I can’t help but wonder why one of the contractors hasn’t been held accountable for all the water main breaks. That section of pipe was replaced about 8 years ago, when the road was paved, and it’s probably broken a dozen times since then. I’m not sure who’s to blame, but something is obviously sub-standard and I’m getting tired of seeing a boil notice on 297A every 6 months.
The water main has broken at this same spot so many times. I think the grass just finished growing back after the last break.
