Hula Grill Ka'anapali has reached an agreement with three local companies on Maui to recycle used oil from the restaurant's kitchen.

The restaurant will donate about 400 pounds of oil a week to a local boating company, compost company, and goat dairy farm, said Hula Grill General Manager Orrin Cross.

The boating company will reuse the oil to operate small fishing vessels, the compost company will reuse the oil to help break down branches, leaves and food waste, and the dairy farm will reuse the oil to make soaps.

"We've always been concerned about the environment," Cross said . "As a restaurant, we serve hundreds of meals per day which requires hundreds of pounds of oil per week; it's our vision to see the oil recycled, not wasted."
