AGP Executive Report

Last update: 10 hours ago

Hurricane Lala Recovery: Lala has moved past the Big Island, but recovery is underway with widespread damage, road closures, and lingering hazards as officials warn many injuries happen during cleanup. Schools statewide are closed Monday, and power outages still leave tens of thousands without electricity. Storm Watch: Honolulu and other counties kept tropical storm warnings and urged residents to avoid roads and the ocean due to strong winds, heavy rain, and high surf. Wastewater & Water Safety: Honolulu’s Sand Island Wastewater Treatment Plant is dealing with an ongoing sewage spill; crews are containing it, the cause is under investigation, and the state DOH was notified. Wildlife Protection Policy: DLNR’s proposed rules would tighten cat management on state lands, including limits on feeding feral cats, alongside broader protections for indigenous wildlife. Invasive Species Enforcement: On Hawaiʻi Island, advocates say the CRB movement rule is not being enforced enough and are pushing the state Department of Agriculture and Biosecurity to step up. Clean Energy Momentum: Hawaiian Electric reports nearly 3,500 new rooftop solar systems added in the first half of 2026, plus 55 MW of battery storage. Community & Culture: The Hawaiian Council expanded by acquiring Sea Life Park for Native Hawaiian stewardship, and the Huliau Food & Film Festival returns Aug. 29 with farm-to-table food and youth films. Local Science Spotlight: A 10th-grade student’s coconut-husk project is gaining recognition for work that could help break down microplastics and sunscreen compounds.
