Water conservation request issued for Wainiha, Haena and Hanalei until
further notice
WAINIHA — The Department of Water (DOW) has issued an immediate water conservation notice for all
customers in Wainiha, Haena and Hanalei until further notice, due to an electrical power outage affecting
the well pumps and systems in the area. Customers are asked to limit water use to essential uses only in
order to avoid a full water outage.
Essential water uses includes cooking, bathing and sanitation purposes. Water conservation measures
include refraining from car washing, turning off fixtures that automatically draw water; including outdoor
irrigation systems, and using water wisely both indoors and outdoors.
