$1.25 LIH FRI Reservations About Hotel's Sewage Plans By Dan Fagin In a twist on the phrase "all dressed up and no place to go," a luxurious hotel in Islandia still lacks a sewage disposal system just five days before its scheduled grand opening. Developers of the 277-room Islandia Hilton want to truck its sewage to the Bergen Point Sewage Treatment Plant as an interim measure until a plant to handle toilet waste and other sewage is built at the hotel site. But state and Suffolk County environmental officials have nixed that plan. "We don't see a caravan of sewage trucks marching down to Bergen Point as a solution," said Aldo Andreoli, director of environmental quality of the Suffolk Department of Health. "We haven't even received the final designs for their sewage plant and they're already arranging their -cutting ceremony." Officers of Columbia-Sussex which owns the Islandia Hilton, would not discuss the issue, and said the hotel may still open Tuesday, as scheduled.

"Right now, I'm still not sure there's any problem at said company Vice President William Beagle. State and county officials said they are continuing to meet with Columbia-Sussex to try to work out a solution, but they said the Hilton won't be allowed to open until it hooks up to a sewage treatment plant that meets pollution-control standards. "'We just can't allow them to do anything else," said Phil Barbato, regional water engineer for the state Department of Environmental Conservation. Yesterday at the hotel, scores of carpenters and masons worked at a fever pitch, putting the final touches on the hotel's health club, banquet rooms, swimming pool and other facilities. The terraced lobby, 10 stories high, was fully enclosed only recently, and sparrows still perched on the ledge of the indoor fountain.

Outside, in the hotel's parking lot, the presence of a portable toilet served as a clear indication that the Hilton's sewage problems haven't been solved. Initially, officials said, the hotel had planned to build its own sewer plant. But county officials, who are promoting the concept of larger, regional sewage plants, instead urged the Hilton to share an old sewer plant that used to serve the now-demolished Colonie Hill catering complex. So Columbia-Sussex contracted with Pacific Ventures which had planned to expand and upgrade that plant as part of its proposal to build another hotel and a condominium complex on Suit in Student's father Yeshiva says Long Beach By Michael Slackman The father of a boy murdered two years ago at a Long Beach yeshiva is suing the school for $15 million, saying he has no other choice because school officials have refused to help find his son's killer. Anton Weiss claims in the civil suit served against the school last week that his 15-year-old son, Chaim, was murdered on Halloween night "solely as a result of the negligence, carelessness and recklessness" of school officials at Mesivta of Long Beach.

The school is guilty of "reckless disregard for human safety," the lawsuit contends.
