Polipoli Without Water Following Kula Waterline Break

The Polipoli area of Kula will be without water today as personnel with the Department of Water Supply repair a broken transmission line.  The affected area includes Polipoli Road between the Pilikino Gulch and the intersection with Middle Road, and Pilikino Place.

Water will be shut off from 10 a.m. and 3 p.m. on Sunday, November 29, 2009.  A portable water tanker will be stationed at the DWS Waiohuli Tank site for customers to fill up their own containers with potable water.

Kula customers beyond the Polipoli area, including Waiohuli, Ulupalakua, and Kanaio are asked to conserve water since the transmission line will be out of service and the Department will not be able to fill storage tanks until the repair job is completed.

Customers are asked to call the service line at 270-7633, only if a water emergency occurs.
