The pipe that burst was about 100 years old.

I wonder how much that will deplete the reservoirs for the area. Calif is still under drought conditions right? Last edited by Kerrmudgeon; 07-29-2014 at 11:23pm. |

The news story should be that LA is relying on a 100 year old main line. That it burst is pretty much "Duh" |

Often this sized 'pipe' isn't really pipe at all. It's rolled steel with a welded seam. Basically garbage.

Considering all of the underground infrastructure is anywhere from 50-125 years old, this is going to become more and more commonplace in the future. And when you combine that with the fact that this city blatantly mismanages money it's a recipe for disaster.
We can't even fix our roads, let alone 500 square miles of underground water and sewage pipes. |

I heard today on the radio that it more than 20 million gallons. Also heard that the DWP policy on replacement/upgrades is 300 years. LOL
