A concrete sewer discharges its ordinary flow of sewage into the channel to the intercepting sewer running off to the left. When sufficient storm water comes to overflow the dam seen in the foreground, the excess runs off in the overflow sewer under construction at the right. Circa 1915. Source: J. F. Springer, "Methods of Concrete Sewer Construction," Municipal Engineering, Volume LI, No. 2 (August 1916), p. 47. |
