Hawaii Game Management Advisory Commission Meeting <br />Minutes – November 13, 2018 <br />KS: Um-hum. <br /> <br />NP: Did that change the location of the herds? <br /> <br />KS: I don’t know. Likely, I mean – I did see animals kind of move out of the area <br />but then back in but we haven’t – we didn’t go out and specifically monitor for <br />that so I don’t know... <br /> <br />NP: So it didn’t harm their population. <br /> <br />KS: I mean if you go back and look there’s a whole bunch of new growth and <br />that’s probably good for the animals... <br /> <br />NP: Right now, yeah, it looks beautiful. <br /> <br />KS: It would have displaced them for a while – probably did have an effect – I <br />don’t know thought, I didn’t go out and qualify – we didn’t go out and survey <br />specifically for that. <br /> <br />TL: I have one – back to your original – or not original comment you made earlier <br />about working ongoing with fencing and some of these other things – which <br />are part of the plan – why is it also some of the game things that you were <br />planning on doing not being implemented now as well? <br /> <br />KS: Sorry. I don’t know how to answer this question - because it wouldn’t be in <br />compliance with the laws – that’s basically why and so the idea behind the <br />plan was supposed to get us in compliance with the State and the Federal <br />Endangered Species Act but because the plan is not finalized – any actions I <br />do to improve or enhance game is not compliant – is against the law. So <br />that’s the basic answer. <br /> <br />TL: But your plans are presumably compliant, right? <br /> <br />KS: But they’re not finalized so they’re not – they haven’t been passed by the <br />Board of Land and Natural Resources so it’s a plan in draft that’s not – it <br />means nothing until it’s approved by the Board. <br /> <br />TN: Has the plan been submitted to the Board? <br /> <br />KS: Yeah, no, we were told it was completed in 2015. <br /> <br />TN: If it was completed in 2015... <br /> <br />KS: I would have to go back and look at minutes – I don’t think that’s true. <br /> <br />11 <br /> <br /> <br />
