Radio Script for Maui TV News on KAOI Radio - February 11, 2010

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

CALLING IT A VICTORY OF THE BIG GUYS OVER THE LITTLE NUISANCES, TODAY THE HAWAII DEPARTMENT OF AGRICULTURE SAYS THEIR ATTEMPTS TO ERADICATE THE NEST OF LITTLE FIRE ANTS ON MAUI HAVE PROVEN SUCCESSFUL. THE ITTY BITTY CRITTERS WITH THE PAINFUL BITE WERE DISCOVERED LAST OCTOBER ON A WAIHE'E FARM AND AN AGGRESSIVE SERIES OF TREATMENTS OF THE AREA WITH AN EXPERIMENTAL ANT BAIT SEEMS TO HAVE WORKED. THOROUGH SEARCHES FOR THE LITTLE FIRE ANTS THIS WEEK FOUND NONE ALIVE. THE SO-CALLED LFA'S HAVE BECOME A PAIN - LITERALLY - ACROSS THE BIG ISLAND.

A FIRE ON MOLOKA'I LAST NIGHT SEVERELY DAMAGED THE HISTORIC SAINT SOPHIA CHURCH IN KAUNAKAKAI. THE BLAZE WAS REPORTED AROUND 10-30 LAST NIGHT AND CREWS SAY THE 73 YEAR-OLD BUILDING WAS GUTTED. THE CHURCH WAS PLANNING A THREE-MILLION DOLLAR RENOVATION AND A NAME CHANGE TO BLESSED DAMIEN CHURCH.

ISLAND WEATHER, A HIGH SURF ADVISORY IS IN EFFECT UNTIL TONIGHT. OTHERWISE, PARTLY CLOUDY WITH SCATTERED SHOWERS AND LOWS AROUND 60. TOMORROW, MOSTLY SUNNY WITH HIGHS IN THE LOWER 80S.
