Immediate water conservation notice issued for Wainiha residents
HAENA— The Department of Water (DOW) has issued an immediate water conservation notice for all
Wainiha customers until further notice, in order to avoid a full water outage in the system. Customers
may currently be experiencing low water pressure or no water service due to possible weather impacts to
the Wainiha system. DOW crews are unable to access the area at this time due to the Kuhi'o Highway
closures.
Customers are asked to limit water use to essential uses only; such as drinking, cooking and sanitation
purposes. Conservation measures include turning off irrigation systems, automatic ice makers, etc.
An update will be provided as soon as new information becomes available. To monitor updates online,
