Mr. Chairman, I am happy to present, on "behalf of the Department of Health,
Education, and Welfare, a summary statement concerning water quality manage-
ment of New England's waters, with emphasis on conditions in the "basins of
the Housatonic, Connecticut, and Thames Rivers. A more detailed statement
including a description of Department of Health, Education, and Welfare
activities is being submitted for the record.
New England may count, as.assets, the skills of its people and its favorable
economic, educational, recreational and geographic features. To insure the
future of New England, there must he recognition of the modern problems of
water quality management. Growing population and changing industry create
water quality problems. To combat these up coming problems waste treatment
plants must be built, enlarged, or modernized and industries must assume
greater responsibility for treating the wastes or otherwise controlling the
pollution they discharge into New England's many streams.
*Presented before the Natural Resources and Power Subcommittee of the House
-Committee on Government Operations at Hartford, Connecticut, October b, 1963.
-------
In planning stream utilization, recognition must "be given to multiple purposes
including "both industrial and recreational uses. Cooperative efforts on the
part of local, State, Interstate, and Federal agencies are essential.
The need for action in water quality management in New England has "been
recognized in many respects. Much of the early research in developing sewage
treatment plant design vas conducted in New England and New England munici-
palities have stressed construction of well designed plants. A preliminary
summary of a January 1962 inventory indicates that nearly U00 municipal sewage
treatment works have "been completed or are under construction. Construction
grants for sewage works facilities approved under the Federal Water Pollution
Control Act total 219 and were estimated to cost $^5 mill ion (As of June 30,
1963)* Of these iQh projects are completed or under construction.
The New England Interstate Water Pollution Control Commission, authorized "by
Congress in 19^7> is classifying all interstate rivers and streams in the
compact area, sponsoring research and encouraging cooperative efforts.
In 1957 the Congress received and ordered to be printed the 1955 Report of
the New England-New York Inter-Agency Committee (NENYIAC) on Land and Water
Resources. This Committee Report, responding to a request of the Flood
Control Act of 1950* made a major contribution to available information on
the water resources of New England and most of New York State. Information
on sources of pollution and water quality has been partially updated through
regular Department of Health, Education, and Welfare programs. A comprehensive
water pollution control program, tinder the Federal Water Pollution Control Act,
-2-
-------
is planned for early attention and will include up-to-date information and
recommendations on "water quality management in the Hew England River Basins.
A permanent Northeastern Resources Committee with State and Federal repre°
sentation has succeeded NENYIAC as a forum for discussion and exchange of
info imation.
In many respects, the three basins described in the report submitted are
similar. They are mostly located in Connecticut, in an area which has about
1*5 inches of rainfall each year. The basins are heavily industrialized,
subject to floods, used for many purposes, and have extraordinary
potentialities for recreation. In many sections, basin waters will be
insufficient to meet demands by the year 2000. On various stretches of the
main rivers and their tributaries impairment of water quality is already a
problem.
Housatonic River Basin
The 131-mile long Housatonic River rises in southwestern Massachusetts
at the confluence of the east and west Branch Housatonic Rivers at Pittsfield.
It follows a generally southerly course from Massachusetts into Connecticut
and empties into Long Island Sound near Stratford, Connecticut. It has seven
tributaries, of which the main ones are the Ten Mile River and the Naugatuck
River. The principal city in the Basin is Waterbury, Connecticut
(population 107,100 in 1960). There are nine other cities in the Basin with
populations ranging from 18,000 at Naugatuck, Connecticut, to 58,000 at
Pittsfield^, Massachusetts.
-------
Manufactured output of the Basin includes brass products and machine parts
at Torrington; clocks, brass, and copper products at Waterbury; rubber and
chemicals at Naug&tuck; rubber and textile goods at Derby and Shelton; and
hats at Danbury. In Massachusetts, Pittsfield, vhich produces electrical
equipment and textiles, is the major industrial center.
In 1954, of the 235 million gal Tons of fresh water used daily in the Basin,
industrial needs totaled 198 mill ion gallons including 104 million gallons
for cooling. Some of this water is obtained from outside of local watersheds.
Twenty-one communities were each using more than one mil lion gallons per day.
This water use may double by the year 2000.
In the 1955 report, of the 202 waste discharges to the waters of the Housatonic
River Basin, 7^ were primarily sewage (from both municipal and industrial
sources) with a population equivalent of approximately 200,000 persons| the
remaining 128 were discharges from industrial plants. Of these wastes 60 were
principally organic in nature, while the remaining 68 contained predominantly
inorganic materials. Of the 60 organic waste sources, 30 had a BOD population
equivalent of 207,000 persons.
The 1962 Municipal Waste Facilities Inventory lists 40 municipalities in the
Basin that discharge their wastes to the stream. Thirteen provide primary
treatment and l4 provide secondary treatment. Information now available indi-
cates that an estimated BOD population equivalent of 3^0,000 reaches the
Housatonic waters compared to 200,000 BOD population equivalent in 1954.
Both Connecticut and Massachusetts are taking steps to improve the quality of
waters in the Housatonic Basin. Federal grants for construction are proving
-------
helpful. Since 1956, six Connecticut communities (Bethel, Morris, New Milford,
Plymouth, Thomaston, Wharton Fire District) have received Federal grant offers
totaling almost $1 million to build about $3j6i*0,000 worth of facilities. In
the Massachusetts section of the Basin, six grant offers in the amount of
$1,227,687 have been made to three communities (Dalton, Lenox, Pittsfield) to
"build $6,155,000 worth of facilities. Seven of these 12 projects are complete,
three are under construction, and two are in the grant offer stage.
A general conclusion with regard to the Housatonic River Basin is that its
waters are already in short supply as evidenced "by the fact that not enough
water has been available from local watersheds to meet the demands of Banbury.,
Bethel, and Waterbury, Connecticut, and additional water has had to be obtained
by revise, storage, and diversion from other areas. It is essential therefore
that no waters in the Basin be destroyed by pollution.
