Streamlining of cumbersome regulations
could help Kawaihae Harbor users
By Bret Yager
West Hawaii Today
byager@westhawaiitoday.com
An engineer with the state
Department of Land and
Natural Resources hopes
that a remake of regulatory
processes at the federal and
state level will allow improvements to move more quickly at
Kawaihae Harbor.
Eric Yuasa, engineering
branch head for the Division of
Boating and Ocean Recreation,
sketched both the progress
and frustrations at the north
and south recreation harbors,
at a meeting of boaters hosted
by State Rep. Cindy Evans,
D-North Kona, Kohala.
The
Army
Corps
of
Engineers regulatory branch
for the Honolulu District has
been reorganized and a much
more responsive staff put
in its place, Yuasa said. The
revamping of the department
followed a 4.5-year delay in the
Corps issuing a permit to build
the dock at the South Small
Boat Harbor. The delay was
in response to the discovery of
coral, Yuasa said Saturday in a
canoe hale at the harbor.

The TMT International
Observatory is sticking with
the same timeline for completing its giant telescope on
Mauna Kea despite protests
that have halted land clearing
at its construction site for nearly six months and a legal challenge before the state Supreme
Court, according to one of its
board members.
Michael Bolte,
an astronomy
professor
at
University
of
California, Santa
Cruz, told the
Tribune-Herald
on Friday that Bolte
he still hopes to have the
Thirty Meter Telescope ready
to begin studying the stars
in 2024. That’s assuming the
court upholds its Conservation
District land use permit and
a resolution is found with the
mostly Native Hawaiian protesters, who view construction

A man calling himself the
king of Hawaii didn’t have
the support of Thirty Meter
Telescope opponents when
he threatened to send armed
“royal marshals” to defend
them, according to a protester.
Edmund K. Silva Jr., who
refers to himself as “His
Majesty,” sent a letter Aug. 23
to Gov. David Ige saying he was
contemplating deployment of
his marshals to Mauna Kea and
Haleakala to defend telescope
protesters from arrest.
“The Royal Marshals are professionals holding the authority
and power issued by me to carry
side arms and other weapons
