Waterline leak

SALEM

Some city residents were without water for a brief time Tuesday morning and water pressure was low throughout the city when a waterline off West State Street sprung a leak about 8 a.m.

A spokesman for the Salem Water Department said houses in the area of East Fourth Street were without water while repairs were being made, but that the major leaks were stopped by 9 a.m., according to 21 WFMJ-TV, the Vindicator’s broadcast partner.

An estimated 400,000 gallons of water were lost.

It took water department crews about eight hours to complete repairs. No boil alert was issued.
