Broken Pipe Floods Reagan Terminal
The Washington Post breaking news blog is reporting that a broken pipe sent water spewing into part of a terminal at Reagan National Airport late Saturday afternoon, creating a major disruption.
Airport spokeswoman Tara Hamilton told the paper that the broken pipe flooded the lower level of Terminal C, which is primarily used by US Airways.
The Washington Post reported that the flooding shut down the baggage claim area in Terminal C, while electricity was shut off to the US Airways pier at the same location. Hamilton went on to tell the Post that US Airways operations at National, both departures and arrivals, were halted for the rest of the day. Additionally, it was not immediately clear whether any effects would be felt Sunday.
