If the Lava blocks Hwy 130, I can see several things happening; People moving, Lower Puna becoming more self sufficient (not necessarily a bad thing), Helicopter shuttles over the flow, increased shuttle vans on both sides of the flow. I think the people who stay would simply adjust to the situation. I do wonder if we would be able to utilize the power from the geothermal plant. Any thoughts on this?
