THE COUNTY COMMUNITY DEVELOPMENT PLAN TEAM sent out a reminder Friday regarding an online survey of the public due on Sunday Sept. 18. The message says, "As you may know, and in connection to the General Plan Comprehensive Review, our team is exploring improvements to our community engagement program. It is our hope to continue learning from our past experiences as we move forward by clarifying the role and guidelines for both staff and Action Committees. Our goal is to better align our process to create a meaningful and engaging way for community to partner with the County and implement the CDPs."

The Kaʻū Community Development Pan is available to read at https://docs.google.com/forms/d/e/1FAIpQLSfzs8IWvzRasSPfTh0yonvFZ3IiHdOIB3FaLWyzIPK8kgWSYw/viewform

The Kaʻū Community Development Plan Action Committee is comprised of Ka'u citizens tasked with helping move forward the Kaʻū CDP, in partnership with the Hawai'i County Planing Department and other community stakeholders. However, all public meetings sponsored by the county with the Action Committee were recently canceled by the county, siting staff changes and an effort to better plan community engagement.

Kaʻū's Action Committee members are: Leina'ala Enos, Babette Morrow, Catherine Williams, Kaohinani Mokuali'i, Pernell Hanoa, Jason Masters, Kaweni Ibarra and Jessie Ke. See story at http://kaunewsbriefs.blogspot.com/2022_08_22_archive.html

According to the county Planning Department's CDP team, "results of this survey will directly inform our direction moving forward; therefore, your participation is extremely important. It should only take about 10 minutes of your time." It asks that Kaʻū citizens "Please share this link with your network. Please be on the lookout for more information and opportunities for you to contribute to this effort as we seek to improve our community engagement practices. Mahalo for your participation!" With questions, contact cdp@hawaiicounty.gov.

A HAWAI'I COUNTY COMPREHENSIVE ECONOMIC DEVELOPMENT STRATEGY report was recently published, and the state and county are looking for public input by the end of September.

Access the documents on the website https://planning.hawaii.gov/spb/ceds/. Send comments via email to hi.ceds2022@gmail.com.

Hawai'i Island Economic Development Board, Inc. is under contract with the state Office of Planning & Sustainable Development and the U.S. Department of Commerce's Economic Development Administration to develop the plan.

The Vision section of the plan states: "Building upon Hawai'i County's healthy pre-pandemic economy, we strive to develop a more vibrant, sustainable economy; improve resilience to systemic shocks; identify and foster opportunities of shared prosperity for Hawai'i Countys diverse Communities."

The study identifies common themes and trends: Affordability, Cost of Living, Poverty; Diversification; Education & Workforce Development; Housing, Infrastructure; Innovation & Technology; Labor Force Shortages; and Water.

The study says the authors recognize "Hawai'i's geographic isolation supports an economy based on 'local' industry sectors and human capital." It identified ten key sectors and industry clusters: Agriculture & Food Systems; Astronomy & Technology; Creative Arts & Industries; Education, Knowledge Creation & Workforce Development; Energy & Resiliency; Environment & Climate Change; Government; Health & Wellness; and Hospitality & Tourism.

The 110-page report has numerous charts regarding affordability in Hawai'i County, as well as a list of the types of jobs and average earnings.

Its also discusses the future of such industries as agriculture, saying its threats include: farmers and ranchers aging out of the industry; cost of living and doing business; housing; invasive species and pests; ideology and misinformation and disinformation regarding science data; over regulation; labor shortages; shipping and transportation challenges; climate change; cost of land and more.

There is also a section on economic impact of the telescopes on Maunakea.

HELPING HAWAI'I SMALL BUSINESSES EXPAND INTO OVERSEAS MARKETS is the aim of $500 K approved by congress. According to Sen. Mazie Hirono, a member of the Senate Small Business Committee, over the past decade, the funding has provided more than $5 million for Hawai'i, supporting creation of more than 900 jobs. The half million dollars will go to the state Department of Business & Economic Development through the U.S. Small Business Administration's State Trade Expansion Program.

Hirono recently hosted national SBA Administrator Isabella Guzman to visit small businesses in Hawai'i and organizations that support them. She said over the last decade the program enabled Hawai'i small businesses generate over $80 million in new exports and hundreds of jobs.

She noted that only 1 percent of America's more than 30 million small businesses export their products and services because they often lack the relationships and expertise necessary to secure business in the global marketplace.
Congress created STEP in 2010 to increase opportunities for small businesses to engage in international trade. The program awards grants to state economic development agencies so they can help small businesses attend international trade shows and connect with customers in foreign markets. The grants also allow economic development agencies to provide counseling and training to help small businesses understand the rules of international trade.

