REPORT


OF


WATER COMMISSIONERS.


The Water Commissioners herewith submit their annual re- port for the year ending December 31st, 1899.


The pipe systems have been extended and renewed, asrequired, during the year. The low-service system has been extended on Fairview avenue and Walnut street, and pipes have been laid in- to Walnut court. On the high-service pipes have been laid in Robbins road, Hawthorne avenue and Gray street (Atwood ave- nue). This latter system of pipe, with its reducing valve, located at the head of Walnut street, gives us a double reducing system and a second loop between the mains on Park and Massachusetts avenues. Other slight additions to the low-service system were required when connections were made with the metropolitan Sys- tem, and about 50 feet of cement-lined pipe have been replaced by iron pipe on Broadway, where the drains of the Highway De- partment required the lowering of the water pipes.


As stated in our last report, the town was admitted to the Metropolitan Water Dstrict on January 31st, 1899, and the promises as to the times when the town would be supplied with water have all been fulfilled.


The several details will be given below under their respective headings.

PIPE EXTENSIONS AND RENEWALS.


In all, there have been laid 31.8 ft. of 10-in. and 4945.8 ft. of 6-in pipe, a total of 4977.6 ft .; 10 hydrants and 16 gates were set, and 2 old hydrants were removed from the low-service system.


There have been added this year 87 services, 52 connected with the high, and 35 with the low service. Four services have been transferred from the low to the high and one from the high to the low service. There have also been added 7 services for flushing sewers. 492 ft. of 4-in. cement lined pipe have been re- moved from Brattle street to make way for the pipes of the Metropolitan System. The following tables show the extensions in detail:

This pipe was laid dry in 1897 in anticipation of a regrading of the street in 1898. It is very desirable that the regrading be completed as soon as possible, so that this large pipe may be placed in service, thus insuring better fire protection to the lower part of the Town.


There are now in hand applications for pipe extensions on the following streets:


Eastern Avenue, Hawthorne Avenue, Grand View Road, Pine Ridge Road, and Forest Street.

REPORT OF WATER COMMISSIONERS.


Total of both services: 32.33 miles of pipe, 317 hydrants, and 252 gates. The pipe laid dry in Broadway and not used is not in- cluded.


In addition to the above there are 3,436 feet of smaller pipes, 2 in. to 14 in., which are laid in places where hydrants were not needed and the amount of water desired was small.


The details of the cost of the pipe extensions will be found in the Report of the Superintendent. Records and sketches show- ing the location of the pipes and connections have been made and arranged in convenient form for use and reference.


QUALITY AND QUANTITY OF WATER.


The high-service supply was drawn from all of the wells ex- cept two, which were found to give very much more iron than the others. The ordinary poor quality of this water was rendered much worse by the very dry season.


The low-service supply was taken in great part from the brook direct, and was as good as could be expected.


It is believed that the Metropolitan water we are now using is of excellent quality and sufficient in quantity, and that there is every reason to think that when the large storage reservoir is completed its quality will be even better.


On account of the very dry season just passed the town may indeed be considered fortunate in its admission to the Metro- politan District. Had the low-service supply not been connected early in the season, we would undoubtedly have experienced a water famine.


ADMISSION TO THE METROPOLITAN SYSTEM.


An account of the action leading to the admission of the town to the Metropolitan District was given in the report of last year; the following additions are made to place the entire matter on re- cord :


On January 31st, 1899, the Metropolitan Water Board passed


208


REPORT OF WATER COMMISSIONERS.


the following vote, admitting the town to the Metropolitan Water District :-


"Voted, That the town of Arlington having applied to be ad- mitted into the Metropolitan Water District, under the provisions of Chapter 488 of the Acts of the year 1895 and Acts amenda- tory thereto, and having paid the sum of thirty thousand dollars, that being the sum required by the Metropolitan Water Board to be paid by said town upon its admission into the Metropolitan Water District, that is to say: having paid in cash the sum of fifteen thousand dollars and having conveyed to the Common- wealth a circular lot of land in said Arlington, with the stand pipe thereon, together with certain pipes and other property, and the right to use other pipes, the same being received in lien of a pay- ment of an additional fifteen thousand dollars, be admitted into the Metropolitan Water District, and that said town shall be furnished with water on the terms prescribed by said act of 1895, for the cities and towns named in Section 3 thereof."


As soon as practicable, plans were made to extend the Metro- politan water mains into Arlington, and land was purchased for a pumping station at the head of Brattle court, near the Boston & Maine R. R.


The system, now in place, is as follows: A 20-in. main con- necting with a 24-in. main in West Medford passes under Mystic river and along Medford street to Massachusetts avenue, thence along Massachusetts avenue to Brattle street, thence down Brat- tle street and down Brattle court to the pumping station. A 16-in. high-pressure main returns alongside the main in Brattle court and Brattle street and connects with our high-pressure sys- tem on Massachusetts avenue, near the head of Brattle street. These Brattle street pipes having been laid in place of our 4-in. low-service pipe required its removal, and in its stead the town was allowed an additional connection to the Metropolitan main, near the head of Dudley street.


