IEM_11-16-15 1 2783.36 5.20 I<space>probably<space>ran<space>too<space>long<space>anyway,<space>but<space>certainly<space>glad<space>to<space>answer<space>questions<space>later.
IEM_11-16-15 1 2789.20 2.48 Thank<space>you,<space>Russell.

IEM_11-16-15 1 2798.00 1.36 My<space>name<space>is<space>Mark<space>Decos.
IEM_11-16-15 1 2799.36 5.76 I'm<space>the<space>Director<space>of<space>the<space>Hawaii<space>Association<space>for<space>Marine<space>Education<space>and<space>Research.
IEM_11-16-15 1 2805.28 3.52 And<space>I'm<space>just<space>gonna<space>touch<space>on<space>the<space>land-based<space>side<space>of<space>things.
IEM_11-16-15 1 2809.12 6.96 We<space>talked<space>about<space>the<space>things<space>that<space>we<space>can<space>control,<space>the<space>extraction,<space>and<space>then<space>the<space>land-based<space>pollution.
IEM_11-16-15 1 2816.16 3.04 Russell<space>touched<space>on<space>a<space>lot<space>of<space>the<space>extraction<space>stuff.
IEM_11-16-15 1 2819.68 4.48 You've<space>seen<space>these<space>photos,<space>we're<space>seeing<space>a<space>lot<space>more<space>of<space>these<space>photos.
IEM_11-16-15 1 2824.16 8.24 I've<space>heard<space>you<space>guys<space>are<space>discussing<space>this<space>in<space>your<space>council<space>meetings<space>where<space>we're<space>getting<space>much<space>more<space>discharge<space>happening<space>on<space>the<space>reefs.
IEM_11-16-15 1 2832.48 7.20 Sediment<space>is<space>the<space>number<space>one<space>problem<space>that's<space>impacting<space>our<space>reefs<space>that<space>we<space>have<space>control<space>over.
IEM_11-16-15 1 2839.76 4.96 So<space>I<space>really<space>started<space>to<space>look<space>into<space>why<space>is<space>this<space>becoming<space>more<space>and<space>more<space>of<space>a<space>problem?
IEM_11-16-15 1 2844.88 9.04 So<space>sediment<space>101,<space>whenever<space>there's<space>a<space>construction,<space>anytime<space>you<space>displace<space>dirt,<space>you<space>move<space>vegetation<space>development<space>pretty<space>much.
IEM_11-16-15 1 2854.08 8.32 You're<space>gonna<space>allow<space>those<space>soils<space>to<space>be<space>free<space>to<space>move<space>down<space>the<space>mountain<space>by<space>wind<space>or<space>by<space>by<space>water.
IEM_11-16-15 1 2862.48 3.76 So<space>we<space>recognize<space>that<space>and<space>so<space>we<space>have...
IEM_11-16-15 1 2866.24 3.92 We<space>actually<space>have<space>pretty<space>good<space>laws<space>to<space>prevent<space>that<space>from<space>entering<space>the<space>water.
IEM_11-16-15 1 2870.24 10.32 We<space>have<space>the<space>Clean<space>Water<space>Act<space>and<space>when<space>a<space>developer<space>applies<space>for<space>a<space>permit,<space>they<space>are<space>required<space>to<space>get<space>what<space>we<space>call<space>the<space>NPDS<space>permit.
IEM_11-16-15 1 2883.28 9.12 And<space>the<space>permit<space>basically<space>states,<space>we'll<space>allow<space>you<space>to<space>discharge,<space>but<space>you<space>have<space>to<space>meet<space>the<space>Department<space>of<space>Health's<space>water<space>quality<space>standards,<space>right?
IEM_11-16-15 1 2892.96 16.24 And<space>those<space>standards<space>are<space>pretty<space>strict,<space>and<space>if<space>we<space>look<space>at<space>what<space>those<space>standards<space>are,<space>it's<space>really<space>hard<space>to<space>see<space>there,<space>but<space>basically<space>their<space>values<space>of<space>turbidity<space>and<space>nutrients<space>and<space>whatnot,<space>the<space>threshold<space>can't<space>breach.
IEM_11-16-15 1 2909.28 7.36 So<space>we<space>have<space>all<space>the<space>laws<space>in<space>place<space>to<space>prevent<space>that<space>discharge<space>from<space>reaching<space>the<space>ocean.
IEM_11-16-15 1 2916.88 1.60 So<space>what<space>is<space>the<space>problem?