Connecticut River Basin
The Connecticut River, with headwaters in New Hampshire near the border
of the United States and Canada, flows 400 miles to Saybrook, Connecticut at
Long Island Sound and has the largest drainage basin in New England which
includes parts of four States — Vermont, New Hampshire, Massachusetts, and
Connecticut. The basin is heavily forested and sparsely populated in its
upper reaches and densely populated and industrialized in the southern section.
Diversified industry is expected to provide major support for an anticipated
Basin population increase of one-third by the year 2000 although some support
will come from agriculture with tobacco as the major crop. Additional support
is expected from industries and services related to recreation for which the
Basin is well adapted. These favorable factors have contributed to a State
-5-
-------
population increase in Connecticut of 26.3 percent between 1950 and i960 as
compared to a national average increase of 18.5 percent.
Eighty-five percent of the Basin's total water supply storage is located in
the Quabbin Reservoir in the Chicopee River watershed, a unit of the Metro-
politan Boston water supply system. Hartford draws its water supply from
the Famington River system, a tributary to the Connecticut River.
According to the 1955 report,, of the 1,076 million gallons per day (mgd) of
fresh water used, Jb6 mgd was for industry cooling, 238 mgd was for industry
process and 92 mgd was for domestic use. Sixteen hundred million gallons per
day is estimated as the amount necessary to supply Basin municipalities and
industries by the year 2000.
The quality of the waters in the Connecticut River Basin must be preserved,
or restored, if the water demands of the year 2000 and beyond are to be met.
In 1955 separate significant sources of municipal and industrial wastes dis-
charging to watercourses in the Basin totaled k-95. Of these, 236 were from
municipalites and industries contributing sewage with a population equivalent
of 750,000 persons. Of the 259 separate industrial wastes discharges, waste
materials in 15^ were principally organic in nature with a computed population
equivalent of over 1.75 million. The remaining 105 industrial discharges
contained wastes of a predominantly inorganic character.
Data obtained in 1962 indicates that 95 municipalities discharge BOD population
equivalents of 62^,000. Of the 95 wastes treatment plants ^1 provide primary
treatment and 26 secondary treatment. Forty-four Massachusetts industries
-6-
-------
discharge -wastes to streams and 39 of 99 Connecticut industrial wastes sources
create a serious problem in the Basin's streams.
Connecticut and Massachusetts are moving to improve the -waters in the
Connecticut River Basin. Since the beginning of the Federal grants program
five Connecticut communities and one hospital (Glastonbury, Rockvllle, Rocky-
Hill, Tariffville, Windsor Locks, Middletown Hospital) have received grant
offers totaling $915,^1 to build facilities costing approximately $3,1^2,000.
Twenty-nine grant offers have been made to 17 Massachusetts communities in the
amount of $1,161,912 to build facilities costing $11,250,000.
A general conclusion with regard to the Connecticut River Basin is that in the
future it may be necessary to consider using -waters from the urn in stem of the
River and its larger tributaries for domestic vater supply and for industrial
process uses. It is essential that -waters be preserved for these future uses.
Thames River Basin
The Thames River Basin, 67 miles in length, drains 1,^7^ square miles in
south central Massachusetts, northwestern Rhode Island, and eastern Connecticut.
Navigation in the main stem to Norwich, Connecticut, is possible. Hie Thames
also supplies water to meet the needs for power operation and for municipal and
industrial purposes. In 1950, 77 percent of the Basin population were estimated
to live in Connecticut, about 22 percent in Massachusetts, and about one percent
in Rhode Island. The principal population centers are Norwich (i960 population
of 39,000); New London (i960 population of 3^>000)> and Groton (i960 popjlation
of 10,000) -- all in Connecticut.
-------
Industry is well dispersed throughout the Basin. The manufacture of cotton
and woolen specialties constitutes the major segment of the industrial economy.
Other items manufactured include chemicals and vacuum "bottles at Norwich, metal
products at Will 1mantle, machine tools and optical goods at Putnam^ and sub-
marines at Groton. In Massachusetts optical goods are manufactured at
Southbridge and machine tools at Webster.
Daily fresh -water requirements in 1955 were 9^ mill ion gallons of -which
industrial needs totaled 78 mill ion gallons. It is expected that this demand
will at least double by the year 2000.
Of the 135 separate waste discharges to the waters of the Basin in 1955> Si
were of industrial origin. The total population equivalent of wastes in this
category that are principally organic in nature was computed to be in excess
of 3^0,000 persons. Textile operations accounted for 205,000 of this total,
paper mills for about 100,000, and leather and leather products for about
20,000. The 1955 NENYIAC report states that 71 out of the 8l industrial waste
discharges received no treatment or known in-plant modification for pollution
abatement purposes. The 1962 Public Health Service inventory of municipal
waste treatment reports 26 municipal waste discharges of which 21 received
treatment, 16 primary treatment, and 5 secondary treatment. The 1962 popu-
lation equivalent reaching the waters of the Thames River Basin were estimated
to be 77*000 persons.
Pollution of the main streams in the Basin begins in most instances, near
their headwaters. This is especially true in the French and Willimantlc Rivers.
-------
Of the 11 principal rivers tributary to the Thames, only one transports no
pollution.
In the Thames River Basin, as in both the Connecticut and Housatonic Basins,
Connecticut and Massachusetts are taking steps to improve water quality.
Since 1956 five grant offers have been made to four Connecticut communities
(Danielson, Norwich, Groton, and Willimantic) totaling $9^5 .>9^0 to build
facilities costing approximately $3*321*000. One grant offer in the amount
of $5>670 has been made to Dudley, Massachusetts, to construct facilities
costing $18,900. Two of these six projects have been completed, three are
voider construction, and one is in the grant offer stage.
