WATER RIGHTS FOR FARMERS AND RANCHERS were the subject of a bill that advanced yesterday in the state Senate. It involves state licenses for Ka`u farmers and ranchers, who were afraid of losing them, as well as a state water license on former Maui sugar lands where the court has ordered the return of water to natural streams. House Bill 2501 would require that where an application has been made to continue an old lease, a holdover may be authorized annually until the pending application for the disposition of water rights is finally resolved or for three years, whichever is sooner. It would also require that the holdover is consistent with the public trust doctrine and any applicable law.
Hawai`i Senate passed a bill pertaining to water rights.

      The case on Maui involves returning water diverted by a sugar company back to its natural course for wildlife and more traditional farming. Ka`u agriculturalists say their situation is different. Ka`u’s old plantation water system was not a matter of diverting streams from their natural flow. Tunnels created by workers hired by sugar companies collect water as it drips down within the huge Mauna Loa volcano. The water, which was used in the past to carry sugar cane to the mills, has more recently been used for irrigation and watering livestock.
      While Ka`u farmers and ranchers testified in favor of the bill, others, including environmental groups, opposed it. Kapapala ranchers said they had been called by Hawai`i Farm Bureau to help with the issue by testifying before the state Legislature, and Hawai`i Farmers Union United asked Ka`u residents to testify in opposition to the bill.
      Regarding amendments that place a maximum of three years for applicants’ leases to be approved, Ways & Means Committee chair Sen. Jill Tokuda said, “We wanted to refocus the discussion on the farmers, ranchers and cattlemen statewide who were impacted by the broad ruling of the court. Our committee agreed to these amendments understanding that there are water permit holders throughout the state, including Wood Valley Water & Farm Coop, Kualoa Ranch, Kapapala Ranch, the Kaua`i Island Utilities Cooperative, Kapua Orchards Estate, LLC, Molowa`a Farmers Cooperative and the East Kauai Water Users Co-op, to name a few.”
      Ka`u’s Sen. Russell Ruderman voted for the measure but with reservations, while Sen. Josh Green voted against it.

KA`U LEARNING ACADEMY’S progress and challenges will be reported to the state Public Charter School Commission tomorrow by state Public Charter Schools Acting Executive Director Yvonne Lau. Ka`u Learning Academy was given conditional approval on March 10 to add seventh grade to its campus, contingent on leasing a portable, modular classroom. However, the school is asking to instead put up a 672-square-foot prefab HPM building with help from a contractor on its board at a cost of about $35,000.
      In a letter to the commission, KLA Executive Director Kathryn Tydlaka said, “Our students and their families are thrilled and relieved that they will be able to stay with us for an additional year.”
      Ka`u residents can join the 9 a.m. meeting online or by phone. Meeting number is 734 998 219, and the online password is Sylvia. By phone, call 1-877-668-4493 and enter the meeting number.

Animal Planet's Finding Bigfoot will film
a special in Hawai`i.
FINDING BIGFOOT WANTS MENEHUNE stories, say producers of the Animal Planet series. The television producers of a special on Menehune to be aired late this year are asking Big Island and Kaua`i residents for Menehune stories.
      Bret Yager reported in West Hawai`i Today that senior producer Sean Mantooth’s team will film in late May and early June. “Right now, we’re looking for witnesses, people who believe they have had an encounter,” Mantooth told Yager. He is also seeking people who claim Menehue ancestry.
      “We never thought we’d do an episode here, but the legends of the Menehune proved too much to resist,” Mantooth said. “We’re working very closely with native islanders on all fronts to give our audience the intriguing investigations they’ve come to expect while also treating the topic with respect.”
      Selected individuals will share their stories at a lu`au on May 25.

A small earthquake struck the surface of Ka`u this morning.
Map from USGS/HVO
A SURFACE EARTHQUAKE struck about one mile from Pahala at 2:54 a.m. this morning, Hawaiian Volcano Observatory reported. At magnitude-2.2, the temblor at a depth of 0.0 feet is considered a micro earthquake. According to HVO, “earthquake rates and seismic tremor have not changed significantly in the past day.” At Kilauea volcano’s summit lava lake, fluctuations in summit tremor amplitudes are related to spattering along the edges of the lake.

