Water Restriction Notice Issued for Water 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, a Water Restriction Notice has been issued for all
Department of Water Supply (DWS) customers in the affected areas. A Water Restriction Notice
requires affected customers reduce water use by at least 25 percent.
A water restriction is necessary due to a water main break in a remote area. Crews have located the
break and estimate the repairs will take six to eight hours to complete. DWS is hauling water to refill
the water tanks, and customers are asked to restrict their use to allow the tanks to be refilled. DWS
has stationed a potable water tanker at the intersection of Kalōpā Mauka Road and Keāhua Road for
the public’s use. Water is also available at the public spigot located at the bottom of Pōhākea Road in
Pa‘auilo.
DWS asks customers to conserve drinking water, use it wisely, and to not waste it. Call (808) 961-
8050 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.
This is your Hawaiʻi County Department of Water Supply.
