Residents of Lahaina will be officially allowed to return to their homes for the first time since deadly wildfires swept across the island town in August.
The first zone was opened for re-entry on Monday, clearing residents and business owners who apply for vehicle passes to drive back into town. The Maui Emergency Management Agency will provide up to four passes for each residence, two for the owner and two for the resident, according to a news release.
Those who return will be provided personal protective equipment, as well as "water, shade, washing stations, portable toilets, medical and mental health care, Maui Bus transportation from local hotel shelters and language assistance."

A proposed ruling filed from the U.S. Food and Drug Administration could mean bans on some chemical hair-smoothing and straightening products that have been linked to cancer.
The FDA has proposed a rule banning formaldehyde and other formaldehyde-releasing chemicals from being used in hair-smoothing and straightening products sold in the U.S.
The use of such chemicals has been linked to long-term health concerns, including an increased risk of cancer, according to the FDA. They can also cause short-term health risks, including sensitization reactions and breathing problems, the agency says.
Before an FDA proposal can become an official rule, the agency takes comments from the public and then may "decide to end the rulemaking process, to issue a new proposed rule, or to issue a final rule," the agency's site says.
