Aviation Safety: The NTSB kicked off a two-day hearing in Washington into last November’s UPS MD-11 crash in Louisville, where an engine separated during takeoff and killed 15 people, with investigators pressing UPS, Boeing, the FAA and others on maintenance reporting and why a flaw wasn’t addressed sooner. Local Infrastructure: Hawaii’s EV push got a boost as HDOT commissioned a new NEVI fast-charging site at Maui Kapalua Airport with four 150 kW chargers. Water & Housing: Maui County signed an MOU with Maui Land & Pineapple to acquire West Maui water infrastructure, aiming to expand public stewardship and support housing and resiliency. Legal & Costs: Honolulu is set to pay up to $350,000 to a special deputy corporation counsel to help defend the city in ongoing Skyline/Hitachi litigation. Community & Policy: Kaua‘i County moved to increase funding for homelessness, mental health and invasive species in its FY2027 budget, while Hawaii nonprofits can apply for affordable-housing grants from the Nareit Hawaii Community Giving Initiative (deadline June 19).
