E-Coli Bacteria, Boil Water Advisory update

The December 5th and 6th the Kona low storm impacted many residents. On December 16th, E. Coli bacteria was detected in some of our water. Some Upcountry residents are on a boil water advisory. 
 
At the request for clearer communication from the affected residents, the County of Maui has updated their website www.mauicounty.gov on storm communications. 
 
Interested residents are asked to check the website for FAQs and updates on boil water advisories. Residents who have storm damage are asked to report it to our Maui Emergency Management Agency for possible FEMA assistance. 
 
I appreciate the County of Maui taking action to assist the concerns of the community and creating this communication.
