What are the chances that HELCO could be convinced that clear cutting the remaining tall trees on 132 from Nanawale to the corner where the hot dog guy sets up would be a great preventative measure?
Or, even better, to run the power underground down to the switching station just past the corner?
In any event to modify their tree program to actually remove dangerous trees instead of trimming a hole in the canopy to allow the wires to pass through.
I understand that the new power generating station on the Hamakua Coast is 'tree farming' for fuel trees. Would the downed Albizias be useful for fuel? Free other than the cost of trucking.
