Henry Horstman of the county Soil and Water Conservation District brought commissioners up to date on the survey invited them on the tour of some of the township where the soil has been surveyed and classified. The survey will aid in the assessing of farm ground and is used by the Farmers Home Administration in making farm loans. Commissioners opened bids on three dump trucks and a new pickup truck. Because of the complexity off the bidding by some firms that included several alternate bids and options, the board took the bids under advisement and will announce successful bidders at the Sept. 20 meeting.
Those who submitted bids were Storey-Ford Lincoln Mercury Seymour; Ruddick's Garage Seymour; Poynter Chevrolet-Olds Seymour; Speedway International Trucks Indianapolis; UHL Truck Sales Palmyra; Zimmerman Sales and Service, Scottsburg; and Bob Thomas Chevrolet, Brownstown.

Reducing the board membership was approved by the Indiana Stream Pollution Control Board Aug. 26, according to Jeffrey A.
Nierman, the sewage district's attorney, who prepared and presented the resolution to council. The board was reduced because it was having difficulty getting a quorum to hold meetings. With a five board, only three members need be present to conduct business, Nierman said. The two men who were removed from the board were removed by the board. They were selected because of the unlikelihood of a sewage project happening in their districts, Nierman said after the meeting.

Sewell reported the state Board of Health has granted him a provisional second class sewage treatment management license until Dec. 23. The superintendent said he will test for a full license on Nov. 23.
