Water Distribution
Public Works crew responded to a water main break at the Lucky grocery/retail complex located at 3158 Contra Loma Boulevard. Upon arrival, the team determined the leak originated from an old isolation valve in the parking lot. The 3-inch gate valve was connected to an abandoned plastic water line that serviced a landscape irrigation system that had long been replaced with parking spaces. Since the retail complex no longer required, the connection crews started the process of removing the service line, and gate valve and a plug was installed on the city water main. We are pleased to report that the water service at the busy retail complex was not interrupted while the crews completed the repairs.
