COLUMBIA DAMAGE
FROM HURRICANES
LISTED AT $4,000

Columbia-Before the U. S.
Corps of Engineers at Washing
ton, N. C. May 2, in public hear
ings for hurricane and flood con-
troll, the town of Columbia was
represented by Mayor Paul l..
Liver1man, and Accountant Julian
L. Poston, who estimated hurri-
cane and flood damage to the
town approximating $3.50, 900, list
ing disease prevention by innocu-
lation, water publication and mos
quito control; damage to munich
pal sewer system, buildings, water
front, movable property, business
and residence interruption; cost of
measures taken to safeguard life
and property, and salinity damage.
Noting the elevation according
to u. S. Geodetic survey to be
from zero to AS feet, he gave the
flooding to be from three to three
and one-half feet, and in some in
stances lasting up to Is days be-
fore receeding to normal. He pre-
sented photographs and maps to
sustain this declaration.
Recommendations made to the
U. S. Corps of Engineers, for pro-
tective structure for the health and
welfare to the town of Columbia
and the surrounding areas: ~
Bulk Head five feet high, on the
north and south boundaries of
town (2) levee on banks of canal
about one mile long (3) flood gates
and culverts (4) two pumps and
pumping stations (5) reduction of
damage through remedial meas
ures through coming and building
codes (6) adequate communication
service-short wave communicate
ing equipment for emergency pow
er failure.
He stated that the town and
county were cooperating in the
Civil Defense program under the
supervision of the State Head
quarters, and that the Scupper-
nong River was sometimes bar
rier to evacuation and communi-
cation. He informed that no per-
manent protective measures had
been accomplished by the town,
due to the high cost for repairing
the stated damages, for which all
monies available had been needed
The estimated cost of protective
structures recommended was
$4,000.
