The street is designed to have vehicles driving on top of it, not have pressure coming up from below.

If we tried to fluoridate now, we'd have to find a totally different strategy to make it work, and we don't know if we could find a way that's cost-effective. We do know it would be very expensive to fluoridate on a well-by-well basis.
Over the next six weeks or so, they'll be inside the pipelines with their electronic equipment and their sounding devices and they'll be testing every foot of this pipeline.
The pressure in the system was well below the rated pressure on a pipe of this type.
