I am also to understand that the operation of a simple drone can disrupt the "radio-quiet" requirement of <br /> the site. I can tell you as a resident that there are drones flying in Wood Valley on a daily and nightly <br /> basis, which would interfere with the satellite dishes reception of the FRB's. <br /> We also do not know anything about this Chinese University that is behind this project. They would have <br /> little accountability if something went wrong. They hired Land Planning Hawaii LLC to be the intermediary, <br /> a company which seems to be less than 2 years old, further raising questions about the legitimacy of this <br /> development. <br /> When they previously tried to build this closer to our home last year it was denied rather quickly. When <br /> we spoke to the representatives of the Chinese University, they said they understood our concerns and <br /> would not want such a development in their neighborhood. They said they would not want to set up the <br /> dishes without the community blessing. Obviously, they do not care about our concerns and are trying to <br /> set up again in Wood Valley. <br /> This development is practically in the center of the Wood Valley community. The satellites will be in full <br /> view for everyone, especially homes at higher elevations like us. This will undoubtedly be an eyesore and <br /> disrupt the current enjoyment of the natural beauty of Wood Valley, Hawaii. There are no developments <br /> like this in Wood Valley, this would set a dangerous precedent and it is alarming that it is done as a <br /> "Special Permit Application" instead of the more comprehensive agricultural permitting process and DEIS. <br /> I am against this development and will continue to pursue all our options to Protect Wood Valley Hawaii <br /> from Chinese University satellite dishes and telescope developments on Mauna Loa and Mauna Kea. <br /> CC: <br /> Hawai'i Conservation Alliance & Foundation <br /> 1601 East-West Road <br /> Honolulu, HI, 96848-1601 <br /> Phone: (808) 944-7417 <br /> Email: manager_hawaiiconservation.ora <br />
