Divers Near Venice Waterline Break And Canal Plan
Divers work on a 12 inch Venice water pipe break near East Venice Avenue bridge with two water lines in operation. The project could stop dredge work if the lower line breaks again before the newer canal line under the cut becomes active. Water is drawn from well fields east of town to supply the city. Dirt and rock over the pipe required divers to remove stones larger than five inches to allow emergency pumping.
