LT: Moving on to District 9 Mr. Justin Akerman, is he in here? <br /> JA: Yeah, all right, I'm alive...Just had to get unmuted. Nothing much to report. Everything <br /> is quiet up here in District 9,just my normal mantra about the range is in pretty good <br /> shape. I know it's not my District, but I'm there every week or two. It's in pretty good <br /> shape...Just remember propane bottles are not targets, it's my, that's my public service <br /> announcement. If you're going to shoot a propane bottle, take it home! <br /> LT: Thank you very much... <br /> JA: Don't make me do it...and I agree with Abel...Stop painting the rocks, I drive that road, I <br /> drive Queen K all the time, living up here, it's disgusting to see lava disgraced like that. <br /> NOTE: Graffiti on Hawaii's lava rocks is widely considered disgraceful because it is illegal, culturally <br /> disrespectful, and a form of vandalism against a sacred and historic landscape. While some <br /> might mistake it for a form of local expression, this practice harms the natural environment and <br /> defaces culturally significant sites. Graffiti on Hawaii Island lava rocks take several forms: <br /> • Coral graffiti:For many years, people would use white pieces of coral to spell out words or create <br /> designs on the black lava fields, particularly along the highway in Waikoloa. Years of community <br /> effort and cleanups have reduced this practice. <br /> • Painted graffiti:More blatant vandalism with spray paint has been found on rocks in protected <br /> areas, including the Mauna Kea Ice Age Natural Area Reserve. <br /> • Rock structures and cairns: The building of rock cairns(piles)and other structures from coral and <br /> archaeological stone is considered disrespectful and prohibited in national parks <br /> LT: Okay Thank you very much...that ends our District updates...Moving on to Agenda 5 <br /> Presentations Agenda 5 A Our first presentation is by Bret Nainoa Mossman, DLNR <br /> Division of Forestry and Wildlife (DOFA) Natural Area Reserve System, Hawaii Island <br /> Avian Biologist to speak on the "Palila and its Endangered Species Recovery Status and <br /> Analysis including analysis of the "Technical Report HCSU-115 2022-2024 Status and <br /> Trends of the Palia (Loxioides Bailleui)."
