Not surprised! Common occurrence on Oahu.
All the city focus is on rail and other services on the back burner.
Way to go Hawaii. You elected another group of losers, and you continue to desecrate the islands.
Kind of like one definition of insanity.
More flavor for the fish in Lake Wilson. I bet those “floaters” will make the fish even more flavorful. 🙂
Caldwell always dumps his sh1t in Lake Wilson.
All the discharge from the Wahiawa Sewage Plant is dumped into Lake Wilson every day… so what else is new?
How could they tell?
“The Clean Water Branch advised the public to avoid lake waters from Olive Avenue to the spillway until staff remove the signs.”>>> And that would be about when? Pesky details.
