correlated in a hydraulic technique Questioned he said It was ac cepted engineering practice to determine flow from tributaries as well as the river itself He admitted If the naked eye revealed there was little flow during dry periods he might have to be very much on guard but all the data indicated otherwise The cost factor for skirting the conservation area was the big argument when Bob Jones of Woodstock Consulting Engineers testified before the hearing He reviewed the history of the proposal and the terms of reference his company was given to design a plant below the conservation area to avoid any plant upset which would upset into the conservation pool Pay more Mr Jones testified the saving would be If the treatment plant was located on Valley Road Slasher not found Acton police have

but again other factors would turn it into a more expensive site Air pollution regulations require a plant to be at least 1500 feet from any dwellings Alternatives A or B would also mean the transfer of village wastes by gravity sewers to the alternative plant sites and it would be necessary to reverse the flow in several sewers on Alma Division and a portion of Main St This would Increase the
