WalMart closes five store for "plumbing" problem
Having done a lot of retail design I can see how this might happen - possible the same design team did the plans / specs for different stores and made the same errors (retail stores are VERY cookie-cutter and all based on "prototype" sets right down to the finishes in a lot of cases). It does seem odd that the store would close for that long for it, but it could be getting forced by the local health dept too - I'm sure there's a lot more to this story.
I wonder who will be sued for the losses. I guarantee wallymart will be going after someones ass for it (either designer of record or installer). I certainly wouldn't want to be getting sued for six months of lost revenue for a walmart store. Gonna be one hell of an E&O claim if it ends up being the design team's problem (I guarantee they'll get sued even if they did nothing wrong - one reason I don't miss stamping stuff...)
