MAYOR'S ANNUAL REPORT. 151REPORT OP THE SPECIAL COMMITTEE ON HOUSEDRAINAGE.SAVANNAH, GA., January 1, 1902.Hon. Herman Myers, Mayor :Dear Sir:—This .year's work has practically completedthe house drainage work in the city proper.The work on Gaston, Tattnall, Huntingdon andForty-second streets was very deep and in an unstablesoil, saturated with water, making the work difficultand the expense greater than was expected. Wehad a number of sewer breaks on these lines afterthe work was completed, which necessitated an additionalexpense of over $10,000 before we had theseparticular lines ready for use. The house drainagerepresents to date over fifty (50) miles of sewers, coveringthe entire city, making it possible for propertyowners to make sewer connections at a reasonablecost.During the past year more than 600 dry wells andvaults have been filled and over 1,500 connectionsmade to house drainage system.It will only be a question of a very few years whenall closets and dry wells will have been discontinued.In addition to the great advantage to the health of thecity, the doing away with all surface closets and drywells, which has been accomplished by this sanitarysystem of house drainage, the laying of these differentlines of pipe in all the different streets and lanesof the city at all depths has lowered the water levelthree to four feet.