A general conclusion with regard to the Thames River Basin is that the
municipal and industrial fresh water needs are expected to double by the
year 2000 and whether this amount will be available or not will, depend on how-
well the quality of the waters of the Basin are maintained or restored.
General
Fourteen mgd of wastes are discharged from 115 Federal installations in
the three Basins. Less than four percent is discharged to surface waters un-
treated. This four percent untreated Federal installation's waste is a
fraction of a percent of the total municipal wastes going untreated.

INTRODUCTION
This report presents information on the status of water quality management
in the Housatonic, Connecticut, and Thames River Basins and their tributaries
in the States of Connecticut and Massachusetts. A limited amount of data
is included for the remaining area of the State of Connecticut. Data has
been assembled by the Water Supply and Pollution Control Program, Public
Health Service, U.S. Department of Health, Education, and Welfare, from
its files and thru the cooperation of the Connecticut Water Resources
Commission, the Massachusetts Department of Public Health, and the
New England Interstate Water Pollution Control Commission.
The Water Supply and Pollution Control Program 6f Region I is operated
under the authority and vithin the framework provided in the Federal Water
Pollution Control Act, as amended by P.L. 87-88. The program was transferred
from Region II, New York to the Boston Office and began with a Regional
Program Director and a secretary in July 1962. While the Boston staff of
17 persgns is essentially complete for routine operations, no more than
gne-hslf have been employed for longer than six months.
* Presented before the Natural Resources and Power Subcommittee of the
House Committee on Government Operations at Hartford, Connecticut on
October 1963*
-------
By virtue of a Memorandum of Agreement ?jetween the Department of Array
and Department of Health, Education, and Welfare relative to the Water
Supply Act of 1958, the Water Supply and Pollution Control Program pro-
vides eons illation to the Corps of Engineers on the future needs and
value of storage of water for municipal ana industrial purposes in multi-
purpose projects. Field coordination of this work is vith the New England
Division of the Corps of Engineers located in Waltham, Massachusetts.
Interagency review of Federal project plans and reports is coordinated
at Washington Division Headquarters. Detailed review is accomplished at
the Regional Office field level where consideration is given to the
effects 0:1 water quality, water supply, and public health. Many dis-
cussions and much planning between agencies is acccmplished at the
field level before projects reach their final design stage. Comments have
been submitted on 88 of 119 Carps of Engineers and Soil Conservation Service
projects.
The data presented with tfois statement lias been obtained through coop-
eration of State and interstate agencies with Public Health Service.
Specific sources of this infoxuation were records of the national water
quality network stations (two on the Connecticut River in Massachusetts
and Connecticut); wastes and water facilities inventories, interagency
review of Federal projects, and reports on State-operated projects. The
New England-New York Interagency Committee Report written under the guidance
of the Airay Corps of Engineers and dated 1955 has the most complete
-2-
-------
infoimation available on the inventory and use of New England's water
resources. These data, which need updating,, still serve as a guide in
the absence of more up-to-date infoncation. Data on ~<5,ter and waste
sources is "being updated by regular Department of Healthy Education, and
Welfare programs. Following the 1955 report., a permanent Northeastern
Resources Ccanmittee with both State and Federal representation was
chartered under the Inter-Agency Committee on Water Resoiirces (IGWR)
in Washington. The Committee serves as a forum for discussion and ex-
change of infoimation.
A comprehensive "water quality management program of the Public Health
Service in cooperation ¦with State and Federal agencies under the pro-
visions of the Federal Water Pollution Control Act will update existing
infoimation and provide missing data for a more complete evaluation of
water quality problems. The development of such a program for the
New England River Basics is proposed by the Department of Health, Education^,
and Welfare and funds for this purpose were contained in the President's
budget request for fiscal year 1964.
DESCRIPTION OF AREA
1. Connecticut
The State of Chiinecticut comprises 5*009 square miles^ including
110 square miles of water surface. Its coastline is 96 miles in length.
According to the Bureau of Census, Connecticut' s i960 population was 2, 535,23^
an increase of 26.3 per ceat "between 1-950 and i960. r£his rate of growth
-3-
-------
exceeded the national average of 18.5 per cent and was more than double
the rate of the next highest New England state.
The resources of the state include an abundance of water, fertile agri-
cultural valleys, and limited amounts of minerals and forests. Approx-
imately 50^000 acres of oyster production "beds, primarily seed oysters,
occur along the coasts. Commercial fishing supports a million dollar
per year fisheries industry.
Employment in the area is primarily in manufacturing, services, trans-
portation, and agriculture. Approximately h2 per cent of the persons
employed are in the manufactui*Jjjfs. industry. This industry includes
machinery, fabricated metals, transportation equipment, electrical
machinery, and primary metals. Farm products include milk, eggs,
chickens, tobacco, hay, fruits, and vegetables.
The three river basins cutting through the three areas of Connecticut
are the Housatonic, Connecticut, and Thames. These drain the Western
Highland, Central Valley, and Eastern Highlands, respectively.
2. Housatonic River Basin
The 131 mile Housatonic River drains 1,950 square miles in south
western Massachusetts, western Connecticut, and eastern New York. Its
main tributaries are the Blackberry, Pomperaug, Candlevood Lake, Tenmile,
Still, Shepaug, and Naugatuck Rivers.
It is a valuable source of power, provides water recreation, and serves
municipalities, agriculture and industry as a source of water.
-------
Major population centers in the "basin are Pittsfield, Massachusetts;
and Waterbury, Stratford, Daribury, and Torrington^, Connecticut.
3. Connecticut River Basin
The Connecticut River with headwaters in New Hampshire flows U00
miles and drains an area of 11,200 square miles in four states, the largest
and longest river basin in New England. It is navigable to the vicinity
of Hartford, Connecticut with same smaller "boats traveling to a rapids
area near Windsor Locks. This Basin is heavily forested in its northern
reaches and densely populated in the southern section. Connecticut River
salmon are a rarity, "but there are some indications that shad are on an
increase.
