A crash on the H-1 east near the Waimalu off-ramp is slowing traffic for Oahu commuters, with emergency crews still working the scene.

• Police, fire, and paramedics are on scene and the cause is still being looked into.
• Drivers heading east should expect backups near the Waimalu off-ramp.
• A separate item: a $2 million award is tied to the news of the day.
• The University of Hawaii is starting a project to spot threats to the islands' food supply before they turn into a crisis.

Outlook: Traffic should clear once crews finish at the scene, and the UH food-supply work is just getting underway.
