The greatest amount of con- struction undertaken in a sin.L'le year since the founding of the sewer system 65 years ago is slowly coming to a close in this city, Sidney Green, chairman oi’ the Commissioners of Sewers and Water Supply, said yester-
day.
Mr. Green said this work re- presented a tremendous im- provement in the city's fire
fighting capacity as the Com- missioners moved to further implement the Pitomcter report recommendations of two years ago.
More than 3.6 miles of new pipes have been laid just since last spring, the chairman stat- .ed. as the department moved Ito reinforce present mains and iprovide services for new sub- .di\'isi0ns such as those in the
area of the new Holy Redeem-

It suggested a complete pro- gram of modernization, which, it stated. was needed in order to meet requirements of insurance underwriters and prevent a hike in insurance rates in this city.
Almost immediately. the Com- missioners moved to implement the report and started with th 0
laying of a new, large, 12-inch main into the city. along Elm Avenue.
Mr. G r e e n said despite the vast im p r 0 V e ment to date, through installing new mains and strengthening existing lines, t-he full benefit of e w or k would not be received until com-
its design is now under consid- eration. Much thought is being given at present to determine whether it should be of reinforc- ed concrete or pre-stressed con- crete. Comparative costs are be- ing obtained from various sourc- es. and the commissioners are endeavouring to determine what to use on the basis of getting high quality, durability and the best price cost.
The new main to connect with thirreservoir will connect with the 12-inch main now being laid along Upper Queen Street to Belvedere Avenue. The applica- tion of the commissioners to have this project qualify under the federal winter works pro-
