ment.

gories general annual employees

nual employees range from $1,000

ForConlbined System
OF Sewage Disposal

Construction bids for the COM
bined sewage disposal system
to serve all Of Alexandria and
portions Of Fairfax County will
be received by the Alexandria
Sanitation Authority at 2 pm.
September !.
The bid date was fixed by the
authority at meeting last night.
after formal approval was given
plans and specifications for the
sos million project.
AS soon as the construction
offers are received, the authority
plans to advertise the necessary
amount Of bonds for sale to
cover the entire project. Septem-
Der 20 Is the date the authority
expects to award bids for both
the sale Of bonds and construc-
ton.
For bidding purposes, the en-
tire project is divided into three
main sections intercepting and
trunk sewers, pumping stations
and treatment plant land into
nine sub-sections. Contractors
may bid on any one or all Of
the sections and subsections.x
One s4.5 Million Project.
| The largest single project is
the disposal plant general con-
tract work. which is expected to
cost nearly $4.5 billion.
Ten years of work was brought
to q climax with the formal APP
proval Of final plans and the
advertising Of construction bids.
It was In 1914 that Alexandria
first authorized the engineering
firm of Greeley & Hansen to pre-
pare plans for q sewage disposal
system. Those plans were re-
vised after q regional sewage
survey Of northern Virginia
showed that Alexandria and
Fairfax could save about So mil
lion In initial construction costs
by building a combined facility
It has taken lawsuits, legisla-
ton and thousands Of meetings
to line everything up for con-
struction of the long-awaited
| project. Alexandra currently
empties all Of It's sewage into the
Potomac River untreated, and
the current Fairfax plant Is not
large enough to accommodate
the county's growth.
Share In Costs.
Alexandria's share Of the
project cost Is about ST. million,
| and Fairfax County's share Is
close to $3.4 million. The entire
project. however. is to be fl
nanced by the Alexandra SAM
itation Authority bond issue with
Fairfax paying It's share In an
nual installments. plus operating
costs.
/ The authority plans to hold q
public hearing the third week in
August on proposed rates to fl
nance the program. After the
hearing, the rates are subject
to approval Of the State Cor
poration Commission. The au-
thority expects to have the rate
schedule ready for publication
the second week in August.
