Town Hopes
To Complete
Projects In
Next 5 Weeks
Work began Wednesday morn
ing of laying over 4,000-feet of a
12-inch sewer line along Shelton
Creek.
The job was contracted to Alli
son Construction Company by the
Town. Work began at Hazel Street
and will cohtinue along the general
shoreline of the creek to Pigeon
Street.
G. C. Ferguson, town manager,
said he expected the project would
require about four weeks.
All connecting lines to the old
line will be made as the work
progresses, he said. One reason for
putting in the new line is due to
the fact that the old lind has a
lot of leaks and absorbs much sur
face water from the creek, espe
cially during heavy rains.
Plans have also been made for
laying a 2,000-foot line along Gad
dy Branch from Howell Street to
East Street. This is another ease
of correcting a line that has an in
take of much surface water. Fer
guson explaind.
Mr. Ferguson pointed out that
the crews who have been clean
ing the trunk sewer line from Haz
elwood to Pigeon River have com
pleted their work. They began last
fall of'scraping the line, and re
moving all sand, gravel and fine
roots.
Heavy loads of sand and gravel
were removed near the Ice Plant,
the Depot area, and at the upper
part of Lake Junaluska! The line
below Lake Junaluska was fairly
free of all foreign matter, it was
found.
The cleaning project was done
by the two towns, after purchasing
eouipment that cost over $5,000.
The lowest contract price for clean
ing the 46.000-foot line was over |
$20,000. The cleaning was part of
a program being staged by the
two towns in an effort to eliminate
the overflow of the trunk line dur
ing heavy rains.
