For the Big Island’s water haulers, the drought has been demanding as they have been delivering water daily since November. There is no water access point in Hamakua, so the driver must fill up in Pahoa and drive to Hamakua, making a four to five hour delivery time. Honolulu Star-Advertiser (Hilo, Hawaii), Feb 18, 2025
