Item (ii). The sullage water from this lot was discharged into the nullah, causing objectionable smells in the hot weather. It was considered advisable to connect the house drains with the sewer which discharges over the cliff near R.B.L. 28.
Item (iii). This work was rendered necessary by the erection of a number of buildings on the ridge referred to. The sewer was extended from opposite the approach road to Inland Lot 1911 at the north end of the ridge.
Item (iv). This extension became necessary on account of the erection of three large blocks of quarters for Subordinate Officers at Breezy Point. It conveys all the storm-water from the area occupied by the quarters and from the adjoining road.
Item (v). This extension was required to intercept the sullage water from certain quarters on the Standard Oil Co.'s property at Kennedy Town.
Item (vi). In consequence of the erection of houses on the western section of Conduit Road, it became necessary to extend the sewer across the bridge which spans the ravine to the westward of Inland Lot 703. The portion crossing the bridge is laid with cast iron pipes, supported on the outer edges of the piers, the remainder being of stoneware pipes. It is capable of extension westwards to Inland Lot 1889.
Item (vii). This extension was necessitated by the erection of 7 houses in North Street to be used as fat-boiling factories. The sewer was extended from Catchick Street.
Item (viii). This was rendered necessary owing to extensions of the reclamation at this point.
