Time to submit support for “Try Wait” in order to sustain fishing and our coral health off of our shoreline.

As presented on the blog in the past as well as at a Monday Night Mooch, it’s time to support the “Try Wait” plan for the waters off of Kaupulehu shoreline.

The Board of Land & Natural Resources (BLNR) will hold a final hearing on Oahu (foreign Turf) on May 27th. The final decision on the “Try Wait” proposal will occur with the conclusion of this meeting. Due to the fact that this hearing is being scheduled on Memorial Day weekend and on Oahu many of our Big Island supporters will not be available to testify in support of this proposal. The opposition (commercial fishers) may have an advantage.

Testimony needs to be resubmitted for this meeting and may be submitted as follows:

                   fax:       (808) 587-0390  Attn: Board Members

                  e-mail: kuulei.n.moses@hawaii.gov

                  mail:     Department of Land and Natural Resources

                              Attn:  Board Members

                              1151 Punchbowl Street, Room 130,

                              Honolulu, Hawaii  96813.

ALL TESTIMONY NEEDS TO BE RECEIVED PRIOR TO THE MEETING
