This year we have added one fountain at the dead end on Main Street on the Reading End. This has given first class service; it is the only fountain that has not given trouble or frozen up this season. We have also changed one hydrant on


17


Stinson Street to a new location, about 12 feet from the drive- way of Mrs. Georgiana Doles.


There have been reported and found during the past year 20 leaks, which were divided as follows: Thirteen were on our main pipe lines, either joints blown or started; five were on service pipe, and two on gate boxes. I would say that another year has passed and our oil engine and pump on the Hill are giving excellent satisfaction. No repairs or parts have had to be made or done since it was started in November, 1908. The trimmings on the building have been painted the past year. The 100 H. P. engine at Haggett's Pond, as you will see by the pumping records, has run very near the whole year, and has given very good results. The makers have sent a man here this fall and have given it a thorough overhauling, finding it to be in good condition. There has not been any time this year when the pond has been below 15 inches from high water mark; this was the week of August 27th. The Deane Steam Pump which was bought by the town in 1896 and which has done practically all of the pumping since, until the oil engine was installed in October, 1910, is being overhauled, and some necessary repairs have been made this winter, so that everything will be in first class condition when needed.


During the year 1911 we have used our boilers and Deane Steam Pump 56 days, pumping 33,044,550 gallons, a daily average of 590,081 gallons, and taking 429 hours and 4 minutes time. The following table will give the pumping record of oil engine :

SEWER DEPARTMENT


During 1911 there were 28 applications for house connections received, and 28 laid, making a total of 589 laid.


Length laid during 1911, 2051 feet.


Present length of connections in service, 35,553 feet.


This year there have been 3 of the beds, Nos. 12, 13, and 20 laid over, and we find that they work a great deal better. In laying these over we left all joints open a little and covered all around the same with crushed stone. We have done this now to 5 beds, and the beds all do better work than before. The State Board recommend that we still continue doing this, as well as finish the bed we started a few years ago which is now needed. The pump house at Phillips Street has been overhauled this winter and we found that the Water end of the Sewer pump was all worn out. A new one has been bought, valve chambers, rods and valves complete. The system is in a good condition, but would recommend that the same appropriation be made this year as last so that work at the filter beds may be done a little each year until we have laid over all beds, and built the one which was never finished.


Respectfully submitted, · FRANK L. COLE, Superintendent.
