As part of the fix, Champlain Water District lowered the water pressure in one of their main lines, which caused low pressure in the southwestern part of Town.

The Champlain Water District has found a water break in Fort Ethan Allen. The break is located on their 16 Inch transmission main behind Finke Equipment, 429 Troy Avenue. Work will begin this morning which will require a shut down of the 16 Inch main that runs along Troy Avenue. Two Champlain Water District customers will be without water until the repair has been completed, the VTrans District 5 garage and the Vermont Public Radio building, both located on Troy Avenue. Water at these two locations will be turned off starting at 12:00 pm today.
