In the early morning of the 25s', one of the wastewater treatment plant operators noticed a water leak coming up through the ground beside the east gravel road between the#1 &#2 primary clarifiers. We traced the path of the water to determine if it had reached a storm drain. Once we confirmed the water's path a sample of the water was taken and brought back to the lab for analysis. It was determined that the water had low levels of chlorine present. At that time a call was placed to the Town of Canton Water Department to inform them of the water line break. The Town arrived on site promptly and turned the flow of water flow off to the W WTP effectively stopping the loss. They then began excavation of the area. After location of the line, a crack was observed in the city piping. The pipe was immediately repaired and put back in to service. No other leaks were observed. We were unable to determine the amount of water lost to the storm drain for this event but believe the impact,if any, was de minimus. If you have any questions or comments, please feel free to contact me at your earliest convenience.
