Tree Warden
JOHN F. LEETCH, Tree Warden
I hereby submit the annual report for the year 1953.
Satisfactory progress has again been made this year on the general care and planting of new trees, to replace those lost through disease and other causes. In 1953, I planted 106 trees throughout the Town of Braintree. The Braintree tree bank was started in 1953. We have, at this date, 360 trees started in the bank which will, in the near future, be ready for planting whenever necessary. I trust this program will be continued to enable the town to fully realize its goal of being able to replace all lost trees and to plant new trees on newly developed and accepted streets New trees were planted in 1953 on the following streets: Parkside Avenue, Washington Street, Tremont Street, Cen- tral Avenue, River Street, Walnut Street, Hancock Street, Safford Street, Arthur Street, Howie Road, Pond Street, Shepard Avenue, Gale Avenue, Blake Street, and Bradley Road.
Appropriated and expended for General Care of Trees on the following streets :

South Shore Mosquito Control Project Commissioners
JOHN B. CLAPP, Chairman, Hingham NANCY W. KETCHUM, Secretary, Cohasset GEORGE F. BROUSSEAU, Braintree EDWARD S. WARRELL, Hull BROOKS RYDER, Quincy HENRY F. GODIN, Weymouth
The Town of Braintree appropriated $6,000 for mos- quito control in 1953. This money was used for mosquito control in the town by the South Shore Mosquito Control Project, a cooperative program for mosquito control, em- bracing the towns of Braintree, Weymouth, Hingham, Co- hasset, and Hull, and the city of Quincy. The money has been budgeted to carry through until May, 1954, so that important early spring control work can be effectively carried out before 1954 appropriations become available.
Type of Control Program Instituted
A control program designed to wipe out the majority of the mosquitoes while they are in the larval or "wig- gler" stage in the water was chosen. This type of control has been shown to be most effective and most economical by experience in New England, elsewhere in the United States, and in other parts of the world. It is felt that such
100
a program, carried forward on a scientific basis, will afford better control at less cost than a program of com- batting the adult mosquitoes after they have emerged, spread, and begun to bite.
The program depends on drainage to reduce breed- ing areas to a minimum, chemical treatment of water which breeds mosquitoes and cannot be drained, and pro- vision for adult control in situations where the above methods cannot be used, such as near water supplies and fish streams and when control is difficult because of terrain or difficult weather conditions such as were ex- perienced this past spring.
A control program such as this builds up in efficiency as time goes on, since drainage is improved, more of the smaller and troublesome breeding areas are found and dealt with, and a gradual cumulataive effect of D.D.T. or a reduction of population is noted.
Types of Mosquitoes and Controls Used
In general, there are four types of mosquitoes in this area : spring fresh water forms, salt water and brackish water breeders, house mosquitoes, and flood water mos- quitoes.
The spring fresh water mosquitoes breed, in gen. eral, in water resulting from melting snow and spring rains. This water collects in woodland swamps and pools and overflows from streams.
The treatment for these forms is early spring aerial spray for large areas and simultaneous ground treatment with pack sprayer in smaller areas. In addition, a new technique, pre-hatch dusting in the winter, will be util- ized. This promises to become a major factor in the control of these mosquitoes.
Salt and brackish water mosquitoes breed in areas flooded by the tides, or formerly flooded and now wet by rains. The species involved depend on the concentration of salt in the water.
The keystone of control of the salt and brackish water breeders is drainage which is in existence on most of our salt marshes and, in many cases, only needs to be put in good shape after the winter storms have blocked the ditches with debris. Treatment of areas found to be
101
breeding is done on the ground by pack sprayer. In brack- ish areas which are not washed continually by tides, pre- hatch dusting may prove to be valuable.
House mosquitoes breed in many types of standing water during the summer, especially in containers around the yard, around dumps, in catch basins, in quarries, and in polluted streams and ponds. Treatment is by pack sprayers. These mosquitoes breed continuously, so such water, especially if polluted, is best kept toxic to mosquito larvae at all times in the breeding season.
Flood water mosquitoes breed in the flood plains, on rivers or streams, and in such places as roadside ditches or pools. These mosquitoes breed in the water present after heavy summer rains, hatching occurring after each considerable rain. Ground treatment by pack sprayer may be used against these forms. Pre-hatch treatment seems to be a very efficient method, from recent tests.
Survey of Breeding Areas
Actual operations started on April 13, 1953, after Lewis F. Wells, Jr., a qualified entomologist, with train- ing and experience in mosquito control was appointed Superintendent. Organization of the project by the Com- missioners had preceded this.
A survey of the entire area, aimed at mapping as many breeding areas as possible, was carried on by Mr. Wells and Mr. Frank Bennett, an inspector from the East Middlesex Mosquito Control Project. All swamp land shown on the topographical map and much not shown was sampled for mosquito larvae by dipping a bit of water from the swamp and examining for the "wigglers."
Treatment
The first aerial spray was applied to 725 acres in the town from April 25 to May 8. A second aerial spray was applied to 314 acres from June 19 to June 25. The appli- cation of the aerial spray, although more than three weeks too late, effected a substantial reduction in the mosquitoes emerging from the swamps after one of the wettest springs on record. To control some of the adults that escaped the spray, a limited amount of mist-blowing was carried on in certain areas.
