there is currently no provisions in this plan. This is a major problem. I’ll cut into the chase, this seems like a, a quick one, this seems like a lot of this plan was uphold from places far and beyond Hawaii and it’s smelling a lot like agenda 2030 from the UN, which hunters brought the issue of Agenda 2019 which was the one that proceeded 2030. Hunters brought this to our attention in the early 2000s. Update on the harbor, Senator Lorraine Inouye is having a harbor meeting on January 26, and essentially, it’s an update but she’s making this a priority. She’s making fishing for sustainable food a priority of hers. The washdown area is flooded – that was being taken care of last week. Bathrooms are being put back in order and the bumpers are being installed by Isemoto. Putting this on top of the dredging which came in about 4.3 million. The total spending on this project will be close to 6 million. DAR, I’m a part of DAR East Hawaii Fishers working group, a big priority is the Molowai. The Molowai is out of the estuaries in Hawaii that essentially has been drained and filled and what they’re talking now is this also pulls together with hunters. They’re talking mauka and makai. This is one ecosystem and so, they’re really looking to focus on that. Beth Dykstra who works in the County in R & D. She’s heading up the East Hawaii Watershed Group and asked me to join, which I agreed to do. But essentially to try and keep track of what are they doing and how is it gonna affect our mauka lands – how it’s gonna affect access for hunters. Hamakua pigs’ people who have moved here recently are really concerned. Their yards are getting ripped up, but that’s the same story everywhere. That’s all I have Chair. LT: OK. Thank you. We can move on to District – 2, sir? TWC: Taysen Wong Chong, District – 2, Makahanaloa Association will meet on January 26 – 3:00 pm at the Kulaimano Center to share updates. Liliuokalani situation – cats still a problem. I had a few conversations with elder citizens that have concerns about the pond when it’s low tide. They shared with me 50-60 years ago that the pond on the right side nearest Coconut Island when it used to be low tide it would be 10+ feet deep. Now it’s inches deep, so they were asking me, what is the possibility of dredging the pond. That’s out of my jurisdiction but that would be a good idea. It’s not gonna throw 100 fish in a ten-gallon pond, right? You know, that’s my concern. Pig posting on Instagram viewed - I agree, it’s pilau, showed 3 dead pigs jaws was ripped off again – this was from a DLNR individual as well, they said it’s pilau – my comment is – it’s pilau but isn’t that what you guys want to do? Eradicate the pigs. I’ve been working on Peepeekeo for years now, but what I’ve been noticing in the past weeks - I have a video of it – I see some banded and some non-banded nenes appearing in the pasture. So that’s a good thing to see, that’s why I want it in the report. Basically, that’s it for my update. 2
