In addition to the above work there have been supervised the following mosquito 

 control projects: Cape Cod Project comprising the fifteen towns of Barnstable County, 

 Nantucket Project, and the Belmont Project. In these three projects the total ex- 

 penditure for the year was $40,566.12. 



The Board has also made numerous surveys and layouts for cities and towns which 

 were desirous of securing WPA prqjects for carrying out mosquito control operations. 

 The Works Progress Administration of Massachusetts has insisted that all such pro- 

 jects should be endorsed by the Reclamation Board before they could be put in opera- 

 tion, so that many requests were received for assistance and advice in making pro- 

 ject proposals for this type of work. Assistance in preparing these proposals was 

 given to the following towns during the fiscal year 1938: 



Braintree Quincy W. Springfield 



Framingham Revere Westwood 



G. Barrington Scituate Weymouth 



Nantucket Seekonk Winchester 



Norton Springfield

 following towns and cities : 



Ashland Longmeadow Rowley 



Brockton Nantucket Salisbury 



Canton Needham Sunderland 



Dartmouth Newbury Wareham 



East Longmeadow Norwood West Bridgewater

Requests were received from the boards of selectmen of the following towns and