HAWAI'I COUNTY PROSECUTING ATTORNEY KELDEN WALTJEN DISAGREES WITH A STATE SUPRME COURT DECISION issued this week and is taking his concerns to the governor and to the Hawai'i Legislature. Waltjen issued this statement on Thursday:

“Today, the Hawai‘i Supreme Court released its opinion in State v. Richard Obrero, which determined

Prosecuting Attorney Kelden
Waltjen disagrees with a Hawai'i
Supreme Court decision.

that Hawai'i Revised Statutes Section 801-1 precludes the State from initiating felony prosecutions by way of complaint and preliminary hearing. Our Office is extremely disappointed in the Court’s decision in Obrero.

"This decision contradicts established criminal law practices and procedures which have been in place in Hawai‘i for the past forty years. It also disregards the intent of voters, interferes with law enforcement, and jeopardizes public safety. The decision impedes the commencement of criminal proceedings in arrest and charge situations for serious cases, including but not limited to murder, kidnapping, robbery, domestic violence, drug trafficking, and sexual assault.

"As a result, offenders may be released until prosecutors are able to proceed via information charging or schedule a grand jury presentation. To make matters worse, not all criminal charges are eligible to be initiated via information charging and opportunities for grand jury presentation are limited.

"Here on Hawai‘i Island, we are only afforded grand jury opportunities three times a month—twice per

month in Hilo and once per month in Kona. Our Office agrees with the dissenting opinion of Chief Justice Rectenwald, which provides in relevant part that the ‘fact remains that the Majority today reaches a result that neither the legislature nor the electorate ever intended.’ I have reached out to our Hawai‘i State lawmakers and the Governor for their assistance to expedite the amendment of Section 801-1 to limit the adverse effects of Obrero. This decision will not deter our Office from seeking justice for victims and working toward making Hawai‘i Island a safer place.”

KA'Ū TROJANS STOOD UP TO HILO HIGH IN GIRLS
VOLLEYBALL Friday in home games. Coach Josh Ortega noted that Kaʻū was responsible for recovering the ball in a series of "incredible digs." Principal Sharon Beck said she was impressed that the JV and Varsity teams never gave up and noted that Hilo, a Division 1 team, probably didn't expect the Ka'u Division 2 team to play so amazingly well. In the end, Trojans JV's lost. Varsity lost to Hilo 16-25, 17-25 and 19 25, but Trojans remain undefeated in Division 1 play.

The games were well attended at Kaʻū District gym, with families driving the Hilo players out to Pahala for the event.

For Football, Kaʻū travels to Kohala this Saturday, with start time at 1 p.m.

In Cross Country, Kaʻū goes to Kamehameha on Saturday for an islandwide track event that begins at 9 a.m.

For Bowling, Kaʻū travels to Kona bowl this Saturday for an all schools event at 9:05 a.m.

Riflery competition this Saturday sees Kaʻū traveling to Kamehameha School in Kea'au for an all island event beginning at 10 a.m.

The Perched Pond At Fissure 22 is one of the 30 artworks by Dominic Tidmarsh to be shown at
Volcano Art Gallery from Sept. 24 through Nov 6. The show is called From Pele to Poli'ahu:
the Kuleana of Change. See more below.

THE DEATH OF QUEEN ELIZABETH II, BRITAIN'S LONGEST REIGNING MONARCH, on Thursday drew an order from Gov. David Ige and Pres. Joe Biden to fly state and U.S. flags at half staff.

Ige said, "The State of Hawaiʻi joins the nation and the rest of the world in mourning the loss of Queen Elizabeth II. Many years ago, Hawaiʻi hosted the Queen at Washington Place. Her graciousness and her leadership will always be remembered." The governor pointed to the Pres. Joe Biden's proclamation, which is posted here.

Queen Elizabeth visited Hawai'i twice during her 96 years, once in 1963 on her way home from Fiji,
when she met with Gov John Burns. The second trip was in 1975 when she met with Gov. George Ariyoshi.
Hawaiian royalty also visited Britain over the centuries, including King Kamehameha II and Queen Kamamalu in 1824. In 1887, Queen Kapiolani and Queen-to-be Lili'uokalani attended the Golden Jubilee hosted by Queen Victoria in London. This year in Britain, Queen Elizabeth's Platinum Jubilee honored her 70 years on the throne. A companion, free public Jubilee event was held in Honolulu at Iolani Palace on June 3 to "remember the close relationships that were formed in the 19th century between the Hawaiian monarchs and the British royals," said the message from Iolani Palace.

