"Herein following is a thesis on the West Side Sewage Treatment Works of the Sanitary District of Chicago. I have endeavored to cover a large field in one thesis, but think is giving the material I have, the fundamental points have been covered. The local need of sewage treatment is so involved with county, state, Federal, and even International issues that to write solely of local conditions would be to leave out the main part of the story. So, in writing, I have tried to dover enough of the subject to give the historical facts along with the construction side of the project. This thesis does not go into detail on any subject but tries to cover the story of the work, the reasons for the work, and the results attained" – Preface, p. 2.
