State, but we now have separation between government and people. And that's why us people <br />keep coming back because of this kind of outrageous separation where we're not able to get, you <br />know, the safety that we desperately need and with continuously anxiety disorder symptoms. I <br />have them because I don't know what's going to happen next as far as this is all concerned, and <br />I'm outside the zone, so-called zone of being able to be helped. <br />Anyhow, so that's all about all I have to say, I think. I don't know how all this goes with the, <br />between the Commission and the procurement and whether we're actually, I'm going to have to <br />listen to what other people say about whether the investigation although the only last thing. <br />These stupid studies, whatever they say, they have to go to the real estate agents. Those agents <br />are still selling and reselling those homes right on, next to the plant itself. That has to stop. That <br />is ridiculous. <br />Okay, that's it. <br />FISHER: My name is Melinda Fisher, and I own a house about a tenth of a mile right across <br />from the geothermal plant. My husband's a stockbroker. He wants to be here, but he's gotta <br />make money in the market. It's open right now. And, my daughter lives in the house. I bought <br />a safer place up in Mountain View so she could come there in case lava came. So, I have a safer <br />place. She is right across with her husband and her baby. She's nursing her baby. The baby <br />her friends wouldn't even come to her birthday party. I had to have it up at my house, because <br />they're afraid. They really don't know what happened with these last two leaks. It's a <br />mushroom cloud. I hope you have all seen a picture of it. It's on You Tube. It's a giant <br />mushroom cloud that comes out, and it's got hydrogen sulfide gas in it. Well, that kills sewer <br />workers in my hometown of Fairview, Texas. Killed several of `em. Wichita Falls, it killed two <br />of 'em—it's a month apart and Wichita Falls, Texas. <br />If this mushroom cloud, the wind blows itif it comes and lands on your house or my way or <br />this house, and it usually comes downwind. They all go to the plant entrance upwind and get <br />their little monitor readings. This comes down, and you can hear it. It's deafening. It's just like <br />a steam kettle. Can you imagine a steam kettle as big as a plant? And, they can hardly hear `em <br />talk. I had gotten her—after Iselle, that happened when she was five months pregnant. And, <br />then, it leaked. For five days it leaked, and they lied and said they were just cleaning out their <br />pipes. And, you can look on You Tube, and you can look at the Puna Pono Alliance, and you <br />can see the meetings where they're saying oh yeah, we're just cleaning out the tubes and then <br />they go oh, we have it fixed. Five days later, they fix their leak. There's leaks all the time from <br />there, and she evacuates. Nobody covers it. Nobody cares. Nothing is written anywhere. She's <br />evacuated. <br />I talked to the EPA and the guy said well, she's not supposed to evacuate, she's supposed to take <br />cover. Well, what about the pentane? In January, the pentane could explode, and the plant itself <br />is supposed to make the worst case scenario of who that's going to affect? Well, she's a—she's <br />right on Pohoiki Road. She can see the plant. She saw the one at night-time. It was [an] orange <br />mushroom cloud right up above her. It was deafening. She called me on the phone. "Mom, it's <br />happening again!" She gets in her car. She comes, she has to open the gate and then close the <br />gate `cause she has three big dogs. She leaves her husband there because he's afraid people are <br />EXHIBIT C <br />10 <br />
