Broken Water Main Closes Department Of Justice Buildings

A water main broke Tuesday morning in the alley between the Department of Justice office buildings on I and J streets in downtown Sacramento, closing both locations.

The water system at 1300 I St. was disabled and access to the building will be restricted until it is fixed, the state Attorney General’s office reported. A timeline for re-opening is not available, but work is under way.

In the meantime, about 800 employees from both buildings will work remotely and from other DOJ locations.
