Cause: Surface runoff

The Brown Water Advisory for the West and South Shores of Oahu has been canceled; however, a Brown Water Advisory has been issued at North and East Shores of O‘ahu.

Surface runoff is entering coastal waters in some areas. The public is advised to stay out of runoff waters due to possible contamination by pesticides, animal fecal matter, dead animals, pathogens, chemicals, and associated runoff 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.
