437 Mr. Heustis explained that some of the Food Establishment owners had requested the Board of Health issue signs for post- ing in their stores stating "No Dogs Allowed". He explained that customers do bring their dogs into the stores and the NO DOGS owners do have a problem explaining that dogs are not allowed ALLOWED in food stores. The Board approved having appropriate signs made and dis- tributed to all Food Establishments. Mr. Heustis reported that he and Mr. Lambie went to a hear- EDISON ing held by the Conservation Committee on an intent of the Bos- HEARING ton Edison Co. to alter certain wet lands in the vicinity of the Sanitary Landfill on Hartwell Ave. The Edison Co. wants to build a sub -station in this area and would be filling in about 4 acres of land for a depth of about 6 feet. The Conservation Committee had asked for our recommendation. Mr. Lambie said he wrote a letter to the Conservation Com- mittee after the hearing but he felt that Boston Edison should look for another site because the filling of the area proposed could create a threat of flooding in the area. Mr. Heustis said the Conservation Committee was pleased that the Board had attended this meeting and that they had denied the Boston Edison Co., permission to alter the wetlands. Dr. Cosgrove asked what the status of the pumping station PUMPING was at the present time. STATION Mr. Heustis said the motors on the pumps had burnt out twice during the past wet period but the contractor was responsible for this problem right now. When the repairs are completed it should give the relief needed at the pumping station. The con- tractor is a little behind on the work due to trouble getting parts and etc., but now things should move along weil.
