The Texas Division of Emergency Management announced this week that the agency has deployed additional disaster recovery personnel to Hawaii to assist communities following the devastating wildfire that occurred in Maui County in August.
“TDEM is providing additional disaster recovery subject matter experts to aid Hawaiian communities as they work through the process of recovering from the destructive wildfire that occurred this summer,” said Texas Emergency Management Chief Nim Kidd. “TDEM continues to support Hawaii, just as our state partners assist Texas in our times of need.”
At the direction of Gov. Greg Abbott, TDEM has deployed the following emergency management resources to Hawaii’s State Emergency Operations Center under the Emergency Management Assistance Compact.
