Nahiku residents and businesses served by the County of Maui Department of Water Supply are being asked to voluntarily conserve water.

A recent lack of rainfall has reduced water flowing to the EMI irrigation tunnel that provides water to storage tanks at Nahiku.

The department will deliver water tankers on Thursday, March 10, near the pavilion in lower Nahiku.

Reduced water consumption by all consumers will allow limited water supplies to be extended while water sources replenish. Conservation measures include refraining from washing cars and washing down sidewalks and driveways, and irrigating lawns. Other ideas for saving water are available at www.mauicounty.gov/water