The Connecticut River Valley in Connecticut averages about 20 miles in
width. Tributaries in Connecticut and Massachusetts are the Chicopee,
Miller, Manham, Fannington, Westfield, Deerfield, Salmon, and Scantic Rivers.
The river is a source of pcwer along both its main stem and its tributaries.
Several of these tributaries also serve as a source of water for agriculture,
municipalities, and industries. Beaches and resorts are located near its
mouth as it empties into Long Island Sound at Saybrook.
Major population centers iaclude six in Massachusetts and seven in Connecticut

4. Themes River Basin
The Thames River, 67 miles in length, drains 1,^7^ square miles
in southcentral Massachusetts, northwestern Rhode Island, and eastern
Connecticut. Its tributaries consist of the Quinebaug, Willimantic,
Natchaug, French, Shetucket, Yantic, and Hop Rivers. The main stem of
the stream is navigable to Norwich, Connecticut. In addition to
navigation, its waters are also used for power generation, municipalities,
industry, and for recreation. Major towns are Norwich and New London,
Connecticut
WATER USES
1. Housatonic River Basin
Rural domestic and agricultural water use in the 1955 NENYIAC Report
for 66,800 persons was 5 million gallons per day (mgd). Irrigation water
used at that time was estimated to be 2 mgd over an estimated 150 day
frost-free period. Any significant increase of use of water for
irrigation would significantly reduce available water in small watersheds
during hot, dry weather.
In 195^ fifty-four public water systems supplied 6l mgd of which 2b mgd
was for industrial use. An additional 17^ mgd of fresh water and 217 mgd
of brackish water used by industry from its own sources.
The present public water facilities supply ^00, 500 persons with 58 mgd of
water. Forty-three supplies receive all or a portion of their water from
surface sources. Connecticut has recently completed an up-te-date
industrial water and waste inventory. According to this inventory,
industries in Connecticut provide an additional 163 mgd for their own use.
-------
Industrial sources include both ground and surface water. (See Appendix I)
At the time of writing .jof the NENYIAC Report recreation was a major
industry of this river "basin. Most prevelant were hunting, fishing, "boat-
ing, skiing, swimming, and nature studies. Fishing was entirely of a
recreational nature with no commercial utilization. At the mouth of the
river a small amount of shellfish and marine finfish existed. Today,
water quality is such that shellfish are obtained from this estuary with-
out restriction.
Nine utility-owned and ^5 privately-owned hydroelectric plants existed.
The utility-owned plants had a total installed capacity of 116,100
kilowatts and the others had a capacity of 113,100 horsepower. Several
possible sites for power development remained in this basin in 1955•
2. Connecticut River Basin (Conn. & Mass.)
An estimated 7. mgd of water was used for rural, domestic, and
agricultural purpases according to the 1955 Report. Another estimated
1.0 to 1.5 mgd of irrigation water is used during the growing season in
this river basin in Connecticut and Massachusetts. This total use by
rural areas is small compared to that used by municipalities and industry.
Forty-three Connecticut municipalities and 6l Massachusetts municipalities,
including Boston, provided 121 mgd of water from the Connecticut Basin to
their citizens and industry in 195^« Of this total, industry used 51.mgd.
Private industrial supplies accounted for another S6k.mgd of water used.
Sixty-two of the 11^ municipal supplies used surface sources for a part or
all of their water.
-7-
-------
In 1963* forty-nine Connecticut municipalities and 72 Massachusetts
municipalities have public water systems. Of these 121 supplies,
86 obtain scane or all of their water from surface sources. The total
number of persons served is 1,31+0,000, and they, along with industries
in their municipalities, use 153 mgd. Industries in Connecticut provide
an additional 26 mgd from both surface and ground water sources. (Appendix I)
All types of water based recreation occur in this basin. Boating is a
very popular sport. Resort areas for both summer and winter recreation
are found throughout the basin.
The Connecticut River is one of the most important commercial inland
fish producing areas of New England. Shad are plentiful in its waters,
particularly in Connecticut, and a sport fishery at Enfield, Connecticut
provides excellent and popular recreational opportunities. However, water
quality degradation has resulted in the closing, for taking of shellfish,
that area of the estuary upstream from a line drawn from Breakwater Light
House to the most southerly point of Griswold Point.
In 1955 there were over 200 water power developments in the Connecticut
River Basin. Total aggregate capacity of these 65 utility-owned and
135 privately-owned plants was approximately 700,000 kilowatts. At the
time of this inventory, eight additional hydropower sites appeared
economically feasible of development. Two of these appeared desirable for
multi-purpose use.

3. Thames River Basin
Farai water use for an estimated 62,000 persons in 1955 was 5 mgd. The
amount used for irrigation was not known, but was considered to be
insignificant compared to other uses.
Municipal and industrial water use in 1955 was Sk mgd. Of the j8 mgd used
"by industry, 7 mgd were from municipal systems. The 38 separate municipal
systems were supplying 23 mgd to their customers.
On January 1, 19&3 six Massachusetts and 31 Connecticut municipalities
served a total population of 221,100 persons. Twenty-one of these communities
use surface water for all or a portion of their supply. Total water use by
municipalities is 2b mgd. Industries in the Connecticut portion of the
Thames basin supply 31 mgd for their own needs. This is in addition to
the amount of municipally supplied water used by industry. (See Appendix I)
The NENYIAC Report of 1955 states that "Commercial fish and wildlife values
are relatively insignificant in this basin. There are some commercial
shellfish and finfish values in the vicinity of the Thames River Estuary..."
Today the entire estuary within and above a line from Seaside Point south-
easterly to Rapid Rock then northeast to Pine Island and due north to the
eastern extremity of Avery Point, is closed to the taking of shellfish be-
cause of pollution.
