The probability of geothermal anywhere in Hawaii other than at the present site at PGV requires
Cracking is extremely high and due to human impatience, water alone will not be sufficient. They will
need proprietary chemistry to do the job and that will put our water table at risk. If geothermal is
supposed to provide hydrogen, ammonium and probably some metal smelting for Oahu, why not frack
I
lonolulu instead? That'll save transportation costs and any potential spills. Geothermal should not be
allowed within 8 miles of human habitation, especially here in Hawaii. For those who trot out Iceland,
their geology is very different. The island is a part of the mid oceanic ocean range system, the only part
other then a few islands in the South Atlantic and the African Rift Valley, the only part of that system
above water. It isn't the same, and there are those with medical complaints from outside of the drilling
area, so it isn't perfect there like many like to believe.
I'd love to testily from Pahoa, so would you please get the Puna District 4 County Office up and
running'?
