Water service shutdown scheduled for customers located on Kahiliholo
Road in Kilauea on June 26
KILAUEA —The Department of Water (DOW) announces an 8-hour water service shutdown for customers
located along Kahiliholo Road in Kilauea on Tuesday, June 26, 2018 from 9 a.m. to 5 p.m., weather
permitting. The water service shutdown is necessary in order to install an emergency bypass line on
Kahiliholo Road and conduct waterline improvements for the Kilauea water system.
Affected customers are advised to take the following steps:
• Store enough water to meet your needs during the shutdown.
• Notify family, friends and neighbors that may be affected by the shutdown.
• Those with faulty water heaters should ensure that water heaters do not empty during the
shutdown.
• After the water main is turned back on, air and or existing sediment may be mixed into the water
causing it to appear white or discolored. This is normal and if it occurs, customers may flush water
from an outside hose bib until water is clear.
