Waikiki Sewer Repairs Completed After 7 Years

In 2006, heavy rain created a break in one of the main sewer pipes in Waikiki and caused 48 million gallons of untreated sewage to flow in the Ala Wai Canal.  This lead to a $42.7 million project to install a 5,800 foot long, 72 inch wide sewer line that will carry raw sewage from Waikiki and parts of the McCully and Moilili communities. The Waikiki sewer repair project has finally been completed.  Over the next two decades, the city of Honolulu plans to spend a total of $4.6 billion to upgrade Oahu's entire sewer network and treatment plants.