After the death of Queen Elizabeth II, her son Prince Charles ascended to the throne. His reign, as King Charles III, though largely ceremonial, includes oversight of Great Britain and the United Kingdom Overseas Territories across the planet. They are: Anguilla, Bermuda, British Virgin Islands, Cayman Islands, Falkland Islands, Gibraltar, Monserrat, Pitcairn, British Indian Ocean Territory, St. Helena, Ascension & Tristan da Cunha, Turks & Caicos Islands, as well as the uninhabited British Antarctic Territories South George & the South Sandwich Islands.

Australia, Canada and New Zealand are independent countries but Queen Elizabeth and now King Charles are recognized as their royal leaders. Other independent countries that recognize the King of England are: Antigua and Barbuda, The Bahamas, Belize, Grenada, Jamaica, Papua New Guinea, Saint Lucia, Solomon Islands, St Kitts & Nevis, and St Vincent & the Grenadines.

Closer to his home, Charles is recognized as King of the independent Channel Islands.

FROM PELE TO POLI'AHU: THE KULEANA OF CHANGE is the new exhibition at Volcano Art Center Gallery in Hawai'i Volcanoes National Park, from Sept. 24 to Nov. 6. The exhibit presents approximately 30 new original artworks by Waimea-based artist Dominic Tidmarsh. While the exhibit is free, park entrance fees apply.
The works of art are inspired by the life-changing experiences of living through the eruption of Kilauea in 2018, and the artist's subsequent relocation to Waimea. Tidmarsh compares and contrasts the lands of Pele and Poli'ahu and presents the work as an "expression of the responsibility we all bear to embrace the inevitability of change in our lives," says a VAC statement. As an expression of this Kuleana, Tidmarsh chose to work extensively in media that he had never used before and to explore and develop new methods of working.
The main body of work consists of a series of landscape paintings intricately rendered in soft pastels, a medium not traditionally associated with either precision or detail. In addition, a series of miniatures of Mauna Kea executed in colored pencil stand in vivid contrast to dramatic large-scale watercolor paintings inspired by the eruption of 2018.
Tidmarsh was born in 1964 in Trinidad, West Indies. He was educated in the United Kingdom and also lived in Indonesia before moving to the United States in 1981. In 1982 he attended the Maine Photographic Workshops followed by the Corcoran School of Art in Washington, DC where he earned a BFA in Photography in 1988. Tidmarsh moved to Hawai'i Island in 1996. A self-taught painter, he has participated in numerous solo and group shows in Hawai'i. Recent awards include two Purchase Recognition Awards from the Hawai'i State Foundation on Culture and the Arts and back-to-back Juror's Choice Awards in the Hawai'i Nei 2015 and 2016 art contests. His 3D topographic work can also be seen at the Hawai'i Volcanoes National Park visitor center.
Known for its rich sense of color and meticulous attention to detail, Tidmarsh's work reflects an interdisciplinary approach to creating art. Inspired above all by the natural landscapes of Hawai'i, he also draws inspiration from a variety of other fields such as Volcanology, Astronomy, Archaeo-Astronomy and Ornithology. "Through the incredible amount of detail characteristic of Tidmarsh's work paired with the splendid luminosity of his new medium, Dominic alludes to the the richness of texture and light which only the vast landscapes of Hawai'i Island offer. This collection of works is not to be missed," states Gallery Director Emily C. Weiss.
Volcano Art Center is a 501(c) 3 nonprofit organization created in 1974 whose mission is to promote, develop and perpetuate the artistic, cultural and environmental heritage of Hawaiʻi through arts and education. The exhibit is sponsored by the Hawai'i State Foundation on Culture and the Arts. Visit www.volcanoartcenter.org for more information, or contact Weiss at gallery@volcanoartcenter.org.

AN M4.2 QUAKE rocked Pāhala like a boat in the ocean Thursday morning at 2:04 a.m. USGS reported the location as six miles (9 km) ENE of Pāhala at a depth of 21 mi (33 km) below sea level. The earthquake had no apparent impact on either Mauna Loa or Kīlauea volcanoes.

"This earthquake is part of the seismic swarm under the Pāhala area, which has been going on since 2019. Earthquakes in this region have been observed at least as far back as the 1960s," said the USGS statement. USGS Hawaiian Volcano Observatory continues to monitor Hawaiian volcanoes for any changes.

