Report of Water Department
REPORT OF THE WATER COMMISSIONERS
For the calendar year ended December 31, 1933, the report of your Board of Water Commissioners is here presented.
The outstanding feature of the Department's varied activities during the year was the installation of the South River Pipe Crossing whereby the Humarock Sec- tion of the town was given ample fire and domestic water service. Water is purchased from the Town of Marsh- field for this system at an agreed rate for the year be- tween the Commissioners of the towns. This job was done with moneys raised at a special Town Meeting held November 26, 1932. The Department contracted with R. H. White of Auburn, Massachusetts, January 11, 1933 to do this work, and of the alternative propositions in the specifications, 10" Transite Pipe, adapted to and recom- mended for this particular class of work, was used. Work by the contractor was in progress from February 16, 1933 to August 12, 1933 when it was finally accepted. Inclement weather at the start and unforeseen construc- tion difficulties during the progress having delayed the completion of the work.
Other major projects under progress during the ycar were the completion of the unit at Gannett Field, North Scituate, purchased in 1932 of Howard H. Young, where a 300 G. P. M. electrically operated pump in an attractive masonry building was set up and operated ;
198
Report of Water Department
the installation of booster pumps to the deep well pumps at Webster Meadows, whereby water is forced directly to the mains, avoiding the dual pumping of past years; the electrification of the pumping unit at the Beaver Dam Station; and the various main extensions throughout the town.
The problem of additional ground water is still with us. Exploration work is being pursued, and at this writ- ing, some encouraging indications have been found, suffi -. cient to warrant its continuance.
During the winter months, at the beginning and at the close of the year, many of the town's needy and un- employed were provided work and income by the Depart- ment's pipe line extension activities; the earlier months by funds raised at the Special Town Meeting of Novem- ber 26, 1932 and the latter months by an expenditure of $4,000.00 of the Department's earnings, supplemented with a bond issue authorized at Special Town Meeting of December 14, 1933. At this meeting $21,500.00 were raised to purchase pipe and materials only ; the labor ex- pense of laying it being furnished by the Federal Govern- ment under the Civil Works allotment to cities and towns under the National Industrial Recovery Act.
Your Commissioners took early advantage of this grant and presented to the federal authorities projec's which were readily approved and allotted for; Scituate being one of the first towns in the state to get recogni- tion and funds. This work is in progress at this writing.
While the Department is advancing in the extension of mains, considerable yet remains to be done to reach the desired point.
199
Report of Water Department
Though this work tends for better distribution, it contributes little to operating economies, to which we con- stantly aim, and it is still our firm conviction that the erection of the 1,000,000 gallon stand pipe previously pro- posed at Hatchet Rock offers the most for efficiency, saving and security. Too much stress cannot be laid on the importance of this reservoir.
The fixture rates established for 1934 remain as of 1933, those for metered services are revised only in the volume allowed; billing excesses semi-annually instead of quarterly.

Report of Water Department
SUPERINTENDENT'S REPORT FOR THE YEAR
ENDING DECEMBER 31, 1933
To the Commissioners of Water:
Gentlemen:
I beg to submit herewith the Second Annual report of the Scituate Water Department for your consideration.
The year 1933 has shown very definitely that the Water Department is one of the greatest assets to the town. Not only has it been possible to reduce the charges for water service, but also, through the Water Depart- ment, has the town been able to put to work, a great many men who would otherwise have been unemployed during the winter months.
The relief of this unemployment was carried out only by the ability of the Water Department to furnish neces- sary work and material. The Water Department, in turn, has benefited to a great extent by the installation of these very much needed water mains.
The project which was completed during the early months of the year was financed entirely by the Water Department. The bonds issued for the work covered the cost of the installation of mains in Humarock and several mains in Scituate.
The work carried on during the last two months of the year, was financed by, money for labor, made avail- able by the Civil Works Administration, a bond issue to
202
Report of Water Department
be retired entirely by the Water Department and $4,000 taken from the earnings of the Water Department.
These projects have proved a salvation to the town at a time in the depression when work was most needed.
Early in January the 10" line from Greenbush Sta- tion to the wells in Webster Meadow was completed, thus putting in service an underground line from the wells to the distribution system.
A short section of 6" main was laid on Common Street at this time and the work of installing a 10" main was started in Humarock. The work in Humarock pro- ceeded more rapidly than was anticipated because of the mild weather which was unseasonable.
A contract for a pump house at Bound Brook wes signed January 4, and the work started at once.
On January 11, a contract was awarded the R. H. White Co. to lay Transite Pipe under the South River to make the connection between the Humarock Mains and the mains in Marshfield. Work was started on this con- tract February 16.
The installation of 6" main on Crescent Avenue, to replace a small shallow line was started January 23rd. The main was laid around Second Cliff to complete a loop, and hydrants set to cover the entire area.
A short line of 6" main was laid on Border Street at Gannett Road, and a hydrant set. This hydrant enabled the Fire Department to furnish fire protection as far as Hugo's.
On January 25, a contract to furnish pumps at Web- ster Meadow was awarded to Starkweather.
