REPORT TO CITY PLAN
ON SEWAGE SETTLING
fContlnued from oaRs /,

With regard to the first point, the
larger basin is designed for a set
Ting period of six hours and the
smaller for a settling period of three
hours. The amount of precipita-
ton resulting from a settling three
hours is not rs great as which would
result from the longer period but it
is not very much more than half as
great #. The longer period is favored
as being conservative as promising
more satisfactory operation during
times of occasional overload. Act
ual rates of disposition correspond
ing with the respective detention
periods proposed might be quoted
from various tests, but the results
are not consistent or conclusive. In
general, however, weak sewage, that
is. sewage which contains small por-
tons of suspended solids, does not
require as long a detention period
on thicker sewage.
The second point of difference
arises from the fact that at a GER
tain predetermined rate OF flow in
the interceptor, sewage will begin
to pass directly to the river with
out passing through the settling ba-
sins. During severe storms it would
be useless to put sewage throug hthe
oStIAAAA6 fOcLC4Alo Eau IN YUAN
tity would be so great that very lit
tie settling would occur. In dry
weather periods, naturally, all of the
sewage should go through the basin
for it's partial publication. During a
light rain the sewers will carry
storm water. If the basins are made
adequate merely for the dry wealth
or flow, without any margin of ca
pacity, then the slightest rain will
produce an excess so diluted sewage
which at the start will be mathe-
matically just as foul as the drv
weather sanitary flow; that is, it will
be sewage of maximum impurity,
and will be discharged directly to
the river. This sort of pollution will
occur whenever there is a slight
excessive percolation of ground wa
ter or, for n reason or other. an
excessive amount of sanitary flow.
In arriving at the larger of the
two estimates for size of settling
basin it was argued that even oc-
casional pollution of the river wa
ter to this exent would be objec-
tionable and it was, therefore, de-
termined to recommend d size of a
basin which would prevent such pol
luton. There is a limit beyond
which the size should not be carried
In ordinary operation of a settling
basin, the pollution is only decreas-
ed about two-thirds; that is. the sus-
pended solids are about two-third
removed; hence it would certainly
not be Objectionable to discharge
to the river diluted sanitary sewage
containing one-third the solid of
straight sewage. In other words it
would be permissible to bypass
Perth Amboy evening news., 1923-08-15

storm flows the volume of which ex-
ceeded double the volume Of sam
tary sewage. 1t is permissible to
go ever further than this, since the
moderate storm flow pollution AZ
only occasional; and the basis finally
adopted was that of by-passing
storm flows in excess of that guam
tity which was equal to the sani-
tary flow. implying a so per cent
relative content of suspended solids.
The adoption of this policy natur-
ally makes the basin twice as large
as it otherwise would be and the
longer detention period proposed has
a similar further effect.
There is no absolute requirement
as between the two proposals. 1t is
believed that the larger plan is safer.
more adequate and less likely to
cause protest if, at any time, the
supervision and maintenance are less
than perfect. On the other hand,
the smaller project gives something
which is very much better than the
discharge of raw sewage directly in
to the river. 1t is important, how
ever, that the installation be so ar
ranged that if found unsatisfactory
it can be conveniently extended.
Moreover, provision for expansion
should be made because of the prob
ability of sedimentation disposal of
additional sewage from nearby areas
at this point. The capacity of the
interceptor on the basis herein pro-
posed will considerably exceed the
capacity of the settling basin con-
templated.
For a six hour detention period
a normal velocity of sewage through
the basins is A-inch per second and
this requires a length of travel of
450 feet, which might be reduced to
400 feet without any serious risk.
For the three hour detention period
the length of 100 feet, understood to
be proposed by the plan Of the city
engineer, implies a velocity of DILL
inches per second. This low velocity
is proper with the short detention
period contemplated. If a longer
period is eventually found necessary,
the 100 foot basin will have to be
heightened or very much lower vel
ocity accepted. The latter will do no
harm; in fact il will be advantageous
from a publication standpoint; but
1t implies low capacity from the
basin, that Is the plant will not take
care of a large quantity of sewage.
For entire fexibility 1t would. there
fore, be desirable so as to arrange
and locate the initial basin that it

MATAWAN, Aug. 15.-Matters

Company from this borough, was
taken up last night at the meet
ing of the council, when Mayor Will
liam H.. Sutphin read a communi-
cation from the company requesting
permission from the borough for
the removal of the rails.

FRANCHISE ACCORDING 10 Councilman
Ozark also required the company 10
pay each year to the borough the
sum OF $3.50 after a period OF twen-
ty years from the time the cars were
placed in operation. MIR. Clark de-
clared the trolley company owes the
borough the total of $500, $3.50 for
the year 1922 and $3.50 for the year
$1923, this money was to have been
paid in advance but was overlooked
by the council. The matter was turn
ed over to Borough Attorney Jacob
r. v. M. Lefferts to investigate.
The attorney vas authorized to
make application at once to the
Board of Freeholders to have con-
crete paving laid through Main street
this borough next summer.
An ordinance raising $4,000 addi-
tional to the $4,000 already appro-
priated for the cutting through of
Broad street was adopted on third
reading.
The contract for the extending of
the street in a southerly direction
was awarded to Samuel Brewer. The
work is to be completed within a
period of ninety days.
Complaint was made by Council
man Stephen G. Thompson that
Barney's when moving from the
property recently purchased from
them by the borough removed not
only the barn but other outbuildings
which were the property of the
borough. Councilman Thompson
