Strong opposition to laying at this time a new, separate sanitary of sewers in the Piney Branch section of Mount Pleasant, at a cost estimated in one study to amount to $6,000,000, is registered in a report by the Sewer Committee of the Washington Board of Trade The project has been urged &s & means of preventing pollution of Rock Creek and waters in the Piney Branca Valley west of Sixtesnth street, it is pointed out “ The huge expenditure, however. the trade body committee contends. would not. eliminate poljution of Rock Cree: because of continued drainage from sections of Maryland, which for years will not be served by interceptor sewers Plan Held Uneconomical. While elimination of pollution in Rock Creek is desirable, the huge ex- penditure at this time is not econom- ical because it alone could not bring the desired result, 1t is declared by Rufus § Lusk, chairman of the trade body committec. The matter was before a congres- sional committee last session, and like- 1y will be considered 2 this year, An alternative plan, seriously consider- ed last year, would have provided for eonstruction of an extension of the combination sewer in Piney Branch down to Rock Creek—in the park, but decision was postponed. The cost of such an extension has been estimated | to be about $600,000. el "an extension would be con- structed so it could be incorporated in the $6,000,000 sanitary systemn if that is | later laid down, it is explained.