IEM_11-16-15 1 2918.56 10.40 Well,<space>a<space>lot<space>of<space>these<space>permits,<space>we<space>call<space>the<space>NPS<space>Permit,<space>that<space>allows<space>you<space>to<space>go<space>and<space>disturb<space>the<space>earth,<space>they're<space>self-monitored.
IEM_11-16-15 1 2929.04 9.76 So<space>your<space>requirement<space>for<space>compliance<space>is<space>to<space>basically<space>walk<space>the<space>grounds,<space>look<space>at<space>what<space>we<space>call<space>BMPs,<space>Best<space>Management<space>Practices.
IEM_11-16-15 1 2938.80 6.24 A<space>lot<space>of<space>times<space>they're<space>sediment<space>basins<space>to<space>capture<space>that<space>sediment<space>in<space>the<space>water<space>or<space>they're<space>silk<space>fences.
IEM_11-16-15 1 2945.28 5.12 There's<space>a<space>lot<space>of<space>different<space>types,<space>but<space>there's<space>no<space>actual<space>monitoring<space>of<space>the<space>discharge.
IEM_11-16-15 1 2950.40 12.40 So<space>if<space>you're<space>not<space>monitoring<space>what's<space>coming<space>out<space>of<space>the<space>outflow<space>points,<space>it<space>really<space>doesn't<space>matter<space>how<space>well<space>your<space>BMPs<space>look,<space>you're<space>still<space>discharging<space>impaired<space>water.
IEM_11-16-15 1 2963.28 6.56 So<space>the<space>difficulty<space>here<space>as<space>well,<space>DOH<space>has<space>so<space>much<space>of<space>a<space>budget,<space>so<space>much<space>staff.
IEM_11-16-15 1 2970.00 4.88 They<space>can't<space>go<space>and<space>monitor<space>and<space>take<space>samples<space>of<space>all<space>of<space>these<space>discharge<space>areas.
IEM_11-16-15 1 2974.88 5.84 So<space>how<space>do<space>we<space>prevent<space>that<space>sediment,<space>which<space>carries<space>with<space>it<space>all<space>the<space>pollutants,<space>all<space>the<space>nutrients.
IEM_11-16-15 1 2980.80 3.44 How<space>do<space>we<space>keep<space>at<space>its<space>source?
IEM_11-16-15 1 2984.64 5.92 Well,<space>they<space>have<space>automated<space>monitors<space>now,<space>so<space>people<space>are<space>using<space>them<space>on<space>the<space>east<space>coast.
IEM_11-16-15 1 2990.56 5.92 And<space>basically,<space>they're<space>just<space>sensors<space>that<space>you<space>can<space>put<space>in<space>front<space>of<space>a<space>discharge<space>area.
IEM_11-16-15 1 2996.72 4.24 You<space>can<space>have<space>them<space>measure<space>turbidity,<space>pH,<space>suspended<space>solids.
IEM_11-16-15 1 3001.12 6.40 You<space>can<space>add<space>whatever<space>sensors<space>you<space>want<space>to<space>them,<space>and<space>you<space>can<space>attach<space>a<space>remote<space>communicator.
IEM_11-16-15 1 3007.76 6.88 Basically<space>through<space>satellite<space>or<space>through<space>a<space>Wi-fi<space>signal,<space>you<space>can<space>send<space>all<space>that<space>information<space>in<space>real<space>time.
IEM_11-16-15 1 3014.88 4.48 So<space>either<space>to<space>the<space>enforcement,<space>to<space>the<space>developer<space>themselves.
IEM_11-16-15 1 3019.52 2.96 So<space>this<space>is<space>real<space>time<space>data<space>that's<space>coming<space>in.
IEM_11-16-15 1 3022.80 7.68 Once<space>they're<space>installed,<space>you<space>sit<space>back,<space>sit<space>in<space>your<space>office<space>and<space>you'll<space>get<space>a<space>text<space>message,<space>if<space>there's<space>a<space>breach<space>in<space>one<space>of<space>the<space>parameters.
IEM_11-16-15 1 3030.72 3.20 Very<space>low<space>cost<space>once<space>they're<space>set<space>up.
IEM_11-16-15 1 3034.56 12.72 And<space>like<space>I<space>said,<space>the<space>current<space>way<space>of<space>measuring,<space>we<space>mentioned<space>the<space>water<space>quality<space>standards<space>are<space>90%<space>impaired<space>in<space>Maui<space>and<space>just<space>as<space>bad<space>in<space>the<space>other<space>counties<space>as<space>well.

