Radio Script for Maui TV News on KAOI Radio - August 29, 2008

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

SERIOUS WATER ISSUES WOUND UP IN COURT TODAY AS THE COUNTY OF MAUI FILED SUIT AGAINST MOLOKAI PROPERTIES TO ASSURE THAT THE COMPANY FULFILLS ITS OBLIGATION TO OPERATE AND MAINTAIN WATER AND WASTEWATER SYSTEMS IN WEST MOLOKA'I. FORMER STATE ATTORNEY GENERAL MARGERY BRONSTER, WHO JUST OFFICIALLY JOINED THE CAUSE TWO WEEKS AGO, FILED SUIT IN THE SECOND CIRCUIT COURT TODAY. THE LAWSUIT SEEKS IMMEDIATE ACTION REQUIRING THE WATER TO STAY ON, AND SEEKS UNSPECIFIED RELIEF AND DAMAGES IF MOLOKAI PROPERTIES DECIDES NOT TO HONOR ITS COMMITMENT. BRONSTER POINTED OUT THAT - IN THE COUNTY'S FAVOR - OVER THE YEARS, MOLOKAI PROPERTIES HAS SIGNED 31 CONSECUTIVE CONTRACTS SAYING THEY WOULD NEVER SHUT OFF THE WATER THE WAY THEY ARE TRYING TO NOW. IF THEY SHUT DOWN THIS SUNDAY AS THEY PLANNED, SOME 40 PERCENT OF THE ISLAND WOULD GO DRY.

ISLAND WEATHER, TONIGHT, MOSTLY CLEAR AND BREEZY WITH A LOW IN THE UPPER 60S. MOSTLY SUNNY AND BREEZY TOMORROW WITH HIGHS IN THE UPPER 80S.
