Lāwaʻi residents should brace for a day without tap water, as a water service shutdown is slated to affect part of Kaumualiʻi Highway come next Wednesday. Scheduled for September 24, the shutoff is expected to last from 9 a.m. to 5 p.m., giving way only to the whims of the weather, according to the Department of Water.
Specifically, this disruption will hit folks living along Kaumuali‘i Highway, between Kuli Road and Wawae Road. The Department of Water lists the necessity of storing water, reaching out to family and colleagues, and keeping water heaters topped up to avoid mishaps. They've also advised against the use of appliances that need water during this window of waterlessness.
In a bid to furnish affected populations with updates, the department maintains a digital presence at www.kauaiwater.org, where they'll post the latest news on the shutdown. Moreover, for inquiries or further information, concerned citizens can ring up 808-245-5455 or touch base via email at [email protected].
