The DWS is requesting a 25% water restriction for North Kona customers due to the Hualālai Deepwell unexpectedly going offline on March 30.

During this time, customers are being asked to reduce usage to preserve adequate water supplies to meet the community’s drinking, cooking, and hygiene needs. Reduction actions include refraining from irrigation, washing cars, and other unnecessary water uses during the restriction.

DWS will continue monitoring the water system and make necessary adjustments. Updates will be posted on the Department’s website and social media platforms.

business hours, or email dws@hawaiidws.org.
