Potential restrictions to Mauna Kea access

[opihikao]

Mahalo, Mr. Tom, for this thread, and I concur with your assessment of the proposed emergency rules.

BLNR/DLNR continue to fail miserably in conservation, enforcement, and basic management of Mauna Kea.

New Chair of DLNR, Suzanne Case, is a very fair, reasonable, akamai wahine. Attorney General Chin may be percieved as having a conflict of interest, as his firm represented TMT during the permit process.

Further, the proposed rules are full of terminology that will, if passed, end up in litigation. In defense of the administration, none have had to deal with a situation (protest) of this magnitude.

Calling out the National Guard would be the next biggest mistake by the State, the first being closing the road and Visitor's Center.
