There is a backup in place. In 2011, BCWA paid for a complete engineering study to prove that in the event of a a cross bay failure, the route through East Providence via the existing Rt 195 pipeline, together with the existing connections already in place between EP and BCWA, could "gravity feed" BCWA for most all of its needs.
That study was presented to the community as a proof that a workable backup plan was already in place should the cross bay pipeline fail.
The issue as I understand it is over a "second source" from the Scituate reservoir.
