FYI: DLNR has put out a statement (Re: Emergency Rules Decision):
http://dlnr.hawaii.gov/blog/2015/10/10/nr15-156/
If the State, BLNR/DLNR/UH, et al, had all their ducks in a row, followed their own laws, and enforced them, the protestors/protectors wouldn't have a leg to stand on. Instead, the State/BLNR/DLNR/UH, et al., gave them a mountain to stand on!
With this ruling invalidating the emergency rules, the entities in charge of this State (and our resources) have been dealt an embarrassing, well deserved, slap of reality. Thank you, Judge Ibarra. Now, let's see how well they handle the rules already in place (*see DLNR statement above).
Given this ruling, and the Supreme Court decision looming, when it comes, the State/BLNR/DLNR/UH, et al, are really going to have their hands full. Add to that, the Pohakuloa case isn't going very well for the State either. It was another quite embarrassing moment (or two) given the testimony.
The State, overall, is responsible for this chaos. As usual, politics combined with ineptitude is costly. SMH.
Adding BLNR/DLNR to the DHHL/OHA "wish list" to be dissolved.
Useless.
JMO.
ETA: Dakine: [
] EO!
