On
Saturday, July 4 at 9:30 a.m. the Town of Provincetown experienced
a sewer pipe break which resulted in the loss of vacuum pressure in
the downtown area sewer lines. Read the Town
Manager's statement.
As of 12:00 noon Wednesday, July 8th, the Provincetown sewer system is up and running 100%. The sewer system is experiencing some residual problems which continue to be identified since the final repair work was completed on Wednesday. During the weekend residents called in complaints of sewer noises and odor complaints which, upon investigation, were either private property issues or non-issues unable to be furthe r identified by workers who responded. There was one buffer tank overflow in the 400 block of Commercial Street. After pumping and the replacement of a controller and valve head no additional problems were located. The beaches continue to be open
for all water related recreational activities. Water quality tests
were repeated on Thursday, July 9, 2009 on both the east and west
end came back negative. Thank you for your continued patience! July 4th Property Owner Damage Report Form Town
