Brown Water Advisory on the North shore (Maliko to Waihee) and in West Maui (Honolua to Honokowai), Maui

First Detected: 10/14/2021
Sign Removed: 10/18/2021
Closed: 10/14/2021
Cause: Heavy rain

The Brown Water Advisory issued for the entire island of Maui has been canceled; however, a Brown Water Advisory has been issued on the North shore (Maliko to Waihee) and in West Maui (Honolua to Honokowai) on Maui.

Heavy rain has resulted in storm water runoff entering into coastal waters. The public is advised to stay out of flood waters and storm water runoff due to possible overflowing cesspools, sewer, manholes, pesticides, animal fecal matter, dead animals, pathogens, chemicals, and associated flood debris. Not all coastal areas may be impacted by runoff, however, if the water is brown stay out. Continue to practice good personal hygiene and follow-up with your primary care physician if you have any health concerns.
