North Shore Oahu residents urged to conserve water

Advertiser Staff

The Honolulu Board of Water Supply is asking residents from Turtle Bay to Waialua to conserve water through Thursday while crews repair a broken pump.

The pump at Waiale'e Wells II stopped working earlier today. It is one of two wells that provides drinking water to residents from Sunset Beach to Turtle Bay.

To meet water demand in the area, the agency is rerouting water from a Waialua source, thus expanding the area affected.
