NORTH TERMINAL FLOODED
PORTLAND, Ore. - A large water main ruptured in northwest Portland on Thursday, forcing the closure of a portion of Northwest Hoyt Street.
The water main broke under Northwest Hoyt Street between Northwest 3rd and 4th Avenues, spilling a significant amount of water onto the roadway.
Portland Water Bureau crews quickly shut the main down and closed the immediate area due to the amount of standing water.
Two buildings are without water service - a TriMet Operator Building and a vacant USPS building.
The cause of the rupture has not yet been determined.

STEVE BANTA EXPLAINS CRUTCHES AND COMMENTS ON THE OPERATOR REPORT
Hi Al.....You info is immediate. I have a tear in the medial meniscus and will follow up with an orthopedic visit on Monday morning to discuss treatment options. Your "man" on the spot discussed with me the operators dislike for the elimination of the "operators report". I'm surprised that so many miss it, based on the number that were left behind at the payday stations every other week.
