It's the utility's valve in a small buried box between the street and the house, and it isolates the service line. Homeowners generally aren't meant to operate it, since it needs a long key and a damaged stop becomes an expensive dig. If the interior main valve won't hold, that's a call to make.

It's enough to freeze the short unheated runs first: the pipe feeding an outdoor tap, a line crossing a cold crawlspace, anything in an uninsulated garage. The main house plumbing usually rides it out. The trouble is that the small frozen section splits without warning and only leaks once things warm up.

In most municipalities here the property owner is responsible for the lateral all the way to the main, including the portion under the street. That surprises people. It's worth knowing before a backup happens, because it changes who arranges the repair.
