The reason there’s a screen around burned areas in Lahaina? It’s the law.

They are supposed to do as much as they can to prevent drift.
A friend just came back from there and said many are restricted from access because of extremely high levels of asbestos. The homes were built during an era when asbestos was a popular element in building materials and is the primary reason there’s so much.
He also said, all the work he saw, everyone was wearing full respirators and they were being checked for proper fit.
The service dogs that are being used are expected to become ill from their exposure.
I also work with people who do animal evacuation and recovery. Most were turned away simply because there’s no work. There were very few animals that survived.
Also, FEMA is involved and they are beyond anal with their approach to these tasks and ensuring their favored contractors make plenty.
Beyond that, there was nothing nefarious to report.
That would be my guess as well
Having done my share of general contracting in my younger days, I’m fully familiar with silt fencing. And yes, when we did refurbs on older properties (talk about challenging work!) we had to seal off the areas that contained asbestos and hire specialists to work there - but that was INDOORS.
However, the purpose of silt fencing is to prevent runoff of silt and sand into local drainage systems, as in waterborne runoff. Putting up a silt fence outdoors doesn’t do any good for airborne asbestos, and if they wanted to prevent water runoff, then the standard 2 foot (max) height of a silt fence would work fine.
...so, why, again is this fence being built?
A few thinks come to mind, Spoiled meat, biologicals, run-off, in place forensic identification inflatable labs... privacy as charred cadavers of all ages are removed. It’s not a crime scene, but maybe it should be. What local lab could handle that sizable workload? I imagine it’s a privacy issue and the desire to elimate outsiders and thrillseekers.from recording the gruesome and macabre.
Aftermaths are without a doubt terribly blunt visually and foul.
The left wants to do a quick clean up then lockdown any discussion about cause. They learned after 9-11 to control the narrative. They can’t allow the land to become a memorial. The internet media needs to be blocked out until everyone is fed the correct narrative and propaganda of the left.
Sure, 2,000 people just burned to death but we have to worry because there might be asbestos - which is non-flammable and was used in WWII ships to prevent them from burning. Uh-huh, got it, thanks MSM for the update.
What is going to keep that fence from blowing around, in the next ??? mph wind?
Maybe it is a ‘mask’ for Maui.
To catch the particles.
