Description
Numerous deep Test Holes drilled by National Grid this past Friday to detect a major gas leak were left open/unfilled. Water has seeped into these holes and will expand with ice as cold water hits, damaging the newly replaced road/asphalt. Please have National Grid patch these holes. Thank you.

Cleo, Thank you for letting us know. As you know Maurice is a newly paved street and National Grid will need to make repairs that are acceptable to the DPW which would be curb to curb including the sniffer holes. Please let me know if you have any questions
Thanks

Update: it will be two weeks on Friday and they still haven't repaired the holes they made.
How much time could this possibly take using a gigantic caulk gun? A few minutes???

Cleo, In the spring NG will be paving it curb to curb. Because it's a new street. These things take time and also I know this has been a mild winter so far but we don't allow them to do a sizable paving job until the spring. If you have any questions please feel free to contact me
Thanks
