<br />Hawaii Game Management Advisory Commission Meeting <br />Minutes – February 24, 2014 <br /> <br />Chair Sylvester: That was the number I’m looking for. So 180? And that’s in 10 <br />years? <br /> <br />L. Hadway: By 2021. <br /> <br />Chair Sylvester: And then after that is? Just take care of what you guys have? <br /> <br />L.
