Water services restored to customers on Helena Lane
and Kihei Road in Kapa'a
KAPA'A— The Department of Water (DOW) has restored water services to customers located on
Helena Lane in Kapa'a at approximately 4:45 p.m., today. DOW crews have completed repairs to
the mainline break on Helena Lane and customers may now resume normal water use.
Additionally, DOW crews were able to maintain water services to customers on Kihei Road during
the emergency repairs to the system.
Customers are advised that when a water main is turned back on, air and or existing sediment
may be mixed into the water causing it to appear white or milky at the tap. This is normal and if
it occurs, customers may flush water out from an outside hose bib until water is clear.
DOW thanks Kapa'a customers for reporting the leaks and for their cooperation during the
repairs.
To report a water service issue during business hours, between 7:45 a.m. to 4:30 p.m., contact
the Department of Water at 245-5444 or after-hours, call Police Dispatch at 241-1711.
