with that understanding I think the condition is fine. I just didn’t want us to get in a situation <br />where we were saying to do something that was not going to pan out in the end. <br />LIM: That specific language, the “commercially reasonable” language, was <br />negotiated with the Mauna Lani Resort Association. <br />IWASHITA: Mr. Chair? <br />WATANABE: Okay, thank you. <br />YUEN: That’s fine. And so the proposed conditions are fine with me. <br />WATANABE: Okay. Mr. Woodward? <br />WOODWARD: Yeah, it would seem to me that there would be, you know, as I say the <br />technology for this exists. And if you’re going to have underground drip emitters you either <br />have settlement tanks and/or filtration units before it goes into the pipes. It may be a <br />combination of the two, but I think that certainly is technically a reasonable thing to do. <br />WATANABE: Okay. Yes, Mr. Iwashita. <br />IWASHITA: Thank you, Mr. Chair. My concern is that our applicant does not control <br />the waste treatment facility and, I guess, the condition as written basically, I guess, in my mind <br />can insulate the developer and applicant from proceeding with using the R-2 water if the <br />Waikoloa -.

So, you <br />know, I understand what Commissioner Woodward is saying, is that, you know, I guess it’s a <br />very commonly used technology elsewhere. But in this case because we have a separation <br />legally between the party treating the water and the party that’s going to use it, you know, it’s <br />going to be, well, I can’t do it because they haven’t filtered it and he says, well, we don’t have an <br />obligation to filter it and we’re not going to incur the expense. So how do we address that? <br />WATANABE: Yeah. I’m not familiar with all of the rules. I did read Bobby Jean <br />Leithead’s testimony with regard to, you know, R-2 has to be subterranean rather than straight. <br />But -. <br />IWASHITA: No, no, I -. <br />WATANABE: I understand what you’re getting at. But what I’m trying to drive at is <br />whomever is providing the effluent I think there’s a, I don’t think they can have it any worse <br />than R-2. And if they can’t have it any worse than R-2 and it’s commercially reasonable that R- <br />2, to use as irrigation, then I think it will work out. But maybe, Mr. Yuen, you could advise us <br />EXHIBIT C <br />18 <br /> <br />