The 1955 study indicated the presence of 72 hydroelectric developments in
the Thames River Basin. Forty-one of these had a total installed gen-
erating capacity of about 22,000 kilowatts. The other 31 plants were
-------
mechanical drive. Studies at that time indicated there were no other
sites meeting the minimum conditions of economic justification. One
reason for this lack of sites was the low flow in the river during
periods of critical power demand.
SOURCES OF WASTES TO SURFACE WATERS
Appendices II - IV list the known municipalities, industries,- and Federal
installations discharging wastes to surface streams. The codesNE-2, NE-U,
and NE-5, represent, the Housatonic, Connecticut, and Thames River Basins
respectively.
1. Federal Installations
There are presently 115 Federal installations within the three
river "basins "being discussed. Fourteen mgd of wastes, including sanitary
and all classes of industrial discharges, are generated by these installations.
Of this total, 11.mgd (or 79$) is discharged to surface waters and 2.5 mgd.
to the ground, both after receiving treatment, and 0.5 mgd (or 4$) is dis-
charged to surface water without treatment. Of the 11.mgd treated dis-
charge J.6 mgd (or 68$) is cooling water. Of the 0.5 mgd untreated discharge,
approximately 0.4 mgd is sanitary sewage discharged from the General Dynamics
Plant at Groton, Connecticut and the balance is miscellaneous isolated small
sources. The General Dynamics plant is listed in the Inventory of Waste
Water Disposal Practices at Federal Installations as of December 1, i960
but on December 6, 1962, was sold by the U.S. Navy to General dynamics and
is, therefore, no longer a Federal installation. Untreated wastes from
Federal installations represent less than one per-cent of the total
untreated wastes discharged to surface waters.
-10-
-------
Status of specific Federal installations considered to be a possible
pollution problem is tabulated in Appendix IV. Also included in
Appendix IV is a summary table of vaste treatment data for Federal
installations.
2. Housatonic River Basin
In 195^, there were 7^ separate sources of sewage from municipalities
and industries and 128 separate sources of industrial -wastes discharging
to the waters of the Housatonic River Basin. The BOD population equivalent
of the lb sewage sources discharged to the streams was slightly less than
200,000 and that of half of the 60 organic wastes-industries was 207,000 P.E.
Information about the other half of the organic wastes-industries was not
available. The effect of wastes from 68 industries producing inorganic
wastes was not known.
Of the 38 municipalities discharging wastes to streams in 195^, 6 provided
primary and 8 secondary treatment. From the 1962 inventory of municipal'
wastes treatment facilities, it is found that of Jj-0 municipalities dis-
charging wastes to streams, 13 provide primary treatment, and lk secondary
treatment. Information now available indicates that an estimated BOD
population equivalent of 3^-0,000 now reaches the Housatonic waters com-
pared to 200,000 P.E. in 195*+•
Present data on industrial wastes in Massachusetts are very limited. How-
ever, it is known that 8 paper mills discharge wastes to the Housatonic
River in Massachusetts. (See Appendix III)
-11-
-------
In the Connecticut portion of the Housatonic Basin the vastes from 58 of 97
industrial sources were classified in the 1962 Connecticut Inventory of
Industrial Wastes as "being "a serious problem". These waste flows were
estimated to average "jh .mgd. Of the 58 industries, only k are known to
provide treatment. Screens and settling are used to treat approximately
9,^00,000 gallons at one plant, settling and neutralization to treat 1,800
gallons at a second, neutralization to treat 31,750 at a third, and filters
totreat 123,000 gallons at a fourth plant. This amounts to approximately
12.8 per cent of the total of the flows classified as "serious problems."
A breakdown of Connecticut industries by name, type, quantity, and nature
of wastes, etc., is available in Appendix III.
Since the beginning of the Federal grants program for wastes treatment
facilities construction in 1956, six Connecticut communities (Bethel,
Morris, New Milford, Plymouth, Thamaston, Watertown Fire District) have
received grant offers totaling $9^0,862 to build approximately $3,6^0,000
worth of facilities. Six grant offers have been made to three Massachusetts
communities (Dalton, Lenox, Pittsfield} in the amount of $1,277,687 to
build approximately $6,155,000 worth of facilities. Seven of these 12
projects are complete, three are under construction and two are in the
grant offer stage.
3. Connecticut River Basin
In 195^, there were 1*95 separate significant sources of sewage and
industrial wastes discharged to watercourses in the Connecticut River Basin.
Sewage pollution came from 236 sources of which there were l8U municipalities,
-12-
-------
10 resort hotels, two schools, two airfields, 14 institutions, and 2h
industries. The BOD population equivalent discharged frcta these 236
sources was three quarters of a million.
The 259 sources of industrial waste pollution were caused "by process wastes
discharged from U8 paper and allied product mills, b6 food and food products
plants, 1+3 textile mills, 62 fabricated metal products plants, 32 sawmill
and wood products mills, six chemical plants, five primary metal processing
plants, four leather and leather products plants, and 13 miscellaneous
plants. The 15^ organic sources of industrial wastes contributed 1.75
million BOD population equivalent. The 105 sources of predominently
inorganic wastes contributedchemicals, oils, acids, solids, and toxic
substances.
At the time of the NENYIAC Report, the above sources of pollution resulted
in widespread pollution throughout the "basin, "but the largest amounts were
in the lower third of the basin (Holyoke-Springfield, Massachusetts area
to mouth) where population and industry were most concentrated. Of the
212 sources of sewage in 195^ (omitting 2k industries) only UU had treat-
ment. Three primary and one secondary plant operated in New Hampshire and
Veimont. In the Connecticut and Massachusetts portion of the basin there
were 21 primary and 19 secondary municipal wastes treatment plants.
From the 1962^Inventory of"Municipal Wastes Treatment Facilities in the
Massachusetts and Connecticut portion of this basin, it is found that of
95 municipalities discharging wastes to streams, Ul provide primary treatment
-------
and 26 secondary treatment. An estimated 62^000 BOD population
equivalent is discharged from these municipal plants.
