The outage will be from 8 p.m. on Thursday, July 29, to 6 a.m. on Friday, July 30, 2021. There also will be partial road closures on Kohala Mountain Road between mile markers 6 and 10 and on Akoni Pule Highway between mile markers 22 and 25. Motorists are advised to drive with caution in these areas. This temporary outage is necessary to allow Hawaiian Electric personnel to safely perform maintenance and upgrade infrastructure and equipment for system reliability and resilience. The work is being performed overnight to minimize disruptions to customers. Customers are advised to unplug sensitive equipment prior to the out- age and to keep refrigerator and freezer doors closed. Those who depend on medication or life support equipment should make arrangements for a back- up power supply or transportation to a facility outside the affected area.

DWS will set up a temporary spigot on a fire hydrant near the Ka'auhuhu Transfer Station for the community's use during the power outage.
