FILTRATION PLANT
 DELAY SUGGESTED
Maian Recommends Postpone ment of Reconstruction Project

City Engineer Philip A. Aerian to- day recommended that no steps be taken toward reconstruction Of the sewage filtration plant until . check-up has been completed to de- termine to what extent the entrance of storm water into the sanitary sewerage is taxing the system and what can be done to remedy the situation.
 Criticism was directed at this city for it's failure to make progress on the sewage problem in the annual report of the state water commis- sion. Answering the complaint, Mayor Paonessa said he would not sanction any expenditures until the city of Hartford had worked out a solution Of the stream pollution problem. The city engineers sug- gestion that 8 check-up be made promises further delay in opera tions.
 Merriam states six miles of penetrated macadam were laid last year and four streets were surfaced with waterbound macadam, less ex- pensive but unsatisfactory type which has not been abandoned Nine streets were accepted and eight graded after acceptance.
 A suggestion is made that arr arrangements be made to collect. cinders at factories and store them for use as road material for outly- ing sections. Through arrangements made with truck owners and the tax collector, t3l, 800 in tax money was taken in, owners of trucks being permitted to work out their tax accounts on city jobs.
 The department is soon to ask authority to build 8 structure 6Ox3a feet for offices and workshops. The buildings now standing in the city storeyards are inadequate, it is ex- plained.
