1. Construction Projects 1960
a) Whitman's Pond Pumping Station and the installation of equipment was completed, tested, accepted, and put on the line October, 1960. This will be a decided aid to pressures stabiliza- tion on the Pleasant Street trunk.
b) Filters at the Filtration Plant were chemically cleaned and painted.
c) New rotors for increased pump capacity are ordered and will be installed during the winter season.
178
d) A larger motor for No. 2 low lift pump is purchased and will be installed during the winter season.
e) A new process of Alum Treatment to reduce operational costs and to avoid the necessity of an addition to the plant for chemical storage is being installed by contract to South Shore Sand and Gravel Co.
f) The North Weymouth and Randall Avenue standpipes have been cleaned and painted inside and out by General Painting & Maintenance Corp.
g) Reinforcing and miscellaneous construction

2. Reilly Laboratories accomplishes frequent biological test- ing as required by the State.
3. Quality control accomplished by town forces with aid of completely modernized laboratory.
3. Economics
a) Weston and Sampson, Consulting Engineers, were engaged to study and propose necessary rate charges. Existing rates es- tablished in 1948. New rates are necessary to keep in line with increased costs.
b) Balance of land on watershed of Great Pond in legal process of being taken by town for protection of water supply.
c) Land on Winter St. site of additional wall, taken for said purpose.
d) Extremely heavy drags on the distribution system early in July caused the division to place a limiting hours ban for a period of five weeks on the use of hoses to adequately protect all citizens with proper fire pressures.
4. Proposed
a) Continuance of reinforcing of mains as monies become avail- able.
b) Installation of new meters at Filtration Plant.
c) A study as to feasibility of purchasing a diesel generator to provide standby power and to eliminate gasoline emergency pump, so as to provide continual source of filtered water to the system.
d) Construction of gravel-packed well off Winter St.
e) Cleaning and painting of Read Ave. and Essex St. standpipes.
X. CONCLUSION
In the year 1960, the Divisions of Public Works worked together with an increasing ability and attitude toward consolidation and co-operation.
During the emergencies of the March snow storm, the September hurricane, and the December snow storm, the efforts of the Town's manpower and the private contractors were commendable.
During this period many problems arose -regular rubbish col- lection had to be cancelled - some private ways and remote streets were late being cleared, breakdowns occurred following the storm and rains, the "Quick Freeze" made many of the streets dan- gerous; the many abandoned automobiles seriously bottlenecked operations.
Viewing the three storms from the primary responsibility of the department, public safety, no loss of life or fire damage loss was suffered due to defective plowing or clearing services.
Upon occupation of the new Public Works Building, further gains in centralization and consolidation will be realized.
With the complexities of the size of Weymouth, the steady in- crease in population, and the popular demand for more service from the citizens, costs cannot decrease - "Holding the Line"- in effect, is a decrease in cost per service.
180
Your administrators of Public Works have held the line for three years, still maintaining increased services, and solemnly vow to continue to propose and carry through major programs that are for the best interest to the townspeople in general. Weymouth is an average man's town and has an average pocketbook.
