Radio Script for Maui TV News on KAOI Radio - June 17, 2010

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

NOT ONLY IS MAUI COUNTY THE FIRST COMMUNITY IN THE NATION CONSIDERING LAWS TO REGULATE HOW AND EVEN IF REEF FISH CAN BE COLLECTED, BUT THERE ARE TWO BILLS ADVANCING. THE MEASURE PROPOSED BY MIKE MOLINA - REQUIRES MORE HUMANE TREATMENT OF CAPTURED ANIMALS, AND THE WAYNE NISHIKI PROPOSAL WOULD REQUIRE TOUGHER PERMITTING FOR COLLECTORS. AND FISH COLLECTORS ARE SOLIDLY AGAINST THE IDEA, CALLING IT REDUNDANT AND UNCONSTITUTIONAL. THE COUNCIL WILL CONSIDER THE PROPOSALS AGAIN LATER THIS MONTH.

AND ONE OF THE ORIGINAL NAVIGATORS OF THE SAILING CANOE HOKULE'A HAS PASSED. LEON A.P. STERLING WAS KAPENA ON A NUMBER OF VOYAGES ACROSS THE PACIFIC - AND WAS AMONG THE CREW WHEN THE VESSEL HULIED DURING THE FATEFUL TRIP THAT COST THE LIFE OF SURFING LEGEND EDDIE AIKAU. STERLING WILL BE HONORED IN A CEREMONY TOMORROW AT BALLARD MORTUARY ON MAUI. HIS ASHES WILL SPREAD FROM HOKULE'A OFF WAIKIKI IN AUGUST.

ISLAND WEATHER TONIGHT, PARTLY CLOUDY WITH SCATTERED RAIN SHOWERS AND LOWS IN THE UPPER 60S. TOMORROW, MOSTLY SUNNY WITH ISOLATED SHOWERS HIGHS IN THE UPPER 80S.
