Editorial
SPECIAL SESSION
GOVERNOR GORDON'S action !

M
GOVERNOR CORDONS action in calling a special
session Of the Senate is a good one. It would have been sur
prsng to most citizens if some such step had not been taken,
realizing that things are at a standstil, and that conditions
were likely to worsen.
In THE NATIONAL government a stalemate is bad
enough. yet the several departments Of government continue
to junction because Of the clearly defined separation Of po-
wers. But in these parts, where there IS 50 much to be done
and where the Governor is really the core Of governmental
function, and disruption Of the harmonious relationship be-
tween the legislature and the governors office can create
headaches no end.
AMONG bills to be introduced and discussed at
this special session Of the Senate are the Virgin Islands Code,
a new tax law and possibly the name Of Leon Mawson viii
be- submitted for confirmation as Commissioner Of Public
Safety. ssvbs
THIS GALL of the special session also brings % mind
the unfortunate limitation on the length Of the sessions aRse
haps it is true that some cities and towns in Connecticut
for example,, can transact all their business for the other IL
months. But things are different here, and by their very ma.
tme preclude sessionssO short that much IS left undone. On.
the other hand we certainly do not indorse an endless, long
drawn out series Of meetings Just for the sake Of meeting.
EVERYONE HOPES that this call Of the Senate in spe-
caI session is the beginning Of the end Of the s~tagnadon; that
both sides will about face and engage in the give-and-take
without which no adequate solution may be accomplished.

Integroted Sewer Project
To Aid Areas Growth

Both public and private facil-
tiles supply portions Of Fairfax
County with water and sewer
service.
The biggest single project is
the county's $50 million integral
ed sewer system.
Now half complete and sched-
uled for full completion by the
summer Of 1857. it is designed
to serve roughly a 70-square-
mile area in the suburban sec
ton of Fairfax County closest
to Washington. The total county
area is 407 square miles.
The start of the system was
the installation of two main
trunk sewerS-the Holmes Run
and Trips Run trunks-by the
Federal Government between
1912 and 1914. This was a Lam
ham Act project. and it marked
the beginning of a new era in
Fairfax County, where septic
tanks and privies were the main
sanitation facilities in years
past.
These two sewers made Serv-
ice available through 30-square-
mile belt of the county nearest
Washington-from Falls Church
Evening star. [volume] (Washington, D.C.) 1854-1972, 1956-04-14

connections have been made
with the Virginia Water Co. to
improve service. Virginia has
been negotiating to buy An
Mandate.
Together. Alexandria. Virginia
and Annandale serve close
to $4,000 county residents.
Other Private Firms
Other private companies in
clude Fairfax Hydraulics, which
serves about. 10000 customers
in the southeast section of the
county. 1t also gets water from
Virginia Water Co.
Some of the private companies
serve only a few dozen families.
Most of the private companies
were started by developers at
the time they built subdivisions.
A majority of these smaller
firms rely on deep wells for wa
ter.
With so many different water
companies serving the county,
there is a variety of rates. For
10000 gallons a quarter, they
run from $40 for the cheapest
to S1725 for the most expensive.
The county still hasn't given
up the idea of establishing an
integrated public water system
sooner or later. The new Board
OF County Supervisors has left
the door open by making further
in this direction.

Michnick- DiMuio
Has 3 Projects
Now Under Wuy

The firm of Michnick- DiMaio.
which has been building in the
Washington area for five years,
has three residential develop
ments currently under way in
nearby Virginia.
Almost completed is the nearly
400-home Lynnbrook project in
the Springfield area of Fairfax
County. Some 300 homes in the
160-acre development have al
ready been sold, the builders
said today.
The firms Brookville Subdivi-
sion on fancy avenue in Alex
andria was begun in 1853. A total
of 100 houses is projected for the
80-acre development.
Newest subdivision of the firm,
which has Offices at 1920 K
street NV, is Layton Hall. near
the town of Fairfax. This de-
velopment contains about ia
acres. The firm says it plans
about 1870 houses for it.

system of its own. Nineteen
separate companies - four of
them owned by towns-serve
II per cent Of the
county.
Last November the county pro-
posed a $50 million bond issue
to establish a public system sup
piled from the Potomac River
but the voters rejected the idea.
Four Municipal Systems
The four municipal systems
serving parts of the county are
those Of Falls Church. Vienna,
Herndon and town of Fairfax.
Falls Church gets its water
from Dalecarlia Reservoir in the
District, At present, it comes to
Falls Church via Arlington but
a new 36-inch line is being in
stalled by Falls Church directly
from Dalecarlia that will give
the city 10 times more water
than it now uses. This is ex-
pected to result in further ex-
pansion of Falls Church water
service in surrounding areas OF
Fairfax County.
The Herndon and Vienna Sys-
TENS are supplied by deep wells.
The town OF Fairfax system
also is supplied by wells at pres
ent, but plans have been an
nounced to build a reservoir on
Goose Greek in Loudoun County
for new source of supply.
The biggest private systems
operating IN Fairfax County are
those of the interlocking Alex
andrla and Virginia Water Cos,
which have a reservoir on
Occoquan Creek at the south
end Of the county. Work has
started on new dam to make
the Occoquan Reservoir Virgin
las largest source of water
supply. According to engineers,
it will back up roughly 10 billion
gallons Of water.
The Annandale Water Co. is
another big private supplier. 1t
buys some of its water from the
Virginia Water Co. and some
from Falls Church. In the past,
Annandale has been beset by
summertime shortages but new

Years Residence Needed
For Vote in Viroiniu

Many residents moving to
Northern Virginia from Washing
ton have the opportunity to vote
for the first time.
Under Virginia law, a new
resident may vote after living
in the State one year, the
county or city six months and

New residents need not wait
until they live in the State a
year before they register, how
ever. They may sign up to vote
in advance of the first general
election that occurs after they
have lived in the State one year.
A $3.50 poll tax must be paid
each year to vote in Virginia.

cember is, 1858. to develop the
integrated sewer system.
The first SO million was spent
to refund the sanitary district
No. l bond issue and make that
system the core of the new in
Itegrated Setup. The rest is for
I199 miles of additional sewers
and three new sewage disposal
plants.
About IS miles of these new
sewers have been installed, &C
.cording TO County Engineer
Harry Hale, and all three sewage
disposal plants are now under
construction. These are at PIN
nit Run. Little Hunting Greek
and Doeue Creek. Some of the
county's new sewers will dis
charge into the Alexandria sys-
TEN, and be treated at the big
new Alexandria plant due for
completion this summer.
Annual Charge S39
Only those persons in homes
connected to the county sewer
system pay for it The annual
charge is 500. The charge for
new connections is 81 a front
foot. plus $40 availability
charge. The minimum charge
is S240 and the maximum is $440
for a single connection. The
owner also pays the cost of in
stalling a home connection to
the county pipe.
Other public sewer systems in
the county are the town systems
of Vienna. Herndon and Fair
fax. There are also some small,
private systems in isolated areas
not seryiceable by the county
system. The county has taken
over several private systems at
the owners request.

plant. The bond issue was voted

Sewer Demand Great
The county soon became aware
however. that all its sewer needs
weren't in sanitary district No. /
The demand for sewers came
from all directions. A half-dozen
sanitary districts were estab-
hshed-but most were too small
to support independent sewer
systems.
Engineers were hired to make
a survey. and it was concluded
the county should develop an
integrated sewer system instead
Of trying to proceed with sepa-
rate sanitary districts.
