A rusted pipe burst Monday afternoon in the William S. James Senate office building in Annapolis, flooding some rooms on two floors and prompting the Department of General Services to shutter the building.
Thirty-five of the state's 47 senators have offices in the building, and staff members were moving equipment out of offices on the third and fourth floors Monday afternoon. The pipe burst on the west side of the fourth floor, where many Republican members have their offices.
Sam Cook, a General Services administrator, said the building would reopen Tuesday morning. Three Senate offices took the brunt of the damage and will be closed for a longer period of time, he said. He could not offer an estimate of damage.
