Five breaks in the U.S. Navy’s water system have been fixed as of Wednesday afternoon, according to Joint Base Pearl Harbor-Hickam Commander Capt. Mark Sohaney.
The U.S. Navy is estimating repairs to its water system will be completed by early next week, Joint Base Pearl Harbor-Hickam Commander Capt. Mark Sohaney said during a Tuesday press conference.
Issues began last week with a first water main break Friday in the Pearl Harbor area. At the same time, a second break occurred near the Navy Exchange due to a car crash. About 93,000 water system users remain on a boil water advisory.
Water main breaks impacted over 93,000 Oahu residents Friday, including on Joint Base Harbor-Hickam, Pearl City Peninsula, and a Salt Lake intersection.
