‘Ualapu‘e Shaft in East Moloka‘i Tested Positive for E. Coli bacteria; Water Source Remains Safe to Drink

“It is important for residents to note that this detection was in the shaft itself and not in the water source,” according to the Department. “The water in the ʻUalapuʻe system (on Molokaʻi) is safe to drink, because it has been disinfected, and no E. coli bacteria have been found in the distribution system.”
