Orangeburg pressurized water pipe

My Dad owned an underground construction company here for 30 years and said almost all the services they ran back then for water was this pipe and used brass compression fittings, but since new homes have changed, we can't find any fittings. Which seems strange because there's thousands upon thousands of homes in the Phoenix area that have this pipe installed. The leak is under a 24' wide slab of driveway and I have no interest in repairing so I found the pipe before it runs under that concrete and just want to cap it off. Hopefully this picture helps.
