The torrential rains and storm brought on by the “Kona low” earlier this week resulted in at least nine sewer discharges across Oahu, with water advisories that are expected to remain in effect for several more days.

More than 322,000 gallons of wastewater are estimated to have discharged at sites from Halawa to Aina Haina, mostly on Monday and Tuesday, due to heavy rains, according to the Hawaii Department of Health Clean Water Branch.

The department advises the public to stay out of waters at multiple locations, including Keehi Lagoon, Kapalama Canal, Maunalua Bay, and Wailupe, Heeia and Manoa streams.

Brown water advisories also remain in effect for waters surrounding every major island, including Kauai, Oahu, Maui, and Hawaii.

It will take some time to clear up, according to officials, and the public should definitely stay out, not swim, and exercise caution in these waters, including areas like Waikiki, which experienced a lot of runoff.

“Generally, we like to see at least three days of solid sunshine,” said Myron Honda, coordinator of the Clean Water Branch.

He said teams will head out Monday to assess the status of the sites, but will not be sampling water since entire isles are under brown water advisories..

Areas where the public should stay out of waters include:

>> Waters of Keehi Lagoon due to a sewer discharge on Enger Street at Joint Base Pearl Harbor-Hickam. An estimated 6,000 gallons entered a storm drain leading to Keehi Lagoon due to heavy rains. The discharge has been stopped.

>> Waters from Moanalua Stream to Keehi Lagoon due to a wastewater discharge on Jarrett White Road near Tripler Army Medical Center. A total of 140,000 gallons, including wastewater mixed with rainwater, was discharged. Of that total about 133,000 entered a storm drain leading to the bay and Keehi Lagoon, while 7,000 was recovered. The discharge has been stopped.

“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,” officials said.

If the water is brown, the public should stay out, officials said.
