fuse— but there's a powder keg at the end and I have been known to yell at people in <br /> the park. So, if I'm yelling at you, I want you to ask yourself—what did I do? I put caution <br /> tape from the barricade to a tree, back to the barricade—out to another tree so it's a <br /> little more visible. People are still walking over the lava coming down right at the nest <br /> and that's where I'm —the Irish goes off—where do you think you're going? <br /> And you have Jordan's entire presentation on there, what he was able to send me was <br /> an abbreviated version which also offers a solution which has some precedent on the <br /> Island of Kauai and he offers the cat manual protocol which would allow for reporting <br /> feral colonies, truly feral colonies that you see when you're out hunting. We have signs <br /> that say no littering, we have signs that say no smoking, we have signs that say alcohol <br /> free park and you know what the number one thing I pick up in the park is? Cigareete <br /> butts and beer bottles. It's— people paying attention to signs and adjusting their <br /> behavior to what the law is, is a challenge. So, this is a challenge, and it will take the <br /> community working together to meet it. Thank you. <br /> LT: Thank you very much, ma'am,just closing this section up. We've got 15 minutes left and <br /> a couple of things to run through real fast, yeah. <br /> TWC: Taysen Wong Chong from District—2, K. T. I really appreciate you coming. I know you <br /> felt like you wasn't an asset to be here today but reason why I invited you, I feel that <br /> experience-wise in the park you was the best fit of the park presentation so if I had <br /> anybody to come and talk to about the whole concerns of the park—you were the <br /> person to have on board. I appreciate Jordan giving [unclear] cause I also spoke with <br /> Jordan, giving the presentation in hand, ah, that's a big help but I just wanted to thank <br /> you not just for coming today but also for what you do for the park as well, I've watched <br /> that. Thank you. <br /> KTC: Thank you, Taysen. <br /> RD: Duerr, District— 1, K. T. —you're a model for community outreach and conservation. <br /> Mahalo. This is something that we could— how you work with 1,000 volunteers to help <br /> conservation and preservation and public access enjoyment— but the other issue is the <br /> fishpond is a viable resource. A lot of people get bait and a lot of people fish there and a <br /> lot of times it's the first access for young, keiki. We'd love to work with you on how that <br /> model looks in the future. Is it tag and release. Are there sometimes that you can <br /> harvest, how to get the access so that the flow is better and, I think this is something <br /> that DAR and GMAC can help you with. <br /> KTC: DAR has be very helpful. At the moment we're in the midst of fish survey in seeing <br /> what's in the pond. There's the native Hawaiian seahorse in the pond. There's flounder, <br /> little bitty flounder that big. As well as everything that you could think of. We're missing <br /> some traditional, native Hawaiian fish because we're missing native Hawaiian limu <br /> which does not grow in mud, it grows on rock, so repairing, restoring the pond is a <br /> multi-year effort, getting rid of the mud, down to rocks so that native limu can be re- <br /> 22 <br />
