If dredging Pohoiki boat ramp for fishing access was decided by a battle of the bands, surf music vs fisherman's music, I think the Beach Boys and Jan & Dean have got any fishing bands beat, hands down. If there are any fish bands out there rockin' the tuna and trout.
Then there's this:
The state Department of Land and Natural Resources will attempt to expedite the reopening of Pohoiki boat ramp later this month, but the landlocked structure likely will remain unusable until at least the fall.
Because of the financial strain on the fishing industry, Kierkiewicz said the DLNR’s Division of Boating and Ocean Recreation recognized that reopening the ramp must be expedited. To this end, she said, the state found legal provisions that may exempt a dredging project from the need for a time-consuming environmental review, as it would use only existing assets that already passed an environmental review.

I'll repeat the part I placed in bold above: the state found legal provisions that may exempt a dredging project from the need for a time-consuming environmental review
Oh really? An exemption? Which expedites a time consuming environmental review? Tell me more about who can apply for this "found legal provision."
