Health issues aside from dumped rotten carcasses, a key issue that no one is addressing is the fire threat from these green waste piles. Several firefighters I know say that illegal green waste dumping is the largest fire threat they face island-wide.
There are so many new people her in HPP and lower Puna who have no clue about the brush fires that this area experienced in the 1980s and 90s. Thousands of acres burned. Even a fire a few acres in size could cause big problems.
IMHO @Wax is wrong to say give it some slack.
As far as I'm concerned, the lack of permits on behalf of HPPOA is another example of their hubris.
