Bailey's cook-house which overhung Haggett's Pond has been moved off the pond and provided with proper drainage facilities. Although numerous endeavors have been made to induce the contractors, Buxton & Coleman, to complete their work on the telemeter for the high service reservoir, it is still incomplete and there is an unpaid balance on the contract of about $52.00.
The works in general are in fair condition, owing to the small- ness of the appropriation for maintenance it has not been possible to keep everything up to the usual high standard. The pumping plant has suffered most seriously from the neglect and requires a thorough overhauling. Both the engineer's house and the coal shed need shingling; for these reasons the appropriation for the coming year should be somewhat larger than will usually be required. It is folly on the part of the town to expect, with the constantly increasing calls on the department and the in- creased cost of labor and materials, that the works can be main- tained in even a passable condition on the same appropriation as before the introduction of the high service system. The in- creasing amount of pumping to be done would be a matter of grave concern were it not for the fact that the receipts from water rates more than keep abreast of the increase in consump- tion. The pumping has now reached a point when it is too much
20
to expect from one engineer. Means will have to be taken to relieve conditions on this point. The extension of the system to the outlying sections necessitates a great loss of time in answer- ing calls for these portions of the works, lessening the ability of our force to attend to all calls, or in other words, a greater force will be required.
SEWER DEPARTMENT
In 1909, sewers were laid as follows: Harding Street, 465.4I feet of six inch, 2 manholes, crossing B. & M. R. R. from Rail- road Street to Buxton Court, 152 feet of six inch, Buxton Court 486.65 feet of six inch, 2 manholes, Lewis Street, 175.0 feet of six inch, 2 manholes, Temple Place 235 feet of six inch, I man- hole, Chestnut Street 1129 feet or six inch, 5 manholes, 1129 feet of underdrain. The total length of sewer pipe was 2641.57 feet.
3I applications for house connetcions were received and 32 connections laid. Number of applications received to date 546.
Number of house connections in service, 525.
Length of connections laid in 1909, 1499 feet.
Total length of connections in service, 32,689 feet.
The low level pumps at the Shawsheen river have been thor- oughly overhauled ; those on Phillips Street will require extensive repairs the coming year. The filter beds and system are in ex- cellent condition.
The funds available for construction are exhausted and there is due the Water Department, for bills paid and material fur- nished, the sum of $705.60. While the appropriation for main- tenance was overdrawn, there were extra expenses during the year which will not ordinarily be met. The usual appropriation should be sufficient.
Respectfully submitted,
JOHN E. SMITH.
