Subject: Prohibit non mineral sunscreens Time b.65101. By 410
Date MAY 1 6 2 2
I've been coming to the Big Island part time fir 26 yrs. We always stay in Kona and I snorkel Kahalu'u. I ve dobe
volunteer work with Reef Teach. My 12 yr old also volunteered to save the Reef. ON THE PLANES COMING TO
KONA,
PROVIDECA VIDEO that addresses how tourists are to behave
No standing beyond buoys.
No touching marine life
NO TOXIC SUNSCREENS THAT KILL CORAL
I get diligent out there , trying to stop the Reef from being trampled. I've watched the death extend from point of
entry further and further out. I SUGGEST YOU PLACE LIMITS ON THE# OF PEOPLE ALLOWED EACH DAY.
You have a responsibility to utilize the power you have to mandate No toxic sunscreens. It is essential. . There should
not be anything stopping you. There are too many visitors . The Reef is too fragile, and you need to take action.
Thank you for doing what's right to steward from a government level. You Protected the dolphins.. well the reefs
support many species!!!
