Three formal complaints have been

were abated.
Seventeen 4S-hour notices have been
served during the month. In each case
the recipient proceeded to abate the
nuisance. The case in court continued
from January was postponed twice.
Finally the case came to trial and the
man was fined S25 and costs.
Fourteen notices to connect to the
sewer within thirty days have been
served and work in the majority of
cases is progressing already.
Two builders without permits have
been ordered to obtain the same and
have done so.
In the reports Of the sanitary inspec-
| tors IL will be noticed that the num-
Der of nuisances abated is larger than
the number reported. This discrep-
! ancy is accounted for by the large
amount Of back orders finished up.
Considerable time has been expended
during the month towards putting the
pig pens into sanitary condition and
while the work is not finished by any
means yet the improvement is quite
| noticeable. All the pigs have been Or
dered out Of Pauoa valley and with
one or two exceptions have already
been removed.
Kalihi and Nuuanu valleys have each
two or three pig pens in localities
where the water supply cannot be con-
taminated. All other pens are gone.
All swine have been removed from
the Palama district and especially
along the Kalihi camp road. The re-
moval Of the pens from Iwilei will
complete the work. The localities now
approved are those Of Paakea at Ka-
moiliilii; Kalia, between King street
