COURTESY LUNDY JENN

BWS received reports of a water main break near the entrance the the Waimanalo Gulch Landfill on Farrington Highway at around 5:30 p.m. today.

The Board of Water Supply crews are working tonight to repair a 24-inch water main break near the entrance to Waimanalo Gulch Landfill in the westbound shoulder of Farrington Highway.

This main feeds water to the entire Waianae Coast. Six homes on Farrington and the landfill were without water as of 7:43 p.m. A bypass is being set up to partially restore water to Honokai Hale.

Residents are encouraged to conserve water. Water pressure will be lower than normal and may vary.

BWS crews are arranging for a water wagon to be stationed near the homes without water.