KA'Ū TROJANS GIRLS VOLLEYBALL JV beat St Joseph's Thursday night at home, in five sets. Trojans lost the first set 18-25 but came back to take the second and third, 25-13 and 25-18. St Joe's returned with a 16-25 win in the fourth. The Trojans put away their opponents with a fifth set at 15-9. Volleyball returns at home again Friday at 5 p.m. in Kaʻū District Gym with JV first, Varsity play to follow against Hilo High Vikings.

POLICE ARRESTED TWENTY-SIX MOTORISTS during the week of Aug. 29 through Sept. 4 for driving under the influence of an intoxicant. Six of the drivers were involved in a traffic accident. Four of the drivers were under the age of 21.
So far this year, there have been 685 DUI arrests compared with 738 during the same period last year.

This is a decrease of 7.2 percent.
There have been 557 major accidents so far this year compared with 543 during the same period last year. This is an increase of 2.6 percent.
To date, there were 24 fatal crashes (one fatal crash reclassified on 05/30/22 due to a medical condition) resulting in 26 fatalities (one of which had multiple deaths, and one reclassified due to a medical condition), compared with 16 fatal crashes, resulting in 16 fatalities for the same time last year. This represents an increase of 50 percent for fatal crashes, and 62.5 percent for fatalities.
Police promise that DUI roadblocks and patrols will continue island wide.

PEDRO ENITAN, 91 YEARS OF AGE, RECEIVED AN AMERICAN LEGION HONORS AWARD on Wednesday from Commander of American Legion Post 3, Retired U.S. Air Force Lt. Col. Harvey Motomura. He led the ceremony at Pahala Holy Rosary Church to commemorate Enitan's 60 years of service in the American Legion.
Enitan, who grew up and lives in Pāhala and is known for his shoreline fishing, served in the Korean War. He was eldest in a family of four sisters and a brother. He left school as a junior to help support his

family. After the Korean War broke out, in 1951 he enlisted in the U.S. Army and served with the 7th Army in Munich, Germany and was trained in dental technology. After the military, he worked for a contractor at Pacific Proving Grounds in Micronesia.

Upon his permanent return to Pāhala, Enitan "joined the American Legion Kaʻū-Pahala Post 7 to ensure that the liberties our country so deeply values are protected," said Motomura. He noted that Enitan's membership in American Legion "was instrumental in transforming the 'police action' classification in Korea into full-fledged war so that all honorable discharged veterans who fought gallantly in the Korean hills and rice paddies would be eligible for hospitalization, medical care, domiciliary treatment and burial benefits."

Motomura also pointed out that "with dwindling employment and closure of the sugar industry in Pahala (in 1996), the Kaʻū-Pāhala American Legion Post 7 shut down and Enitan continued his service through Post 3, with its headquarters in Hilo.

Motomura also acknowledged others who paved the way in the U.S. military for Asian Americans,

including 99-year old Iwao Yonemitsu, of the famed 442nd, Company L, comprised of Japanese American patriots in World War II who fought for the U.S. Yonemitsu was represented at the event in Pahala by his wife Alice.

Motomura noted that there were about 33,000 Japanese Americans fighting in World War II, many of them with family members who were put in detention camps. In Hawai'i fewer were detained and many joined the service and paved the path for Japanese Americans who moved up in the ranks in the U.S. military. Among them were three uncles of Eric Shinseki, who grew up in a sugar plantation town on Kaua'i. Shenseki graduated from West Point and became the only four star general of Japanese Ancestry in the U.S. Army. Shinseki served as Army Chief of Staff and Secretary of Veterans Affairs.

Motomura also noted that highest ranking Japanese American in World War II was John Aiso who became a Lt. Colonel and a U.S. Military Intelligence Service officer. After WWII, with Brown University and Harvard Law School degrees, Asio became the first Nisei judge in the U.S. rising to serve in the California State Court of Appeals.

Motomura also noted Harry B. Harris, Jr., whose mother Fumiko was Japanese. Harris was the first U.S Navy Admiral of Japanese ancestry and became the Commander of the Pacific Fleet and later the Commander of the U.S. Pacific Command. After he retired, he became Ambassador to South Korea.

For the Enitan event in Pāhala, giving the prayers and blessing the food was American Legion Chaplain and deacon Charley Mapa. Also attending was American Legion Department of Hawai'i District 4 Vice-Commander Antonio Gaspar from Kona and other American Legion members. Assisting were Peter and Fran Volpe and members of the Holy Rosary Hospitality Committee.

