Lanai Water Company Announces Drought Watch;

Asks Customers to Voluntarily Conserve Water

Lanai Water Company has announced a drought watch for all customers on Lanai effective immediately.  We are experiencing lower levels of rainfall causing drier conditions across the island. We are requesting all customers to conserve water.

The Hawaii Drought Monitor has indicated that the majority of the island is in moderate drought conditions with portions of the island including the Manele area to be in a severe drought.

All water customers are being requested to voluntarily reduce water consumption by only using water when necessary and implementing water conservation measures.
