Hawaii Game Management Advisory Commission Meeting <br />Minutes – March 19, 2019 <br />AA: Abraham – if you guys injecting this water back into the aquifer – you guys <br />saying the 1% chance – well, up in – this is more towards the ocean – I’m <br />gonna bring it more towards the mountain but we’re protecting our water up in <br />the mountain and we’re fencing off all this watershed and maybe you cannot <br />answer this question but we’re protecting our water all over the state basically <br />but yet we’re letting other entities inject water – even though it’s a 1% chance <br />– but after all these gallons and gallons of water eventually you’re gonna be <br />polluting the water. <br /> <br />KO: What I said is it’s brackish water so it’s non-potable water so I think you were <br />talking about on a potable water basis? <br /> <br />?: I don’t think any of the water is really potable is they still got to filter it even the <br />ones that they get from our mountain aquifers they still got to go through a <br />filtration system. Do you guys have a filtration system before you guys inject it <br />back into the aquifer? <br /> <br />KO: Some of it is – some of it is not because it’s non-contact – it’s the same <br />composition that we’re bringing it out – that’s why we’re putting it right back in. <br /> <br />?: So what do you mean by non-contact? <br /> <br />KO: It means it doesn’t come into contact with the rest of the process. <br /> <br />?: What is the process? <br /> <br />KO: Ah, power production. <br /> <br />?: So basically you’re going right through the whole plant, going through the <br />boiler it coming all the way back down into the... <br /> <br />KO: No. It just goes through the condenser and, which you have a tube on one <br />side and... <br /> <br />KO: Yes, the steam within the condenser. <br /> <br />?: Back to my previous question. Where would all this planting be done? <br /> <br />KO: Up and down the Hamakua Coast and there’s like another plantation down in <br />Keaau. <br /> <br />?: Maybe we can have another meeting with their forester to come in and give <br />us a better plan about it because I think my next question would be more <br />towards them about like how do you guys control the lands – is it a private <br />land that you guys growing all this on and can hunters access all that land – is <br />it public land or is it private, you know, to help control the game. <br />11 <br /> <br /> <br />
