The fire occurred in the vicinity of the Auwahi Wind Farm located in leeward Haleakala.
We are glad all are okay at Auwahi Wind. They have been a great partner in Kahikinui's Firewise Community efforts. Recently, they contributed $10,000 to the Hawaiian homestead community for a new community entrance and fuels reduction.
