A, Newlands regarding the Trading Cove brook wa- ter and the watershed.

Examination of the Water. | The report of Chemist Newlands on the analysis of the Trading Cove |brook water, tdken from a point about a mile above the pumping station on | January 4, shows, as'he states, that mineral matter and is quite soft. The organic constituents, with the excep~ tion of the oxygen consumed, are not high, and the chlorine is about nor- mal. The number of bacteria growing on gelatin is moderately high, and organ- isms of the E. coli iype were isola ter. While the presence of these or- zanisms in small numbers is frequent- Iy only an indication of slizht drain- which might not be of any great sig- nificance, a recent Inspection of a por- tion of the drninage area indicates that contaminafion from barns and privies Is possible. The supply there- fore cannot be passed as safe for drinking purposes without purifica- tion. . The second samplewhich was taken from the brook at the new pumping station says the chemist, shows littic difference in the general characteris- tics of this supply as compared with the sample taken from a point abont a le farther up the siream. The sup- is more highiy colored than your present supply, but aside from this there is litt difference in thg chem- jcal contents of the two waters. The bacterfological results showed ftha presance of bacteria af .the E. Co type as in the other sample, indica ing contamination from some sour: This water should not be used ithout ~ puri tion. In the first sample the bacetria per e on gelatin at 20 degrees C. in 48 hours numbered 1,170, and in the sec- ond sample 920. Places: Which Menace Safety of Sup- ply. The following letter was received by Supt. Corkery from Chemist Newlands regarding his visit fo the watershed and read to the board: Middletown, Conn., J. J. Corker Supt. Norwich, ‘onn Dear §jr: On January 8, in compli. ance with your request, the writer, with you, Mr. C. E. Chandler, city en- glneer, and Dr. N. B. Lewis, city health officer, visited a portion of the drain- age area of Trading Cove brook. the proposed euxiliary water supply for the city of Norwich. The question had been raized as fo whether certaiy places on the drain- age area, now menace the safety of the supply for drinking purposes, and, if so, whether these places could be Jan. 12, 1911 Mr. Water Dept, sutisfactorily Improved so that the water might be used with safety.

WIS B 1O Silas_ Leffingwell place the sink drain empties on ta the road about a hun- dred feet from the brook. The privy is on a level ledge about seventy feet from the main brook. Both of these might be made satisfactory by the construction of a water-tight vault and a cesspool. Adjoining ihe priv and nearer the brook there is a horse shed used by patrons of the mill. The shed is on the edge of an abrupt slo The grist and saw mill extend acr the brook and the privy in this buil ing 1s directly over the brook. It was sald that this privy was rarely used, but it was evident from the appear- ance of a door which hangs over the water's edge that someone had very recently contaminated the stream. A barn in which two horses are kept located east of the mill at the edge of the brook. Manure thrown inte the barn yard must contribute a con- siderable amownt of contamination to the stream during wet weather. On the opposite side of the stream a sink drain from a house occupied by Mrs. K. Dietz is said to drain und ground to the brook. The privy located: on a slope about ten feet from the edge of the brook. Extensive changes. would be necessary at these places in order to protect the stream, and the enforcement of sanitary ulations at the mill, where a co able number of people Stop <uring the course of a year would be difficult if _not impoasible. The next place visited was about half a mile west of the grist mill, known as the Albert Witter place. The privy here is on a steep siope abont eighty feet from the brook and con= tamination of the stream during wet weather undoubtedly occurs. The privy could be placed in a mere satisfac- tory locatlon. This house is not oc- cupled at the present time. At the Albert Ross place, located on the opposite slde of the brook and about half & mile porthwest of the ‘Witter house, the barn is located on a flat ledge about a hundred feet from o tributary to the main brook, the drainage from the barn yard would Several requests were received | the water contains a small amount of | od | andoubtedly from five cuble centimeters of the wa- | age contamination from pasture land | to a small tributary of the main brook, | Appazatus Taken ands—Action on Elevators i L] have to go by a circuitous route con- siderably more than this <cistance.

During wet . weather the | privy might easily contaminate, the | stream. ‘rhe privy could be more sat- isfactorily located and with little ex- | pense. At the Daniel Lefingwell place on the south side of the brook and about a mile and a half from the pumping station, the sink drainage goes to a spring brook which -passes within a ! few feet of the house. The privy is on the edge.of a slope about sixty feet from a small tributary and about a_hundred feet from thée main brook. Drainage from the barn follows the course of the road a distance of about fwo hundred and fifty feet to the brobk. The piivy here should have a watertight vault 2nd be moved a little farther from the slope. The sink drainage should go to a Cesspool and the brook near the house sn0UM be piped to the brow of the hill nortn of the house. If the manure pile at the barn is covered and kept dry, there should be little danger of con- tamination from this source. The Maplewood and two other small cemeteries located on the <rainage area are, I believe, not near enough seriously to menace the supply. In addition to the sanitary inspec- tion of the above places, two sam- ples of the brook water submitted by Dr. N. B. Lewis have been examined and reports on these are submitted with. It will be seem that in cases intestinal organisms of the baelilus coli type were found in small numbers. Basing my opinion on these results and the fact that at some of the places ed direct pollution of the stream was evident, while at others there is more or less contami- nation of the stream during wet weather, 1 believe this supply should not be used under the present condi- tions without purification. Regarding the advisability or prac- ticability of improving sanitary- con- | ditions on the drainage area I believe | that those places where direct con- tamination of the stream is evident should be eliminated. More stringent i measures would reduce but wouvld by |no means elimindte the danger from {the use of a small running stream éraining an inhabited area. 5 When a stream is impounded with a dam and a large reservoir formed { where the action of sedimentation, { sunlight, and other purifying influ- ences act on the water for a consider- lable od of time before it reaches umer, chance contamination tream does not usuaily pre- rious menace to the public With the use of a small run- stream, how conditions are -nt.

