A water service shutdown is scheduled for portions of the Wailua Houselots to allow the Department of Water crews to install a pressure release valve.
The shutdown, scheduled for March 24 from 9:30 a.m. to 3 p.m., weather permitting, includes areas of Haleilio Road (from Sleeping Giant Trailhead to Kaulana Road), Kaulana Road, and a portion of Kihei Road (from Kaulana Road to the cul-de-sac).
A water buffalo providing potable (drinking) water will be available at Wailua Houselots Park 4988 Nonou Road. Customers must bring their own water containers.
Additional affected areas also include one customer on Nonou Road and Opaekaʻa Falls Lookout restrooms on Kuamoʻo Road.
During the shutdown, customers located in the affected areas are advised to prepare by taking the following steps:
- Store enough water to meet your needs until water service is restored.
- Notify family, friends, tenants, and neighbors.
- Ensure water heaters do not empty, especially if they are faulty.
