Water (continued from page 1) “I've had water in my basement for two weeks,” said Jones, who works for a different water com- pany. He said he knows the water is not from a spring because his water pulsates out of the faucets. "Whenever it pulsates it's a defi- nite sign of a leak,” he said. Gemberling said he {oo has no- ticed his water pulsate. The Kingston Twp. road crew stopped by Woodbine Rd. on Mon- day to assess the water flowing into the street. Ifit freezes it could spread across the roadway and become a danger to drivers. Gary Nawrocki, executive vice president of NUI, issued a state- ment via a fax to The Dallas Post Monday. “Within the past several days NUI has dug over 60 ft. of main line in an effort to locate what appeared to be a leak in Midway Manor. . Alter exposing this much pipe, and then shut- ting ofl some valves on the sys- tem, it was established that the water continued to run in the dug out section. It appears that there might be a spring in that area of Midway Manor,” Nawrocki's fax stated. : Gemberling said that NUI did turn ofl the water main and the flow of water appeared to slow down immensely and sped up again once the water was turned back on. « NUI' will be back to “search for either a leak or the location of a spring, if that's what it is.” Nawrocki said something will be done by the middle of this week. et SE SIS PSR RE A HE NE SE SS SRP SE NY SS NP h DAV National Headquarters, P.O.
