"I tried to start it and it died," she said. "I wanted to cry because I love my car so much. The floor mats were float ing on 4 inches of water." Eyster said Eugene Water and Electric Board workers arrived at around 10 a.m. and shut off several of the water valves near the broken main at about 10:30 a.m. Additionally, the road was blockad ed from East 19th to 13th avenues along Agate Street, and East 15th Av enue was blockaded up to the Bower man Building. The intersection re opened at around noon, but the section of 15th Avenue to Bowerman remained closed while EWEB excavated the street to investigate the cause of the break. Bob Springer, the administrator on duty for University Facility Services, reported that water was also shut off in several of the science halls, includ ing Willamette, Cascade, Klamath and Huestis, but he added the situation was not dangerous. "It just causes the normal inconven iences," he said. "Fire sprinklers systems are down, so we'll have fire watches." EWEB Water Distribution Supervisor Harold Summers said he thought the break was possibly caused by deteriora tion of the pipeline or sediment, adding that the last two weeks have been unusually dry. He said, however, that the cause would not be known until after the in vestigation was complete. "We don't know the magnitude or nature of the failure," he said. Summers couldn't comment on who would be liable for the damage done to parked cars and University property. As of Sunday evening, water remained unavailable in the Walton and Hamilton complexes.
