A series of breaks in the Grand Canyon's only water pipeline prompted park officials to take unprecedented action.

The 12.5 mile -long Transcanyon Waterline supplies potable water for facilities on the South Rim and inner canyon.

Park officials say the damage occurred down in the depths of the canyon in a narrow area known as “the box".

Other fatalities included a 33-year-old woman who was swept away last week in a flash flood while on a hiking trip, and another North Carolina man who fell to his death July 31 at the South Rim . ___ Yamat reported from Las Vegas . Ty Oneil , Matt York And Rio Yamat , The Associated Press .
