Effective immediately and until further notice, the Department of Water Supply has issued a Water Conservation Notice for customers in the aforementioned areas. A Water Conservation Notice requests affected customers reduce water usage by at least 10%.
Water conservation is necessary to maintain adequate water storage while DWS performs emergency repairs to a water tank damaged by the May 22 earthquake.
Performing the following steps will help to conserve water:
- Wash only full loads of laundry and dishes
- Check faucets and pipes for leaks
- Do not let water run when washing hands, shaving, or brushing teeth
- Reduce showering times
All affected water customers should limit water use for dust control and irrigation. Find other water-saving tips by clicking on the “Conservation” tab at www.hawaiidws.org.
