The County Council will hear from the public ONE LAST TIME on the Draft Maui Water Use Development Plan (“WUDP”) before the first of two votes needed to adopt the plan HCA is proposing some very needed amendments to the WUDP about:

  • 1) Updated data and a clearer solution to Upcountry water meter list; 
  • 2)  Public management of the East Maui ditch system;  
  • 3) True costs of the proposed Ha’iku wells, and who will foot the bill if local wells and springs are dried up:
  • 4)   More details about private water agreements the County Water Department has with A&B and others and how they affect who gets what water?


These amendments are really needed if the Plan is to give clear guidance to our lawmakers over the next 20 years.
the agenda Item is CR 20-128 Please ask the Council to refer the Water Plan back to committee,  so that a few needed amendments can be added before it is adopted.

The entire text of the proposed changes are in this document.
