#2 Irrigation Main Leak- Split






On May 18th, right after the rescheduled Member/ Member event, an irrigation line split on the back left of #2 green.  The irrigation pumps that were installed in 2006 can push up to 800 gallons of water per minute at 150 psi through the irrigation system.  By the time the system was shut down, the pumps were at 50 psi and couldn't handle the leak.  The first two pics are of the water flow.  The third pic is of a split through both the "T" and 6" pipe.  The forth pic is the entire 8 foot length of the split.  The last pic is the hole that was excavated and broken pipe removed.  The fix took roughly 6 hours.
