WATER COMMISSIONERS' REPORT.
REPORT OF WATER COMMISSIONERS.
To the Citizens of Ipswich :-
Gentlemen,
The Commissioners respectfully submit their thirteenth an- nual report, for the year ending Dec. 31, 1906.
An examination of the report will show that this department has had a very successful year. The receipts from the sale of water for 1906 are larger than in any previous year.
During the year, we have made extensive repairs on the pumps and they are now in good condition.
We desire to call the attention of the citizens, to the fact that although the total amount of money expended for construction since the works were put in is $167,524.62, that there has been only $153,000 worth of bonds issued. There was received $10,412.58 in premiums on those bonds, and the balance, $4112.04, has been paid from the earnings of the plant. In addition to that balance, we have in the treasury $4157.40 making a total of $8269.44 which the plant has earned above expenses.
Last year we called attention to the fact, that it seemed prob- able that the residents along East St. might be induced to guaran- tee the necessary five per cent for an extension along that street, and that it was possible, also, that the growing need of a good water supply at Little Neck, would cause the Feoffees of the Gram- mar Schools to guarantee a sufficient sum to warrant the laying of a pipe across the marsh from East St. to Little Neck for summer use. While we did not succeed in accomplishing all that was de- sired, we did get in that part of the East St. extension from Glov- er's corner to the Searle place, and Mr. Searle has applied for a

further extension to be made as soon as possible during the coming spring. The terms of an agreement have been practically decided on by the Feoffees and the Water Commissoners, under which we ex- pect to have town water at Little Neck before the summer season opens.
There has been very little complaint in regard to the water during the year, and the reports from the State Board of Health, who make monthly examinations of the water, show that it is free from dangerous matter.
We have conferred with the State Board in regard to the question of possible pollution of the water supply from houses and barns situated near the basin, and have received from them a map giving location and distances of possible sources of pollution. When this report is under consideration at the annual meeting, we hope to have a plan to present to the voters for their consideration which will put an end to any possible danger. We do not believe that there is any pollution now, but it would probably be better for the town to act soon rather than when that section of the town may be more thickly settled.
We estimate the receipts for 1907 to be $10,000.00 and the disbursements $13,204.70 as follows : Sinking Fund, $3084.70 ; Main- tenance, $3500.00 ; Services, $500 ; Interest on Bonds, $6120.00
Respectfully submitted, Geo. A. Schofield, William H. Rand, Geo. H. W. Hayes,
