6-lanes? That's the acquisition the people in the group I was in voted for last night! But don't worry. Nothing's gonna happen for 10 years and, who knows, maybe by then it will be needed.
BTW, the KPAG is stacked with people who either have county interests (for example, Tom Brown, Hele-On director who is going back on all the promises he made in the PCDP process as he ALWAYS does; Larry Brown, County Planner; Liz Salfern, their rubber-stamp) as well as other members of the public who were nowhere around during the Puna CDP process but are advocating for HPP, ORchidland and Ainaloa interests. Neil Erickson, archaeologist and planner, said in our group discussion last night that he didn't even care about the rural end of Puna. The whole process is heavily weighted to the Keaau end of the highway and Shipman wins again!
I left in disgust...it's a total shibai. Sayonara.
