VICTIMS OF THE FIVE-FATALITY CAR CRASH Wednesday on Hwy 11 at Punalu`u Bridge, between Pahala and Punalu`u, have been all identified. Their deaths leave many questions as to what caused the horrific accident – an unfathomable suffering loss to local and visiting families.
      Was it the old and narrow bridge on state Hwy 11 that gives many people pause whenever they cross it - two vehicles at a time? Did the visitor who was driving steer to the right to hug the side of the bridge when he saw the wide truck coming, then over-adjust when the concrete wall of the bridge seemed too close? Did the driver, who was reported to have some heart problems, experience a heart attack or stroke? These are some of the questions circulating in Ka`u.
       No one may ever know the answers, but dead are Richard Taylor, 65, and Trini Evengelista Ballesteros, 56, of Na`alehu. Dead are a grandfather, son, and grandson, leaving two grieving women who lost three generations of men in their family in one horrible accident.
      The visitors were identified yesterday as Donald Ingoglia, a 73-year-old attorney from Sacramento, CA; his son, 39-year-old Philip A. Ingoglia, of Costa Rica; and the nine-year-old grandson, Isidora I. Ingogila, of Costa Rica.
      The grandfather and his wife were regular visitors to the Big Island, and the family was staying in Keauhou at a condominium.
      County Council member Brenda Ford said she will look into the accident and the safety of the bridge and that concerned citizens could contact the state Department of Transportation and their state legislators.
      Police said speed was not a factor in the crash.

Sen. Russell Ruderman

SEN. RUSSELL RUDERMAN announced his program for the 2013 state Legislature yesterday, the last day for bills to be introduced. 

      Proposals help to foster renewable energy, including Senate Bill 368, called the Solar Loan Guarantee Program & Revolving Fund. It would allow homeowners to secure a loan guarantee from the state for loans made for solar energy devices, including photovoltaic and solar water heating. The measure would also make solar investments available to lower- and middle-income households, lowering their energy costs.
      Senate Bill 379, called Virtual Net Metering, would allow renters and property owners to purchase solar electricity at an offsite location and receive credit to their meter and utility bill for the renewable energy produced at the remote location. “This would expand access to solar power and extend this opportunity to those who currently can’t take advantage of it,” says a statement from Ruderman.
      Senate Bill 366, called Utility Interconnection & Grid Saturation Cap, would remove barriers to photovoltaics by requiring the utility – not homeowners – to pay for any interconnection study for 10 kilowatt or smaller systems to hook up to the grid.
      Senate Bill 372, called Biodiesel-Blended Fuel, would require increasing levels of biodiesel in all on-road diesel sold in Hawai`i starting from a B5 blend in 2015 to a B20 blend in 2025. Unlike ethanol, said Ruderman, “biodiesel is being produced in Hawai`i, and these blended rates do not harm engines.”
      Senate Bill 371 would repeal Act 97 to “return control to the county and community and strengthen home rule,” Ruderman writes. He said that Act 97 passed in 2012 “as a way to fast-track geothermal development in Hawai`i. It stripped the counties of land use control and opened all lands in the state to geothermal development.”
     Senate Bill 375, called a Fracking Prohibition, would ban any hydraulic fracturing (fracking) in Hawai`i “until proper oversight and permitting are established. Fracking can inject harmful chemicals into the earth and has been linked to earthquakes, groundwater pollution, and other impacts,” said Ruderman.

and Puna. Image from The Kohala Center

ADVANCEMENT OF AGRICULTURE in Puna and Ka`u would be the result of state Senate Bill 380, proposed by Sen. Russell Ruderman. It calls for a learning center assessment by the College of Agriculture, Forestry and Natural Resource Management at University of Hawai`i-Hilo for a higher-education learning center in Puna. “This effort will advance development of agriculture production and processing businesses in the district and support entrepreneurs and new job creation in Puna and Ka`u,” he said. 

SENATE BILL 363 is called the Family Farm Income Tax Break. It would exempt the first $50,000 in annual income to individuals earning their primary income from farming.

SENATE BILLS 373 AND 367 involve Direct Farm to Consumer Food Sales and Home-based Food Production and Sales. They would exempt producers of unprocessed Hawai`i-grown agricultural products from state Department of Health rules when selling directly to the consumer and allow home-based baking businesses to sell food items directly to consumers provided certain conditions are met.

TAXING GMO SEED SALES is another Ruderman initiative. SB 365 would eliminate the exemption to the state’s General Excise Tax currently extended to GMO seed export crops grown in Hawai`i on an estimated $225 million in gross income per year.

SENATE BILL 370 attempts to gain more protection of agriculture products against invasive species. It would require a permit from the state Department of Agriculture to import, introduce or develop any new species of genetically engineered organism. The department would conduct a public hearing to determine whether to grant a permit.

