Water leak lowers Mazon pressure stumps village efforts
For more than two weeks Mazon has suffered reduced water pressure as officials search for an underground leak. Engineering consultant Michael Price says the village loses about 30,000 to 40,000 gallons daily while attempts to locate the source along Braceville Road and near Mazon Grade School, and with an Ottawa leak detector, have failed. The seven wells produce 70 to 75 gallons per minute, but pressure remains low even as pumps continue delivering water. Possible fixes include advanced leak equipment or digging up field tiles after the creek recedes.
