said the company could be
formed If necessary at half that
figure.

Sewage
Program Urged

Ellis S. Tisdale, the new d.
rector Of the Interstate Commits
sion on the Potomac River Basin,
would like to see a compre-
Ihensive sewage disposal plan
developed for the Washington
AREA.
Every day we see new build
ling developments taking form in
the area" said Mr.. Tisdale. "The
commission should cooperate
with other area planning agen-
lcies in order to keep abreast Of
the sewage needs Of these new
developments.
mot that we haven't come a
long way in the last 10 years"
he said. But we need to go
farther in the next decade"
The new director. q sanitary
engineer for 40 years. noted the
progress already made In clean
ling UP the Potomac.
He cited the expansion OF
treatment facilities planned by
the District. Many towns along
the Potomac have built or are
building sewage treatment facili-
ties, and the commission has
been successful in bringing in
|dustry representatives together
to form a pollution abatement
program that has been effective
Throughout the basin.
Mr.. Tisdale, who replaces
Edwin r. Cotton as commission
director. hopes to see the metro
politan plan perfected In the
next 10 years.
I'VE must remember" he said
that people constantly are NOV
ing into the suburbs surrounding
Washington, and it Is absolutely
necessary to keep raw sewage
from entering the Potomac River
from these new suburban de-
|velopments."
He believes the commission
also should aim at q broadened
water resources program for the
entire Potomac Basin and should
use more visual aids to put the
program across to residents.
He believes that the commits
sion should give its support to
various watershed councils. He
also thinks annual reports should
be made on pollution throughout
the basin as q progress check
and to inform residents Of con-
ditions.
we must work toward recon-
CLING the conflicting interests
in water use and reach the best
possible compromise to prevent
floods. build recreation areas,
prevent pollution and soil ero-
sion and, in short, to use the
water Of the Potomac River for
the best interest Of the rs mil
lion people in the watershed"
A native Of Massachusetts, and
"a graduate in sanitary engineer
ing Of Massachusetts, Institute Of
Technology, Mr.. Tisdale Is no
stranger to the Potomac. He
formerly was chief engineer for
the West Virginia State Health
Department and for a number OF
years worked with the Ohio River

mission.
The work in the Ohio Valley
formed the basis for future
