Them's the breaks

Workers with the Public Works Department move ground getting to a ruptured pipe under McKinnon Street on Tuesday. A resident had reported a possible rupture before the long weekend, this one on top of others around Wrangell last week. "We're not sure what it is, but there's water coming up," Public Works head Amber Al-Haddad commented as work was ongoing. While it could possibly be one of the city's problematic ductile iron mains acting up again, she mentioned another possibility was the distribution line that runs perpendicularly through Cow Alley.
