FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE
Water Restriction Notice Downgraded to Water Conservation Notice for Customers from Āhualoa to Pōhākea
AFFECTED AREAS: KAHANA DRIVE EAST OF KALEHUA ROAD, KALEHUA ROAD, PA‘AUILO MAUKA ROAD BETWEEN KALŌPĀ MAUKA ROAD AND PŌHĀKEA ROAD; AND ALL SIDE ROADS AND ADJACENT AREAS; HĀMĀKUA, HAWAI‘I
Effective immediately and until further notice, the Department of Water Supply (DWS) has downgraded the Water Restriction Notice to a Water Conservation Notice for affected DWS customers. A Water Conservation Notice requests affected customers reduce water use by at least 10 percent.
A Water Conservation Notice is needed to let the public water system stabilize and to maintain water service to all system customers.
DWS asks customers to conserve drinking water, use it wisely, and to not waste it. Call (808) 9618050 during normal business hours or email dws@hawaiidws.org. For after-hours emergencies, please call (808) 961-8790.
DWS thanks affected customers for their understanding and kokua.
