Very sad. So many takers in a race, trying to earn a dollar exploiting such a wonder as Mauna kea. The natural lake near the top of the mountain has nearly been drained while the extra large eyesores have caused headaches and sickness to those who first believed in maunakea. OHA could make a big difference in not only helping solve these current issues or escalating situations? Helping the Hawaiian people while protecting history and Maunakea forever should be a priority for OHA. JMO or two cents here, OHA needs to stop selling out its own ansesters or people from yesterday for the greed of money for few today, while losing value for all tomorrow.
Sorry Tomk, plenty of healing needs to be done for many including Maunakea. For those scientists and visitors who must drive up to work should be packing and cleaning rather than stocking and building. Maybe some things deserve to be left alone or restored the way they were intended before man? I don't think MaunaKea or our lava should be sold or tampered with by the many lawyers with names today. Enough is enough, Unless it involves the mighty dollar.
I have a buddy who hiked to the lake last weekend and said it has refilled to very close to the usual level, so no, the lake has not "been drained".
