Issues
Sewage-To-Kailua Plan
Honolulu ran into a waste issue in 2011 as its normal sewage treatment plant, Sand Island Wastewater Treatment Plant, became overcapacity. Kailua Mayor Peter Carlisle said that truckloads of waste would be dispatched to an Ewa treatment plant until an environmental assessment can be performed on Kailua's treatment plant.
Rep. Cynthia Thielen led this effort to have the city perform an environmental assessment before delivering daily truckloads of waste to the Kailua Water Treatment Plant.[1]
