Hawaii Game Management Advisory Commission Meeting Minutes - May 13, 2013 T. Lodge: I was wondering if maybe we could – I don’t know if this is the proper time to address Lisa (Hadway) - but to maybe \[unclear\] this is our issue and is there any way that before these things become violent that we can address these things here. You know, and see how that works. Chair Sylvester: Ok. B. Command: Discussion in Kona. C. Bailey: I agree with what you suggest – but that’s just one facet of this rule change – and there’s other issues in this HAR 124 rule change that needs to be addressed – I feel. If you look at the Ordinance 1210 and what our commission is tasked – I’ll read right from it – it basically says that we’re to advise the County, the State and the Federal agencies, you know, affect, you know, \[unclear\] wildlife including proposed rules – so that’s one of our tasks – and I’m just asking that – in getting our County Council – or maybe the Mayor’s Office to make a suggestion that this is what he hears from the commission that they’re hearing from the public – to include more issues on this 124 then this transporting pigs here. You know, we can refer this to a different meeting where we can itemize the issues – all the other different issues – that we would request say the Mayor’s Office or the County Council to address DLNR or the Board before they make this final decision on this rule change – that’s it. Chair Sylvester: OK, Cleon. Thank you, yes, I think that’s – we’ll probably have to pick that up on another meeting – but for sure – I’ve been trying to just focus on one issue – and see if I can get some results of that and difficult with just that particular issue, so… I wish I had better news. Thank you. Any other discussion on that? Ok. Next one is - 5. Report on KSBE and hunting opportunities. P. Bueltmann: Ok. I’ve been talking with a representative from KSBE – she’s Meilani Browning. I got her contact information from an RFP that was released earlier in the year for animal management on some other properties – so just to get it straight – you know – their property never gonna allow public access, you know, as far as hunting goes on their properties 22
