ROCK CREEK
First Major Pollution
Is Maryland Sewage
Continued From Page A.

Continued From Page Al
through the Maryland National
Capital Parks section of Rock
Creek Park, it becomes in
creasingly stained with slit and
mud, but is still relatively free
of pollution.
Just inside the Maryland Sec
ton of Rock Greek Park across
from the District boundary line
the first major pollution occurs
from the periodic spillovers
which started recently at a
Washington Suburban Sanitary
Commission sewer manhole
near Beach drive.
Untreated sewage pours into
the creek at this point because
of a bottleneck where a new
46-inch sanitary commission
sewer connects with a District
line only 8 feet in diameter.
Sewer Inadequate
AS a result, the sewage backs

hole openings and along a crude
trench directly into Rock Greek
some so feet away.
The District sewer is made
quate because it was designed
only to take care of Washing
ton sewage. Since the sewer
was built the District has
agreed to carry sanitary COM
mission sewage through its line
for treatment at the Blue Plains
plant.
The agreement includes a
provision that the sanitary
commission will pay it's share
of the cost of sewer construction
in the District. In this partic-
ular case, the sanitary commits
sion elected to build its own
relief sewer.
However, the National Park
Service has refused to grant a
permit for construction of the
proposed relief sewer through
its section of upper Rock Greek
Park because it felt the route
would ruin some park areas.
A written application for
permission to build this sewer
through the park was first made
in November, 1859, according
to Raymond Freeman. assistant
director of Region 6 of the park
service.
There has been some laxness
on both sides in reaching agree
ment on a route for the relief
sewer" said Mr.. Freeman.
Sutton Jet. park service
Region 6 director. said he be-
lieves there has been a lack of
cooperation on the part of the
sanitary commission and it's
engineering consultants in
agreeing on a sewer route.
Park Responsibility
1T is our responsibility to
preserve the park area" said
Mr.. Jet. The sanitary COM
mission consultants wanted to
build the sewer where it would
be cheapest and most practical.
They wanted to cut a 40-foot
swa t h through a valuable
wooded area. We wanted them
to tunnel in some places and
they wouldn't agree"
Mr.. Jet said new sewer
construction has been proposed
for other National Park. Service
properties in the Washington
area.
What we do in Rock Greek
will set the pattern for other
park areas" he said.
A complicating factor is that
while highways can go almost
anywhere, sewers follow stream
valleys because they usually de-
pend on gravity flow.
But the park service regards
the area through which the
sewer would go as one of ma
lures treasure islands, almost
the last refuge in the city for
some types of birds, animals
and plants.
Bridge Issue
Park service officials are par
ticularly sensitive to any fur
ther loss of nature areas be-
cause of their defeat in the

battle to keep a highway bridge
off Theodore Roosevelt Island
At the same time Mr.. Jet
said that he fully recognizes the
need for permitting a relief
sewer to be built on a satisfac-
tory route through Rock Greek
Park.
Nothing would improve the
park areas in Region 6 more
than the removal of all pollu-
ton from Rock Greek and the
Potomac River because we own
so much of the water fronts, >
said Mr.. Jet. However, he
added, I'VE have an obligation
to preserve the park areas for
future generations"
On the other hand, Robert ]
Mcleod, chief engineer for the
sanitary commission. contends
there has been no lack of CO.
operation with the park service
in trying to settle on a mutually
satisfactory route for the sewer
Our problem has been trying
to get the park people to say
what they really want" Mr.. Nc
Leod said. Il agreed that We
should put part of the sewer in
a tunnel as they wanted ever
though it will be more expen-
sive. think we're pretty close
to an agreement but there is
no time to waste.
Il can't think of anyone who
should be more disturbed about
this situation than the park
people themselves"
The BOttIeneck
Mr.. Mcleod said that because
Maryland is growing all the
time" the volume of sewage
splitting out at the bottleneck
at the District line will increase
The sanitary commission Of
fetal said that even if final
agreement is reached this week,
it would then take an addi-
tional 80 days before bids could
be received for construction of
the relief sewer.
Building the sewer, he said
will take from eight to nine
months. He added that this
time might have to be extended
another two months if a severe
winter slows the job.
Mr.. Mcleod said that he
warned the park service in a
letter dated october 81 that
there was a danger of spillage
of raw sewage into the creek
and that a prompt decision on
the relief sewer route was
urgent. He added that he has
repeated this warning several
times.
Meanwhile, Mr.. Mcleod said,
the estimated original $780,
900 cost of building the mile
and one half sewer has climbed
to $830,000 because of conces-
sions, such as the tunnel, made
so far to the park service.
Greek Pollution
The creek has a different and
much less severe pollution prob
lem from the District sewer
lines. While the sanitary COM
mission in Montgomery County
he's separate sewer lines for
storm and sanitary sewage,
many of the District lines carry
a combined flow of storm water
and sanitary sewage.
During heavy rains these Dis
trict sewers spill the excess
storm water into the creek and
the overflow often includes di-
luted sewage.
However, David V. Aud. di-
rector of the District Depart
ment of Sanitary Engineering,
said that a sewer separation
program now in progress will
soon eliminate the combined
flow in the upper section of
Rock Greek above Piney
Branch.
Mr.. Aud added that the
money is either in hand or in
sight and the engineering de-
sign is well along to take care
of all the dry-weather sanitary
flow through Rock Creek Park
