Description

This issue was called in to Public Utilities Thursday October 7th by Rick Dillard, former City of Pinellas Park Water Utilities Foreman of 38 years and Christine Britt Public Works. PCU dispatch advised that it was PP jurisdiction. We responded by explaining that our crew had been out and it was in fact PCU. Several phone calls were made back and forth with the employee consistently saying it was PP jurisdiction...not PCU. As of late Friday afternoon, the pipe was still profusely leaking.

To repeat, the location is at 62nd Street and Cedarbrook Drive where two sidewalks meet. You go down the path and about 100 feet off the walkway to the East there is a significant water break.

City of PP crew stubbed up the leak with stakes and put in orange reflective tape so your employees could find it easily. There was no obvious way to shut off the water break but it does need to be addressed. The employees did mention the water had a very stagnant odor. The pipe is PVC and at one point had been capped off.

Can someone please check to assure the work had been completed if not over the weekend, by today? Thank you.
