More than 20 million gallons of water went pouring down Sunset Boulevard and onto the UCLA campus this week. At least half a dozen buildings there were damaged, including the newly-renovated Pauley Pavilion. Hundreds of cars were flooded and are now undriveable. The culprit? A 93-year old pipe that meanders a few feet under the road. And the age-old question is, who pays? Joe Matthews is California Columnist for Zocalo Public Square, and Emily Alpert Reyes covers City Hall for the LA Times. They spoke to KCRW's Steve Chiotakis.