U.S. HOUSE OF REPRESENTATIVES unanimously passed Senate Bill 2512, which passed in the Senate last month and would encourage development of vaccines and treatments against the Zika virus by adding it to the Food and Drug Administration’s Priority Review Voucher Program. The legislation now heads to the President for approval.
      The CDC confirmed today that Zika causes severe birth defects, setting aside the notion that mosquito pesticides might be the cause of small brains in newborns whose mothers were infected. Its report is published online by the New England Journal of Medicine at nemj.org.
      Yesterday, the CDC also confirmed that effects of Zika are even more harmful to human health than they originally suspected, and that the Aedes aegypti mosquitoes that carry it, as well as dengue fever, are already present in 30 states, including Hawai`i.
      “These dangerous vector mosquitoes have the potential to continue spreading diseases like the Zika virus and dengue fever very rapidly,” U.S. Rep. Tulsi Gabbard said. “In just over three months, there have been 346 cases of the Zika virus in the United States, and over the past six months, there have been 263 cases of dengue fever in Hawai`i alone. We must expedite the research and development needed to find an effective treatment, or even a potential cure to these mosquito-borne diseases. Today’s vote to accelerate the development of Zika Virus vaccines and treatments is one step toward achieving that objective. At a practical level, we must bring together federal, state and local governments, private sector partners and other key stakeholders to get rid of this mosquito and contain the outbreaks we already have, and prevent future spread.”
      As of yesterday, the state Department of Health reported that Hawai`i County has had no new confirmed cases of dengue fever since March 23. DOH Chair Dr. Virginia Pressler previously said one month without cases would have to go by before Hawai`i Island’s current outbreak could be considered over.

Ka`u Calendar News Briefs Tuesday, April 12, 2016

Yesterday was the 150th anniversary of the Royal Order of Kamehameha I. See more below. Photo from the Royal Order
A NEW ONLINE PORTAL LETS CONSUMERS see how Hawai`i restaurants and other food service organizations fare in food safety inspections, starting with O`ahu inspection data. Past neighbor island inspections will be uploaded by the end of the year. Going forward, all inspection reports from all islands will be posted in near real-time, depending upon availability of secure, wireless access.
      Access to data from food safety inspection reports, complete with descriptions of violations, gives consumers a behind-the-scenes glimpse at food safety and sanitation practices at food outlets they frequent.
      “We’re taking transparency to an entirely new level,” said Peter Oshiro, who manages Hawai`i Department of Health’s food safety inspection program. “Information from the inspection reports empowers consumers and informs their choices.”
      The online portal, which has taken nearly a year to develop and refine, is a companion component to the DOH’s placard program, which it began as part of the state’s Food Safety Code adopted in 2014. Under the placard program, food outlets are given a green, yellow or red placards and are required to post them in visible locations at their entrances. The color-coded placards indicate whether a food establishment has passed its health inspection, received a conditional pass or has been closed due to permit suspension. Restaurants are fined for not posting them.
Peter Oshiro
      “Data from the inspection reports give consumers the details behind the green, yellow or red placards, which many have become accustomed to seeing near the entrances of restaurants or other places that serve food,” Oshiro said. “Our observant inspectors are capturing every detail for their reports using established science-based criteria. With this degree of disclosure, we believe the online reports will make restaurants and other food service organizations pay closer attention to their food safety and sanitation practices.”
      Just as the publicly posted placards provide an incentive for restaurants and other food service organizations to rectify any food-handling or other safety issues, the publicly available data from the inspection reports are expected to motivate restaurants to take a closer look at their own practices since these reports become a permanent, historical record accessible to the public.
      “About 25 percent of the locations we inspect receive a yellow card. We hope to see this rate steadily decline with this new website,” Oshiro said. “We can now show what a bad inspection looks like on a public site. This should be a great catalyst for the industry to improve their food safety practices and make internal quality control a priority before our inspections.”
      More than 10,000 food establishments statewide prepare or serve food and require a Department of Health permit to operate their business, with roughly 1,800 on Hawai`i Island. This includes restaurants, hotels, caterers, food warehouses, markets, convenience stores, lunch wagons, push carts and institutional kitchens for healthcare facilities, schools, adult and child day care centers and prisons.
      The Hawai`i restaurant inspection website is at http://hi.healthinspections.us/hawaii.

HO`OMALU KA`U, THE NONPROFIT that is planning Ka`u Heritage Center, applied for $16,000 in county funding for its Saving Ka`u Kupuna Life Histories program, under the direction of the organization's president and contact person Lehua Lopez-Mau. Hawai`i County Council’s Human Services & Social Services Committee recommended $3,500 for the project. The committee will discuss these and other recommendations at its meeting on Tuesday, April 19.