In 1962 in the Massachusetts portion of the Connecticut Basin, industries
vere known to have separate discharges to streams in the Basin. Of these
industries 27 had no waste treatment or other known inplant pollution
control measures and the remaining IT provided waste treatment or
control by such methods as save-alls, flotation, lagoons, controlled
flow, acid cracking, and phenol recovery. A breakdown of these industries
by name, type, and treatment is available in Appendix III.
' —
In the Connecticut portion of the Connecticut Basin, the waste from 39 of
99 industrial sources were classified in the 1962 Connecticut Inventory
of Industrial Wastes as being "a serious problem". These waste flows
were estimated to average some 11,250,000 gallons per day. Of the
39 industries, only one is known to provide any treatment and only screens
are used in this case for the approximately 90*000 gpd involved. This
amounts to less than one per cent of the total of the flows classified
as "serious problems". BOD population equivalents are not available, but
a breakdown of these industries by name, type, quantity, and nature of wastes,
etc., is available in Appendix III.
Since 1956 when the Federal program for waste treatment facilities was
initiated, five Connecticut communities and one hospital (Glastonbury,
Rockville, Rocky Hill, Tariffville, Windsor Locks, Middletown Hospital)
in the Connecticut River Basin have received grant offers totaling $915, W-l
-Ih-
-------
to build facilities costing approximately $3,1^2,000. Twenty-nine
grant offers have been made to IT Massachusetts communities in the
Connecticut River Basin (Agawam, E.Longmeadow, Easthampton, Greenfield,
Hadley, Holyoke, Longmeadow, Ludlow, Montague, Northampton, Russell,
South Hadley, Springfield, Sunderland, West Springfield, Warren, Ware)
in the amount of $^,l6l,912 to build facilities costing approximately
$11,250,000. Seventeen of these projects are complete, twelve are
under construction, and six are in the grant offer stage.
3. Thames River Basin
In 195^, there were 135 separate sources of sewage and industrial
wastes pollution in Thames River Basin. The Hop River was the only
tributary not transporting pollution. Fifty-four of these sources were
sanitary sewage which included 2k municipalities (26 sources), 22 industrial
plants, U institutions, and 2 military establishments. Wastes with a BOD
population equivalent of 113,50° were discharged to the streams from these
fifty-four sources.
Of the 8l industrial sources of pollution, 5^ vere textile mills, 8 paper
mills, 8 fabricated metal industries and 11 miscellaneous sources. The
total BOD population equivalent of organic wastes was estimated at 3^0>000«
From the 1962 Inventory of Municipal Wastes Treatment Facilities, it is
found that of 26 municipalities discharging wastes to streams, 16 provide
primary and 5 secondary treatment. Information now available indicates
that an estimated BOD population equivalent of 77,000 now reaches the
Thames River Basin from these municipalities.
-15-
-------
In 1962, the Massachusetts portion of the Thames Basin was known to
have 12 separate industrial wastes discharges to streams in the Basin.
Of these industries, three had no treatment and the remaining nine
received treatment by lagoons, settling, and secondary treatment. A
breakdown of these industries "by name, type, and treatment is presented
in Appendex III.
In the Connecticut portion of the Thames Basin, the wastes from ^3 of 68
industrial sources discharging to Basin ; streams were classified in the
1962 Connecticut Inventory of Industrial Wastes as "being a "serious
problem". Waste flows from the ^3 industries were estimated to average
some 26 mgd. Only six are known to provide any treatment. Flotation was
used to treat 5 mgd; settling, emulsion breaking, and flotation were used
to treat 2 mgd; emulsion breaking was used to treat l.U mgd; settling was
used to treat 0.7 mgd; and centrifugation was used to treat 19,000 gallons.
This anounts to approximately 37 per cent of the total of the flows
classified as "serious problems". BOD population equivalents are not
available, but a breakdown of these industries by name, type, quantity,
nature of wastes, etc., is available in Appendix III.
In the Thames River Basin since 1956, five grant offers have been made to
four Connecticut communities (Danielson, Groton, Norwich, Willimantic)
totaling $965,9^0 "to fcullcl facilities costing approximately $3,321,000.
One grant offer in the amount of $5,670 has been made to a Massachusetts
community in this Basin (Dudley) to construct a facility costing $18,900.
-16-
-------
Two of these six projects have "been completed, three are under construction,
I
and one is in the grant offer stage.
WATER QUALITY
1. Sources of Information
The U.S. Public Health Service maintains on the Connecticut River,
two water quality monitoring stations in Connecticut and Massachusetts.
One station near Northfield, Massachusetts is immediately "below the point
where the stream enters Massachusetts. The Connecticut station located
at Enfield Dam, Connecticut, is immediately below the Massachusetts-
Connecticut State line. Chemical, biological, physical, and radiological
data are collected at these stations. Water quality data collected by
the States of Massachusetts and Connecticut are available to the Public
Health Service upon request. Massachusetts has been especially helpful
in providing data that are available.
2. Housatonic River Basin
The Housatonic River at the Massachusetts-Connecticut State line has
been classified a Class B stream. Data collected by the State of
Massachusetts for the river near this point indicate that the water
generally meets this classification. Dissolved oxygen values have been
above 6 parts per million in the critical summer months. Coliform organisms
have met the State limit of 2,400 per 100 milliliters with one exception
of 3*900 per 100 milliliters.
-IT-
-------
In the headwaters of the Housatonic River near Pittsfield, Massachusetts,
the vater quality is poorer than at the "border. Industrial discharges
apparently result in the heaviest loading on the stream.
3- Connecticut River Basin
Quality of vater in the Connecticut River as this stream enters
Massachusetts is relatively good, except for "bacteria. Dissolved oxygen
ranges from approximately 7 parts per million (ppm) during the summer to
13 ppm-during the cold months. Coliform organisms, the "bacteria found in
the intestines of warm-blooded animals, at this point are higher than
desirable for "bathing and other recreation use of the Connecticut River.
