Kaʻū News Briefs, Tuesday, December 4, 2018

Mayor Harry Kim thanked the County Council during inauguration ceremonies yesterday. Photo by Nicole Nash
COUNTY COUNCIL MEMBER MAILE DAVID took the oath of office on Monday for the third time to represent District Six, to serve Kaʻū, South Kona, Volcano, and parts of Puna. Witnessed by a large and enthusiastic crowd, the nine member Hawaiʻi County Council was sworn into office during an inauguration ceremony held at the Hilo Civic Auditorium.
     The cavernous Afook-Chinen Civic Auditorium was warm with flowers and greenery, while the Council members wore long leis draped over their formal black attire. The Waiakea High School band dignified the ceremony with resounding music for the processional and the anthems.
     Judge Greg Nakamura administered the oaths and presented council members with their certificates.

     Chairman of the County Council, Aaron Chung, left council members giggling nervously and the audience laughing with glee when he announced that he planned a departure from the standard speech.
     "I want to share some of my thoughts on the individuals who were just inaugurated and who will be guiding the County of Hawaiʻi over the next two years."
     Starting with the freshmen, Chung directed each of the  council members to stand while he talked about them. When it was David's turn to stand, she waved at the crowd. They applauded.
     Chung introduced her again, saying "Maile joined the council at same time as me and I respect her as a council member and as a person.
     "Maile shares many of the same beliefs as her fellow Kona colleagues, Karen and Rebecca, particularly as they relate to the protection of our environment and shoreline and Hawaiian customs. I have an easy time relating to her because she's a local girl through and through."
     "I don't know how many of you in the audience remember when Konawaena had a different school schedule from other public schools on the island," Chung told the audience.
     "That odd schedule was designed to accommodate the coffee-picking season, and as one might infer, the children were in the fields picking coffee, Maile being one of them. Now, I've never picked coffee in my life, but I can only imagine that it's hard work and that's the kind of background that Maile comes from.
     "I like Maile because she has common sense, is easy to talk to, and is reliable. I also have to say that although she has a genuinely calm and pleasant demeanor, she has demonstrated a certain toughness that I admire. To a certain extent I see that in most members of this group. After all, in this line of business, you need to able to make tough decisions," added Chung.
     The Kīlauea eruption was the main concern of Chung's address: "The Kīlauea eruption and Hurricane Lane caused heartbreak for many families. The after effects are still being felt by many. And let's not forget that we have yet to fully assess the impacts of those disasters on our own county budget.

     "Recovery for Puna needs to be our top priority," emphasized Chung. "Whether it means taking a secondary or a primary role to that of the administration, we must do whatever is legally permissible in order to help.
     "Other matters which we need to pay attention to will be the looming effects of global warming by educating ourselves on and taking necessary steps toward addressing matters relating to coastal planning, emergency preparedness, and the development of disaster mitigation measures.
     "Finally, diversifying our one-dimensional revenue stream is a must in order for us to be able to provide the level of service our citizens deserve. Former Mayor Stephen Yamashiro was fond of saying that 'Government cannot be all things to all people.' That wisdom holds true to this very day. We cannot allow ourselves to be distracted from our primary goals.
Aaron Chung, Chairman
of the County Council
     "I've been a council member for many years, some might say too many. During those years, I've had the good fortune of working with some truly talented and committed individuals. But I will say, that in my humble opinion, this group, with is personality makeup, youth to experience ratio, and individual skill-sets, has the potential to be the best I've worked with as a unit. It of course remains to be seen whether these special talents can meld together and bring tangible and positive results to our island. I think it will. But only time will tell," concluded Chung.
     Mayor Harry Kim thanked the Council for all they do.

HŪ HONUA, WHICH PLANS TO BURN EUCALYPTUS FROM KAʻŪ TO MAKE ELECTRICITY AT A POWER PLANT on the coast north of Hilo, responded to state Department of Health accusations about a discharge into the ocean. Last Friday, Department of Health Director Bruce Anderson referred to an unauthorized discharge of industrial wastewater on Nov. 9 from the facility in Pepeʻekeo as "a blatant disrespect of the environmental laws that govern this highly regulated industry."
     Former Hawaiʻi Electric Light Co. President and former county Public Works chief Warren Lee is the new President of Hū Honua. On Friday, he told Pacific Business News, "I take exception to some of the statements attributed to Dr. Anderson, based on what was reported and not having seen the report he is referring to, or the preliminary findings at least. How does he come to these conclusions? It's just disturbing."
     Lee said the spill was an accident. "It wasn't willful. There was an inadvertent discharge, a discharge of boiler water that was in the treatment process. It wasn't ready to be disposed of, and we would have disposed of it through other means." The power plant staff self-reported the incident to DOH officials the same day, Lee told PBN. "I'm just astounded and amazed by the comments made by Dr. Anderson."
     The DOH statement said investigation of the power plant will continue. A report with recommendations for enforcement requirement and penalties will be issued.
     The 30-megawatt facility in Pepeʻekeo, where logs from eucalyptus farms above Pāhala would be transported and burned, is expected to be completed and operational by early 2019, Lee told PBN. If the facility is not operational by Dec. 31, reports PNB, Hū Honua would lose up to $100 million in tax credits.

Rep. Tulsi Gabbard is considering running for the Presidency in 2020.

REP. TULSI GABBARD "DITCHED THE BEACHES OF HAWAIʻI FOR NEW HAMPSHIRE over the weekend, as she considers whether to jump into what is expected to be a crowded race for the Democratic presidential nomination in 2020," reported Roll Call on Monday. Roll Call reported Gabbard traveling with Vermont Sen. Bernie Sanders, for whom she campaigned in 2016. On Saturday, she met with a group of progressive activists in Concord before meeting with the New Hampshire Young Democrats on Sunday morning in Manchester.
     Headed into her fourth term in the Hawaiʻi state House of Representatives in January, Gabbard and about six other House members who may consider running for President "will face unique historical challenges including fundraising hurdles, time constraints due to their House obligation, and less name recognition," than some other higher profile contenders, states the Roll Call article by Griffin Connolley.
     A Civil Beat article by Nick Grube reported Gabbard saying she has no timeline for any official candidacy announcement. Grube asked about her time spent away from Hawaiʻi to put out "presidential feelers." Gabbard responded, "As I have throughout my life in making the different decisions that I've made, I am thinking about how I can best be of service to the people of this country."
     The Roll Call story pointed out that Gabbard practices Hinduism and that she "lamented that some leaders want to divide the nation and stressed that politics should stem from 'love.'" Gabbard said, "Inspired by this love… we can truly have that strength and that power to be able to take on the tough challenges that are before us. This is how we come together as people and draw from love that strength and that courage and that fearlessness that we need to take on those forces and those obstacles that seem insurmountable, that can seem too great to overcome."
     She would be the first Hindu in the Oval Office, Roll Call noted.
