Overtaxed Bennington sewer water systems face new focus
Bennington Town Manager Louis C. Savelas and Arlen Associates engineer Eugene Bilodeau plan to discuss modifications to the water filtration plant and the town’s ability to handle water and sewer service for upcoming developments. October sewer data show the plant often ran at double capacity, dumping millions of gallons of impure water into the Walloomsac as demand swells from Greenberg Wilkinson Morse housing, a shopping center, new state office building, and Pleasant Street project. See SEWER on back page.

Landowners Post More Land to Bar Hunters, Ties to Licensing
MONTPELIER. Fish and Game Commissioner Edward Kehoe says more landowners are posting no hunting signs this year than since 1970, raising concerns about hunting license sales and increased complaints of property damage such as fence cutting. Agriculture Commissioner Edward Eurich backs the assessment, noting he posted 500 acres in Waitsfield, warning hunters not sportsmen could prompt landowner associations and self policing.

Barber grilled by complaints at PSB water hearing
Arlington Water Co. principal Norton Barber testified for over three hours at a Public Service Board hearing on July water quality and prices. Town Agent O'Dea pressed for proof of negligence, while Barber blamed chronic lack of working capital for service lapses and outlined needed capital improvements estimated at 400 000 to 600 000. Health Department orders prompted limited funding and chlorination measures as the company serves 400 homes and faces potential rate relief to fund engineering plans.
