The first and the most important tunnel in the network, providing over 90% of the fresh water to the city, that among the citizens of Stalburg is commonly known as the "Bergmann Water Tunnel", the tunnel connects the Hammer Valley river to the [[Stalburg Central Water Plant]], moving water to the main reservoir. The tunnel hosts two major facilities lenghtwise, a [[Tunnel4|hydroelectric power plant]] built and operated in the past by [[Hammer Valley Hydro]] and a [[Tunnel2|Pine Fell Water Plant]] operated by [[Stalburg Water]], whose underground section controls the water flow rate in the tunnel, another minor water flow control facility is located between the major two. Throughout the tunnel at least 4 [[Main-Six|Water Flow Monitors]] are installed that radio communicate the state of the flow to the main control board at the [[Watertreatment|Pitheath Water Treatment Plant]] office. | The first and the most important tunnel in the network, providing over 90% of the fresh water to the city, that among the citizens of Stalburg is commonly known as the "Bergmann Water Tunnel", the tunnel connects the Hammer Valley river to the [[Stalburg Central Water Plant]], moving water to the main reservoir.

The main tunnel has 6 additional smaller tunnels that bring in water from other sources, whose floodgates are controlled from within a control room. The maintenance tunnels around the water tunnels are connected to the basements of [[Tenement B|Tenement]] and [[Deekula Basement|Deekula]] buldings, including a Tunnel B2 that connects the control room with the water treatment facility. | The main tunnel has 6 additional smaller tunnels that bring in water from other sources, whose floodgates are controlled from within a control room.

These tunnels were initially maintained by Robin for an unknown period of time, before he was replaced by [[Mike Palmer]] somewhen prior to 2026. The tunnels were left unsupervised after Mike had contracted the [[Fungal Disease]] and was unable physically to perform the job anymore. | ||
A local company, [[Nordmark Water Services]], has illegaly hooked up a water pump to the tunnels to redistribute potable water around surface tenements and charge for the service. | A local company, [[Nordmark Water Services]], has illegaly hooked up a water pump to the tunnels to redistribute potable water around surface tenements and charge for the service. | ||

Possibly one of the most mysterious sections of the Bergmann Water Tunnels, Tunnel B2 is a connecting hallway that serves to connect the maintenance areas surrounding Control Gate 1 to sections further along in the tunnels. The tunnel is kept under tight security, making entry very difficult. This is likely done to not only prevent people from entering the tunnel, but also to keep the tunnel's main occupant, [[Mörkö]], from escaping. Workers have reported various strange noises coming from the tunnel, and those who are curious enough to have a look inside often regret doing so soon after. [[Mörkö|Mörkö's]] presence in the tunnel is usually considered an "urban legend" by those who have not ventured into the tunnel. | Possibly one of the most mysterious sections of the Bergmann Water Tunnels, Tunnel B2 is a connecting hallway that serves to connect the maintenance areas surrounding Control Gate 1 to sections further along in the tunnels.
