Mayor Alan Arakawa is urging Maui residents to conserve water while underground aquifers recharge their supply of fresh water.

The appeal is a general water conservation request, said Paul Meyer, deputy director of the county Department of Water Supply.
The last three to four weeks have been particularly dry and surface water sources Upcountry and in Iao and Waihee valleys have been running low, he said.
Recently, the water department shut down its Olinda Water Treatment Facility because of low water flows, Meyer said.
