Water-main break closes 7th Avenue in downtown Phoenix
A decades-old water-main burst in downtown Phoenix on Tuesday, flooding Seventh Avenue just north of Interstate 10 and closing part of the roadway, officials said.
Authorities expect northbound Seventh Avenue to be closed well past the evening rush hour.
A city spokeswoman said the 12-inch water main burst Tuesday afternoon, the pressure which caused northbound lanes of Seventh Avenue to buckle between I-10 and Willetta Street. Motorists are encouraged to avoid the area.
Troy Hayes, an engineer for the City of Phoenix, confirmed that the water main was originally installed in the 1930s.
Employees of the city's Water Services Department are working to stop the flooding and repair the main break, the spokeswoman said.
Most of the flooding occurred on Willetta Street, where Matthew Gibeau has lived for 19 years.
"First time I've seen it like this," said Gibeau, 53. "Looks like the Mississippi."
Gibeau said he walked out of his backyard to see water flowing in the roadway and skimming the curbs. The flooding mostly stayed to the street and did not extend over sidewalks or onto residential property.
Gibeau said he was disappointed to see all that water go to apparent waste.
"I think we have just wasted our water supply for the summer."

New Jersey Water Main Break Sends Water Gushing like Geyser (Jul 3)
A large water-main break this afternoon caused water to shoot 10-15 feet in the air, prompting the closure of all exit ramps from Route 1 to Ryders Lane.
The geyser-like break occurred on Ryders Lane near Labor Road and Route 1 ramps, North Brunswick officials stated in an email alert.
Water gushed through a gaping hole in the road, pushing out rocks and debris. Before the road was closed, several rocks reportedly struck passing cars.
Officials in several townships have asked drivers to plan alternate routes as crews worked to stem the rushing water.
In East Brunswick, Ryders Lane is closed from Tices Lane to Route 1in both directions.
“The roadway is presently closed and expected to remain closed for the foreseeable future,” Rutgers police stated in an e-mail alert.

State of Emergency in Rotterdam Because of Water Main Breaks
ROTTERDAM, N.Y. -- A state of emergency is now in effect in Rotterdam because of a series of water main breaks. The biggest happened around 3:30 a.m. on Princeton street and then three more followed throughout the day.
It's estimated about 22,000 people are without water because of the breaks.
The breaks are being reported at Schermerhorn Road, the Corner of Bernard Street and Wallace Ave, and Princetown Road.So not only is the water shut off, but a lot of streets are closed because of the construction. A lot if the Rotterdam residents are realizing just how much they take water for granted.
"I mean everyone here is, they are not bathed, they are very dirty civilians right now," said a civilian.
Not bathing is definitely a concern for a lot of people. On a more serious note, especially with this heat, the town is asking people to check on their elderly neighbors or anyone who isn't able to come out and get water for themselves.
For people that do have water, the health department said to boil it for at least one minute before using it to cook or clean.
It's expected that the breaks will be repaired by midnight Tuesday, but the town said it does not expect to have clean water into homes until Thursday.
In the meantime, there is a water tanker at the Curry Road Shopping Center filled with 8,000 gallons of water. People are bringing whatever kind of containers they have to fill up.
The tank will be available until 10 p.m. Monday, and again starting Tuesday at 8 a.m.

Family’s Home Destroyed By Water Main Break
PITSBURGH (KDKA) – A family lost everything as water poured into their basement early Sunday morning in Lincoln Place.
Lisa DonGiovanni panicked when she heard, and then saw, hundreds of gallons of water from a broken main on Mifflin Road rushing down the hillside.
It was headed straight for her home on Keefe Street.
“It was like a river,” DonGiovanni said. “It just came down through the two yards and down into our driveway.”
Within minutes, her basement was filled with 3 feet of water, lifting her freezer and refrigerator. DonGiovanni managed to save her TV, but everything else in her basement was destroyed.
“We lost everything,” she said, “our furniture. It’s a finished basement. Our furniture, our washer, our dryer, I don’t know if the insurance company – the water company – I don’t know where I’m going to go.”
In addition, decorations and table cloths she had purchased for an upcoming graduation party were also floating in the basement. Flood waters also caused heavy damage to a Ford Explorer parked in the garage.
“We’ll just start over,” DonGiovanni said. “Nothing you can do. I did my crying already this morning.”

Water Main Break Sends Gallons Gushing Into Air
AURORA, Colo. (CBS4)- A water main break sent thousands of gallons of water through the pavement and into the air in Aurora Thursday afternoon.
The water main break happened about 4:45 p.m. on Jamaica near Colfax Ave.
The break sent water gushing through the pavement and into the air until Aurora Water could shut down the line.
Greg Baker with Aurora Water said residents in 13 apartment buildings were left without water for a time until crews brought in an alternative source for water.
Water was restored but residents were encouraged not to shower during repairs. They could flush toilets and the water was safe to drink.
Repairs to the water main could last until 2 a.m. Friday but crews were working to get water restored to everyone as quickly as possible.
What caused the break is being investigated.