BANNING ALL AQUARIUM FISH COLLECTING is another proposal from Ruderman. SB 374 would prohibit the taking of reef fish for sale for aquarium purposes.

A bill proposed by Sen. Russell Ruderman would require
both chambers of the Legislature to provide opportunities
for video testimony from neighbor islands.

NEIGHBOR ISLAND VIDEO TESTIMONY, proposed by Ruderman as SB369, would require both chambers of the Legislature to implement rules to permit residents to present testimony through audiovisual technology. 

      Ruderman said he encourages everyone to get involved by following legislation and providing testimony on these and other bills by registering at www.capitol.hawaii.gov/login/register.aspx; by subscribing to hearing notices and by providing testimony. He said the public can contact him by phone, email or mail to voice concerns about District 2, Puna through Ka`u, and also about state-wide legislation.
      His email is senruderman@capitol.hawaii.gov. His phone numbers are 808-974-4000, ext. 6-6890 and 808-586-6890. His mailing address is State Capitol, 415 S. Beretania St., Room 217, Honolulu, HI 96813.

THE NATIONAL PARK SERVICE today released its Final Plan and Environmental Impact Statement for Protecting and Restoring Native Ecosystems by Managing Non-Native Ungulates in Hawai`i Volcanoes National Park. 

      The plan provides a park-wide framework to systematically guide non-native ungulate management activities in a manner that supports long-term ecosystem protection, supports natural ecosystem recovery and provides desirable conditions for active ecosystem restoration. It also supports protection and preservation of cultural resources.

native ungulates with complete boundary fencing of
Kahuku and `Ola`a rainforest. Image from NPS

      The plan says the preferred alternative to manage ungulates includes a progression of management phases, monitoring and considerations for the use of management tools; a population objective of zero non-native ungulates, or as low as practicable, in managed areas; complete boundary fencing for Kahuku and `Ola`a rainforest; and potential use of localized internal fencing to assist in the control of non-native ungulates. “Control techniques would be primarily lethal, but non-lethal techniques could also be considered,” the report says. Volunteer programs would continue, but modifications would be required for lethal removal programs to meet current NPS practices.
      The plan/EIS is available online at http://park-planning.nps.gov/havo_ecosystem_feis. After a required 30-day waiting period following release of the plan/EIS, the National Park Service will finalize its choice of alternative in a record of decision.

TRAGEDY TOOK THE LIVES of two Ka`u residents at 10:15 a.m. yesterday, when a car with three tourists apparently crossed the center line on state Hwy 11 and slammed head-on into a pickup truck killing Trini Evangelista Ballesteros, who grew up in Pahala, and her companion Richard Taylor, both of Na`alehu. The local victims died instantly as the crash obliterated the truck, flipping it onto its side as it burst into flames. The visiting family suffered an equal loss with grandfather and son killed in the accident and the seven-year old grandson dying after being airlifted from Ka`u Hospital to Kona Community Hospital. 

      The accident took place near the spot on Mamalahoa Hwy, south of Pahala, where the highway narrows and crosses an old bridge near milepost 54. Taylor, 65, owned the F-350 Ford pickup and was headed toward Hilo with Ballesteros, 56. The 2012 Nissan Altima, headed toward Kona, apparently was a rental car for a family who had stayed overnight on the east side of the island to take a lava boat tour and was returning to a Keauhou condo in the morning.
      The accident shut down Hwy 11 for nearly six hours, and residents and visitors were sent up the old cane haul road between Pahala and Na`alehu as the detour. According to police, a witness driving behind the visitors’ Nissan said the car crossed the center line. Police also said that speeding appeared to be a factor, but were also looking at the possibility of the rental car driver having a heart attack or stroke that led to the accident.
      Hawai`i Island has the smallest population per square mile but the highest per capita in traffic fatalities in the state. Without state sheriffs or state highway patrol watching state roads, and only the federal rangers patrolling the stretch of Hwy 11 inside Hawai`i Volcanoes National Park, it remains difficult for the two county police officers on duty in vast Ka`u to enforce traffic safety everywhere. The long drive by those visitors who drive back and forth from Kona and the Kohala Coast resorts to Volcano can be very tiring. In another recent tragic accident near Pahala, a Japanese visitor fell asleep, his rental van veering off Hwy 11 into the lava and killing his infant son.

WOMEN ALLOWED TO SERVE IN ACTIVE COMBAT became official U.S. military policy yesterday. Ka`u’s U.S. Senator Mazie Hirono and U.S. House of Representatives member Tulsi Gabbard applauded the change announced by Defense Secretary Leon Panetta. 

