Honolulu Drinking Water Overview

Population: ~350,000 | Source: Volcanic aquifer groundwater

Honolulu's drinking water comes from deep volcanic aquifers that naturally filter rainwater through layers of basalt. The 2021 Red Hill fuel storage facility crisis contaminated the Navy's water system and raised serious concerns about the broader aquifer. The Honolulu Board of Water Supply has increased monitoring and testing in response to PFAS and fuel contamination threats.
