Brown not a good color

Hawaii Tribune-Herald

Someone on the Hawaiian Canoe Racing Association board of directors has the rhyming ability of Dr. Seuss.

On Thursday, the organization’s website, www.hcrapaddler.com, had an advisory about the brown water from runoff produced by Tropical Storm Darby.

The 65th annual HCRA state championships will be held at 8:15 a.m. Saturday at Oahu’s Keehi Lagoon, where the state Department of Health has not lifted a brown water advisory.

The Environmental Protection Agency will be posting signs at Keehi Lagoon advising of possible water quality issues.

Rio is not the only location with unsanitary water concerns.
