Gaithersburg

Obstacles facing relocation of
the Gaithersburg sewer line at the
site of proposed Rock Creek
dam near Rockville have been by
passed by the Washington Sub
urban Sanitary Commission
which will start construction of
the sewer from the Gaithersburg
end.
Meanwhile, the Commission
will seek to introduce a bill at
next years General Assembly en-
abling the Commission to spend
storm drainage funds on reloca-
ton of sewer lines.
Obstacles to construction of the
sewer at the dam site include
lack of authority to spend storm
drainage funds to move the sewer
and absence of a commitment
by the county that it will buy
sufficient acreage to accommo-
date backed-up waters.
Since the latter will take at
least one year, a Commission
spokesman said last week, the
Commission has decided to start
building from the her en- d..
Rights of : way negotiations are
under way, he said.
While the sewer is known as
the Gaithersburg sewer, it actu-
ally terminates at Washington
Grove, sister city to Gaithersburg.
The Commission proposes to in.
stall pumps at its Muddy Branch
sewage treatment station south
of Gaithersburg to pump the city's
sewage over ridge to Washing

Most School Candidates
Back Teacher Pay Hike

Eighteen school board cam
didates recognize the need for
hiking teachers pay, but only
three of them are uncondi-
tionally in favor of the scale
proposed by the teachers or
ganiZation.
Questions of pay were included
on QUESTIONABLE submitted to
the candidates by the Montgom-
cry County Educational Associa.
ton. Their full answers are re.
ported in the latest issue Of the
MCEA publication, The Educator.
They show that virtually
all the candidates rate the
need for recruiting and re-
tanning tOp-notch teachers as
a high priority item.
But they show, also. that a
large majority want to study the
problem further before commit.
ting themselves to any specific
pay plan.
Zone candidate did not re-
spond. He is Col. George A
Moore, fourth district, who has
not actively campaigned for his
election.)
The MEGA proposal calls for a
scale ranging from S4500 to $4,000
for teachers with bachelors de
gree, and an extra $500 for those
with a masters degree,
Current bachelors scale runs
from $4,000 to $4,000.
