DeKalb County Department of Watershed Management crews completed repairs to a 30” broken water main at 3661 Clairmont Road. 

“We are excited to announce that the water main break has been repaired,” said DeKalb County CEO Lorraine Cochran-Johnson. “When you start a job of this magnitude, whatever you find, you must deal with it in real time.”

As service is restored, customers in the affected area may experience brown, milky or discolored water and are encouraged to run the faucets inside and outside their homes/businesses to clear the internal plumbing.
