have topped 21 in preparation of taking them down when the State . crew comes to assist me in taking them down in 1959.
During the week of October 23, 1958 I bought and planted 4 schwelder and 23 Norway maple trees in various parts of the Town and I wish to recommend that more money be provided to plant more trees in 1959 and future years as our planting of new trees are a very small percentage of the number I have been forced to remove during the last few years.
During the week of June 5th, I had the outlying districts of the Town sprayed by airplane and the intown section sprayed by a hydraulic sprayer. I could not do as much as I would have liked to have done since my appropriation for this purpose was cut $500.00 from the previous year.
Brush was cut and disposed of in the outlying districts of the Town and again because of a cut in my budget of $600.00 it was necessary to overlook much work in this program that needed it.
107
My budget for the care, removing and planting of trees was also cut in 1958 by $223.60.
I wish at this time to express my appreciation to the other departments of the Town for their co-operation during the year of 1958.

Report of the Board of Sewer Commissioners
To the Citizens of Milford:
We respectfully submit our report on operation, maintenance and new construction work of the Town Sewerage System for the year 1958.
Collecting System:
Existing sewer lines have received periodic flushing and clean- ing as required. Due to heavy Spring and wet weather sewage flows the main sewers of the collecting system have overflowed at par- ticular locations for limited periods. Some manholes have been raised to temporarily overcome some of this overflow, but studies are being made to determine the best method of increasing the main sewer capacity to the treatment plant.
Street sewer extensions constructed in 1958 were as follows :-
Location
Size
Length
South Central Street
8" A.C.
600 ft.
Cunniff Avenue
8" A.C.
1105 ft.
Highland Avenue
8" A.C.
855 ft.
Congress Street
8" A.C.
390 ft.
Purchase Street
8" A.C.
1510 ft.
Total
4460 ft. = 0.845 miles
Previously constructed to 1958
32.484 miles
Total Length
33.329 miles
Service Connections:
A new file card reporting system for service connection permits and record of installation was put into effect this year with favorable results. Sixty (60) additional services were installed, bringing the total of 2619 services.
Pumping Stations:
No major work was done on pumping stations, except the routine maintenance.
111
Treatment Plant:
Major reconstruction of the treatment plant, after some delay, was started in October and work is proceeding rapidly, with about 42% completion by the end of the year, helped by having the mechanical equipment on hand for installation as the construction proceeds. It is expected that the major new plant units will be put into operation during the early summer of 1959. Primary treatment continues at the plant during reconstruction.
Completion of reconstruction will result in increased capacity and more complete treatment and the reduction in plant odors.
