The federal Occupational Safety and Health Administration has cited the Kauai Beach Resort in Lihue to a total of 14 safety and health violations. Out of the 14 violations, nine of them were considered to be serious, and involved failure to safely and properly store and label propane tanks, electrical wiring deficiencies and unsafe electrical work practices. Galem Lamke, the director of the Occupational Safety and Health Administration’s Honolulu Area office, noted that the majority of the violations were related to the resort’s maintenance department. The Kauai Beach Resort now has 15 business days to comply or contest the findings. The resort responded by stating, “We immediately addressed the items OSHA brought to our attention and will continue to diligently monitor all of our safety practices at Kauai Beach Resort.”