Coliform values generally range between 1000 and 10, OOO*p^r' iters of
water.
Radioactivity in the Connecticut River as it enters Massachusetts is not
serious. Alpha radioactivity is negligible and dissolved beta radio-
activity, commonly associated with fallout, ranges from 0 to 30 micro
micro curies per liter. Physical characteristics of the water are good.
Turbidity is generally very low while color ranges between 10 and 30 units.
As the Connecticut River flows south, it passes through highly populated
and industrialized sections of Massachusetts, with associated effects on
the water quality.
At the present time, the levels of coliform organisms entering Connecticut
are higher than is desirable for recreational use of the stream. The median
-18-
-------
value of the 16 samples collected at the Public Health Service station
this year was 28,500 per 100 milliliters. A 36-hour "around the clock"
sampling program by the State of Massachusetts in September 19&3 indicated
a range from 29,000 to 550,000 coliform organisms per 100 milliliters in
the Connecticut River at Agawam, Massachusetts shortly above the
Massachusetts-Connecticut State line. (See figure on following page.)
Dissolved oxygen values at Enfield Dam during the past year have ranged from
h.J ppm during the warm months to 13 ppm during the cold months.
Recent dissolved beta radioactivity values have ranged from 0 to 60 micro
micro curies per liter. Alpha radioactivity was negligible. Turbidity
and tiolor values are low at the Connecticut-Massachusetts State line.
Near the mouth of the Connecticut River in Connecticut, the taking of shell-
fish is prohibited in all areas upstream of a line from the Breakwater
Light House to the most southerly point of Griswold Point.
4. Thames River Basin
The Quinebaug River and the French River are the principal tributaries
of the Thames River in Massachusetts. The Quinebaug River has been
classified as Class C at the State line while the French River has been
classified as Class D.
Color in the Quinebaug River is generally very high. This possibly is
caused by dye wastes from textile mills or rouge grindings. Other water
quality characteristics appear to be satisfactory at the State line. Local
-19-
-------
18 September 1963 19 September 1963
-------
areas, Immediately "below industrial discharges upstream from State line
in the Quinebaug River, have had pollution problems such as highly colored
waters or a lack of dissolved oxygen.
Available data from the Massachusetts Department of Public Health indicate
that the French River is in poor condition at the Massachusetts-Connecticut
State line. Biochemical oxygen demand is high with the result that dis-
solved oxygen is relatively low. The number of coliform organisms in the
stream is very high with many values being over 100,000 per 100 milliliters.
Color in the stream is also a problem with values ranging from 40 to
80 units. The French River at the State line has been classified as
Class D, "suitable for transportation of sewage and industrial wastes
without nuisance, and for power, navigation, and certain industrial uses.'r

PROGRAMS OPERATING IN AREA
1. Federal
The Department of Health, Education, and Welfare operates four
national water quality network stations in Nev England, three on the
Connecticut River and one on the Merrimack River. Locations of stations
on the Connecticut River are at Wilder, Vermont; Northfield, Massachusetts;
and Enfield Dam, Connecticut; and at Lowell, Massachusetts, on the
Merrimack River. Cooperating agencies are the Vermont Water Resources
Commission, New England Power Company, New Hampshire Water Pollution
Commission, Massachusetts Department of Public Health, Lowell, Massachu-
setts Water Department, Connecticut Light and Power Company, Connecticut
Water Resources Commission, and Wesleyan University. Data is published
each water year.
Municipal Water Facilities and Municipal Wastes Treatment Facilities
Inventories of the Department of Health, Education, and Welfare are
completed at 5-year intervals with the assistance of State health
departments and State water pollution control agencies. The latest
inventory on water was completed as of January 1, 19^2, and one for
wastes as of January 1, 1963.
Federal agencies participated in completing a wastes facilities inventory
on Federal installations during 1962.
-22-
-------
The Connecticut Water Resources Commission has, with assistance from the
Public Health Service, completed an industrial wastes inventory for the
State of Connecticut in 1962. The inventory is presently being printed
by the Public Health Service. State-wide data from other States are not
available.
The Array Corps of Engineers received funds in fiscal year 19^3 to begin
comprehensive planning for the Connecticut River and St. John River
Basins' water resources. An economic base study is being initiated.
The Department of Health, Education, and Welfare and other water
resource agencies will be participating with the Corps of Engineers in
this study. The Department of Health, Education, and Welfare in the
President's fiscal year I96U budget has funds to support its activities
on comprehensive water quality planning in the New England River Basins.
The Division of Water Supply and Pollution Control carries out a program
of scientific research in the causes and effects of pollution and methods
of its control. This program, carried out at the Robert A. Taft Sanitary
Engineering Center In Cincinnati over many years, has developed and is
developing tools having broad application in the control of water pollu-
tion. Examples of a few of the many findings now being applied in New
England include the following:
a. Development of the membrane filter technique for rapid bacterio-
logical examination of water.
-23-
-------
b. Procedure for detection and measurement of organic chemical
compounds, including pesticides, first, by chromatographic separation
and, second, by carbon adsorption techniques.
c. Sewage treatment techniques including, first, effects of
substances of industrial origin, such as various cyanides and other
organic materials, on standard treatment processes; second, design
factors on low cost treatment, such as the stabilization pond; third,
resistance of common viruses to disinfection by chlorine; and fourth,
effectiveness of removal of viruses by soil in subsurface seepage
systems.
A more complete "Statement on Direct Federal Water Pollution Research
Activities" has been presented at the Washington hearings before this
Committee by Dr. Leon W. Weinberger. Practically all of the findings
described by Dr. Weinberger have found some application in New England.
Future water pollution control research, specifically related to New
England problems, will be carried out at the Regional Water Pollution
Control Laboratory in Boston for which land for construction has been
obtained.
