Abstract: A clamp mechanism for an adjustable torsion bar of a boat lift. The torsion bar includes square tubes which fit together telescopically to allow the torsion bar length to be adjusted. Each clamp mechanism includes a pair of opposing angle members lined on the inside faces of their flanges with plates which extend along a part of the length of each flange. The angle members are applied in opposition to one another with the inside faces of the flanges directly against the larger tube and the plates against the smaller tube. The angle members are clamped to the tubes by nuts and bolts applied to lugs which project from the angle members.

Abstract: A system and method for treating "septage" (i.e., wastewater collected from septic tanks and similar installations) utilizes a reactor tank for treating the anaerobic wastewater with an oxygen-containing fluid so as to substantially increase the dissolved oxygen content and thereby render the wastewater aerobic and suitable for input into a municipal wastewater treatment facility. Volatile gases are drawn off from all of the reactor tanks and placed into a treatment tank for a reduction of the bacterial and odor levels by reaction with a chlorine-containing water output of the municipal wastewater treatment facility.
