Sewers and Sewerage
Matheson.—In April I went to Matheson to report on the Rosedale War Memorial Hospital for the Department of Prisons and Charities. This introduced the subject of the street sewers which empty into the Black River without treatment. The Black River empties in the Abitibi above the intake pipe for Iroquois Falls water supply. The matter was brought to the attention of the Provincial Board as it was in contravention of Section 91 of the Public Health Act, but no objection was taken to it.