Under Section 8 of the Federal Water Pollution Control Act, if the
Secretary of Health, Education, and Welfare, on the basis of reports,
studies, and surveys, has reason to believe that pollution originating
in one State endangers health or welfare of persons in another State,
he shall call a conference among the State water pollution control
-24-
-------
agencies, any interstate agencies involved, and the Department. The
Secretary, having such reason on the basis of reports, studies, and
surveys, has called a conference on the interstate waters of the
Connecticut River (Massachusetts-Connecticut) for December 2, 1963, to
be held in Hartford, Connecticut. Invited to participate are the water
pollution control agencies of Connecticut and Massachusetts, the New
England Interstate Water Pollution Control Commission, and representatives
of the Department. More complete data will be gathered by the Public
Health Service prior to the conference to aid in the evaluation of the
problem.
2. Interstate
The New England Interstate Water Pollution Control Commission was
authorized by Congress in 19Vf. The first. States to join this compact
through State legislative ratification were Connecticut, Massachusetts,
and Rhode Island. New York ratified the compact in 19^9, Vermont and
New Hampshire in 1951, and Maine in 1955- Compact affairs are adminis-
tered by the Commission which consists of five members from each of the
signatory States. A Technical Advisory Board, composed of the directors
of State water pollution control agencies, is responsible for the tech-
nical phases of the Commission's activities.
The role of the New England Interstate Water Pollution Control Commission
is to promote, formulate, and conduct a sound and integrated program for
use of interstate waters of the region. This is accomplished through
-25-
-------
information programs, research, and classification of interstate waters.
Each State is then responsible for bringing its portion of the classified
stream up to the classification approved. Under this program 22 inter-
state drainage basins in the compact area have been classified and nine
other basins have had classification studies completed or are now in
progress.
The New England Interstate Water Pollution Control Commission has
sponsored 22 regional type research projects since 19^9* Reports were
prepared on 10 of these studies. These projects have been conducted
through contractual arrangements with technical institutions in the
compact area. Funds for financing most of the projects have been
allotted to the Commission under the provisions of the Federal Water
Pollution Control Act.
3. State
All of the States in the New England area have official water
pollution control agencies responsible for the State's program. Federal
funds available and those actually utilized by these State agencies and
the New England Interstate Water Pollution Control Commission for fiscal
year 19^3 program operation are:

Daring fiscal year 1963, Connecticut, Rhode Island, and the New England
Interstate Water Pollution Control Commission failed to receive enough
State funds to match the Federal program grants allotted. Therefore, they
did not receive all Federal monies for which they were eligible.
In addition to classification, research, and pollution abatement through
the compact the States are conducting surveys and carrying out pollution
abatement on intrastate streams and coastal waters. Several of the States
support research on pollution problems within their State.
4. Local
Of the fiscal year 1963 $90 million appropriated by Congress under
the Federal Water Pollution Control Act (PL 84-660, as amended) to construct

COOPERATIVE ACTIVITIES
lo Federal
Cooperation on -water resource development and water quality control
result from the close -working arrangements between Federal agencies at the
field levelo Regional field offices are maintained, by several of the Federal
departments in the Boston metropolitan area. Inquiries about the Federal
programs are referred to the responsible agency and discussed where
appropriate«
In the development of plans for a Federal, water resource project, the
responsible agency requests the Department of Health, Education, and Welfare
to submit its views and interests as to 'whether the construction and/or
operation of the project will adversely affect water quality» Also by a
memorandum of understanding, the Corps of Engineers requests that the needs
for water supply storage be evaluated in its multi-purpose reservoir projects»
Similar requests on effects on water quality are initiated by Soil Conser-
vation Service., Federal Power Commission, and the Department of the Interior
on its projectso Close coordination in project development must be maintained
in order that the best quality of water may be made available for all legiti-
mate useso
Since 1955> "the Department of Health, Education, and Welfare commented on a
total of 65 Corps of Engineers and Soil Conservation Service water resource
projects in the Housatonic, Connecticut, and Thames River Basins. To our
knowledge, none of these projects have or are expected to create a water
quality problem»
=¦29"
-------
In addition, many problems of mutual interest are discussed very early in
the planning stage through an interagency group in Sew England <, This organi~
zation entitled the Northeastern Resources Committee is composed of repre-
sentatives from seven Federalagencies (Department of Agriculture, Department
of the Army, Department of Commerce, Department of Health, Education, and
Weifare, Department of the Interior^ Department of Labor, and Federal Power
Commission) and the sjbc JJew England States» The interchange of ideas and
information at these 'Water Resources Committee meetings has been extremely
valuable in establishing closer ¦working relations among State and Federal
agency representatives., These meetings have also given the members an
opportunity to understand other agency responsibilities and duties in the
development of 'water and natural resources within these New England States»
2« State and Interstate Agencies
Data gathered through the .facilities inventories, contract awards publi-
cations j, and water quality network program are made available to State and
interstate agencies for their program planning and operation.. As research
information and general information are published, it i.s also made available
to these agencies® Exhibit material and pamphlets are provided for public
educations.! programs 0 Recently the 19&3 "Clean Water" television^radio
program 'as initiated nationwide and the New England States agreed to handle
all inquiries generated by ito
In the review cf Federal water resource projects, contact is made with the
State agencies having responsibility for water supply planning, water quality
control, and public health. Their interests and responsibilities are
-------
discussed, evaluated, and included in Water Supply and Pollution Control
review procedures <>
State program plans are reviewed annually to determine if these plans meet
requirements for Federal program grants. By coordinated review and
discussion with the States,? it "becomes much easier to integrate Federal and
State activities in controlling water pollution problems . Reasonable time
and priority schedules can then he developed and an orderly attack made on
the region11 s water pollution problems.
3» Municipalities
Local problems of industries and municipalities are generally handled by
the State agencies. Occasional new or unusual problems require knowledge and
capabilities beyond the State's resources * Upon request, the Water Supply and
Pollution Control program then provides technical assistance on the problem.
