County pump repairs done, wastewater cleanup continues in South Maui
Good news for South Maui residents: the water conservation call tied to a sewage pump breakdown is over, though cleanup from the resulting spill is still underway.
- A mechanical failure at Kihei's wastewater pump station caused a sewage spill at Kalama Park.
- The pump station itself has now been fixed, ending the need for people to conserve water.
- The park's north end, including the tennis and basketball courts, stays closed for cleaning.
Outlook: The affected courts are expected to reopen Monday afternoon once cleaning wraps up.
