JA: Good to know – public service announcement. <br /> <br />LT: Yeah. <br /> <br />JA: No, it’s not a matter of a free pass for the military vs. the hunters and the question is, <br />it’s not been answered anywhere, and I can’t answer it – is what is the effect of <br />Puuanahulu becoming a critical habitat area? And what does that mean for hunting? Ah, <br />that’s the answer we need and it’s not written anywhere – it’s not any different than the <br />rule change that just came out that was approved for Zone A, and then the other areas <br />that are now have increased bag limits and extended hunting days that message came <br />out yet it’s not been posted yet on DOFAW’s website so it’s just all interesting that the <br />information flow is not getting to the public – the ones who need it. <br /> <br />SW: Deputy Corporation Counsel Sylvia Wan – Mr. Ackerman do you know what agency is <br />supposed to be monitoring this area now that it’s been deemed a critical habitat? Is it <br />changing agencies monitoring or? <br /> <br />JA: I don’t, I’m assuming that would be - fall under DLNR, or, as the board change came <br />under Bureau of Land and Natural Resources I don’t know. <br /> <br />SW: OK. Ah, do you want to seek an opinion from DLNR regarding your question. <br /> <br />JA: Yeah, that would be fantastic – some clarification is what’s needed. <br /> <br />SW: So, you have two options – you can either try to create a PIG so that you along with <br />somebody else can do that work or you can take it upon yourself to do that and <br />whatever your results are either put it on the agenda by getting a representative to <br />come presenting whatever the response is. <br /> <br />JA: I’ll take it upon myself and reach out and figure it out. <br /> <br />SW: OK. Great. So, you can talk to me offline about how to get that on the agenda whenever <br />you get those results. <br /> <br />JA: Thank you. <br /> <br />LT: Right on, thank you for that. ‘Cause understanding how the military increases the size of <br />the base and what they’re doing with the properties next to ‘em, I’m still trying to learn <br />and understand the process of all of that too ‘cause those are all my hunting areas, I <br />hunt all around the base my whole life and watching the road change and the base <br />change and the lava flows – it’s really important to understand the migration of all the <br />animals – thank you for bringing that up. OK, and that concludes our Commissioner <br />Reports by district, and then no discussion on that. OK, we’re gonna move forward to <br />number 5, subsection b. We’re gonna get an update from Jason Sanborn – East Hawaii <br />8 <br /> <br /> <br />
