you might be surprised

they can mat out onto the marsh with equipment and a joint of pipe that big is probably on the way already

maybe within 24-36 hours it could be up...maybe less

what are they saying?

They are anticipating Sunday for the repairs. The cranes will be coming in. The water has stopped flowing.

They are advising drinking bottled water and using boiled water.

They do have the equipment on hand. They're going to move a crane in but overhead power lines may cause a problem. The pipe was a few feet above the water but now the leak has flooded the creek up to the bottom. Plenty of different type specialty cranes are available as there's tons of bridgework being done in the area.