MONEY FROM A COMPANY THAT PROMOTED VAPING will go to preventative and curative outreach in Hawai'i, which has the nation's highest vaping rate among middle schoolers and the second highest among high schoolers, according to the Centers for Disease Control & Prevention. "Nicotine addiction among Hawai‘i children, caused by the rise of e-cigarettes, is alarmingly high," said a statement on Wednesday from the office of the Hawai'i Attorney General.

between JUUL Labs and 34 states and territories resolving a two-year bipartisan investigation into the e-cigarette manufacturer’s marketing and sales practices. In addition to the financial terms, the settlement would force JUUL to comply with a series of strict injunctive terms severely limiting its marketing and sales practices.
As part of the settlement, Hawai‘i will receive $6.8 million, which could increase to more than $7
million if JUUL opts to extend payments over a period longer than five years.
“Hawai'i’s youth have been disproportionately affected by the nationwide vaping epidemic,” said the Hawai'i Attorney General. “This settlement holds JUUL accountable for its targeted and misleading marketing and aims to prevent JUUL from getting more of our children addicted to its products.”
JUUL was, until recently, the dominant player in the vaping market. The Attorney General's statement said that a "multistate investigation revealed that JUUL rose to this position by willfully engaging in an advertising campaign that appealed to youth, even though its e-cigarettes are both illegal for them to purchase and are unhealthy for youth to use. The investigation found that JUUL relentlessly marketed to underage users with launch parties, advertisements using young and trendy-looking models, social media posts and free samples. It marketed a technology-focused, sleek design that could be easily concealed and sold its product in flavors known to be attractive to underage users. JUUL also manipulated the chemical composition of its product to make the vapor less harsh on the throats of the young and inexperienced users. To preserve its young customer base, JUUL relied on age verification techniques that it knew were ineffective."
The investigation revealed JUUL’s original packaging as misleading It failed to clearly disclose that it contained nicotine and implied that it contained a lower concentration of nicotine than it actually did. "Consumers were also misled to believe that consuming one JUUL pod was the equivalent of smoking one pack of combustible cigarettes. The company also misrepresented that its product was a smoking cessation device without FDA approval to make such claims," said the statement from Hawai'i's AG.

Once fully executed, the settlement will resolve the lawsuit filed by the Hawai‘i Department of the Attorney General against JUUL in 2020. Hawaii’s lawsuit alleged that JUUL used marketing strategies that targeted teenagers, making JUUL products seem desirable, all while falsely understating the nicotine content of the product and its addictiveness. However, Hawai'i’s claims against Altria Group, Inc. (the parent company of Philip Morris and JUUL’s largest shareholder) are not affected by the settlement and remain active.
State of Hawai'i is represented in the lawsuit by the Honolulu law firm Starn O’Toole Marcus & Fisher, and the national law firm Lieff Cabraser Heimann & Bernstein, LLP.
As part of the settlement, JUUL has agreed to refrain from: youth marketing; funding education programs; depicting persons under age 35 in any marketing; use of cartoons; paid product placement;
sale of brand name merchandise; sale of flavors not approved by FDA; allowing access to websites without age verification on landing page; showing representations about nicotine not approved by FDA; misleading representations about nicotine content; sponsorships/naming rights; advertising in outlets unless 85 percent audience is adult; advertising on billboards; public transportation advertising; social media advertising (other than testimonials by individuals over the age of 35, with no health claims); use of paid influencers; direct-to-consumer ads unless age-verified, and giving out free samples.
The agreement also includes sales and distribution restrictions, including where the product may be displayed/accessed in stores, online sales limits, retail sales limits, age verification on all sales, and a retail compliance check protocol.

ELECTRONICS RECYCLING EVENTS will be on a new schedule, according to a statement from Hawai'i County released this week. It said that a reduction of state funding is leading to "procuring a
replacement schedule of electronics recycling collection events for the remainder of the calendar year. Please know that we are working on this and look forward to announcing details when we have finalized them. The Department of Environmental Management will announce the collections first on our website at http s://www.hawaiizerowaste.org/r ecycle/e-waste/."

According to the County, "A more permanent electronics recycling solution will come in the new calendar year. The State of Hawai'i recently enacted Act 151 (2022), which mandates that 'Manufacturers must fully fund their recycling plan, including the collection, transportation, and recycling of all [specified] electronic devices in the State.' These plans include 'Manufacturer recycling goals,' and the plans 'shall provide collection services at a minimum of once per month', 'at no cost to the owner' in certain population centers (e.g., Kailua-Kona and/or Hilo) starting in January 2023."
The statement from the Department of Environmental Management states: "We want to thank the public for doing their part in responsibly disposing of their E-Waste and ensuring that our island home continues to be a clean and safe paradise."
