City crews continue search for source of 'catastrophic' water main break
Source of break could take days to identify, mayor says
In this case, the affected water main is called the Bearspaw South Feeder Main, which Mackay called the "most critical" in Calgary's water system as it moves water to east and south parts of the city, away from the city's largest water treatment plant in north Calgary.
"If we are being very, very optimistic, and they can remove the water from the site and actually get in there and have a look at what's going on, it is possible that within the next day to two days they can identify the problem," Gondek said.

I am watching and listening to the Town Hall in Red Deer on X and covering a lot of good questions and panelists. Over 10,000 watching.
I wish the media would honestly cover it but it will be slammed on talk shows and newspapers.
I noticed that our membership is growing so people must be mentioning this group around. Welcome.
We have a few regular posters, but anyone can post, so if you come across something especially worth passing on, please do.
For those who may be new or who have been here for a while and never posted our group enjoys articles and other posts that provide a unique perspective and challenge the common narratives, fill in blanks, or simply entertain.
Readers 'like' some articles more than others, but 'liking' to me is more a sign that we found the article useful than that we agree with it. I often 'like' articles that i thought to be are quirky, off-base, or just plain wrong, but worth reading.
