“Dear PoPville,
They are draining the same pipe at 15th and N again for the fourth or fifth time in 2 years.”
In 2011 DC Water told us they were fixing a leaking 72-inch water main. Regarding the photos here, DC Water says:
“This work is related to our large crosstown main which has been out of service for maintenance. They are draining it first so it can be chlorinated and then put back into service.”
