REPORT OF THE BOARD OF HEALTH
Monthly inspections have been made with the State Department of Public Health, Pure Food and Drug Division, Department of Agriculture, and Sanitary Engineer.
Effective May 1, 1951, the Board of Health of the Town of Weymouth enacted new regulations pertaining to cesspool, septic tanks and public sewers for the protection of the Public Health. These rules and regulations are in booklet form, and are available at the Board of Health Office. Sec- tion 4 of the new rules states:
"No building permit shall be issued until the Board of Health has approved the proposed lot as suitable from a sanitary point of view for human habitation, etc."
Throughout the year, investigations have been made on all branches of Public Health.
Monthly meetings are held on the second Thursday of each month, which are open to the public if they wish to attend.

REPORT OF THE WATER COMMISSIONERS
During the past year, your Water Department has completed the new one million gallons per day gravel packed well off Main Street. Contracts for both the well and the small pump house are nearly complete. The new pump has been tested and meets the required specifications for effi- ciency.
The contract for the new Booster Pump at the Filter Station was completed this year, and, together with the cleaning of 13,000 lineal feet of 14-inch main, has increased the efficiency of the gravity system to a marked degree.
The continuing increase in the cost of labor and materials has reduced the margin available for capital investment to the vanishing point. Ex- tension of mains in outlying districts on public highways are now financed by the applicants by a ten per cent guarantee annually in lieu of a water bill.
Our much-needed program of reinforcement of present arterial water mains should progress in 1952 with proceeds from a new $100,000 bond issue.
Respectfully submitted, STANLEY T. TORREY, Chairman HARRY I. GRANGER, Clerk · JOHN E. HORACE CLARENCE W. TAYLOR JOSEPH CREHAN

REPORT OF THE SUPERINTENDENT
Activities during the past year included the cleaning of a portion of the 14-inch gravity main, overhauling the pumps at Circuit Avenue, paint- ing the exterior of the Filter Plant, alteration of the meter pit and instal- lation of a new 8-inch compound meter at American Agricultural Company, overhauling meters at the Filter Plant, and complete overhaul of the boiler at Hollis Street.
Water mains were engineered and installed by Department forces for the new well off Main Street and also for the new Booster Pump at the Filter Plant. For other extensions of mains, see Table IV.
A truck-mounted backhoe was added to our equipment. A business coupe and a one-ton Chevrolet truck were replaced, and a portable chlor- inator was purchased for emergency use.
As to personnel, Miss Martocchio resigned from the office force in June. In the same month, Mr. George Maynard retired after 31 years of service with the Water Department. Later in the year, the Department was saddened to learn of his death. A former employee, Mr. Harry Ruth, also passed away this year.
The drought of 1950 was offset by excessive rainfall during 1951. Hence our Circuit Avenue emergency station was not used since the water level at Great Pond remained at a high elevation all year.
The Department has undertaken to follow Civilian Defense activities, and two of our men attended Civilian Defense School at Needham.
Daily tests of water samples continue to report our water of excellent quality and free from contamination.
We recommend that the filter sand be replaced, a new meter testing machine be installed, that the reinforcing program on water mains pro- ceed, and that consideration be given to enlarging the clear well storage capacity at the South Weymouth Station.
Your Superintendent wishes to express his appreciation for the co- operation of the Board of Water Commissioners, and for the co-operation also of all Town Departments.
Respectfully submitted,
SYDNEY C. BEANE, Superintendent.
