1:30 p.m. DOW update —Island wide conservation notice lifted, water conservation
request continues for K61oa, Lawa`i, Omao and Kapa`a
KOLOA— The Department of Water (DOW) has lifted the water conservation notice for most of its
customers as of approximately 1 p.m. this afternoon. However, upon further assessment of water
systems and power outages affecting multiple well sites, the water conservation notice will remain
in place for customers located in K61oa, Lawa'i, Omao and Kapa'a, until further notice. All other
customers residing outside of these areas, may return to normal water use.
DOW customers located in K61oa, Lawa'i, Omao and Kapa'a are asked to continue water
conservation efforts by limiting water use to essential uses only; such as cooking, drinking and
sanitation purposes, in an effort to maintain water services where available until electrical power,
system repairs and well site functions can be restored to normal.
An update will be provided as soon as new information becomes available. To monitor water
