Repairs Expected To Last Days After Sinkhole Opens Up On Upper East Side
Still, Councilman Ben Kallos, who represents the Upper East Side, said he is concerned.
“We need the Department of Environmental Protection, which manages our water supply, Con Ed working together to find any leaks underground, making sure that we’re not having any compromised spaces, and make sure that this doesn’t happen again,” Kallos said.
Con Edison said gas and electric were not impacted in the area.
Kallos told CBS2 the DEP believes a 12-inch water main — or a 6-inch sewer main — may be the cause.
