Construction crews puncture water pipeline
–On Tuesday of last week, construction crews working in the Wellsona area around 1 p.m., punctured a three-inch hole into the Nacimiento Water Project pipeline, spilling over one million gallons of water, according to a report by KSBY.
Public works crews reportedly rushed to the scene and closed Monterey Road near the breach within an hour. A shutoff valve was also activated remotely, stopping the water’s flow through the pipe.
