Montgomery County sentinel. [volume] (Rockville, Md.) 1855-1974, 1960-09-01

80 acres of land owned by the
Maryland-National Capital Park
and Planning Commission and
located on the flatlandS of the
Anacostia River south of the
Peace Cross, in Prince Georges
County.
The Anacostia Landfill has
filled rapidly but has a remain
ing life of probably five or more
years before it win be returned
to the M-NCPPC for planned
development as a public golf
course.
In 1859, more than 10000
tons of refuse were disposed of
at Lyttonsville and Anacostia,
with a peak one-day load regis
tered on December % post
Christmas deluge of wrapping
paper, boxes, etc. when 703
tons were disposed of in a "a
hour period.
Charge Supports Service
The WSSC Refuse Division
operates a fleet of 43 packer
type trucks and five general
collection vehicles to pick up
refuse in its Montgomery Coun-
ty service area. This operation,
which resulted in the, collection
of more than $1,000 tons of ref
use in 1859, is supported by a
$2.25 monthly charge paid by
customers served by the sys-
tenn. The WSSC provides twice
a-week pick up service.
Private and municipal haulers
who use the Commissions dis
posal facilities pay at the rate
of 81 per ton at the Anacostia
Landfill and 81 per ton at the
Lyttonsville Incinerator.
Just as it has brought about
great expansion of the Commits
sion's water, sewer and storm
drainage programs, suburban
Maryland's booming population
has caused tremendous growth
of the WSSC refuse collection
and disposal operation. Last
year, the Commission retained
Carl Schneider, a consulting en-
gineer specializing in the refuse
field, to make a study of and
recommendations regarding the
current operation and future
needs of the Refuse Division.
Mr.. Schneider has completed
his survey and noted that the
WSSC is operating "an excellent
system" with high class equip
ment and adequate service to
householders."
More Facilities Needed
However, he pointed out that
rapid growth of areas served"
will require additional inciner-
ator and landfill capacities for
the future. He has recommend
ed construction of a new and
larger incinerator at Lyttons-
vile" and acquisition within
the next five years" of addition
al sites for sanitary landfills in
Prince Georges County.
These and other important
suggestions included in the
Schneider Survey are being
studied now by the Commission
and its staff in an effort to
come up with the best possible
methods for financing and car
rying out expansion of the sys-
tenn to meet the requirements

This includes renting of a

field has been plated like the

merely pick out their own ad-

burden has been lifted from the

Oscar /. Dodek, president oi
the Merchants and Manufac-
turers Association, asserted
1.-The biggest advantage Of the
new law is that only one at
. .tachment on an employe at one
time can be made"
- He also said "PromiScuous
credit extension to questionable
credit risks has been curtailed.
Mr.. Dodek reminded business
men that they can check with
Municipal Court and determine
whether a customer applying
for credit has a garnishment
against him at the time.
william N. Nedrow, chief
: deputy clerk Of the Civil Divi-
sion Of the Municipal Court,
said: THE number of garnish-
ments is running now Just
about one-half less than year
ago."
-
Repeats" Unnecessary
He explained repeat" at
tachments of salary are no
longer necessary under the new
law. This accounts in part for
> the decrease in work. He en-
phasized that there is no
doubt that the work-load on
the marshal's Office and the
court has been greatly eased."
Mr.. Nedrow said the only
problem which existed in con-
nection with the courts printed
form which the employer must
complete and return has been
solved. He said the old form
provided for the date and
amount Of Judgment with in
terest at 6 per cent per year,
plus costs. but did not give the
amount of costs. The court has
now modified the form.
New forms, being printed
and to be in use shortly, will
provide for information on
costs in dollars and the COM
plete amount in dollars which
the judgment credit or claims.
Interest and possibly costs will
increase while the writ is being
paid of. But the employer can
contact the attorney for the
Judgment credit or at the time
OF the last payment to get the
final figure.
Mr.. Dodek said: Certain
District merchants can no
longer rely on garnishment
proceedings to collect many Of
their bills. The Merchants and
Manufacturers Association has
performed a real service to all
local businessmen by working
for this new law which was the
result of several years effort"
Supported by Bar
The legislation was support
ed by the District Of Columbia
Bar Association. The Mer-
chants and Manufacturers As
sociation was the principal
business group which aided in
passage, Mr.. Dodek said.
