Heading: BLNR approval of the first ATST permit: CDUP MA-3542

Text: On November 22, 2010, BLNR held its first public hearing on the ATST’s MP and CDUA. On December 1, 2010, BLNR approved the MP and granted CDUP MA-3542 during its regular board meeting. CDUP MA-3542 permitted the construction of the ATST, subject to several conditions. Kilakila made three requests for a contested case hearing 11 prior to and immediately after BLNR’s approval, and BLNR took no action on the requests. Kilakila subsequently appealed to the circuit court, arguing that BLNR erred in denying Kilakila’s request for a contested case hearing and in granting CDUP MA-3542. 12 See Kilakila I, 131 Hawai'i at 207, 317 P.3d at 41.
