WATANABE: Or are there alternative locations. And I assume you had probably done some studies on that. CHAN: Right. WATANABE: Typically they do. So maybe you can enlighten us with the, you know, share your studies with us. CHAN: Right. I think you may all have the background report that was provided? WATANABE: Yes. CHAN: There is a map in there that T-Mobile had provided regarding existing coverage within the Keaau area. And, if you can see, the proposed site is right in between the two, the two areas. And that’s why as Mr. Darrow had mentioned it’s kind of helping to continue that coverage. The reason it, you know, towers are located in residential areas is that’s where the people are; and that’s where you would use your phones. Therefore, you know, that’s the reason. You know, we try to locate it as much as possible in commercial/industrial areas; but in this case, and it also provides coverage along Volcano Road which is heavily traveled. WATANABE: Okay. Ms. Bowman, do you have a question? BOWMAN: Well, could we see that other photo of the zoning? The area that Ms. Nomura was talking about, is that like near the purple at the end? DARROW: Correct. BOWMAN: Have you, and that’s about how far away, couple of miles, a mile or two? DARROW: I believe it’s approximately one mile. BOWMAN: Have you looked at any of those areas and -? I mean that’s more, it seems like it’s a little bit more urbanized. CHAN: Right. The previous company to Avalon, WFI, had contacted numerous, you know, people in the area to see, you know, what would be the most viable; and this is the candidate that came up as the most viable. I would assume that they had, they may have gone to that site, although it is getting quite close to the next site that’s right down the street. BOWMAN: And that would be -? CHAN: The Shipman parcel. BOWMAN: Shipman? CHAN: Uh huh. BOWMAN: Okay. I’m looking at your, just so I see, I’m looking at your site coverage. 12 EXHIBIT B
