CLARKSON: Wait, ma'am, there will be plenty of time to testify. Have you signed up to <br />testify? <br />SUZUKI (from audience): No, do I have to? <br />CLARKSON: If you would like to, please sign up at the front desk. Any other questions from <br />the Commission? <br />RAFFIPIY: I have a question, Mr. Chairman. Who are the other cell carriers that will be on that <br />tower? <br />MARTIN: You know, the carriers can't apply for co -location until the tower is built, but the <br />carriers that are on island right now are just the major four. There's AT&T, Verizon, T -Mobile, <br />and Sprint. <br />CLARKSON: And are these carriers also on the other four towers in Hawaiian Paradise Park? <br />MARTIN: No. <br />CLARKSON: So you—did they build their own towers? <br />MARTIN: No, just like Verizon, we always have a preference to co -locate on a tower. It's less <br />expensive. It just makes more sense. So, if you can find a tower to go on, you're gonna <br />immediately go to that tower. You're not gonna build your own. So, we co -locate on each <br />other's towers all the time as is the policy of the County Planning Department to do so. <br />CLARKSON: But, maybe I'm confused, you're saying nobody has co -located on any of these <br />other four towers? <br />MARTIN: I don't have that information. <br />CLARKSON: Oh. <br />MARTIN: But as far as I know, they're all fairly new, and I don't believe that there has been <br />any co -location applications, but I can find out for you. <br />CLARKSON: Okay, I have one other question. Do you have any liability insurance that covers <br />these towers for damage? <br />MARTIN: Absolutely. Yeah, Verizon's a huge company, of course, they have a lot of <br />insurance. <br />CLARKSON: Well, my question would be why? The representation in the previous testimony <br />was that these towers never fall down or cause damage to neighbors. Why would you bother to <br />have liability insurance? <br />EXHIBIT B <br />6 <br />
