Advertiser Staff
The Moloka'i landfill was reopened today at 12:30 p.m., but the scrap metal section of the facility will remain closed until further notice.Maui County spokeswoman Mahina Martin said an Army explosive ordnance disposal unit assessed the landfill today, but its findings were not immediately available.
Closure of the scrap metal section means disposing of vehicles at the landfill will not be permitted.
Refuse pickup service for Moloka'i residents will resume tomorrow and Friday, Martin said.
