The Keamuku Maneuver Area (KMA) Complex Fire is 100 percent contained, with approximately 1500-1800 total acres burned between the two fires.

Yesterday, three U.S. Army military helicopters from the 25th Infantry Division on Oʻahu (2x UH-60 Blackhawks and 1x CH-47 Chinook) continued to conduct water bucket drops using approximately 38,000 gallons of water.

On Tuesday, 97 bucket drops were performed, using nearly 91,000 gallons of water. The total number of water drops for the entire incident is 222, totaling over 200,000 gallons of water.

The PTA Fire and Emergency Services team will continue to monitor the area.
