Excavation in Waimea

Waimea sits on Kauaʻi's dry West Side at the mouth of Waimea Canyon, large ag parcels, plantation-era homes, and excavation work that runs from town up Kōkeʻe Road.

Working on the ground in Waimea

Arid red dirt, hard caliche layers, and lava rock outcroppings. Dust control and water hauling become real line items on West Side jobs.

What we run here

Ag road grading, ranch driveway construction, rock removal and ripping, septic installs on large parcels, and trenching for ag water lines.

DOH Cesspool Prioritization Tool · Waimea

Planning urgency categories near Waimea

The Hawaiʻi Department of Health groups cesspools into planning urgency categories based on proximity to drinking water, streams, the coastline, and sensitive ecosystems. These categories help homeowners and agencies decide where to convert first. They are not legal deadlines for individual properties.

Priority 1: Plan First

A planning urgency category (not a legal deadline). These systems are generally closest to drinking-water sources, streams, wetlands, or the coastline, so the Hawaiʻi DOH prioritization tool flags them to plan first.

The only enacted statewide cesspool deadline under Act 125 and HRS 342D-72 is January 1, 2050. Priority 1 and Priority 2 are planning urgency categories, not legal deadlines or property-specific determinations. For your parcel's category, consult the Hawaiʻi Cesspool Prioritization Tool or the DOH Wastewater Branch.
