Subject: Re: RESOLUTION 302-12 : ABOLISHING PUBLIC LAND DEV. CORP state program
Dear council members,
I support the resolution 303-12 introduced by Brenda Ford.
Geothermal development in populated areas is potentially toxic and dangerous
in many ways, including leaks of toxic gasses, potentially creating earthquakes in an
unstable area, contamination of groundwater and oceans, creation and storage of
toxic waste, and the potential for accidents that require massive evacuations. These
things must be studied in detail.
An EIS must be required in every project related to developing geothermal
power. Public input must be required before approving projects.
The Public Land Development Corporation needs to be abolished, as it is deeply
flawed in its conception and execution of its actions, and is likely to meet many legal
challenges.

Mahalo Nui Loa for your kokua!
