Ha’iku Water Quality

Many streams in the Haiku area (from Maliko Gulch to Keanae) are used recreationally as well as for domestic or agricultural purposes, but very little is known about the quality of the water in these streams. HCA, in partnership with Maui County and Surfrider, has started to sample from four popular Haiku streams:

  • Naili’ilihaele stream. This flows through the bamboo forest area.
  • Honopou stream.
  • Kailua. Also called the “dog pond”.
  • Ho’olawa. This has two branches. Ho’olawali’ili’i and Ho’olawanui, that flow through Twin Falls.

We will be gathering samples twice per month from each of these streams. Data will be available here, where you can also download tabular data.

We will be adding additional streams to test, so if you have suggestions of streams in the Haiku area, please let us know! You can email us at: haikucommunitypm@gmail.com.
