We believe that the safety of everyone concerned is extremely important, <br /> and agree that a temporary closure of hunting areas is warranted at this time. <br /> Please be aware that in any event, the County of Hawaii does not have <br /> jurisdiction over the closure area, which is on State land. I encourage you to contact <br /> your State Representative and State Senator to voice your concerns. <br /> n Thank you very much for taking the time to write to me. <br /> p/ L Alo <br /> (I� Pairy Kim <br /> VVV b D MAYOR <br /> Pio' <br /> M nvw I <br /> County of Hawaii is an Equal Opportunity Provider and Employer <br />
