GIFFIN: Any other questions? All right. Ryan, were you wanting to speak, too? KANAKA‘OLE: Yes, thank you. GIFFIN: You may. KANAKA‘OLE: Deputy Corporation Counsel, Ryan Kanaka‘ole. As you already know that the letter received yesterday was withdrawing the petition for standing in a contested case. Prior to the October 18 meeting, Mr. Vitousek also filed a motion for continuation upon a finding of standing. And we are just asking that the motion is still, be effectively denied because it’s moot at this point. GIFFIN: Mr. Torigoe? TORIGOE: Yes, Madam Chairwoman, it seems like with its withdrawal of the request that the matter is effectively moot; but for the record, if you want to just ask the Commission if there are any objections to the request for continuance being considered moot and denied at this point, that would probably be helpful. GIFFIN: Okay. So just for the record, Commissioners, is there anyone who would oppose having this request for continuance be dropped? Hearing none, okay, so, is that official enough, Ivan? TORIGOE: Yes. GIFFIN: Okay, good. So, pau. Okay. Anybody else from your team, Brandon, who would like to testify? GONZALEZ: No, Madam Chair, thank you. GIFFIN: Okay. We do have five people who have signed up to testify. And I do have, and correct me, if I’m wrong, I did review the minutes of our last meeting, and some of these names look familiar, and I think that at least No. 4 and No. 5 have already testified: Patricia Holum and Bob Ward. Okay, I know that you two already testified, and I would like to hear first from Mike Hemand, Julie Lederer and Lester Lederer. Will you please come forward? And in consideration of the hour, I am going to limit your testimony to three minutes. HERNANDEZ: Did you say Michael? GIFFIN: I’m sorry, Mike Hemand? HERNANDEZ: (Inaudible.) GIFFIN: I’m sorry? HERNANDEZ: Hernandez? GIFFIN: No. H-E-M-A-N-D? DARROW: Maybe it was, we were trying to read -. 7 EXHIBIT E
