resources, though, for us to do a prescribed burn and the personnel that we would need and the equipment that we would need to support that is – it’s – it costs a lot of money, so, it’s not something and, it’s not something we’ve seriously considered – to be honest because of the potential threat that that fire jumps to areas we’re trying to protect. NR: I was just curious. KS: It’s also, and I don’t mean to I sorry to be that guy – but that’s not my primary responsibility. We do have a Protection Forrester and so that would be kind of his, his realm. I’m just wildlife stuff. NR: Cause wouldn’t you guys kind of work hand in hand in order to protect one another? KS: Oh, I would, we would absolutely work with him. We work for the same agency. It’s just that would be – questions about that would go towards him because that’s – does that make sense, like, that’s his realm? AA: Kanalu, maybe if you have, his email and Natalie’s email. Maybe you can share it to Natalie or just send to Barbara and Barbara can send it to Natalie. KS: Yeah, for sure, hasn’t he been \[unclear\] to you guys before – Don Yokoyama? AA: No, he, I don’t think he came in. KS: Oh, OK. I thought he did but… I can definitely share his email for sure. AA: Thanks. Any other questions or comments from the Commission? CO: This is Cortney, District – 8. AA: Yeah, go ahead Cortney. CO: Kanalu, while we have you, I was just wondering if there were any updates on the Feral Ungulate Task Force by any chance? KS: Oh, sure, we met… AA: Hold on, Cortney, I going to bring Alan Nagawa to the next month Cortney for that update. CO: OK. th AA: Because it’s off of the agenda too, so… Kanalu if you can be available on the 15 then you can kind of like share at that time about that. Sorry Cortney. CO: No worries, thank you. KS: August. OK. I will just say that we did meet, recently so we’ll talk about what we talked about next month, then. 10
