RE: TMT construction begins Monday 15 July - leilanidude - 07-17-2019
What I find difficult to understand is that as the protesters who were under the tents were arrested (the tents were in the road) others came into the tent and took their places. Why did the police allow others to do this in the first place?

From Blaze Lovell on Twitter:
So what does this emergency proclamation, in practice, actually do? Not much more than what's happening now on #MaunaKea, but it grants some important powers and suspends certain rules. Let's take a look
It invokes HRS 127A-13 and 127A-12, which grants the governor broad powers typically reserved for things like natural disasters. Here, Ige doesn't use the full extent of that statute, and only suspends laws necessary to carry out activities for #TMT
Such as suspending HRS 46, which grants basic powers to counties. This could make it easier to operate without running up against Hawaii County
Looks like the state will take charge from here on out.

The text of the Emergency Proclamation is here:
https://governor.hawaii.gov/wp-content/uploads/2019/07/1907086-Mauna-Kea.pdf
Invokes good ole 127A, including our old friend 127a-13a allowing the "mandatory evacuation of the civilian population" as used during the recent lava flows to force people out (for their own good). Turns out leilanidude, you potentially do have something in common with the protesters!

Come on fellow scientists, you can do better than this?
Sorry ironyak, science is an emotional sport hereabouts.

Anyone know if there is a open or closed on line posting for saddle road,or number to call. I don't want to get stuck on the way to work in Kona tomorrow morning.

BillyB, if you haven't signed up for civil defense or Nixle alerts via email or text, your best bet is probably:

What a bizarre day. All I can do is paraphrase someone from the Institute for Astronomy late this afternoon.
"I can't explain what happened today, I can only describe it".

Sadly, that's true for most Hawaii government actions any more...

The TMT has now made it into the top six stories on the BBC news home page:

Day 4
About 100-200 protestors remain at Mauna Kea Access Road.
At 7:00 AM, no police, DLNR, or national guard.