  The budget includes professional fees, operations, supplies, advertising and liability insurance to conduct 12 interviews, capturing life histories in digital video, according to the application. Complete interviews would be archived at Ka`u Heritage Center, with a copy given to each family. Ho`omalu Ka`u’s grant application also includes plans to record “for archival purposes” six storytelling sessions at county parks in Ka`u where “kupuna living and working in Ka`u over the last 70-plus years” could bring their "photos, household things, and artifacts from their old plantation, ranching and farming days."
      “Kupuna (elders), born and raised in Ka`u, or living here for more than 30 years, are rapidly passing away,” the grant application states. “Their memories of a unique, bygone Hawaiian era, encompassing almost all of the 20th century, need to be preserved for future generations.”
      Last year the organization received $3,000 in county funding.

Sen. Mazie Hirono spoke on the Senate floor
to mark Equal Pay Day.
Image from Office of Sen. Hirono
SEN MAZIE HIRONO MARKED Equal Pay Day today by introducing the Science, Technology, Engineering, and Math Opportunities Act, legislation that would improve inclusion of women, minorities and people with disabilities in STEM careers. Equal Pay Day marks the day in 2016 when, on average, women’s wages catch up to what men earned in 2015.
      “It’s unacceptable that we are more than 100 days into 2016, but women’s salaries are only now catching up with what men made last year,” Hirono said. “While the gender pay gap affects women across all fields, women in STEM careers continue to face barriers that can limit their opportunities for employment and equal pay. The STEM Opportunities Act takes a comprehensive approach to combatting factors that limit the advancement of women and other underrepresented groups in STEM. For America to remain competitive in a 21st century economy, we must break down barriers for working women through passing the Paycheck Fairness Act and the STEM Opportunities Act.”
      Hirono also took to the Senate floor to mark Equal Pay Day and highlight disparities in STEM fields. For example, at the University of Hawai`i at Manoa in school year 2014-2015, men earned more than five times the number of computer science bachelor’s degrees and three times as many bachelor’s degrees in the College of Engineering as women.

U.S. Rep. Tulsi Gabbard
U.S. REP. TULSI GABBARD INTRODUCED a House resolution yesterday celebrating the 150th anniversary of the Royal Order of Kamehameha I, Hawai`i’s oldest royal order organization. King Kamehameha V established the Royal Order on April 11, 1865 to honor the legacy of his grandfather, King Kamehameha I, to defend the Kingdom of Hawai`i’s sovereignty and to preserve the culture and traditions of the Native Hawaiian people.
      “For 150 years, the Royal Order of Kamehameha has honored the legacy of Hawai`i’s King Kamehameha I, as well as helped to cultivate and perpetuate the culture, traditions and practices of Native Hawaiians,” Gabbard said. “Today, the Royal Order continues to honor its namesake and fulfill its mission of uplifting our communities by supporting and empowering the Native Hawaiian people. I urge my colleagues to join me in congratulating The Royal Order of Kamehameha I on 150 years of service and celebrating the legacy of this unique cultural and historical treasure.”

      “This is such an incredible celebration of our living treasures – our nation’s living treasures, and our local Hawai`i treasures,” said Gabbard, a twice-deployed Major with Hawai`i Army National Guard, about the gathering. “Every day that we get the chance to say thank you for your incredible bravery, for the example that you’ve set, and for the service and sacrifice that you and your family members have given to all of us – that is a very special day.”
      Gabbard spoke about the significance of the event’s theme, 442nd: The Legacy Begins. “Your legacy of service will continue on through your stories, through your lives, the things you’ve shared with us. It will continue on through your sons and daughters and this great organization, the 442nd Veterans Club, that makes sure that you are always remembered, and it lives on through the soldiers that continue to serve proudly in the 100th/442, who proudly wear that ‘Go for Broke’ patch on their uniforms, knowing that it not only represents this country, but it represents the great heroes who have come before us.”

MORE THAN 200 MEMBERS of the Hawai`i Air National Guard and the active duty Air Force returned with their F-22 Raptors to Joint Base Pearl Harbor-Hickam following a six-month-long deployment to the Central Command Area of Responsibility.