Large water main break affects many Beaver County residents
Aliquippa residents say break on Tyler Avenue is one of several during last few months
A giant water main break that left thousands of Beaver County residents with no water or with low pressure has been repaired, the Municipal Water Authority of Aliquippa said Monday.
Water is being restored to all of the affected areas, but residents are asked to conserve water as repairs are ongoing, the water authority said.
Heather Vono lives on Tyler Street where the break occurred.
"It's disappointing because this is the fourth break on the same street in six months and in some point in time, the return on investment has to be, 'Let's stop paying double time, time and a half, to external contractors who don't reside in the city and replace the line,'" said Vono.
VIDEO: Watch Amber Nicotra's Report
The MWAA released a statement saying the break affected approximately 1,500 to 2,000 customers in the city of Aliquippa and in Hopewell, Raccoon and Potter townships.
"We have no clue when we're going to have water again. We can't wash clothes, we can't shower, we really can't do anything," said Renee Plevel, who was away when she heard about the break on Sunday. "We immediately started filling up 5-gallon buckets of water at camp to bring home with us."
Customers in emergency situations are advised to fill containers and jugs at the water plant on Hopewell Avenue and at water buffaloes at the Potter Township Fire Hall and the Raccoon Township Fire Hall, which was also affected by the break.
"We have low water. We have other stations on standby in case of any fires," said Raccoon Township supervisor Ed Malloy. "We're getting used to it. It happens quite often."
Residents said they're worried who will ultimately foot the bill for the repairs.
"Because it's the water authority, they are not part of the city. So, we're all very interested as to where that funding is going to come from to pay the contractors that are now on double time for the fourth break in six months," Vono said.

Water Main Break Floods Streets In South Philly
June 20, 2014 8:42 AMPHILADELPHIA (CBS) — A water main break in South Philadelphia early Friday morning damaged at least one home and created a traffic headache.
The fire department received a call at about 5:40 a.m. about a ruptured water main break at 2nd Street and Oregon Avenue.
Firefighters arrived at the scene and alerted neighbors to move their cars to avoid damage from the flowing water.
Crews with the water department eventually capped five valves and stopped the rushing flow of water. Water department officials said the main was 12 inches.
The streets impacted are the 200 block of Oregon Avenue, the 2600 block of St. Christopher Drive and the 2600 block of S. 3rd Street.
At least one home on St. Christopher Drive took in water.
As a result of the crash, Oregon Avenue westbound between 2nd and 3rd Streets is closed.
PECO crews were called to the scene to inspect a utility pole that was located right near where the main ruptured. It
is believed that the pole shifted as a result of the water and moving soil.Source: http://philadelphia.cbslocal.com/2014/06/20/water-main-break-floods...

Broken Water Main In Burbank Causes Street Flooding, Sinkhole
BURBANK (CBSLA.com) — Crews are cleaning up the mess from a broken water main Tuesday evening that created a sinkhole in the parking lot of the Burbank Fire Department’s training center.
Burbank police say the break was reported about 5:15 p.m., with water spewing into the streets surrounding Victory Boulevard and Ontario for at least three hours, causing a sinkhole spanning 20 feet long and 20 feet deep to form in the facility’s parking lot.
Burbank Fire Department Capt. Peter Hendrickson said buildings at the training facility were also affected.
“It shouldn’t be too much of a problem. The water flowed out of here into the streets and was handled by the flood-control system,” Hendrickson said. “The problem that we have is this is our training facility, and our EOC [Emergency Operations Center] and it is completely flooded. It has about 6 inches of water inside our classrooms.”
The Burbank fire captain said it’s unclear why the main broke. However, he said his department will be prepared Tuesday evening in the event of any major incident.
“We do have a backup EOC at our police station. So, if something happens tonight – earthquake, large fire, any type of major incident – we can open up our EOC at the police station,” Hendrickson said.
Dozens of neighbors took advantage of the deep runoff.
But police, who closed Ontario and Fairview streets between Victory Boulevard and Pacific Avenue, were forced to clear the area, citing fear of possible power lines that may hit the flowing water.
“We were all running around in the water. We had some donuts that we were surfing down. The kids had their boogie boards and they were surfing,” Alisabeth Boensel said, adding that it’s unfortunate so much water was wasted during a drought.
“It kind of sucks to lose all that water,” she said.
There were no reports of homes flooded in the area. However, it’s expected that 30 residences will not have water until possibly Wednesday morning.
The Department of Water and Power is working to determine the cause of the break.

Watermain Break Damages Road, Portion of Peach Street to Be Closed For Days
A watermain break causes a sinkhole to open up Tuesday, the size of an entire driving lane.
And that's all causing quite the traffic headache on a busy Erie road this week.
A 3-block portion of peach street, between 26th and 29th, will be closed for a couple days, as crews work to fix the road.
A watermain broke early Tuesday afternoon, and it caused some pretty bad damage to the road.
It happened along peach street, near 29th.
About 9 water works customers were left without water service in the area, but that's expected to come back sometime Tuesday evening.
The road though, could be closed until Thursday, while street crews work to repair it.
There hasn't been a significant change in temperatures. We're used to seeing the cold weather fluctuations cause watermain breaks, but without that, we wanted to know how this could've happened.
Erie Water Works CEO Paul Vojtek explains, "There's a lot of thing that can cause it. We're staring to see charges in the temp of the water. I noticed it probably went up 20 degrees from last week to this week, sometimes that causes air to be released," said Vojtek. "And usually when you see a big break like this, a lot of times that's related to in the lines. We've been doing some of flushing because we've seen the temperature changes," Vojtek added.
Again, the Water Works estimates the road to be closed to all traffic at least until Thursday.Source: http://www.erietvnews.com/story/25742752/watermain-break-damages-ro...
