Good morning,

Can someone help me understand what is happening and why we are at this point?

It is well known the ROW has had continuous problems for years, and as a result of this ticket, the COB dug up the ROW-Sinkhole and buried it with topsoil/hay.
The ticket was closed on May 19.

Less than two weeks later, the problems continued, and the COB has been re-excavating the ROW-Sinkhole that was just filled.
Ticket # 3337018 is listed as closed even though the 2nd round of construction has been going on for the last week.

I appreciate any intel to help understand what is going on and why the problems continue.

Best regards,
Sarah

Good morning Don,

Thank you so much for your prompt response to this matter. Seeing the ticket closed so quickly for the sinkhole in the Right of Way was a surprise!

I appreciate your explanation of an investigation process and that the area has had additional sinkholes. You mentioned an engineer is assigned to review this; who would that be, and will he come to the property in person?

I welcome the opportunity to make time available to meet him in person at the property.

Best regards,
Sarah

Ms. Zeeman, Thank you for bringing this to our attention.  I talked to the Engineer that was assigned to this.  He was a little surprised to find out the service request had been closed as he did not close it.  It’s an open issue and is being investigated.  They are trying to determine whether there is a problem with the storm pipe or if something else is causing the sinkhole.  Apparently this is not the first time a sinkhole has opened up in the area and that’s why they are evaluating it for other possible problems.  The service request will be reopened and an update will be added.

Sincerely;
Don Sherrill
