WASHINGTON, Aug 3, 2024 – Charter Communications and Hawaiian Telcom were included in the $4 billion settlement over the deadly fires a year ago in Maui, according to a press release issued Friday by Gov. Josh Green.

The state's release said the settlement covered Charter, Hawaiian Telcom and five other defendants but did not disclose their individual financial liability. The settlement remained subject to final court approval.
