3. Drain Maintenance
In 1963, the eductor crew cleaned 1, 442 storm drain catch basins. This is an increase of 404 basins over 1962. Hand crews also worked on this main- tenance function. As the drain system expands and more of the open areas in the Town are built upon, this maintenance becomes more essential.
4. Street Sweeping
In 1963, the Highway Division continued the program of sweeping two nights a week and Saturdays to augment the daily sweeping. With the increased traffic load, the yearly increase of street mileage and the increasing use of winter sand for ice control, the necessity of a third sweeper is in the foreseeable future.
5. Rubbish collection
In 1963, household rubbish was collected every other week. The Town has decided upon incineration and at this writing the foundation for the Weymouth

6. Highway Seal and Oiling
1. Oiling program was continued on the basis of sealing oil base streets every other year.
2. Bituminous Concrete S. T. treatment - 1963 introduced this program to augment the oiling program. Streets were chosen that had all utilities in good condition and when the roadbed was in fair shape.

d. Nursery - Park and Tree Division have established the beginning of of a Town nursery on Winter St. It is also planned to establish green houses in this area in the future.
E. Sanitation Division
It is proposed to include an Article in the 1964 Annual Town Meeting creating a Division of Sanitation. This Division will be responsible for the maintenance and operation of the incinerator; maintenance and operation of the disposal area; collection of rubbish and garbage.
As noted in Section I of this report, "Summation of Division Budgets Appropriated 1963 - Proposed 1964, " a partial budget is set up considering the following plan:
279
1. To employ the future supervisor of the incinerator May-June, 1964, to observe and follow the installation of the furnaces and appurtenant equipment. The furnaces and dependant equipment value at approximately $750. 000. Advice from Consulting En- gineers, Metcalf & Eddy, and other cities and towns that have recently constructed incinerators, indicate that this is a valuable advantage for future maintenance and operation.
2. The building contractor indicates his time schedule targets com- pletion late 1964 or early 1965. This office has included the oper- ational crew for the incinerator as of Dec. 1, 1964.
3. It is the intent of Public Works to establish weekly collection routes as of September 1964. That will give the Department three to four months to iron out the weekly collection routes, and have them well established for operating the incinerator. With the Supervisor coming on in May -June, he can also familiarize him- self and take part in the initial planning of the weekly collection routes.

1. Tree Planting Program - 1963
The severe cold and rapid temperature changes caused serious losses of trees and shrubs throughout New England. This necessi- tated many replacements, slowing down new planting.
Planting - Spring, 1963 276 trees Fall, 1963 250
Total - 526 trees
Areas - West Lake Drive, Circuit Rd., MacDougal Court; Winter St. - various areas on minor scale.
2. Dutch Elm Disease
The Division has continued to let contracts for removal of diseased trees on private property.
Contract I. Pelrine Tree & Landscape Co. $1, 762.93 327 Trees (Avg. $5. 39 each) II. Manna Tree & Landscape Co. 1, 443.00 106 Trees (Avg. $13. 61 each) III. Manna Tree & Landscape Co. 1,327.00
117 Trees (Avg. $11. 34)
Total-550 trees(Ave. $8.96 ea. ) $4, 932.93
3. Insect Pest Control
The Canker or Inch Worm was again the principal individual pest problem.
Close observation and cooperation of the Department of Natural Resources resulted in a properly timed aerial spray, eliminating a repetition of the 1962 condition.
Other insect problems were of a minor nature, although the tent caterpillar, fall webworm, willow beetle and willow aphis appear to be building up a cycle.

It is the routine duty of the Division to answer individual calls on poison ivy. Areas adjacent to schools, playgrounds, parks, school routes, etc. are sprayed annually. Approximately 200 locations are treated annually.
286
5. Hornets, Wasps and Bees
The Division answered approximately 75 calls on hornet and wasp nests.
Three swarms of bees reported in houses - referred to private bee man. Five swarms of bees reported in yards. Advised to ignore, that the swarm would move on.
6. Clearing of Visibility - Safety Along Roadways
The Division in cooperation with the Police Safety Officer cleared trees, brush and hedges that were causing dangerous conditions at intersections, and blind corners in 34 locations.

29 routes were trimmed by the Division for the purpose of main- taining the Police and Fire Alarm System.
9. Snow Plowing
The Tree Division's two trucks are outfitted with plows and as - signed snow routes.
10. Recommendations: Serious consideration be given in the near future to the purchase of mechanical height equipment.
a. Now standard practise in every modern community.
b. Safety of manpower requires new methods.
c. Allows a more rapid cover of Town.
d. Town coverage by mechanical bucket will net less necessary manpower - less cost.

Contracts were awarded for the chemical storage, chlorine rooms and equipment. This work will be completed early in the year.
Contracts were awarded for the new Einter Street Well, Pumping Station and Pumping Equipment. The Winter Street Well will be operative early in 1964. The present three wells were used as booster stations dur- ing the summer and were extremely helpful during the drought in the fall when pond supplies were dwindling.
289
At the Filter Plant, all filter beds were cleaned and painted. New sand added to #5 and #6 filters, with others to be done in the near future. Main- tenance in the pipe gallery was continued with replacement of old valves by butterfly type.
New Teletax Transmitters were installed at North Weymouth Standpipe and Town Hall for recording high and low pressure mains, with receivers at the Filter Plant to help in better pressure control.
Quality control laboratory, under supervision of Reilly Laboratories, is maintained at its usual high standard.
Recommended for 1964: Continue engineering study for increased stor- age at Great Pond. Repair work on Hollis St. Garage. Complete dyke and construct control house at new dam. Clean and paint Park Ave. and wash water standpipes. Continue study of standby power for Filter Plant. Com- plete study for increased size of Filter Plant to supply needs of Town for population of 70, 000 people.
III. MASTER HIGHWAY PLAN - TO DATE AND PROPOSED 1964
Through 1963, a total of $264, 000 Chapter 90 funds appropriated over a period of three years have been earmarked for the construction of Com- mercial St. from Jaffrey St. to Unicorn Ave., and from Madison St. to Jackson Square.
The State has informed the Department of Public Works that due to a shortage of engineers, it has not been able to design and construct Com- mercial St. The State has indicated that it is highly possible construction will be possible the spring or summer of 1964.
1963 Construction
Middle St. Washington to Hanover St. 1,000'
Winter St. - Main St. to Middle St. 2,800'
Winter Court - repaved
1964 Construction Proposed
Middle St. - Lake St. to Washington
