DISPOSAL PLANT AFFECTED iCnntlnnrd fr..m PnK, Onrl lological effects w’hich are an important part in the successful operation of the plant. Down spouts should not be connected with the sanitary sewer system. At the disposal plant Superintendent Rex Crask can make a pretty close check of the amount of water that flows into the system from rainfall by his records which he keeps of the amount of fluids that flow in. There is a normal inflow of seepage which does not fluctuate rapidly, but when there is a heavy downfall of rain, there is a sharp rise in the amount of inflow. That abnormal Inflow continues for a short time after the cessation of the rain and the amount flowing into the tanks drops to normal. However, during the period of the high level of inflow, the contents of the material in the tanks becomes diluted and the disposal process is interferred writh.
