Subject:
Please support Pohakuloa
Aloha Committee Members,
I strongly support this resolution.
US Military training at Pohakuloa has already caused serious harm -burning nearly 20,000 acres,
contaminating the land, and threatening endangered species. Beneath this area lies a major aquifer that
supplies fresh water to Hawaii Island, and the military's track record shows they are not equipped to
protect it.
There is also serious concern about depleted uranium left in the soil, which can become airborne during
exercises and has known health risks.
Pohakuloa is a wahi pana- a sacred place with deep cultural and ecological significance. Continued
military use is incompatible with its conservation status and the values of aloha'aina.

Please supportthis resolution to protect the land, water, and people of Hawaii.
