Mauna Kea's summit area is also an awesome place to watch sunrises. Should we be expecting entry limits and extra costs to visit Mauna kea's summit area in our near future?

An average of 1,000 visitors a day watch the sunrise on the Haleakala summit, that is 365,000 a year. The 365,000 sunrise visitors a year is only 16% of the over 2 million visitors to the Haleakala summit.
The soon to be Millions of visitors a year to Mauna Kea's Summit may cause significant impacts and changes to an already sensitive or critical area. These possible impacts were Conveniently not mentioned or covered in the EIS report for the TMT project, WHY?.
Future entry limits and extra associated costs with visiting the summit of Mauna Kea may not be ways to encourage or promote Hawaiian culture, traditions and practices. Jmo.
