Hawaii Game Management Advisory Commission Meeting Minutes – June 25, 2019 IC: I agree. I think there’s a lot of good... NP: It’s hazy and fuzzy and you know you got to dig for the action plan, you know, so that would be – if I could – make a request when you’re working on it that the action plan be first and then all the other stuff after. IC: Well, you should put all that history and stuff first... But there is at some point where you start with the meat and that’s where it would be like here’s your goals, your actions... ....and then how you address ‘em and I tried to review these and, you know, some of them are long term things like removing legislative impediments. Those are not a snap of the finger. I mean we fight with that all the time. Even doing a rules change – some of you’ve been involved with rules changes – they’re not quick and I can’t make them any quicker. NP: Right. IC: I can try as much as I want but I’m also – I’m early grey – I’m not that old actually so I do understand – we’d like to get this draft going and work with everybody to try to keep moving it forward but some of these goals are not quick. IC: And I apologize for those of you involved in it – I know at least two of you were – I’ve read the list – and I’m like it’s – I don’t know where it went actually but we’re gonna try to get out. NP: Do you have a date that they’re giving you to – a goal date of getting a draft plan out. IC: September. JO: Who else is looking at the plan? Who are the principals that are looking at this draft? IC: Well, after the request was made – I had the wild people wanted to look at it first and so right now just Kanalu and I are gonna look at it – cause this is gonna be a county... JO: OK... IC: ....starting at a county level, right? And I can see that’s what makes the most sense cause I don’t really foresee – I actually think they all should \[unclear\] if this goes forward it should be county-based not state-based. 21
