AT & T has for the area. So, in essence this facility would be providing permanent service for the area whereas the COW is really a temporary, was design as a temporary facility during the emergency. AGUINALDO: Right, during that time like emergency like lava flow. Now, the 2 sites I indicated with Bishop Estates, Kamehameha Schools. Have you folks looked into that site as well? TOMLINSON: So, we do a very thorough examination of the area and I can't specifically say that because I'm not exactly familiar with the parcel you're speaking of with Kamehameha Schools. But so, we do a thorough examination based off of demand, and our radio frequency (RF) requirements for the network. In this particular case as we have in our RF kind of justification package which are attachments 3 in the application. It shows kind of a, it gives a more in-depth explanation of that process and shows how coverages would be affected. So, we looked at some various properties in the area and Sanford's Service Center was amenable to developing on this site. It is already being used as a quarry site and it is essentially almost about a quarter mile away to the nearest household. So, there was that consideration was taken into account during the process. AGUINALDO: Okay. TOMLINSON: Go ahead, I'm sorry. AGUINALDO: Okay, are you aware from the statement from State of Hawaii Department of land and Natural Resources (DLNR) a document dated July 9h, 2020. The State listed Hawaiian Goose or Nene has a potential to occur in the vicinity of the proposed project site. I do frequently you know when we used to get aggregate up there. They do hang around the area. TOMLINSON: Sure. AGUINALDO: That's something you very very cannot take it lightly Andrew. TOMLINSON: Oh, absolutely. AGUINALDO: It is against State Law to harm or harass these species and if any of these species are present during construction activity then all activity within a 100-feet, thirty (30) meters should cease, and the bird should not be approached. Now, the question is to that is how are you guys going to mitigate that? Are you guys going to hire somebody to make sure? Now if they fly there who's to be accountable to say hey, we got to move away. The Nene goose around the area we got to go away. So, that is kind of like my biggest concern is that. How are you guys going to mitigate that? TOMLINSON: So, as part of our National Environmental Policy Act(NEPA) compliance process or environmental compliance process we do consult with DLNR as you referenced as well as the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service (USFWS) to determine if there are critical habitats, endangered species in the area as well as historic preservation resources.
