UPDATE: At 6:30 PM the District repair crew began flushing the lines on Sunnyside in the process of re-pressurizing after completing the repair of the Main. Both booster pump stations at Vista Heights and Grouse Meadows were being checked around 7:30 PM to determine if the pumps needed to be primed to bring back on line. Pressures should begin to recover to normal levels in all areas of the District over the next few hours.
---------------------------------------------------
The District is responding to a large leak in the main at E Sunnyside and Capt. John Mullan. In order to isolate it and get the main repaired, several valves will be need to be turned off to preserve the reservoir storage while the work is done.
ALL OF THE EAST AND SOUTH SIDE OF THE DISTRICT FROM CAPT. JOHN MULLAN WILL BE AFFECTED, INCLUDING SUNNYSIDE, BONNELL, VISTA LOOP, HIGHVIEW AND KINGSWOOD.
ETR (Estimated Time of Restoration) is 5:00 PM this evening, but may be earlier if the repair goes better than anticipated.
