TMT Work to Resume Says Ige!

BREAKING:.......

"As done at any construction site, we plan to first investigate and assess any possible oil leakage and ensure we can provide proper maintenance of machines and equipment so they operate safely and correctly - in order to protect Maunakea and preserve the sensitive environment. We will then begin to repair and install fencing in the interest of public safety."

"As we proceed, TMT is open and willing to allow cultural practitioners in the area of the construction site to continue customary and traditional practices. Allowing this practice to continue to occur will require further dialogue and mutual agreement to work out the details in order to establish a cooperative and harmonious environment for all parties."

"In an effort to be sensitive to and observant of the Native Hawaiian host culture, we will deepen our knowledge of the cultural, ecological, and spiritual aspects of the mountain and continue to learn how to better respect and appreciate Maunakea's important cultural areas."

taking the old idiom "bending over backwards" to new painfully contortionist lengths.
