Pre-tax deductions from payroll are qualified deductions applied by employers to employee income before it is subject to taxes. Qualified pre-tax deductions will not appear on Form W-2 or the employerâs quarterly payroll tax report (Form 941). Pre-tax deductions lower employeesâ taxable income and can reduce income tax, state, federal, and FICA taxes.
Mauna Loa's most recent eruption occurred from March 24 to April 15, 1984. No recent eruptions of the volcano have caused fatalities, but eruptions in 1926 and 1950 destroyed villages, and the city of Hilo is partly built on lava flows from the late 19th century.
The 1950 eruption of Mauna Loa began on June 1 and continued until June 23. Fissures opened up along the Southwest Rift Zone for a distance of over 12 miles. First, floods of liquid lava poured out of the vents and a cloud of fume rose two miles into the air.That activity lasted about four hours.ypically, these eruptions began in the summit caldera, Moku'aweoweo, with a curtain of fire (which is a 1 to 2 km line of lava fountains). Eruptions may consist solely of summit activity or they progress down-flank via rift zone dike propagation (in the subsurface) to feed flank vents.
