In this 27NOV2023 press conference video, U.S. Marine Corps Colonel Jeremy W. Beaven revealed that the Waterfront Operations Team was undergoing training for such an incident just three days prior, on 17NOV2023. Once the crew was safe, Colonel Beaven stresses that their main concern is the surrounding environment, so much so that they had a hazardous waste containment boom in place within 30-minutes after the incident:

U.S. Navy Rear Admiral Kevin P. Lenox also gave statements that were intentionally designed to stress environmental protection, with a focus on the removal of the fuel from the multi-mission maritime patrol and reconnaissance aircraft.

On 28DEC2023, the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers (USACE)-Honolulu District revealed plans for a temporary campus for displaced students of King Kamehameha-the-Third elementary school. USACE video by Charles Delano:

USAEC was ordered in September, by FEMA (Federal Emergency Management Agency), to design and build a temporary elementary school. The work is actually being done by contractor Pono Aina Management of Waianae, Hawaiʻi. The temporary school is using taxpayer-leased modular buildings, and could be in use for the next five years!

Debris removal includes trees that are considered to be a potential threat, possibly falling onto the public, so they are cut down and removed.

“All the recovered lithium batteries and power walls were handled by EPA utilizing an innovative process. The state, county, and other federal partners were not involved in the de-energizing and decommissioning of the batteries.”-Stacy Greendlinger, U.S. Environmental Protection Agency, December 2023

U.S. Army Corps of Engineers explains the debris removal process, on Maui, Hawaii, 01DEC2023:

At the end of November, the USACE Wi-Fi system for the new temporary school had to be moved to a better location, to improve connectivity.

On 18 November, the first soil samples were collected by the USACE in Kula: “At each location, six inches of soil is scraped off of the top and then the contractor lays out decision units and collects the samples. The samples will be analyzed for elevated levels of metals such as arsenic, canec, lead, and cadmium. If they come back showing elevated levels of contaminates, the area will be scraped and sampled again.”-Jean Barnes, Environmental Protection Specialist

Noto Peninsula (能登半島, Noto-hantō) is the epicenter of a 7.6 magnitude Richter scale (7-Japan Meteorological Agency [JMA] scale) earthquake that struck at 16:10 Japan time. An earthquake warning was issued just before the quake. Evacuations underway for Ishikawa Prefecture (located on the center of the west coast of Honshu). Ishikawa-Wajima (Wajima City) is on fire, the local fire department reports they are overwhelmed.

Buildings are collapsed, with people underneath. Small tsunamis are coming ashore in surrounding west-coast prefectures on Honshu and Hokkaido.

A live TV news reporter, in one city, said mud was pushing up into the streets. At least 49 aftershocks on the Noto Peninsula.

In the affected prefectures, communication services (including fiber optics) are down, bank services down, some rail transport is down, airline services suspended, hospitals reporting many injured people showing up, police in Nanao City report at least two people confirmed dead, Nanao Ohta Thermal (coal fired) Power Station shutdown. A nuclear power facility in the area reports no problems as it was already offline when the earthquake struck.

A second quake warning was issued.