IEM_11-16-15 1 3061.52 3.76 DOH<space>has<space>a<space>mandate<space>to<space>manage<space>that<space>watershed.
IEM_11-16-15 1 3065.28 6.08 You're<space>getting<space>inputs<space>from<space>development,<space>from<space>natural<space>sources,<space>from<space>the<space>ungulates,<space>disturbing<space>the<space>dirt.
IEM_11-16-15 1 3071.36 1.36 There's<space>a<space>lot<space>of<space>different<space>sources.
IEM_11-16-15 1 3072.72 8.88 It's<space>very<space>hard<space>to<space>capture<space>and<space>figure<space>out<space>where<space>all<space>those<space>sources<space>are<space>and<space>develop<space>what<space>they<space>call<space>a<space>pollutant<space>budget.
IEM_11-16-15 1 3082.88 8.16 If<space>you<space>set<space>up<space>these<space>automators,<space>you're<space>basically<space>controlling<space>and<space>understanding<space>what<space>those<space>points<space>sources<space>are<space>contributing.
IEM_11-16-15 1 3091.04 1.60 So<space>there's<space>no<space>mystery<space>there.
IEM_11-16-15 1 3092.64 3.44 It<space>helps<space>DOH<space>to<space>understand<space>it.
IEM_11-16-15 1 3096.08 4.48 And<space>if<space>you<space>can<space>look<space>at<space>rainfall<space>data,<space>and<space>very<space>subtle<space>changes.
IEM_11-16-15 1 3100.56 2.40 If<space>you<space>get<space>all<space>of<space>a<space>sudden,<space>a<space>sudden...

IEM_11-16-15 1 3118.24 2.00 You<space>cannot<space>mitigate<space>after<space>that.

IEM_11-16-15 1 3151.52 3.76 So<space>a<space>lot<space>of<space>times<space>people<space>don't<space>get<space>out<space>there<space>too<space>long<space>after<space>this.
IEM_11-16-15 1 3155.68 4.24 You<space>can<space>look<space>on<space>your<space>computer<space>any<space>time.

IEM_11-16-15 1 3180.00 3.36 Now,<space>the<space>question<space>is<space>who<space>does<space>this?
IEM_11-16-15 1 3183.44 2.32 How<space>is<space>it<space>paid<space>for<space>and<space>all<space>that?
IEM_11-16-15 1 3185.76 5.20 So<space>my<space>suggestion<space>would<space>be<space>through<space>the<space>application,<space>the<space>MPDs<space>permit.
IEM_11-16-15 1 3191.04 10.88 You<space>pay<space>a<space>fee,<space>so<space>you<space>could<space>have<space>a<space>fee<space>of<space>fund,<space>the<space>mitigation<space>fund<space>that<space>helps<space>with<space>the<space>monitoring,<space>so<space>a<space>third<space>party.

IEM_11-16-15 1 3233.52 1.76 They're<space>gonna<space>be<space>more<space>and<space>more<space>common.
IEM_11-16-15 1 3235.36 2.24 So<space>how<space>do<space>we<space>stop<space>that<space>from<space>happening?
IEM_11-16-15 1 3237.76 10.48 So<space>if<space>they<space>implement<space>a<space>fee<space>that<space>goes<space>and<space>allows<space>the<space>establishment<space>of<space>these<space>automated<space>sensors,<space>you<space>just<space>basically<space>park<space>them<space>out<space>at<space>the<space>discharge<space>spots.

IEM_11-16-15 1 3259.44 2.56 And<space>the<space>developer's<space>paying<space>for<space>that<space>service.
IEM_11-16-15 1 3262.00 3.12 So<space>there's<space>no<space>extra<space>budget<space>needed.
IEM_11-16-15 1 3265.12 7.52 There's<space>no<space>extra<space>manpower<space>needed<space>by<space>DOH.<space>And<space>you<space>understand<space>exactly<space>where<space>and<space>when<space>these<space>events<space>are<space>happening.

IEM_11-16-15 1 3361.84 2.48 The<space>state<space>needs<space>to<space>be<space>more<space>involved.

IEM_11-16-15 1 3852.00 2.88 Probably,<space>there's<space>a<space>lot<space>of<space>legal<space>activity.
IEM_11-16-15 1 3854.96 2.40 There's<space>not<space>a<space>whole<space>lot<space>of<space>restrictions<space>on<space>fishing.

IEM_11-16-15 1 5427.20 1.60 Just<space>want<space>to<space>make<space>sure<space>the<space>members<space>have<space>it.

