WATER COMMISSIONERS' REPORT.
JANUARY 1, 1909.
The Board organized March 16, 1908, by the choice of Doug- las M. Easton, Chairman ; Frank H. Torrey, Clerk ; John H. Stetson, Treasurer.
Frank H. Torrey was chosen Register and Collector, the Com- missioners to pay for his bond, he to receive expenses and thirty cents an hour for labor actually performed.
Miss C. E. Briggs continues clerk at office at a salary of $500. I. M. Lowe continues as Superintendent at a salary of $750.
C. B. Cushing continues as Accountant at a salary of $200.
G. W. Sargent continues as Engineer at Pumping Station at a salary of $1,050.
Once more the whirly-gig of time has wound up another year, and for the Water Department it has been one of extraordinary complexity, requiring the exercise of patience, stamina and diplomacy, intermingled with a great deal of moral courage and a little common sense, and glad are we that we have survived the conflict and live to tell the story.
Owing to the very dry summer, the demand for water was ex- ceedingly large, especially by those residing on the higher levels ; the complaints in most cases were justified, and every method known to us was used to give the needed relief, yet we came far short of accomplishing what some believed we could but would not do, and no amount of reasoning would convince them to the contrary ; those living on lower levels could not be persuaded to economize in order that a more equitable supply could be given, nor could the users of hose be prevailed upon to use the same only during the hours laid down in the rules ; we were therefore obliged to put on inspectors, which resulted in catching some of the law- breakers, and for which law-breaking they found their water shut off, themselves put to quite an inconvenience and an expense of two dollars before their water was turned on again.
254
At one time it was considered advisable to enforce the rule al- ready laid down regarding the use of sprinklers, but concluded it was better to bear the ills we had than flee to those we knew not of.
The pumps were run with due regard to the demand and safety for fire protection, pumping as high as one million and ten thou- sand gallons a day, and assuming that as much runs through our gravity system, makes an average of about 150 gallons per head per day, whereas 60 gallons per head would be a normal amount, hence it was evident that it was not a short supply at the pond, but an inconsiderate waste by those who were fortunate to have more than enough.
Our experience of last summer has taught us that our present main pipe from the pond to Central square is not large enough to supply the demand when using the quantities we were then trying to supply.
Therefore we have either got to increase our main supply or curtail the waste, and in this connection the board recommends the installation of meters ; by so doing we would accomplish four things, viz., save enlarging our main pipe, curtail expense on high service, place everyone on an equitable basis, and last but not least, postpone the sewerage question to a considerable later date.
The Commissioners are always glad to have any real or seem- ing defects called to their attention in order that existing condi- tions may be improved to the end that better service be rendered and that the supply at the pond will be kept free from pollution of any kind ..
We were glad that the South Weymouth Improvement Society took it upon themselves to inspect the conditions of the several camps around the pond and calling our attention to what seemed to them rather unsavory conditions.
The campers have at all times complied with our requests for the betterment of the surroundings, so we felt that if the conditions were not as they should be we were to blame, and having done all we considered necessary, yet knowing we were not infallible, we called on the State Board of Health (to whom we had applied in August previous) ; they sent to us a sanitary engineer, and he with a delegation from the Weymouth Board of Trade together with the commissioners visited the several camps. .
255
The suggestions which the engineer made were thankfully re- ceived and will be carried out to the best of our ability, and as heretofore we can take long draughts of our water without fear of any death-dealing consequences.
In order to carry out our ideas regarding the installation of meters,, an appropriation of $5,000 is requested for that purpose ; the average cost per meter will be about $15, or a total cost when fully installed of $45,000.
We also ask for an appropriation of $5,000 for the purpose of new construction that may be found necessary ; also appropria- tions from the revenue of the works as follows :
