place here. Additionally, the island of Hawaii or the location in the Pacific is very special because <br /> it allows us to work with telescope arrays located both in Asia and North America. Connecting <br /> those together gives us a special set of results allowing us to localize events. It also allows us to see <br /> the sky at times when other telescopes cannot, and these are bursting events that occur actually just <br /> for millisecond duration and propagate across the universe. So, if you blink you miss it. <br /> I want to point out this is a passive activity we're not generating radio waves. The radio waves are <br /> coming to us, we're just receiving them. We in fact do absolutely everything we can to limit the <br /> amount of radio emission that gets produced by the electronics that we put there. We want to have a <br /> very small footprint. This is a temporary installation for this purpose as — <br /> MERCADO: Thirty seconds remaining. <br /> BOWER: — only up to 10 years. We're certainly very interested in working with the <br /> local community and the neighbors to be good neighbors in this area. We revised our application on <br /> the basis of some concerns that were previously introduced. I think more broadly it's worth <br /> considering this project in terms of seeing it as a diversification of the astronomy footprint here in <br /> Hawaii not only located on mountaintops. So, mahalo for your consideration. Thank you. <br /> MERCADO: Thank you. <br /> LIN: Thank you so much for your testimony. Next, I have Noa Caiserman. <br /> [Testifier from audience came up to the testifier table began speaking facing the audience without <br /> the microphone] Before I even speak on[indecipherable]. Can everybody just please close your <br /> eyes for a moment and[indecipherable] including all you guys. This is for everyone <br /> [indecipherable]. <br /> LIN: Good morning. If you could please raise your right hand. Do you swear or <br /> affirm to tell the truth on this matter now before the Windward Planning Commission? <br /> CAISERMAN: Yes, of course. <br /> LIN: Please press the microphone button and speak directly and clearly into the <br /> microphone. Begin your testimony by stating your name and the town you reside in and please <br /> summarize your testimony within three minutes. <br /> CAISERMAN: Okay, my name is Noa Caiserman. I live in Wood Valley, 22 years up, where <br /> you denied this installation and now, I live about a quarter of a mile from where this is going to be <br /> installed and that last speech was really affected me. This is to the Hawaii Planning Commission or <br /> what else did you me to say? I am a massage therapist of 23 years in applied kinesiologist. This is <br /> to the Hawaii Planning Commission and aloha. <br /> This letter is pertaining to the application of the ASII, ASAII installation of all you spoke about the <br /> 80 feet containers, 24 solar panels and something like 50-foot antenna. [Big sigh] I'm nervous and <br /> happy that all of you are speaking of neighbor papers as well. That's what I'm going to read off of. <br /> 3 <br /> EXHIBIT B <br />
