Urgent Nuisances:
During 1963 the following urgent matters were dealt with as
prescribed by the London County Council (General Powers) Act 1955 by
the service of notices on the persons responsible.
Choked drains 9 (in 8 cases the drains were cleared
by the owners within the 48 hour
period. In the remaining instance
the work was carried out by the
Council and charged to the owner).
Other urgent defects 1 (this was a leaking water service
pipe and was remided by the Council
and made a charge on the property).
Drainage Work:
Extensive rebuilding and alteration of existing industrial,
commercial and residential properties has been going on since the war
and continues to take place. This necessitates numerous visits to
building sites and discussions relating to compliance by building contractors
with the London County Council Drainage and W.C. Bye-Laws.
Seventy-four drainage plans were approved by the Council during
1963. and 2,993 visits were made by the Public Health Inspectors in
connection with the supervision of work in progress. The following
table is an indication of the extent of the work carried out during the
year.
