How much of the burned area is left for authorities to search?

About 25% of the area has been searched for human remains now.

There are about 20 search dogs combing through the rubble of buildings still.

They're also in the process of IDing those remains and have been asking families who are searching for loved ones to contribute DNA samples to help in that process.

As that search goes on, you know, the burned area in Lahaina is closed off even for people who live there.

Some communities there are still lacking power and drinkable water, so many residents have been eager to do day trips to the rest of Maui, you know, to get supplies and connectivity.
