I'm not going to argue with you Jeff. I think your opinions are perfectly valid. I don't own land there. I am not aware that 80% of the shoreline is unavailable. I think that 80-90% of the shoreline is simply dangerous. Waves on rocks.
It should be remembered that the public shore waters are indeed public. Over a number of decades private property owners have dug and developed private ponds or pools on their lots. I have not heard any suggestions that those privately held pools should be open to the public.
The real problem I see is the general lack of attention, planning and concern for the people of Puna by the Department of Land and Natural Resources (DLNR).