IEM_11-16-15 1 5467.28 4.32 Across,<space>I<space>guess,<space>in<space>some<space>ways,<space>our<space>roadway.
IEM_11-16-15 1 5472.64 3.12 And<space>they<space>have<space>they're<space>private<space>lots.
IEM_11-16-15 1 5476.00 1.52 We<space>do<space>not<space>own<space>them.
IEM_11-16-15 1 5478.16 11.84 They're<space>last<space>owned<space>by,<space>it<space>looks<space>like<space>Frank<space>Munoz,<space>Jesse<space>Munoz<space>and<space>Emmmanuel<space>Sui.
IEM_11-16-15 1 5490.16 13.60 And<space>as<space>far<space>as<space>we<space>know,<space>they<space>were<space>never<space>probated,<space>but<space>they<space>also<space>included<space>on<space>these<space>long,<space>skinny<space>lots,<space>a<space>license<space>to<space>the<space>county<space>of<space>Maui<space>for<space>future<space>drainage<space>or<space>sewer<space>lines<space>improvements.

IEM_11-16-15 1 5510.00 3.60 We<space>had<space>no<space>intention<space>of<space>installing<space>either<space>of<space>them.
IEM_11-16-15 1 5513.92 10.64 So<space>we<space>were<space>interested<space>in<space>canceling<space>that<space>license<space>because<space>we<space>do<space>get<space>an<space>occasional<space>call<space>from<space>someone<space>that<space>says,<space>"You<space>gotta<space>come<space>clean<space>out<space>your<space>lots".
IEM_11-16-15 1 5524.56 6.48 They're<space>not<space>our<space>lots<space>and<space>the<space>license<space>just<space>gave<space>us<space>the<space>right<space>to<space>install,<space>either<space>drain<space>our<space>sewer<space>lines.
IEM_11-16-15 1 5531.12 2.80 And<space>yet<space>we<space>have<space>no<space>intention<space>of<space>doing<space>so.
IEM_11-16-15 1 5534.32 3.12 So<space>we<space>want<space>to<space>basically<space>cancel<space>license.
IEM_11-16-15 1 5537.52 8.88 Normally<space>a<space>license,<space>you<space>can<space>ask<space>core<space>council<space>here,<space>but<space>normally<space>a<space>license<space>has<space>a<space>30<space>day<space>cancel<space>clause<space>by<space>either<space>party.

IEM_11-16-15 1 5549.04 1.52 There's<space>no<space>notice<space>in<space>here.
IEM_11-16-15 1 5550.64 4.88 The<space>way<space>the<space>license<space>is<space>written,<space>it's<space>written,<space>as<space>it<space>says,<space>acts<space>as<space>an<space>easement.
IEM_11-16-15 1 5556.00 4.96 So,<space>I<space>thought<space>it's<space>best<space>that<space>we<space>have<space>a<space>council<space>action.
IEM_11-16-15 1 5560.96 11.84 It<space>would<space>be<space>a<space>resolution<space>and<space>we<space>can<space>then<space>record<space>on<space>the<space>property<space>to<space>show<space>that<space>the<space>county<space>has<space>no<space>interest<space>in<space>executing<space>this<space>license.
IEM_11-16-15 1 5573.20 7.36 If<space>for<space>some<space>reason<space>in<space>the<space>future,<space>it<space>is<space>desired<space>by<space>the<space>county<space>to<space>use<space>these<space>parcels.
IEM_11-16-15 1 5580.56 3.28 And<space>by<space>the<space>way,<space>these<space>parcels<space>are<space>10<space>feet<space>wide.
IEM_11-16-15 1 5586.56 3.52 It's<space>really<space>not<space>enough<space>room<space>to<space>even<space>backhoe<space>in<space>there<space>and<space>work.
IEM_11-16-15 1 5590.64 7.60 But<space>if<space>for<space>some<space>reason,<space>the<space>county<space>did<space>want<space>to<space>acquire<space>those<space>parcels,<space>the<space>parcels<space>are<space>basically<space>sitting<space>out<space>there.
IEM_11-16-15 1 5599.92 5.04 Again,<space>last<space>owned<space>by<space>three<space>individuals<space>who<space>as<space>far<space>as<space>we<space>know,<space>never<space>probated<space>them<space>out.
IEM_11-16-15 1 5605.20 5.68 So<space>I<space>suppose<space>we<space>could<space>go<space>to<space>court,<space>get<space>control<space>of<space>the<space>properties<space>if<space>indeed<space>we<space>needed<space>to.
IEM_11-16-15 1 5611.28 13.68 So<space>anyway,<space>that's<space>the<space>purpose<space>of<space>this<space>resolution<space>today,<space>again,<space>is<space>to<space>formally<space>sever<space>our<space>ties<space>with<space>the<space>license<space>agreement<space>and<space>carry<space>on.
