Hello Linda, I was hoping that breaks would be logged in a consistent format somewhere at BWS--the tweets, for example, seem to be follow a template. Spreadsheet or database download would be ideal, but even a text or Word file would satisfy my request. I would prefer to have data for the whole service area, if possible. Last 5 years is OK, but I don't want to analyze less time than that or I feel that the difference in water consumption during the pandemic would bias my analysis. Sincerely yours Trey Gordner

Aloha Mr. Gordner - Congratulations on your election to the Ewa NB! The information in the format you are looking for can be found on our website under our monthly minutes for our board meetings. However, we will pull the spreadsheets together for you for the past 5 years. Going back further may require more time and we may have to assess a research charge - just let us know. Also, here is a link to our Water Master Plan: https://www.boardofwatersupply.com/wa.... You may find it of interest as it talks about planning for our agency including infrastructure. Please note that the pandemic did not affect overall water use on the island. It stayed steady. If you wish more information on that time period regarding water use, you can reach me at (808) 292-4672. I will work to have the information sent by next week. Mahalo! Kathleen Pahinui Kathleen M.
