Sewer Construction is the making of a pipe
that will carry waste from one place to another.
Then to a plant to be treated. The waste is then
put back into the enviroment. Without sewers
the land, water, and airwill be polluted.
Ever since the 1900's sewers have helped
and hurt the earth. In 1961 the sewer that
West Philly built for Mill Creek broke.
Streets, houses, and cars that were over the
pipe fell, because of the workers not supporting
it well. It caused a 50-foot hole in the street
