Due to this afternoon’s islandwide power outage, the Department of Water Supply is requesting all customers on Maui to conserve water until tomorrow, March 2, 2012. 

Until full electrical power service is restored by Maui Electric Company, the Department is unable to pump water to maintain desirable water levels in the storage tanks.  Customers are asked to use water only as needed for health and safety purposes in order to extend the supply available in the storage tanks until the water can be restored to safe levels. 

Customers are requested to call the 24-hour service line (270-7633) only if a water problem occurs.
