ANNUAL REPORT
OF THE
Sewer Department
OF THE
Town of Braintree
YEAR 1940
256
REPORT OF THE SEWER COMMISSIONERS
To the Citizens of the Town of Braintree:
The activities of the Sewer Department for the year 1940, together with a condensed financial statement, are presented herewith in the report of Superintendent, George F. Brousseau.
Compared to previous years the amount of new construction under- taken in 1940 was rather small. This was chiefly because of the shortage of suitable W.P.A. labor. The Town Brook pumping station on Common Street was completed and the sewers in this valley extended. A consider- able number of house connections were made. However, the proposed W.P.A. Construction work in East Braintree to furnish sewerage facili- ties for the Watson School, as well as that planned for the district north of River Street, could not be started because of the labor shortage.
From our experience during the past year we feel that no substantial volume of W.P.A. Sewer Construction can be undertaken profitably in 1941. Yet the need for additional sewers is growing rather than diminishing. Districts which for years have been helpless against the menace of over- flowing cesspools should be provided with sewers. Many new housing developments are now under way. Sewers being unavailable in most of these districts, the number of new cesspools is growing faster than the number being replaced by sewer connections.
The Sewer Commissioners have strongly urged the Town Finance Committee to recommend favorable action on a substantial appropriation in 1941 for new sewer construction. We have presented to the Committee pertinant facts and data in support of a program of construction for the next few years and are hopeful that the townspeople will give their full support to such a program.
The Department has had several conferences during the past year with the Board of Health, relative to. sanitary improvements. Among other things the Board of Health has requested that suitable facilities be provided for the disposal of cesspool wastes at an isolated location over one of the main sewers. No suitable place of disposal is now available in the Town and we have, therefore, recommended that funds be provided for this much needed improvement.
We take this opportunity to express our appreciation for the co-op- eration received from the other Town Departments, and for the loyal service rendered by the members of the Sewer Department.
Respectfully submitted, SAMUEL M. ELLSWORTH, Chairman DWIGHT A. CHANDLER WALTER E. THOMPSON Board of Sewer Commissioners

REPORT OF THE SUPERINTENDENT OF SEWERS
January 2, 1941
To the Board of Sewer Commissioners
Town of Braintree, Massachusetts
Gentlemen :
I submit herewith my report upon the activities of the Sewer Department for the year ending December 31, 1940.
Construction :
... 2.
Construction of the Common Street pumping station continued dur- ing 1940 and was completed and ready for use, early in December.
The sub-structure of the pumping station was completed the latter part of August as part of a W.P.A. project started about a year and a half ago. This year's work consisted of 11 vertical feet of walls, 3 stairways and 3 platforms. All of the construction was of heavily rein- forced concrete and, on account of high ground water, conditions, pumps were required in continuous operation until the structure was within four feet of finished grade.
The cost of the work done on the sub-structure this year amounted to $6,940 of which $1,380 was financed by federal funds.
Plans and specifications, for the construction of the pumping station super-structure and furnishing pumping equipment and automatic con- trols, were prepared by the Sewer Department and contracts were let the first of September. Except for electrical contracts this work, was completed by the latter part of November, and the station was officially put into operation on December 7. By the end of the year there were 17 connections to the sewers draining into the new station !!
Of the $9,600 appropriated for the pumping station super-structure $6,848 had been expended by the end of the year. Nearly all of the balance, however, will be requird for unfinished electrical contracts and retained percentages on completed work.
Main sewer construction in conjunction with the W.P.A. was started the latter part of April and continued until the first of October. An im- portant section of sewer in Garland Street was extended from Staten Road to opposite the end of Faulkner Place. All of the Faulkner Place sewer. was completed together with a short stretch of sewer in Staten Road ..
All of the work, except part of Faulkner Place, was carried on at a. depth of nine to ten feet in water bearing soil and required continuous. pumping to keep the excavation under control.
Due to quota reductions and increased industrial activity the W.P.A. was able to supply very few of the skilled workers required for pipe laying, bracing, building manholes, placing reinforcing steel form work and cement finishing. Even the supply of common labor was very limited and unsuited for deep trench work. Under these conditions it was difficult to accomplish much and the Town expenditures ran unusually high.
The cost of the W.P.A. sewer work amounted to $13,895 of which $4,829, was financed by Federal funds.
A short piece of sewer was constructed in Commercial Court to take care of the industrial and sanitary wastes discharged by the East Brain- tree Finishing Company. In order to sewer this property it was necessary
258
for the Company to install collecting sewers and pumping equipment to raise the sewage to the level of the gravity sewer. All of this work, includ- ing the sewer in Commercial Court was paid for by the East Braintree Finishing Company.
The following is a summary of sewers constructed this year:

All of the sewers constructed are now available for use. House Connections:
There were 93 sewer connections, totalling 4568 feet, made to the sys- tem during the year at a total cost of $7,379.81. The total number of con- nections is now 628.
Where the sewer is available the only streets that have 100% of the houses connected are: Circuit Road, Coolidge Avenue and Faulkner Place. There are a number of streets, however, that are completely con- nected except for two or three houses.
The Sewer Department does all the work necessary to bring the service to the inside wall of the building. The charge for a connection depends upon the depth and kind of excavation. The actual cost is billed to the owner upon the completion of the work. No advance deposit is required and the cost may be apportioned over a period of ten years.
Drainage Study:
No work was done on the drainage study during the year.
Maintenance:
During the seven years the sewers have been in operation maintenance has never presented any problem. There were no stoppages in any of the main or lateral sewers during the year. A partial blockade of small barrels and boulders was removed from the manhole on the main sewer in the rear of the Penniman School.
The Town Hall sewer became clogged with plaster and ceiling wash- ings early in May while painting work was being done. A good flushing took care of the trouble. The Monatiquot School sewer became clogged with root growths and about 50 feet of sewer had to be taken up and relaid.
One of the Pumps in the Brookside Road pumping station became clogged quite often. A new sealing plate attached to the impeller elimin- ated this trouble. The cost of electricity to operate the station during the year amounted to $113.81.
.
259
The Department's 11/2 ton dump truck was operated a total of 975 hours at an average cost of $1.08 per hour. The Department's air com- pressor was operated a total of 1,085 hours at an average cost of $1.28 per hour.
Two percent discounts taken during the year amounted to $162.79.
There were 74 sewer assessments levied amounting to $9,217.05. The total assessment levy is now $243,313.52. The collections this year amounted to $22,106.19 making a total of $188,778.88 collected to date, including interest.
Record plans and profiles have been prepared of all the main and lateral sewers constructed and are on file in the Sewer Department office.
A great many requests for the extension of sewerage facilities have been received during the year. Sewers are urgently required in many sec- tions of the Town and every effort should be made to provide relief as soon as possible.
