July 16, 2026: At approximately 3:55 AM, LADWP received notification of the water incident. Water crews immediately mobilized and began systematically shutting down large underground valves to stop water flow without causing further damage.
The ruptured pipe was a 1916 36-inch riveted steel pipe. LADWP crews are removing water from the area of the damaged pipe to assess the extent of the damage. Once the assessment is complete we will better understand the complexity of repairs needed to restore flow to the pipe.
