THE PROPOSED NĀʻĀLEHU WASTEWATER TREATMENT PLANT drew a wide range of opinions this week when the engineer and community outreach person met with residents and held a public meeting. They explained that the proposed site has moved a third time, from the Makahiki Grounds where archaeological remains were discovered, and from land near the Nāʻālehu School, where teachers and surrounding residents objected to the location.
     The new site is in the mauka end of  Kahlilipalinui ahupuaʻa, 2.5 miles from the shoreline. It would be located within more than 2,000 acres in Kahilipalinui and Kahilipaliʻikii being purchased for conservation through the county Two Per Cent Land Fund and state Legacy Land Fund. Both county and state recently gave permission to remove the 30 acres from the conservation zone, in order to use it for the treatment facility, which would protect the Waikapuna shoreline from untreated sewage coming from the town. It would become the property of the county. The rest of the land would be owned and stewarded  by the Ala Kahakai Trail Association.

     In terms of economic development, a new sewer line running along Hwy 11 would allow businesses like Punaluʻu Bake Shop, Hana Hou Restaurant, Nāʻālehu Shopping Center, and Shaka's Restaurant, along with Nāʻālehu School and Bay Clinic, to grow without digging up gardens and parking areas for additional septic system capacity.
     During Tuesday night's meeting, some people said they worried that the cost of the treatment plant, estimated at some $40 million, could be too much of a financial burden on residents of the town and give developers the opportunity to bring in too much growth at the expense of local people. Representatives of the county explained that the cost of the new sewer system is borne by the entire county, not the Nāʻālehu community alone. Loans pay for it and the county pays off the loans over time, keeping the sewage fees the same islandwide.
     While the sewage treatment plant would have the capacity to grow, growth of the town would be determined in the future with input from the townspeople, said county representatives. The obligation of the county is to retire  the town's large capacity gang cesspools which are illegal under federal law but serve 163 houses in the old sugar camp in Nāʻālehu. The EPA has promised fines of more than $30,000 per day per large capacity cesspool, should the county be unable to shut them down and provide a legal alternative in the near future.

     Several residents said they worried that the plan calls for a sewage outfall into the ocean. Would Waikapuna be affected? Engineer Michelle Sorensen explained that the 30-acre facility would be far from the ocean. Effluent treated without chemicals by oxygen and microbes would be absorbed by the soil in groves of trees.
     The treatment facility would help protect the ocean, groundwater and health from sewage that is now going into the ground untreated, noted the engineer. She showed on maps that the treatment plant would be miles from the coast and that no ocean outfall is in the planning.

GAZE INTO HALEMAʻUMAʻU with a new, temporary monitoring camera, perched on the west rim of Kīlauea caldera. Operated by U.S. Geological Survey Hawaiian Volcano Observatory, the cam looks east, into recently enlarged Halema‘uma‘u crater. See it at volcanoes.usgs.gov/observatories/hvo/webcam.html?webcam=K3cam.

     Reports volcanoes.usgs.gov/observatories/hvo, "Following the dramatic events of 2018, Kīlauea is now relatively quiet. But it remains an active volcano that will erupt again, so it is wise to stay informed about its status, along with other active Hawaiian volcanoes.

     "However, the deepest part of crater is not visible from this vantage point. Because this is a temporary installation, the view angle can slightly change whenever the camera is serviced."     

     Halemaʻumaʻu is approximately 1 km, or 0.6 miles, wide. USGS says the depth of the crater in the visible image from the rim is several hundred meters. HVO hopes to install a permanent webcam at this site in the coming months.

     A limited-participant field trip to the recent burn area of Hawai‘i Volcanoes National Park is offered on Tuesday, March 26; $40, lunch provided.

     Says the release about the symposium: "The dryland forests of Hawai‘i are fragile habitats that are home to many of the rarest plants in the world. Dryland forests were once considered to be the most diverse forest ecosystems in the Hawaiian Islands but have suffered decades of deforestation and degradation. Only remnant patches of these habitats of highly diverse communities of plants and animals remain today. The Dryland Forest Symposium provides a forum to discuss recent developments in dryland forest conservation and restoration, and an opportunity to interact with others interested in dryland forest ecology.

     "At this year's symposium we are honored to have Hālau ‘Ōhi‘a open the event with a kīpaepae to help establish and strengthen our specific intentions as we engage in this symposium meant to help conserve a resource with profound biocultural significance. Keynote speaker Dr. Jennifer Powers from the University of Minnesota has been an avid researcher of tropical dry forests in Costa Rica since 1994. She investigates the relationships among ecological processes, the patterns they generate, and the effects of anthropogenic environmental changes across a range of spatial and temporal scales.

CHILD CARE FOR WORKING FAMILIES was reintroduced to the U.S. Senate this week by Mazie Hirono and 32 colleagues. Parents and child care educators and advocates support the bill, which "seeks to expand access to high-quality, affordable early childhood programs for working and middle class families" states a release from Hirono's office. 98 U.S. House representatives introduced a companion bill.

     Said Hirono, "Child care is foundational for future academic and social success, yet remains unaffordable and unavailable for many working and middle class families in Hawaiʻi – who face the highest cost of living in the country. At nearly $700 per month, child care is the second highest household expense after housing for most families – surpassing the amount they spend on food, utilities, transportation, or health care. The Child Care for Working Families Act represents a long-term investment in our keiki to ensure that every family can access high-quality, affordable early learning and child care programs."

     Bobby Scott, Chairman of the Committee on Education and Labor, said, "The high cost of child care is a heavy burden that falls on children, families, and our economy as a whole. Children are too often denied the foundation they need to reach their potential, parents are forced to choose between child care and work, and these challenges have both short- and long-term consequences for our economy. The Child Care for Working Families Act addresses this national crisis by ensuring that all families can afford to send their children to a quality child care program that will support them through a critical stage in their lives."

     For families in Hawaiʻi, says Hirono, child care expenses have increased, on average, by 24 percent over the last decade, with many families expected to pay over $8,000 for child care every year. According to a 2018 report by Child Care Aware of America, nearly half of Hawaiʻi's children under the age of six lack access to child care, resulting in a shortage of 30,000 certified child care slots in the state. The Child Care for Working Families Act represents a long-term investment in child care to ensure that no family making 150 percent of state median income or less has to contribute more than seven percent of their income toward child care, regardless of the number of children they have.

    The bill also increases funding for Head Start in order to promote universal access to high-quality preschool programs, and improves compensation and training for child care workers to give teachers and caregivers full and fair compensation, as well as the support they need to ensure that the children they are caring for can thrive.

     According to the Center for American Progress, investing in the Child Care for Working Families Act would generate 2.3 million new jobs as a result of parents joining the workforce, as well as the expansion of child care and early education sector jobs. As a result of an investment in child care and early education, the report stated it expects the Child Care for Working Families Act would lift one million families out of poverty, which would substantially improve a child’s social and academic development.

     Hirono previously co-introduced the Child Care for Working Families Act in September 2017. In 2018, Senator Hirono advocated for and helped secure funding for the Preschool Development Grant program, Head Start, Early Head Start, the Preschool Development Grant Birth Through Five program, and the Child Care and Development Block Grant.
