Water service shutdown scheduled for portion of Anahola Road

Kaua‘i County Department of Water and contractor Cushnie Construction Co. scheduled a water service shutdown for the middle of next week on a portion of Anahola Road in Anahola.

The shutdown is slated for 9 a.m. to 3 p.m. Feb. 18, weather permitting.

Affected area will be from 4373 and 4374 Anahola Road and extend to Anahola Beach Park. Branching roads affected will be Kamane, Maia and Pili Kai roads.

The planned shutdown is necessary so crews can perform water system improvements.

A water buffalo mobile water source — located at Anahola Village Park — will be provided for essential water needs during the shutdown. Customers will need to provide their own water storage containers.

Residents located in the designated service area are advised to prepare for the shutdown by taking the following steps:

• Store water to meet your needs until service can be safely restored.
• Notify neighbors, family and friends about the shutdown.
• Make sure that faulty water heaters do not empty during the shutdown.
• Monitor water service announcements online.
