Three hundred thousand -. <br />BALOG: Yards. Three hundred thousand tons -. <br />MACY: Maybe 400,000. <br />BALOG: They also claim that it’s minor. In their own release – t <br />paperwork – they say that 5,000,000 cubic yards, or 11,000,000 t <br />they keep using this thing, “Oh, it’s just a minor change, there <br />we are doing, we are only taking what we are already doing and w <br />the site,” well, I mean, I run a quarry, I know he runs a quarry <br />you’re not going to do what you are doing today – it’s impossibl <br />if you are going to sell it, as it’s already disclosed in their <br />You don’t make AC rock out of rubbish. And on top of that, it’s <br />definitely different than the gradation used for cover material. <br />quarry that sells and makes many different products to compete w <br />which they said, yes, they want to make a profit and share with <br />a landfill and the County would actually step up and say, “We ha <br />Hawai‘i Concrete, would DeLuz Trucking, would CTS” – Glover does <br />have one on the east side, but they run operations on the west s <br />bid, or anyone else in the general public like to bid for the ex <br />the excess material and sell it to the general public” – that’s <br />difference. <br />On top of that, part of, the next part of what I have to say is <br />think about it till I heard the earlier application, and I’m thi <br />think West Hawai‘i started, on Parker Ranch land; our direct sal <br />but our direct sales actually helped the beneficiaries of Parker <br />goes through problems and has needs, and they distribute it.
