TL;DR - A coalition of stakeholders finalized the process on Thursday by which the Navy will flush its water distribution system and attempt to rid it of jet fuel contamination.

The Interagency Drinking Water System Team is made up of the state Department of Health, the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency, the Army, and the Navy.

The team was created last December to align and streamline the process of cleaning up the Navy’s water system in the Pearl Harbor area.
