BLT: made a decision to put it down just out of an abundance of caution. <br />RW: Okay. We're going through with the other 3. So I'll accept that. As <br />far as the other 3, Hansen Information Technologies; Hapuna <br />Prince; and Hawaii Metal Recycling. We're looking at the whole <br />issue of waste management on this island, looking at privatizing <br />and I don't know... is this a contender? <br />BLT: Hawaii Metal Recycling has a contract with the Department of <br />Environmental Management to do some of the recycling. The <br />Council does not draft review, approve or procure those contracts. <br />They are done on a bid or RFP basis by Environmental <br />Management. <br />RW: Okay. <br />BLT: But I just... looking at this, I think maybe one of the questions is... is <br />That, in some cases, you don't know the name of the conference, <br />what the purpose of the conference was, or what the purpose of the <br />trip was. And I think that that would be helpful in some cases like, if <br />the trip to like say, Taipei is by the sister city of the County, you <br />know, if the conference is the solid waste conference... because <br />there are opinions on certain kinds of gifts that you can accept, and <br />those kinds of conference gifts are considered acceptable. <br />I 0ON1 <br />BLT: But I think that in some ways, there isn't enough information about <br />the nature of the gift for you to really understand what it was for and <br />why the council member went to a conference or went on a trip. <br />`Cause those are the real big ticket items. <br />RW: Yeah. Well, I think what we need... <br />BLT: You could ask, I think you could ask for... <br />RW: I want clarification, we'd like clarification, I'd like clarification. I hope <br />you folks feel the same. But, again, when I see, when <br />see... certainly Hokuli'a , that's out there for everyone <br />to read about and understand that that's I guess they're going into <br />litigation again and... when you're out putting I accounts for sure, a <br />representative from same as Hapuna, South Kona or North Kona, <br />I'm not sure where, I'd like clarification on Reynolds' disclosures. <br />Who's Towne Development and what's NACo Conference. Who's <br />Towne Development? What's that all about. Hansen Information <br />Techonologies. What was the conference? Who are they? <br />CHAIR: What is this NACo Conference? <br />
