REPORT OF BOARD OF PUBLIC WORKS
To the Citizens of Andover :
The Board of Public Works submit their fifth annual report, it being the seventh of the Sewer and fifteenth of the Water Systems for the year ending January 12th, 1904.
SEWER SYSTEM
No. of sewer connections, 1903,
23
No. connected to date, 390
Sewer bonds,
$115,000.00
Cost of maintenance,
$785.33
Sinking funds,
$42,991.01
The Sewer System is practically the same as when our last report was made. No extensions to the street lines have been made, and only a few improvements to the general system, and very few repairs have been necessary.
The flow of sewage has increased considerably with the extra connections made, but this has been disposed of with ease, and everything connected with the system has worked very satisfactorily.
There appears to be some misapprehension in regard to benefits accuring to unoccupied lands abutting on streets where sewers are laid. True, there may be instances where the assessments on these lands may seem a burden, but it must be admitted that these lands are enhanced in value by being so situated, and any of this property sold will, or ought to, bring more than enough extra to offset the assessments. If we may judge by the urgent calls for both water and sewer from settlers on new streets not already so provided, these two blessings are appreciated and willingly paid for.
4
If these lands are to be held and continue to be unoccupied and unimproved, the benefits derived may not be so easily determined.
WATER SYSTEM

Cost of system,
$239,138.66
No. of hydrants,
218
No. of drinking fountains,
7
Sinking funds, $12,795.24
There were laid during the year 2556.8 feet of 6 inch pipe, as follows : 299 feet on the Locke estate, 1584 feet on Pine street, 397 feet on Avon street, and 276.8 feet for Smith & Dove. The system now contains over thirty miles of pipe.
The street lines have not required very many extra re- pairs or heavy expenditures and are all in good condition. Several service pipes have been replaced with new ones and no doubt this part of the work will require more attention in the future than formerly, but, fortunately, the extra ex- pense will not be great.
The water has been exceptionally good and the amount in the pond has been very uniform, and as a matter of fact this is a peculiarity of our supply source, it varies but little whether it is a wet or dry season. The late fall and early winter affected many supply sources very seriously, yet ours has remained in about its normal condition, with plenty for . all requirements and to spare.
5
The coal shed at the station will require some repairs and a general fixing up before another large lot of coal is put in. It is hard to tell what this will cost, but it probably can be done without great expense, so that it will be all right for some time.
A small ice house has been built for the use of the engineer, taking the place of a temporary one, located near the coal shed.
While the conditions as they exist in regard to the effect of electricity on the water pipes may not be as bad as in some other places, it is serious enough to cause anxiety for the safety of our system in this town.
Last spring our attention was called to the effect of elec- trolyses of several service pipes, and the bad effect on some street lines, and we deemed it of sufficient importance to employ an expert in this business to test and ascertain, if possible, the true condition of the pipes that seemed to be the most liable to injury from this source. I submit his report for your consideration.
METHUEN, MASS., June 1st, 1903.
Board of Public Works, Andover, Mass :
GENTLEMEN : - In compliance with the request of your superintendent, I herewith submit report showing test read- ings, relating to electrolysis of your water main, which were made on May 19, 20, 21. These tests were made by the writer, assisted by your superintendent, who is familiar with the conditions as found, and can without doubt give you further enlightenment on any point not fully set forth in this report.
The conditions in general are not extremely bad, but are sufficiently so as to cause a general deterioration of your pipe lines, especially at points where the mains are in very wet ground and the earth salts are favorable to electrolysis. While breaks in the mains may not occur at present from
6
this cause, they are sure to develop at some future time, de- pending on the different controlling factors.
The cause of the railway current leaving the rails and following the pipe mains is insufficient conductivity in the rails whereby the current is returned to the power house. There are several reasons for the lack of conductivity, but there is a way to overcome the difficulty if the street railway officials care to expend a sufficient sum and arrange a low resistance path for the return current.
The following is a report of the test made : -
Dead end of water main, south end of Main street, highest potential 10 volts, 6 amperes, current rail to pipe ; reverse 1.5 volts, 1.5 amperes.
Hydrant, Salem and Main streets ; rail to pipe 3.4 volts, 4.0 amperes ; reverse 1.5 volts, 5 amperes.
Punchard avenue and Main street ; pipe to rail 2.5 volts, 4.5 amperes, also between hydrants parallel with rail (500 ft.) 1.5 volts.
Hydrant, north side of Arch bridge ; rail to pipe 5 volts, 7 amperes. South side of same bridge ; rail to pipe 6 volts, 5 amperes.
Hydrant, dead end of Union street ; pipe to rail 3 volts, 1 ampere. (Through 350 ft. No. 18 wire.)
Hydrant, corner Main and Union streets ; rail to pipe 6 volts, 6 amperes ; reverse, 3 volts, 2 amperes.
First hydrant on Haverhill street ; rail to pipe 7 volts, 3 amperes.
Hydrant, Elm Square, reverse fluctuations very marked, pipe to rail 4 volts, 3 amperes ; reverse 3.5 volts, 5 amperes.
Arch bridge, between hydrants (500 ft.) 3 volts, 4 am- peres. Between 500 ft. rail 1.3 volts, measured through No. 18 wire.
May 21st, opened main pipe on Arch bridge and inserted testing instruments in circuit with both ends of pipe; noted a potential of 2.5 volts and a current of 2 amperes, same going in direction of Lawrence.
7
The above were the main tests and are sufficient to show the average conditions in your town.
Wherever current leaves the pipe, it will corrode a certain weight of iron, the amount corroded depending on the number of amperes flowing; as the tests show that current is flowing along the pipes, it is absolutely certain that it cannot leave same unless electrolysis takes place at point of leaving.
I believe this report will give you a sufficiently clear un- derstanding of the matter, so that your Board may take whatever course it sees fit in the future.
Very respectfully submitted,
(Signed) RICHARD P. OSGOOD.
This report has been laid before the Board of Selectmen, who will no doubt take proper measures to have this very serious menace to the safety and well-being of our water pipes remedied.
Very respectfully,
