Giant Seattle sink-hole halts growth. fears of more collapse

Seattle officials report a 145 foot deep crater 200 by 120 feet forming from the city’s largest trunk sewer. About 10 homes sit around the rim as repair crews rush to install a temporary by-pass to drain pools, disinfect, and save threatened houses. City engineer Roy Morse says a widened cave-in could trigger further collapses, potentially losing two or three homes immediately. A temporary line could be ready by Monday to restore sewer service.
