Kahoolawe Rebirth Begins

Amid chants and symbolic planting of native foliage,
Hawaiians and supporters on Maui yesterday celebrate
the start of reforesting Kahoolawe, the former target island
for Navy test bombs. With $400 million from Congress,
contractors will begin clearing ordnance from Kahoolawe
early next year, with reforestation to occur in
areas deemed safe by the Navy.