102
Ground treatment was begun on May 18 with pack sprayers and trucks borrowed from the East Middlesex Mosquito Control Project. Ground crews went from area to area throughout the season, treating places found to be breeding. Wherever complaints were received, an at- tempt was made to locate the breeding area and continue treatment until the breeding was eliminated.
With the close of the breeding season, attention was turned to drainage. Some 3,100 feet of ditches have been opened in the town, and this work will continue during the winter together with pre-hatch dusting. The con- tinued ditching of swamps and marshes and cleaning of streams will eventually result in a substantial reduction of mosquito-breeding areas.
Progress Achieved
Since it was necessary to wait until after Town Meet- ings were concluded before the project could be organ- ized, the first year's results were bound to be somewhat disappointing. However, great strides have been made in mapping of the area and in getting to know the trouble spots. A continuation of the program will enable the work to be carried on much more effectively another year.
Planning Board
JOSEPH M. MAGALDI, Chairman Edward J. Rose Ralph M. Soule, Clerk
Mitchell W. Gawlowicz William G. Dyer
JOHN J. DRINKWATER, Ex-officio
The authority of the Planning Board is derived from the General Laws, Chapter 41, Sections 81A to 81GG, in- clusive. The Planning Board has supervision over de- velopments to control layout of ways, sewerage, drainage, and utilities. The laws relating to municipal planning and subdivision control have been revised on numerous occasions, the most drastic amendments having been made in 1947 and in 1953. These amendments have coincided with one of the greatest building booms in the history of the country. Strong subdivision control laws are neces- sary during such periods to properly protect the taxpayers and prospective home owners.
103
During the past year there have been fewer subdivi- sion applications than in several previous years. This may be due in part to a general reduction in the rate of build- ing, but also, to the activity of the board in requiring de- velopers to fulfill their requirements to the Town with regard to streets and utilities. Much of the board's time comprises discussions with prospective developers and their engineers, regarding the requirements which must be met before an application for a subdivision is accepted. Conferences are held at various times with other Town departments and special committees, in order that the work will be co-ordinated and the best interests of the Town safeguarded.
Our regular meetings are held on the third Monday of each month, but additional special meetings are held as required, usually on Monday evenings.
Considerable time and effort have been given by members of the board in considering the route of the proposed Southeast Expressway and its effect on the Town. If, as proposed by the Commonwealth, this major highway will terminate temporarily at Capens Bridge, the traffic through Braintree will be most difficult to handle. At the request of this board, the Selectmen authorized the Town Counsel to attend a public hearing on the proposed layout of this highway and urge that, if the original con- struction could not be carried through the Town, possibly by a more desirable route, it be terminated at a location where a lesser traffic hazard would result.
In addition to the public hearings on subdivision ap- plications, a hearing was held, as is required by law, on March 5, 1953, on all articles in the Town Warrant having to do with new street layouts and changes in zoning.
At the 1953 Town Meeting, new streets totalling more than 2,100 feet in length and including utilities and sidewalks were accepted by the Town and at no cost to the Town. These streets were in subdivisions previously approved by the Planning Board.
During the year it has been necessary to have the Planning Board map and the Zoning map revised and brought up to date. As this report is being prepared, we are in the process of revising our rules and regulations to conform with the 1953 revisions and amendments to the General Laws on Planning and Subdivision Control.
104
We herewith express our sincere appreciation of the assistance of other Town departments and particularly, to our ex-officio member, Mr. John J. Drinkwater, Town Engineer, and his staff.

NORTON P. POTTER FRANK P. LORD SHELLEY A. NEAL, Commissioners.
Herewith is submitted the annual report of the Braintree Electric Light Department for the year ending December 31, 1953.
The installation of the new 7500 Kw. turbo-generator which was commenced last year was completed in April and this turbine has been in continuous operation for the past six months. The addition of this new generator in-
110
creases the station capacity to a total of 23,000 Kw. This new equipment has improved the efficiency'of the plant. A New 300,000 cm 3 conductor 15 K.V. cable was installed from the plant on Allen Street to the Pearl Street sub- station. This will give the Department a new feeder to take care of the estimated load growth in the South Braintree section. Construction on the new 13.8 K.V. un- derground duct system from Pearl Street to Plain Street sub-station was started in December and will be ready for the cable installation next year. When this section is com- pleted it will eliminate all the overhead 13.8 K.V. high tension lines on Braintree highways.
This year the street lighting has received special attention. The old street light fixtures on Washington Street have been replaced with new 18,000 lumens mer- cury lamps. The street lighting on Quincy Avenue and the Capen's Bridge section are being improved with the addi- tion of new mercury luminaires. New poles and mercury luminaires have been ordered by the Light Department to improve the street lighting around the Town Hall and old library building and will be installed early in the Spring.
Several new line extensions have been added this year to serve the new housing developments. The largest one has 99 units, located in the Braintree Highlands sec- tion. Another is located in East Braintree with 25 units and several smaller ones in other sections of the Town. In all we have added 200 new services, increasing our total number of services to 7839 as of December 31, 1953.
The Maximum Peak Demand for this year was 12,400 Kw. and this occurred on December 17, 1953.
