Letter: Sewage Overflow Requires Collaboration
To the Editor: As cited in last week’s article, “Keeping Sewage Out of River by 2035,” the sewage pipes under the streets of Old Town were laid in 1890 to remove both storm water and human waste.

Solving the problem will require 21st century thinking and collaboration.