      The F-22 fighter aircraft and most of the Airmen departed from Joint Base Pearl Harbor-Hickam in late September 2015. The Airmen and F-22 aircraft returned home in several groups over the past several days.
      The Hawaiian Raptors are flown by pilots from HIANG’s 199th Fighter Squadron and the active duty’s 19th Fighter Squadron. Maintenance and support personnel are from HIANG’s 154th Wing and the active duty’s 15th Wing. This was the first operational deployment for the Hawaiian Raptors.
      While in the CENTCOM AOR, the F-22 Raptors successfully struck a number of high-value ISIS (also known as Daesh or ISIL) targets. The Hawaiian Raptors were an integral part of Operation Inherent Resolve – an 18-nation air coalition that is driving Daesh back considerably in Iraq and Syria. Daesh has lost more than 40 percent of the populated areas it once controlled in northern Iraq and recently retreated from several key populations centers in Syria.
      “Our people performed extremely well, and they did it with the Aloha spirit,” said one of HIANG’s pilots. “Maintenance did an outstanding job and made all their taskings. We integrated well with the other coalition forces and conducted our operations flawlessly.”
An airman embraces his family upon returning from his
six-month deployment.
      Because of security considerations and host nation sensitivities, HIANG will not release names of its personnel who deployed and the country or base where the Raptors operated. HIANG will also not release the number of F-22 fighters that deployed. The CENTCOM AOR encompasses the area of Southwest Asia and most of the Middle East.
      In 2010, the 199th Fighter Squadron converted to the F-22 from the F-15 Eagle and began flying the Raptors in partnership with the 19th Fighter Squadron.
      All of the HIANG Airmen who deployed are part of the 154th Wing, the largest Air National Guard wing in the nation. Hawai`i Air National Guard is comprised of nearly 2,500 Airmen whose federal mission is to be trained and available for active duty operational missions.

Four of 27 new correctional officers are assigned to Hawai`i Island.
Photo from Hawai`i Department of Public Safety
HAWAI`I COUNTY WILL HAVE FOUR NEW correctional officers following a graduation ceremony on O`ahu. Twenty-seven recruits from Basic Corrections Recruit Class 16-01 graduated from training and will begin their careers as correctional officers in facilities across the state. Three are assigned to Hawai`i Community Correctional Center, and one to Kulani Correctional Facility.
      The state Department of Public Safety described BCRC as a nine-week training that includes 360 hours of classroom time and physical training. Recruits learn standard of conduct, professionalism and ethics, report writing, interpersonal communications, maintaining security, crisis intervention, security threat groups (gangs), firearms, self-defense tactics and physical exercise.
      “These individuals chose a unique and challenging career path,” said Sergeant Dzuong Le, BCRC Sergeant-in-Charge. “The job of a corrections officer in a prison or jail is one of the toughest jobs anyone can do, but it can also be rewarding, too. As corrections officers, we are held to a higher standard. I know these men and women have what it takes to hold up that standard with professionalism, integrity and fairness.”
      All incoming classes receive recruit field training along with basic corrections training. During the final weeks of training, they go into the facility and begin their job with guidance from their training sergeants.

Lauren Holiday and Doug Chin encourage parents and youth
to say yes to healthy lifestyles and no to underage drinking.

APRIL IS ALCOHOL RESPONSIBILITY MONTH. Hawai`i Attorney General Doug Chin and Olympic Medalist and U.S. Women’s World Cup Soccer Team member Lauren Holiday encouraged parents and youth in Ka`u and throughout the state to say yes to a healthy lifestyle and no to underage drinking. In a message from the Attorney General's office, they suggested that parents and caregivers start a conversation about the dangers of underage drinking. “Conversations about positive, healthy choices need to start at an early age and continue through their teen years,” Holiday said. Chin urged parents to help their children learn why underage drinking is “unhealthy, dangerous and illegal.”
      Chin and Holiday suggested that parents see responsibility.org for information about the topic.
      “There is no better time than Alcohol Responsibility Month to talk to your kids and teens about making smart choices, especially the choice to say ‘no’ to underage drinking,” said Lisa Graham Keegan, chair of Responsibility.org’s national advisory board. “The Responsibility Starts with Me message is extremely applicable to parents and teachers, as they are role models to their kids and students, and parents are the leading influence over their teens’ decision to drink — or not to drink — alcohol. We hope the campaign’s message of personal responsibility will empower parents and teachers to continue having conversations with their kids and students about responsibility, in all aspects of life, throughout the year and for years to come.”
