Radio Script for Maui TV News on KAOI Radio - February 2, 2011

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

ABOUT A THOUSAND CUSTOMERS OF MAUI ELECTRIC LOST POWER SHORTLY BEFORE 11 THIS MORNING. OUTAGES OF UP TO 17 MINUTES WERE REPORTED IN LAHAINA, WAILUKU, PA'IA AND HANA. MECO IS INVESTIGATING THE CAUSE OF THE INCIDENT WHICH WAS A GENERATOR SHUTTING DOWN UNEXPECTEDLY AT THE MA'ALAEA POWER PLANT.

AND TODAY GOVERNOR ABERCROMBIE'S OFFICE ANNOUNCED HE WILL RELEASE 500,000 DOLLARS TO RESTART CONSTRUCTION OF THE MOLOKA'I COMMUNITY HEALTH CENTER. THE PROJECT ABRUPTLY STOPPED LAST FRIDAY BECAUSE THEY DIDN'T GET THE ONE MILLION DOLLARS PROMISED TO THE PROJECT BY THE 2009 HAWAI'I LEGISLATURE. THE FEDERALLY-QUALIFIED HEALTH CENTER PLANS TO BUILD AN OCEANSIDE HEALTH AND WELLNESS CENTER AT THE FORMER PAU HANA INN LOCATION.

ISLAND WEATHER - NOW THAT MOST OF MAUI HAS DRIED OUT, FORECASTERS SAY ANOTHER SIGNIFICANT STORM SYSTEM COULD REACH US BY THE WEEKEND. IN THE MEANTIME, LOOK FOR PARTLY CLOUDY AND SCATTERED SHOWERS TONIGHT - LOWS IN THE 60S. SUNNY TOMORROW WITH HIGHS IN THE MID 80S.
