Draining of pipes that lead to Red Hill tanks nearly complete

TL;DR - The commander in charge of defueling Red Hill says he expects draining of the pipelines leading to underground tanks to be completed Thursday.

That will allow the next phase of work to begin.

“I just got the latest update and I think we are going to go into tomorrow probably in the morning or the early afternoon,” said Rear Admiral John Wade in a one-on-one interview with Hawaii News Now.

“We are almost there,” he added.
