Solution proposed for sewage ills TERRACE — City council has adopted several. Public Works Committee recommendations following a review of the city engineering services in the Ka- lum/Graham Sanitary Sewer Analysis. The study of the sewage sys- tem in that portion of south Terrace was done in response to a number of residential com- plaints of sewage backups in the south Kalum/Graham Ave. area. ; | According to engineering - technician Herb Dusdal, possi- ble solutions fall into two cate- gories: increase the sewer capa- city or reduce the flow. And because. the primary reason for the problem is the infiltration of rain water during heavy rain- falls, the latter is the best op- tion. So in order to correct the problem, Dusdal told the Public Works Committee, illegal con- nections must be removed and city manhole covers must be made more water tight. The committee chairman, al- derman Ruth Hallock, told council that smoke infiltration testing would be an integral part of identifying problem areas and this. would: be the first step’ in resolvirig sewage problems inthe area. She said that all owners of — illegal storm sewer connections» to the city’s sewage system had . been notified and several had aleady agreed to remove the illegal lines. . . ing the first-ever Northwest Community College graduation © ceremonies on May. 6.
