BL: Brian, District—4, a few years ago the State was trying to designate them as pests so <br /> that way they had no legal standing and the group shoot it down, so, we've gone <br /> through this before. Words mean a lot especially the lawyers and the...like you said if we <br /> can get these down—designated as game animals and [unclear] like they're supposed to <br /> be... <br /> AA: It's pretty much what this is designated... <br /> RD: Duerr, District— 1. It might be advisable for us to have an attorney from a hunting group <br /> or a national wildlife group or in the State of Hawaii to kind of like put us into the <br /> ballpark of what this means. <br /> BL: A legal definition. <br /> RD: A legal definition—and looking at it from our perspective and not the State's <br /> perspective, because essentially what Abraham's bringing to the table is that games are <br /> resources—to be—and you would think that resource would have a management plan <br /> and that there was an impact on those game for problem areas that would lead to a <br /> mitigation. The resources are valuable, yes, there's a problem, yes we have a <br /> management plan, yes, yes, we're gonna consider what we need to do. Put the game in <br /> another area, put money into another area for enhancement, you see what I'm saying <br /> this essentially is how the environmentalists work—once they have a resource that has <br /> a jurisdiction and a mandate—when you're gonna affect it you need to have a <br /> mitigation package, you need to pay. <br /> LT: OK. I think we should add this on the agenda for next month's meeting, yeah, and then <br /> have it in that designation, discussion, yeah.... <br /> IK: There's a lot going on—a lot of detail, yeah. <br /> LT: So, thank you for bringing this up. Moving on. <br /> AA: Chair, there's no District—5 representative at this time, so I'd like to throw it back into <br /> your court about, you know Volcano Transfer Station and move the boulders back to the <br /> front. So maybe the Commission can have a discussion about that and write a letter to <br /> the Mayor, County Council and also Department of Solid Waste. Two weekends ago - <br /> there was an influx of hunters that was actually parking alongside the road...it is not <br /> safe. And this has been a continuing issue [unclear] move them from the front to the <br /> back... <br /> LT: It's not safe. <br /> RD: Abraham, can we have a concise like paragraph of like what's—where's the problem — <br /> what's the impact. So, like maybe [unclear]. <br /> 4 <br />
