A break in a 20-inch Hackensack Water Co. main Saturday morning sent a virtual cascade down Terhune Avenue and South Main Street and lowered water pressure in neighboring Wallington.
Joseph M. Natoli, Lodi business administrator, said the break occurred sometime before 1 a.m., but that water pressure in his borough was not affected.
Wallington, however, experienced low water pressure all day, said Bob Siery, borough superintendent of water and public works.
Martha Green, Hackensack Water Co. spokeswoman, said a break occurred on Terhune Avenue, near where her company’s water line connects with the Passaic Valley Water Commission system.
The connection serves Wallington, which buys its water wholesale from Hackensack Water, and resells it to about 2,400 homes and 500 apartment buildings and businesses.
