Project Ready For Last Okeh Few Changes : Are Favored Before Plant Will be ! ; Given to Gty ; SILVERTON P r e 1 1 mlnary tests were .made Friday aUSll verton's new 160,000 sewage dis posal plant. Making the teata were Dr.. A'. W. Simmons, .chair man of the watet; commission un der whose management the plant will be placed; Elgin McCleary, superintendent ol the water de partment: ' John Cunningham of Baar it Cunningham, consulting enginters, and R. A. McClanathan, local engineer, y While the plant was ready 10 that it was Tunning Friday a few changes were found necessary and a few details' must be completed before , the ' plant Is turned ? over to the cltyL Engineers said Fri day that in a week or 10 days, final Inspection would be made. Engineers explained ' that the process of sewage treatment used In the Silverton treatment plant is sedimentation and separates sludge -i digestion, with sludge dried on sand beds, followed by aj . . . . ... M J I M triCKunc mier. secondary cut- mentation of the effluent, and chlorination. , Filter Interesting Of most interest to Tisltors, those In charge reported, is the strange looking trickling filter, with Its 2800 yards of gravel on an 80-foot bed. The gravel, through which the sewer filters Is six feet deep. . A nicely arranged small labo ratory is a part of the plant. A byline is. so arranged that should anything go wrong with the plant, the sewage can be turned into the creek at once without en tering the plant. "work on the project was started on December 1 as a PWA project with a $27,000 federal grant. The thought of the plant originated with the Silverton planning council, with Dr. P. A. Loar, city health officer, as Its chief Instigator. One of Four New Plants The plant is one of four such sewage improvements which Ore- g o n municipalities undertook during the past year. Silverton's plant Is located on a five acre strip of land along Silver Creek off the Salem road and near the old dump ground. The -water department will sup ervise the new project after it is turned over to the city. A dual bookkeeping system has been set up within the commission and first bills will probably be issued July 1. The exact rate remains yet to be worked out. The plant will run approximately two hours a day and a man will be employed part time dally to look after the project operation: Miss Inga Thorklldson Is now Squalus Survivor Is Carried to Hospital f i in J- .......
