A gas leak near Fond du lac’s Mercury Marine has been temporarily repaired. Division Chief of Fire Prevention Troy Haase says Alliant Energy and the contractor were on the scene on the East Frontage Road most of the day Friday trying to locate the leak and then placing a patch on the damaged gas main. Haase says it’s his understanding the pipe is at least 30 years old. “They already patched it good enough to get by for right now, but they’re going to evaluate it and see if they’re going to put in a new pipe or if they’re going to go with fixing this one,” Haase told WFDL news. The Frontage Road was down to one lane for most of Friday as crews worked to repair the damaged gas main.
