Hawaii Game Management Advisory Commission Meeting <br />Minutes – January 14, 2020 <br />from the Pepeekeo Shoreline Fishing Assn so word of mouth – anybody who <br />has issues as fishermen we’d really appreciate if they’d come and share them <br />next meeting. And so we’ll move on to Committee Reports – if anybody on the <br />committees has a report. I have a report. <br /> <br />COMMITTEE REPORTS <br /> <br />NP: OK. So from the Legislative Committee – we have three bills we’re trying to <br />introduce and so we’ve been talking to legislators and it’s a lot of work – it’s <br />really had to get someone to sponsor your bills but it looks like Mark <br />Nakashima – he’s going to sponsor our bill to give HCR 22 more power by – <br />he’s gonna move it from a resolution – anyway he’s gonna make it a bill <br />rather than a resolution which establishes the value of our game resources <br />HCR 22 and then Lorraine Inouye – she’s going to sponsor our bill to require <br />that the HCP for Puuwaawaa-Puuanahulu be completed – the over ten year <br />old habitat conservation plan – we’d really like to see it finished. So she’s <br />gonna sponsor that bill and the Kai Kahele is willing to sponsor our bill that <br />will require an investigation of why palila are still declining and to revisit the <br />mandate, um, of sheep eradication. So that’s the update on our legislative – <br />we haven’t gotten numbers to our bills or anything – it’s still about a lot of <br />phone calls and writing back and forth but it looks like it’s going forward and <br />so hopefully we’ll get a lot of support. We’re gonna need a lot of people to <br />testify and hang in there for our bills. <br /> <br />TN: Nani, Teresa in Kona... <br /> <br />NP: Yes. <br /> <br />TN: We also have Andy Levin who will be our lobbyist again representing the <br />County as legislation – so I think it would be wise for you to come in contact <br />with Andy so he can visit the various legislators that are supporting the <br />various bills that we have put forth. <br /> <br />NP: Yup. I’d like to just move over to Oahu and be there every day but... <br /> <br />TN: Well, Andy will be there and that’s why he can be our voice also so... <br /> <br />NP: Thank you. <br /> <br />TN: If you could be in touch with him... <br /> <br />NP: I do remember him. That’s a good idea. Thank you very much. All right so do <br />we have any Commissioners Report by District? <br /> <br />COMMISSIONERS REPORT BY DISTRICT <br /> <br />37 <br /> <br /> <br />
