Pohoiki Boat Ramp - Frank - 11-10-2019 What a Joke! The State/Big Island has $$$$$$ to BURN!!! Taken from the link...“The question is, does the finance committee find it cost-effective to spend $8-$9 million for a temporary ramp, at the same time have a $26 million permanent ramp also being constructed?" https://www.hawaiitribune-herald.com/2019/11/10/hawaii-news/temporary-pohoiki-access-plan-for-boat-ramp-involves-installing-sheet-piles-dredging-channel/ RE: Pohoiki Boat Ramp - kalakoa - 11-10-2019 does the finance committee find it cost-effective Wrong question -- State and County have no problem burning money. Where is the public demanding that our money be spent effectively? That same $8-9M would make for some great "temporary" roads to allow lava recovery; it would also build a "temporary" road for access to the Mauna Kea summit. Meanwhile the poor boaters have the option of using a different boat ramp -- sure, they're scarce, but alternatives exist, unlike access to Leilani or Mauna Kea. RE: Pohoiki Boat Ramp - HereOnThePrimalEdge - 11-10-2019 spend $8-$9 million for a temporary ramp, at the same time have a $26 million permanent ramp If the County takes a go-slow plan on road construction in LZ1 linking property owners with their existing homes, then why build two new boat ramps? That seems rather duplicitous, two different strategies which may face the same potential crisis, possible future lava flows. RE: Pohoiki Boat Ramp - dan d - 11-10-2019 U see whats up if u read it. 1.5 yrs after flow, no ramp. Timeline to make do at least 2-3 yrs. For new ramp. 5-7 yrs maybe 7 -10, or 20. If we make the long ramge one , it may never come in our lifetime. Unfortunately fisherman must launch hilo ,and beat back ito the trade winds to come home. Aloha HPP RE: Pohoiki Boat Ramp - kalakoa - 11-10-2019 fisherman must launch hilo ,and beat back ito the trade winds to come home People in Leilani and Kapoho can't go home. RE: Pohoiki Boat Ramp - terracore - 11-10-2019 What do the unions want? RE: Pohoiki Boat Ramp - BillyB - 11-10-2019 Put DHHL in charge of the boat ramp. They should be able to get one boater in the water by 2060. RE: Pohoiki Boat Ramp - kalakoa - 11-10-2019 one boater in the water by 2060 They won't even have to do that: there won't be any boaters of sufficient Hawaiian blood quanta. RE: Pohoiki Boat Ramp - HereOnThePrimalEdge - 11-10-2019 there won't be any boaters of sufficient Hawaiian blood quanta. Or fish in the warming seas. RE: Pohoiki Boat Ramp - dan d - 11-11-2019 The amount of ahi that used to come into pohoiki was over 70% of the big islands total. Over 50% of the boats that used to go out of pohoiki are not big enough to brave the waters that far south,after launching hilo. Just not safe in strong trade winds. HPP |