      Hirono, a member of the Senate Committee on Armed Services, called it “a great step toward equality. These restrictions that block women from serving in active combat roles make no sense in today’s modern military. All Americans deserve the opportunity to defend our nation regardless of gender, and I know that the women who currently serve in the military think they should be treated the same as any other service member. Women serving in combat roles will strengthen our national security, and as a member of the Armed Services Committee, I will work closely with military and administration officials to see this change through.”
      Gabbard, who remains a Military Police Captain in the Hawai`i National Guard, said, “As a twice-deployed combat veteran, I have a firsthand appreciation and understanding of the contributions women in uniform make every single day, all around the world. I have had the honor of serving with incredibly talented female soldiers who, if given the opportunity, would serve as great assets in our ground combat units. It is crucial that we shed light on the great value and opportunities that these women bring. She noted that “female service members have contributed on the battlefield as far back as the Civil War, when some disguised themselves as men just to have the opportunity to serve their nation. This decision by the Department of Defense is an overdue, yet welcome, change.”
      Gabbard is one of the first female combat veterans ever to serve in the U.S Congress. In 2004, she voluntarily deployed to Iraq with the 29th Brigade Combat Team, serving two tours in the Middle East. She was awarded the Meritorious Service Medal during Operation Iraqi Freedom, was the first female Distinguished Honor Graduate at Fort McClellan’s Officer Candidate School, and was the first woman to ever receive an award of appreciation from the Kuwaiti military on her second overseas tour.

Abel Simeona Lui plans to attend a community meeting about Kawa
next week.

ABEL SIMEONA LUI, who lived at Kawa for about 20 years, is telling the media that he plans to participate in a community meeting next week about the future of 784 of acres of coastal land next to Ka`u's best surfing beach and several estuaries with endangered wildlife. Lui, who claimed ownership of the land, lived on the property in a solar-powered house for years when it was owned by several different landowners who attempted to evict him to no avail. Lui cited Hawaiian sovereignty and his family lineage, but courts turned away his claims and the County of Hawai`i, which has purchased the land for preservation of resources and to become a park, evicted him last October. Lui recently returned and flew his flag and posted signs about his cause. In this morning’s West Hawai`i Today, Nancy Cook Lauer reported that Lui said he will fly his flag whenever he is visiting Kawa and plans to attend the meeting to which, he claims, he wasn’t invited . 

      “Now that they removed Abel from the land, now they gotta put somebody on the land and they gotta pay them, when Abel do it for free,” Lui told West Hawai`i Today. “They come and say they own Kawa and they locked it down and now they don’t know what to do with it.”
      According to the news story, the county has been meeting with Hawaiian families with ties to Kawa to come up with a plan to manage the property. Both the county and the state Department of Land & Natural Resources are scheduled to have representatives on hand for more community input at the public session Wednesday at 5 p.m. at Na`alehu Community Center. See more at www.westhawaiitoday.com.

HAWAIIAN VOLCANO OBSERVATORY brought the first of what could be several programs down the mountain yesterday evening. Approximately 40 people attended geologist Tim Orr’s presentation of The 30th Anniversary of Kilauea Volcano’s East Rift Eruption at Pahala Plantation House. Orr reviewed the history of the eruption from the fissure that occurred on Jan. 3, 1983 to current ocean entries with dramatic photos and videos. Several attendees gave suggestions for future programs. Another is scheduled for Wednesday, Feb. 6 at Pahala Community Center, when geochemists Jeff Sutton and Tamar Elias discuss volcanic gases and their environmental impact.

Ka`u public schools' calendar is a feature in The Directory 2013.

HAWAI`I POLICE DEPARTMENT holds a community meeting tomorrow from noon to 2 p.m. at Cooper Center on Wright Road in Volcano Village. To help police commanders focus on specific community concerns, participation is limited to persons who live or work in the immediate area.

IN HIS THIRD STATE OF THE STATE ADDRESS, Gov. Neil Abercrombie yesterday outlined plans to maximize the state’s sound fiscal footing and improving economy by focusing on business innovation, food and energy security and early childhood education. 

      “Two years ago, our administration had just taken office amidst an extremely difficult fiscal and economic outlook,” Gov. Abercrombie said. “But as a result of our collaborative efforts, shared sacrifice and judicious administrative action, we have made clear progress and are again looking at a healthy positive balance. Now, we must move from the status quo and provide for future generations of Hawai`i.”

