2025-07-15 GMAC Minutes Final Draft

Home

AA: (Abraham Antonio) I just wanted to touch up little bit on that, you know we were there and opposed the 800 acres, and asked them what their plan and what was the negotiation that they would like to come up with? Of course,you know they mentioned the 400 acres and at the time I still opposed that 400 acres, I totally agree with what Steven is saying. We see what they come back with, it's still an open negotiation between the hunting community and I guest with GMAC representatives that were there and with the DOFAW NARS representatives. Nothing is in stone yet, still in negotiations and their reasoning, you guys already know, it's for the birds, the birds is moving down slowly, that's why they like go down and if we give them anymore acreage,then how much more they going take, then Kulani and Mauna Loa slopes going end up like Mauna kea too as well, then will get fenced off, then eradicated. Then we really not going to have anything to provide for our families. That's all I can say for that, for now. LT: Yes, Sir, thank you very much and thank you for always fighting for our Game management. 7. NEW BUSINESS: a. The commission intends to discuss topics for future GMAC agenda presentation. Chair Turalde. LT: We got our next meeting basically covered with our presentations and we can start lining them up again, for September, October, .... RD: Chair, Duerr District 1...It's kind a like what we had today, for issues one (1) Claudia Rohr was asking to be on the agenda for the Pepeekeo public access. Jordan Lerma (sp?) was talking about a report for the cats and also, he has a pig dot Pua'a mapping system, potential also just an update for the General Plans. This may be under other business, just small reports, at least the public knows. There was also a question about DOFAW, what's the regulations on DOFAW ...inaudible? Mr. Araujo was talking about, one time they had a system, and they constantly watered it down. Also, commissioner Ley has not been able to get reports from DOFAW on this. The other thing that's coming up is the Gun Regulations reports, so when you guys go to that meeting to be able to have on the agenda a report and just an update. The other thing too, we just was on is NARS, You have somebody from NARS make a presentation, what is their jurisdiction, why are they up there, what do they do on this Island? How many acres do they have? Chair there is also, at our last June 16t", meeting, we were given a memorandum by Merrick Nishimoto, which was the enclosed administrative process for Game Management Commission, it's hard to know if this is a proposed memorandum? It was three (3) pages where he was telling us what is essentially needs to happen at our meetings. Do we need to have him come here and kind of explain this memorandum? KW: Try ask Barbara, if she knows. 31
