Water services restored to customers on Ka'apuni Road in Kapa'a
Partial one -lane road closure remains in place
KAPA'A - The Department of Water (DOW) has restored water service to all affected
customers located on a portion of Ka'apuni Road in Kapa'a; between Kawaihau Road and
approximately a half -mile south of Kepano Street on Ka'apuni Road and includes customers
located on Alapaki Road, as of approximately 1:45 p.m. The contractor has completed the
necessary work for the new service connection on Ka'apuni Road and customers may now
resume normal water use.
The partial one -lane road closure on Ka'apuni Road, between Kawaihau Road to Olohena
Road will remain in place for approximately 2 hours as the contractor finalizes repairs.
When the 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 the water is clear.
DOW thanks customers for their patience and cooperation during the scheduled and
emergency service shutdown.
