MAIN BREAK AT THE INTERSECTION OF 18TH AND LAWRENCE STREETS AND EWING STREET, N.E., UNDER REPAIR

January 06, 2005

DC Water and Sewer Authority crews are in the process of locating and repairing an 8-inch water main break that flooded the intersection of 18th and Lawrence Streets and Ewing Street.

Some residential customers experienced no or low pressure following the break this morning. But pressure is now restored and full water service available.

Some businesses in the immediate area of the break, however, will be without water during the repair.

Water service to these customers is expected to resume within the next six to eight hours.
