Kauai and Maui Getting $400K For Storm Clean-Up

By /

The U.S. Department of Labor on Monday announced it is giving a $400,000 National Emergency Grant to help Maui and Kauai clean up in the wake of the severe storms, flooding and landslides from a March storm system. 

The money will be used to create 20 temporary jobs for eligible dislocated workers to assist in clean-up and recovery efforts.
