It is being reported that there has been as many as eight (8) water main breaks throughout the City of Los Angeles this morning thus far. (Blog entry at 0930 local time.) Good Day LA (Fox television channel 11), reported that there has been five water main breaks and that L.A. Dept. of Water and Power (DWP) – according to the Fox 11 reporter – suggests that the multiple breaks are likely a result of work done while taking a local water reservoir off-line and then placing it back on-line to the water main system. Of course, as yet, no one appears to know the actual reason for all the water main breaks this morning.
Again, the level of deterioration of Our Nation’s infrastructure is nearly disgusting, at least to this blogger. Again I blog: Rebuild the Nation’s Infrastructure or Repeal the Eleventh Amendment to the Federal Constitution!!
AVT, P.E.
