30 boats they have on one side is too much pressure on both wildlife and super dangerous <br /> for the people enjoying the activity. <br /> Another concern is that I see a lot of chalk and paint on the lava rocks, even north of our <br /> district pass the airport, I'm not sure if it's from the ironman people or what, if you are <br /> driving along the highway, headed towards Waikoloa pass the airport, you'll see a bunch <br /> of Graffiti defacing of our Aina. People are painting on the lava, it might even be chalk, <br /> but it may be permanent if you drive that way you'll see a bunch of white marks, squares, <br /> letters, all kinds of stuff on the lava and that's unacceptable for the public and it's an <br /> eyesore, defacing our natural resource. <br /> The feral cats at Old A's( Maka'eo) I've had a bunch of complaints,from some community <br /> members about that. Super large population down there. They're being fed actively, and <br /> they combined with the mongoose, make an unsightly situation. Especially for the Keiki's <br /> and the people utilizing the run walk trail down there, the run walk path. <br /> The last thing, the cruise ships dumping their waste, close to shore. As I understand it, <br /> they are only restricted half mile to shore. That puts their human waste right back into <br /> Kailua Bay. I know for myself, I got the Staff infection really bad and almost lost my foot. <br /> I had to work with Dr. Alex Totulio and get some pretty aggressive antibiotic, and she was <br /> telling me it's directly from the cruise ship waste being dumped too close to shore. If <br /> there is a way we can start to circulate some information and possibly come up with a <br /> better solution, if not, having them find a way to process their own waste, on a shoreline <br /> facility, at least pushing it further out into the Alenuihaha Channel where it'll get <br /> dispersed more evenly with the harder currents out there. Maybe pushing it out closer <br /> maybe to 5-7 miles. The only reason they are dumping it so close to shore is to save <br /> money on gas prices. Which is terrible, it's really hurting the water quality in Kailua Bay. <br /> It's making it unsafe for swimmers and paddlers. That's how I got it, just paddling wa'a <br /> with Kai Ehituu and it was pretty scary, pretty aggressive form of Staph from that human <br /> waste and pretty disrespectful too. You latterly can see the toilet paper and that kind of <br /> stuff in the water. Well,those are just a few of the concerns I've noticed over the last few <br /> months. <br /> LT: Yes sir, thank you very much - right on. Mahalo for that first commission report. That <br /> was an amazing one. Thank you very much. <br /> ? Aloha <br /> LT: Where to step in. Ahhh...just going back... the Manta Tours, I think a year or two ago, we <br /> max, we counted around eighty (80) one night. <br /> AA: Whew!!!! <br /> LT: Eighty (80) illegal boats, in one night. So, I'm happy that it got down to the thirty (30) <br /> you're talking about. But still, that's Aole! <br /> We to figure that out. <br /> 10 <br />
