Radio Script for Maui TV News on KAOI Radio - December 2, 2009

FROM THE VISIONARY RADIO NEWS CENTER, I'M JEFF KING WITH MAUI TV NEWS.

IT WAS QUITE A SIGHT OFF OF KEAWAKAPU BEACH IN SOUTH MAUI THIS MORNING AS TWO FORKLIFTS DROPPED SOME 15-HUNDRED CEMENT FORMS FROM A BARGE INTO THE OCEAN ABOUT A HALF-MILE OFFSHORE. THE PROJECT ADDS TO THE 52 ACRE ARTIFICIAL REEF AND IS ONE OF FIVE SUCH PROJECTS IN HAWAII. THE REEF WILL ATTRACT AND PROTECT YOUNG FISH SPECIES WHO - AS THEY GET OLDER - MOVE TO THE NATURAL REEFS IN THE AREA.

AND ON THIS SUNNY WEDNESDAY, THE POWER WAS SWITCHED ON AT THE CAMERON CENTER AT NOON TODAY. MORE THAN 480 PHOTOVOLTAIC CELLS HAVE BEEN MOUNTED ON THE ROOF AND WILL GENERATE MORE THAN A QUARTER OF THE POWER THE CENTER USES EVERY DAY. THE POWER PURCHASE AGREEMENT MEANS THE SYSTEM COST THE CENTER NOTHING - AND THE SYSTEM WILL ALSO PAY FOR ITSELF IN LESS THAN 10 YEARS - MAKING THEIR MONTHLY UTILITY PAYMENTS EVEN LESS.

ISLAND WEATHER, MOSTLY CLEAR SKIES TONIGHT EXPECT LOWS IN THE LOW 60S. TOMORROW, EXPECT MOSTLY SUNNY SKIES WITH HIGHS IN THE MID 80S.

FROM THE VISIONARY RADIO NEWS CENTER FOR MAUI TV NEWS, I'M JEFF KING.
