At the very least DLNR has mud on their face, and the TMT is a long way from a done deal. Even if the justices decide in the TMT's favor I think the way the issue has been received clearly upholds the issues raised by the Hawaiians as valid concerns.
They may be valid concerns, but if the HawSCT upholds the lower Court's ruling the project will move forward regardless. There is only two ways this project won't move forward A) If the Court invalidates the TMT's CDUP, or B) refers it back to the BLNR for further consideration.
I hope for everyone's sake they do not decide to refer this back to the BLNR. It will continue this divisive atmosphere where nobody wins. The whole community will be held hostage by this circus once again. The end game will probably be same if it goes this route. Then what will the opponents do then? File another lawsuit??
