We asked Washington Gas spokesman Jim Monroe for an update on the work to repair leaking gas lines in the Marumsco Hills neighborhood.
You’ll remember the utility earlier this year detected leaks in 10 major gas leaks after a home exploded. Firefighters called to the home just made it to safety before a fireball ripped through the house.
From OWL Volunteer Fire Department:
10:10 a.m. Occoquan-Woodbridge-Lorton Volunteer Firefighters responded to the report of a condominium fire at 12841 Cara Drive Woodbridge. OWL VFD arrived on scene within minutes and saw smoke coming from the eaves of a three story condo unit. Crews quickly contained a small fire to the attic and extinguished within few minutes of arrival. There were no injuries.
Volunteers completed 75% of the roof repairs last week at Habitat for Humanity’s Central Park Drive Rehab so plans are set for this week to finish up the roof, to remove the cracked front sidewalk and to pour a new one.
