Water Leakage Causes Covered Damage?

We have an insured that had a leak occur in the line running from her house to the municipal sewer. According to the local Borough, the leak caused the dirt to sink and compact which in turn caused a large hole under the sidewalk and part of the street.

The insured had to have the line dug up and repaired. The sidewalk was saved and the street repaired after the hole was filled in.