203
Report of Water Department
The dike at Webster Meadow was washed out, at noon, January 27, by the high tide and N. E. storm, repairs were started immediately, but considerable salt water flowed into the meadow. This same storm destroyed tho breakwater on the Glades Road, and the 8" main was broken at that point.
The 130 H. P. Diesel was overhauled during Febru- ary and one of the pistons was found to be cracked. The cracked piston was replaced and the engine put in service.
At the request of all the property owners on Borden Avenue a 6" main was laid to relieve this condition, early in February.
A 6" main was laid on Park Avenue and Maple Street connecting at Turner Avenue and Hatherly Roads. The work was completed March 20.
On March 4, at 11 a. m. the Bound Brook pumpin -: station was put in operation. This station afforded ver" great relief to the system and made possible the pumping of water directly into the system from all stations during the peak loads in summer without changing the mains.
The size of the main at Greenbush was one of the difficulties that became very expensive during the sum- mer months, because of the additional pressure required to force the necessary amount of water through the main to the standpipe. If a one million gallon standpipe were installed in the system this expensive pumping would be practically eliminated as the water could be pumped to storage during the hours when the domestic draft was small.
On March 25, water was pumped, for the first time, directly into the mains, from Webster Meadows. This ar-
204
Report of Water Department
rangement eliminates pumping from the Greenbush Sta- tion except in case of emergency, and together with the other pumping units in the system eliminates the use of the pond water through the filters.
Water from the Marshfield system was turned into our mains in Humarock for domestic service, April 3, at which time there were a few consumers using water.
A short extension of 8" main was started April 11, on Tilden Road, and completed April 20.
The Beaver Dam pumping unit could be operated to greater advantage electrically and on May 31, a 15 H. P. motor was set and belted to the triplex pump. This unit was arranged to start and stop automatically.
During May, about 400 feet of 10" main was laid on First Parish Road at the intersection with the new 3A route. This installation proved later on to be valuable foresight, when the C. W. A. provided labor to lay the connecting link.
A short section of Marshall Avenue was being served by a small shallow line and during June a 6" main was laid to replace the shallow line and complete a loop in that section. This connection improved the fire service very much.
Analyses of the water at Bound Brook showed an excess of carbon dioxide and on June 19 a Wallace and Tiernan dry feed machine was installed to add lime to the water, the hydrate of lime combining with the carbon dioxide to precipitate calcium carbonate as a lining in the pipe. The lining prevents further corrosion in the water mains and service lines.
205
Report of Water Department
A regulator valve was set on the westerly side of the South River on the 10" main and a relief valve was set on the easterly side of the river, and on June 23, the service was turned on through this main with a pressure of 40 lbs. per sq. in. On June 27, the pressure was in- creased to 60 lbs. per sq. in. On July 10, the New Eng- land Insurance Exchange tested the system for fire stream flows, the results showing a greater quantity of water delivered, than was required. The water pressure was raised the next day to 80 lbs. per sq. in. The service in Humarock has been entirely satisfactory.
The group of wells in Beaver Dam Meadow did not appear to be yielding as much water as they should, and during July they were all cleaned. The result being approximately 20,000 G. P. D. increase.
An inspection of services was started in August and carried on for a number of weeks. This inspection should be carried to completion during the next year.
A well driving rig for small pipe, which was pur- chased during the year, was put into service in November, on the south side of Gannett Road, driving 21/2" test wells. Only a small amount of water was found at this location and the rig was moved to Lawson Meadow on the westerly side of Ann Vinal Road. At this location, coarse water bearing sand has been found to a depth of 90 feet, out of which some water has been pumped. This testing is still in progress.
Work was started at Light House Pt. on November 22, laying a 6" main. On November 27, this work was continued as a C. W. A. project, and the loop was com- pleted around the point with three additional hydrants for much needed fire protection.
206
Report of Water Department
This C. W. A. project included the extension of the main on First Parish Road, and work was started Novem- ber 27, laying a 10" main to Route 3A from Country Way.
December 14, the special Town meeting voted to authorize a bond issue of $21,500.00 to be carried by the Water Department. This bond issue, together with fur- ther grants from the C. W. A. provided for the extension of seven more mains, and on December 15, a crew of 175 men was put to work. The work continued throughout the year.
From December 27, to December 31, very cold weather prevailed, in which the thermometer dropped to -20° F., the automatic pumping system underwent a very severe test and came through in a very satisfactory manner.
The changes made during the year have proved to be in the right direction as is clearly shown by the cost analyses, and now more than ever is the erection of a one million gallon standpipe imperative.
The main to First and Second Cliffs is dangerously overloaded by the heavy rip rap at Memorial Bridge, and although the new main across Peggotty Beach has doubled the strength of this part of the system, immedi- ate thought should be given to the installation of a main to the Cliffs, over the Causeway or Gilson Road.
More ground water is very much needed and if the present prospecting is successful another source of sup- ply should be developed as soon as possible.
Respectfully submitted,
W. J. LUMBERT,
Superintendent.
