<br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> TESTIMONY TO THE HAWAII COUNTY COUNCIL COMMITTEE ON FINANCE <br /> 43rd Session September 19, 2006. <br /> <br /> FROM: Danny Miller, PO Box 686, Pahala, HI 96777 <br /> <br /> <br /> SAVE PUNALWU From JM Cousteau <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> The above picture is an actual photo the Grand Caymen Ritz Carlton <br /> home to Cousteau's Ambassador of the Environment Program that <br /> introduces young people to the "natural wonders and rich cultural <br /> traditions of the Cayman Islands." Is this his vision for Punalu'u?? <br /> <br /> Lets work together to save Punalu' u as a living classroom, from the <br /> mountains to the sea. Punalu ' u is one of Hawaii's greatest natural <br /> treasures; home to important Hawaiian sacred sites and burials; a nesting <br /> place for the sacred honu ea; critical habitat for countless endangered <br /> plants and animals and a priceless resource for local families, fisherman <br /> and cultural practioners. The Proposed development would destroy <br /> the natural beauty of Ka' u forever! <br /> <br /> Punalu ' u has been a LIVING CLASSROOM for centuries and if protected, <br /> can continue to be a "Eco-Campus" for students and educators from <br /> around the world. With public input and community involvement we can <br /> create a VISION that comes from people of KA' U who have protected its <br /> resources for nearly two thousand years. We welcome your involvement, <br /> ideas and participation to help save this invaluable natural resource. <br /> <br /> Thank you, Danny Miller Pahala, HI )14A <br /> <br /> o <br /> 6~f •6 <br /> Comm.