      Abercrombie has asked Lt. Gov. Shan Tsutsui to take a lead role in expediting investment in the state’s economy via construction, repair and maintenance projects and public/private ventures. “These long-range investments, including capital improvement projects, have already helped to stimulate the island economy and generate local jobs while improving public infrastructure and facilities,” Abercrombie said.
      The governor proposed the HI Growth Initiative, an investment program focused on building a “vibrant environment for innovation that supports entrepreneurial high-growth businesses and creates high-wage jobs.” The program would engage with the private sector to startup and grow creative and innovative companies.
      Abercrombie also proposed aggressive promotion of state agency purchases of Hawai`i agricultural products to provide a consistent and regular market for goods. He said the administration will also work to increase access to capital for local farmers and ranchers by expanding the state Department of Agriculture’s loan programs.
      The governor also highlighted the potential of minimum wage earners to provide an immediate infusion of dollars into the economy, announcing that he will propose a bill to increase the minimum wage by $1.50 to $8.75 beginning in January 2014. “Everyone is worthy of their labor,” he said. “Industry and corporations do not lack for support in these halls. Neither should those who work the hardest for the least return.”
       In the area of energy, the governor proposed embarking on a clear path toward increased use of liquefied natural gas, as well as the establishment of the Hawai`i Refinery Task Force to serve as a collaboration of government energy industries and utilities to immediately work on short-term and long-term findings and recommendations.

Lt. Gov. Shan Tsutsui, seated at right, has a lead role in expediting
investment in the state's economy.

      “LNG will reduce energy costs and reduce our carbon footprint because the resource is abundant, available, and the technology exists for us to use it now,” he said. “Our state, our residents, our constituents, our businesses and communities need relief. To do nothing puts everyone in the state at risk.”
      Additionally, a new financing mechanism administered by the Department of Business, Economic Development and Tourism, would be developed to help residents, businesses and organizations take advantage of energy options.
      To maintain the state’s current fiscal stability and outlook, the governor proposed recapitalizing the Hawai`i Hurricane Relief Fund and Rainy Day Fund and, as detailed in the administration’s 2013-2015 fiscal biennium budget presented last month, proposed addressing long-term liabilities by budgeting $100 million starting next fiscal year, with plans to continue to pursue payment in the coming years.
      The governor reaffirmed his commitment to giving keiki opportunity for school success and a strong early childhood education program. “Leaving our keiki unprepared for elementary school puts them at a crippling disadvantage in terms of being able to meet the demands the future will make on them,” he said. The administration has included $32.5 million for the Executive Office on Early Learning in the biennium budget for a school readiness program.
      The governor also proposed addressing Hawai`i’s aging population. “As we look to the future, we must never forget where we came from and to whom we owe our gratitude,” he added, announcing that he will be asking the Legislature to increase the Kupuna Care budget by $4.2 million and make it permanent.
      “Those who came before us sacrificed to help build our state and create the foundation upon which we stand today,” he said. “By being part of the permanent base for the Department of Health and the Executive Office on Aging, we can allow programs to properly plan and rely upon a steady stream of funding. This should be seen as an investment that will pay immediate dividends as the aging population of Hawai`i both grows in numbers and lives longer.”

Rep. Tulsi Gabbard

DEMOCRATIC NATIONAL COMMITTEE has elected Hawai`i Rep. Tulsi Gabbard to be vice chair of the party for the next four years. “I see this as a great opportunity to let Hawai`i’s voice be heard on a national platform and to play a leadership role in bringing people together in communities all across the country, as we work toward our common goal of serving the people and building a brighter future for our country,” said Gabbard.
      “Congresswoman Gabbard’s story is an inspiration, and her dedication to public service showcases the best of our party’s values,” said DNC chair Debbie Wasserman Schultz. “I look forward to serving with her both in the House of Representatives and as an officer at the DNC.”

HWY 11 IS CLOSED IN BOTH DIRECTIONS due to a head-on collision near mile-marker 54. Traffic Division Sgt. Christopher Gali reports that a car crossed the center line, hit a pickup truck, and the truck caught on fire. Four people died at the scene, and a young boy was airlifted to Kona Community Hospital. The highway is expected to be closed for several hours during investigation.

THE 30TH ANNIVERSARY of Kilauea Volcano’s East Rift Eruption is the topic at Pahala Plantation House this evening. Showing photos and videos of the ongoing eruption, Tim Orr, USGS Hawaiian Volcano Observatory geologist, reviews highlights from the past 30 years and talks about recent developments on Kilauea’s East Rift Zone. During its first three years, spectacular lava fountains spewed episodically from Pu`u `O`o vent. Since then, nearly continuous lava effusion has built a vast plain of pahoehoe lava that stretches from the volcano’s rift zone to the sea. Although the eruption has been relatively quiet during the past year, with mostly steady, but unusually weak activity, it has produced some dramatic lava flows in past years. 

      The program is part of Volcano Awareness Month and begins at 6:30 p.m. Depending on interest, more programs may come to Ka`u in the future. Call 928-9811 for more information.