JAMES A. NEWLANDS, Chemist State Board of Health. Necessity. Feasibility and Cost. | Tn regard to the necessity, feasibil- {1ty ana cost of purifying the Trading| Sove brook water, as asked ® for by | Corkery, Chemist Newlands wrote as follow Mr. J. J. Corkery, Supt. Water Dept, Norwich, Conn.: Dear Si to your ques- | tions -eg necessity, feasibil- ity and cost of purifying water from Trading Cove brook by treatment wit calcium ‘hypochlorite, as it was pro- posed for the Yantic river water. 1 have the following to report: . le Trading Cove brook is by no so grossly polluted as the Yan- river, there is sufficient dralnage contamination reaching the stream to m its use, without some form of purification, rather dangerous, consid- ering the fact that the water Is to bs i pumped directly from the stream. | " By the elimination of certain sources of contamination or\the drainage area ang the construction of a large reser- voir where the action of sedimenta- tion, sunlight, and other purifying in- | fiuences would ordinarily care for el contamination of the stream, ter could be used without fur- | means r purification. Such extensive i rges, however, would be prohibi- {tive for a temporary supply, and a | permanent supply can.probably be ob- | tained where the cost of pumping may be _eliminated. | As an emergency measure the use | of calcium hypochiorite is very satis- | factory, and it is the most economical | method possible where filtration is the ot alternative. However, if this supply is to be used for perhaps one hundred and fifty days in the year, as has been suggested, and this wers to be continued for two or three years, or until a permanent additional sup- ply is obtained. one or two factors | would have to be considered. A running stream varies consider- ably In its orgamic content and tur- bidity, both of which affect the action of the hypochlorite . solution on the bacteria. A water high in organic ontent will sometimes deviop an ob- jectionabla but hariniess odor when reatsd with hypochlorite in amounts sufficfent properly to remove the bac teria. T s of Do consequence the case of treating an emergency sup- { onl { ply, but there would undoubtedly be cousiderable objection to the use of water with a noticeable odor for more short time, Such results might | never be expe sed in treating the ading Cove brook water., buf this could only be proven by experience. The combination of rapia filtration end hypochlorite treatment. the for- mer removing -suspended matter, the v oxidizin burning™up the hac- [ is an ideal arrangement if the cost ‘for filtration is Justified, and as much smaller amounts of hypochlorite solution can.be used the chance for getting odors in the water is greatly reduced. In the present casey however, 1 believe it would be advisable te in- stall a hypochlorite plant first, so ar- ranged that filtration may be added later if found advisable. If satisfac- tory results can be obtained in. this way the cost of filtration will be elim- inated. Recarding the cost of hypochlorite treatment for short periods, I would say that if it were necessary to pump more than ten hours per day the total cost would be abouf $450 per month. Thig would include personal services: fna two -assistants, use of media, chemicals and apparatus for labora- tory work, but not incidental expenses for ol stove and other apparatus De required at the sta- ht be lowersd by about if enough water could An-ten h-:--m,mply the 7 ™ could iat 2 E ; J"fi "I was'taken last August with a vere stomach .

After hearing the reports of the chemist, the water board voted that the apparatus at the Falls mill, whici had been made ready for use on the Yantic river water, should be taken to the Trading Cove brook station at once, and have everything made ready to treat the water there. No water will be pumped, it was decided, until it was necessary, as the buard sees its way clear to furnish the. present supply for thirty days or more. This can be done, nolwithstanding that the pumping at Mohegan lake will have t be stopped inside of that time. It is eight weeks since the pumping was started there, and the water has drop- ped in that time 101 inches. There remains five feet, but It is intended only to draw off two and one-half feet more. Danger from Low Running Brook. In conversation with- Superintendent Corkery, Chemist Newlands said that the board could remove all sources of contamination, but there would still remain the running brook, with w ter pumped directly therefrom, as continual source of particularly at a low level When a brook can be found at a high level where water will not have to be pump- ed, a running brook can be used with safety, but he would never advise using 'a running brook from a low point where it takes the drainage for a long distance. There will riot be required the same strensth of solution that would have been used at the Falls mill, as the contamination is not So greaf. Many who have visited the pumping station heve considered the brook as having very fine water and many have sam- pled the water therc to show their faith in it. Test of the Pumps. Another test of the pumps was made on Monday and everything worked to perfection. The representative from (he pump factory, Superintendent Cor- kery, Engineer Palmer, and an elec- trician, were in attendance when En- gineer Stephenson started the pumps. The directed connected pumps were used, being operated singly and hoth together, and they were fine. The same tests as used previously were made and it was shown that as far as the pumps are concerned everything is ready to start. 3y actually counting the revolutions of the pump it was fouwd they made 56 to the minute, which would pump 300,600 gallons of water in 24 hours. This for both pumps would mean a million gallons. Two revolution count- ers have been secured and one will be placed on each pump, so that it can be told just how they are working. The measurement Monday morning of the rainfall of Friday night showed it amounted to .15 of an inch, while for the day before it was .25 of an inc or a total of 2.90 for the month. This is not up to the average, and quite a little more is_looked for in the next two weeks. Should the last half of the month prove as wet as the first half, the water department will be happy. a contamination, | Incidents in Society Miss Fiorence Northrop has return- ed from & visit with Miss Harriet Cranska of Moosup, Mrs. Will L.
