HERBERT R. O'CONOR, GOVERNOR. 1777

within or without the Sanitary District. For the purpose of ac-
quiring a site for an incinerator or incinerators or other refuse
disposal plants, and for the purpose of securing land for the
disposition of garbage, trash, or junk, the Commission shall
have the same right to condemn land as it now has under
existing law for the condemnation of land for the construction
of its water and sewer lines, which right shall extend to any
needed land beyond the boundaries of the Sanitary District.

For the purpose of defraying the cost of such construction,
Including the necessary equipment and accessories, the Com-
mission is authorized to issue its bonds or notes under its
hand and seal, in a sum not to exceed $200, 000. with interest
not to exceed 5% per annum, maturing serially, in such
amounts annually as may be fixed by said Commission, but
all payable within a period of twenty years from date, and
said bonds or notes shall be sold as the General Construction
bonds of said Commission are now sold; and for the purpose
of paying interest on said bonds and principal of the same
as they become due, said Commission is authorized to make
and fix a reasonable schedule of charges for the reception and
disposal of all garbage, trash, rubbish, refuse or junk. The
receipts therefrom, including the permit fees heretofore au-
thorized, after the payment of the costs of operation shall
be applied toward the payment of principal and interest, and
in the event that the net proceeds of said fees and charges
are not enough to meet the carrying charges of said bonds
or notes, said Commission is authorized to pay the difference
out of the general water receipts provided for in Chapter 122
of the Acts of 1918; provided, however, that in the event
part of the said water receipts is used for the carrying charges
of said bonds or notes, the Commission shall adjust the water
rates, either consumption charge or service charge, in its dis^
cretion, on all property served by the Commission to the extent
necessary to meet said adjustment, which charges may be
changed from year to year under the provisions of Chapter 122
of the Acts of 1918, as amended.

The Commission may exempt from the operation of this
sub-title, with the approval of the County Health Officer, any
person, firm or institution residing in the above defined
boundaries, engaged in feeding garbage to hogs.

Any person violating the provision of this section shall be
guilty of a misdemeanor and upon conviction thereof, shall be
fined not less than five nor more than fifty dollars, or by im-
prisonment for not more than 30 days, or both, in the dis-
cretion of the Court.

1007B. It shall be the duty of the Washington Suburban
Sanitary Commission to construct, as soon as practicable, on
some convenient site to be selected by it, an incinerator of a