209


REPORT OF WATER COMMISSIONERS.


The low-service system is now supplied through a 12-in. con- nection with the Metropolitan main at each of the three follow- ing locations: Medford street at head of Parallel street, Massa- chusetts avenue at head of Medford street, and at head of Brattle street; and through an 8-in. connection placed on Brattle street at head of Dudley. With this 20-in. main as a feeder, and the various connections allowed us, no pipes larger than 12-in. diame- ter will be required on our low-service system.


The pipe in Medford street was competent in June and water was turned on to the low-service system on June 30th, 1899, through the connection at the head of Medford street. The water was turned on to the connection at Parallel street in October. During the summer and fall the mains on Massachusetts avenue and Brattle street were laid.


The proposed connection of the Metropolitan high-service main with our high-service at the head of Brattle street required moving the reducing valve, formerly at the head of Forest street, to the head of Brattle street. The expense of moving this valve and of making all connection with our mains was borne by the Metropolitan Water Board.


The unprecedented increase in demand for, and cost of, pump- ing machinery, during the past year, delayed, the Metropolitan Water Board very much in carrying out their proposed plans for a new pumping station. At the suggestion of your Water Board it was finally decided to fit up a temporary pumping plant as soon as possible, transferring such part of our plant as was available to the temporary building constructed on the pumping station lot. For the machinery thus transferred the town received $2,500.00.


On January 1st, 1900, the pump at the temporary station was started, and on January 2d the remaining pump at East Lexing- ton was stopped. Since this time water has been supplied to the high service from the Metropolitan mains. During several weeks, as was to be expected, the high-service water was roily, due to a


210


REPORT OF WATER COMMISSIONERS.


stirring up of the sediment in the pipes by the reversal of the cur- rent, but this is only a temporary trouble.


The Metropolitan Water Tax for the year 1899 was $2,889.15, on which a rebate was allowed, at the rate of $12.00 per million gallons, for water supplied from our sources up to June 1st, 1899, amounting to $1,042.80, thus making the net tax $1,846.35.


The assessments for the following years cannot be given exact- ly, but are estimated to be about as follows:


1900 $4,200 00


1901. 5,500 00


1902 6,800 00


1903 7,600 00


1904. 8,900 00


The rebate on our 1900 assessment is estimated at about $910.00.


PUMPING STATION.


This now contains only the boiler, suction pipes, and air pump used in connection with the driven wells. Table I. gives the pumping statistics for the year 1899, with appended columns at the right giving corresponding statistics for the years 1897 and '98. It will be seen that the quantity of water used is decidedly on the increase, and is much more than it should be.


STAND PIPE.


According to a vote of the town at its annual town meeting the stand pipe, with a circular lot of land 80 ft. in diameter, was sold to the Commonwealth, and it is now cared for by the Metro- politan Water Board.


RESERVOIR.


The reservoir has received the usual cleaning and attention.


211


REPORT OF WATER COMMISSIONERS.


WATER METERS.


On June 19th, 1899, new rules governing the use of water for other than domestic purposes were made, for the purpose of more equally assessing the charges for water and also for the preven- tion of unnecessary waste of water. To this end it was decided that all water for field irrigation, green-houses or hot-houses, hot- beds and wash-houses must be metered, and notices were issued fixing new meter rates for such purposes, which may be found in the Rules of the Water Works appended hereto. At the same time it was decided best not to meter water for domestic purposes and to limit the use of lawn hose to three hours per day, as is done in most communities to prevent the useless waste of water. 54 meters were added this year; 66 are now in use.

STOCK.


There is on hand, in addition to small quantities of pipe and fittings of all sizes and necessary tools and fixtures for repairing and carrying on the works, about 3,000 feet of 6-in pipe, 1,536 ft. 8-in. pipe, 600 ft. 10-in. pipe, and 3,000 ft. service-pipe.


RECOMMENDATIONS.


We make the following recommendations:


That all the cement-lined pipes on the low-service be replaced by iron pipes at as early a date as possible, beginning at the points where the pipes are giving the most trouble and where the pres- sure is highest. This is especially desirable to make available a possible increase of about 10 lbs. per square inch when the reser- voir at Spot Pond shall have been completed.


That the water pipes be extended according to the established rules.


That the reservoir be maintained at its present level and used, if necessary, as a reserve or auxiliary water supply, the grounds around it to be laid out as a park whenever funds are available for such purpose.


Respectfully submitted,


GEORGE W. LANE, PETER SCHWAMB, GEORGE P. WINN, Water Commissioners.
