Welcome
When it comes down to it, the Department of Environmental Services (ENV) takes care of everything we don’t want anymore — the wastewater from our drains, and the trash and green wastes from our homes and lawns.
Every day, ENV collects and treats about 96.31 million gallons of wastewater, with a design capacity of 153.28 MGD, along with gathering our trash from the curb and disposing of it six days a week.
But while ENV provides these services, the department’s larger mission is to work in partnership with the residents of the City & County of Honolulu to make sure our island has a clean, safe environment.
ENV works with businesses, individuals, and sister agencies to foster a sense of joint responsibility for our ‘aina to protect our children.
