A macadamia orchard, which would have been removed, will be retained on land that will remain under the ownership of Kamehameha Schools. Kamehameha will sell the land closest to Highway 11 to the county for the treatment plant. The county will use lagoons and and native trees to treat and absorb wastewater.
Pāhala residents and businesses who will switch to the new system from the old C. Brewer sugar plantation's Large Capacity Cesspools, now operated by the County of Hawaiʻi, are invited to a workshop to be held by the county's Department of Environmental Management. A notice mailed to users of the old system says:

JOSH STANBRO, who helped to negotiate the acquisition and preservation of Honuʻapo lands around Whittington Beach Park, took a message to the recent Global Climate Change Summit in San Francisco. He carried a sign that said "Honolulu Mayor Kirk Caldwell Unable to Attend Due to Climate Change. #HurricaneOlivia #ClimateMayors"
Gov. David Ige, and state Board of Land & National Resources chair Suzanne Case, gave presentations, along with Stanbro's presentation on behalf of the Honolulu mayor.
Stanbro is City & County of Honolulu's chief resilience officer and Executive Director of Honolulu's Office of Climate Change.
When assisting with the Honu`apo preservation he was head of The Trust for Public Land's operations throughout the state of Hawaiʻi. He helped to protect over 25,000 acres and dedicate over $200 million in land conservation funds.

DRAMATIC COASTLINE CHANGES were created by Kīlauea during the three months of eruption that added about 875 acres of new land along the lower Puna coast, while covering a total of 13.7 square miles with new lava.
The state Department of Land and Natural Resources recently conducted an assessment of damage to the popular Pohoʻiki Boat Ramp andIsaac Hale Park
Prior to the latest eruption, four companies with DOBOR commercial permits operated lava ocean tours from the ramp. The tiny bay leading up to the ramp was also a popular swimming spot and ocean-entrance for surfers and other water enthusiasts.
At MacKenzie State Recreation Area, reopened on Sept. 8, two new black sand beaches present themselves to the public. Prior to the eruption, the park's coastline was punctuated by steep, rocky cliffs that dropped precipitously and directly into the ocean. The larger of the pair of beaches is directly below the parking lot and still requires careful navigation down the cliff face. "The beauty of the shimmering black sand beaches is underlain with danger," says the DLNR statement.
DLNR Division of State Parks Administrator Curt Cottrell remarks, "We're very pleased to now reopen MacKenzie. It is critically important to enable shoreline access for our local community. As always, we request that people demonstrate responsible behavior and use judgment and common sense when venturing into any areas impacted by the Lower East Rift Zone eruption and avoid promoting excursions on social media – as it only increases the appetite for others often less skilled to follow."

The state Department of Land and Natural Resources recently conducted an assessment of damage to the popular Pohoʻiki Boat Ramp and
However, the changes are great: an estimated 14,000 cubic yards of newly created black sand blocks access of the boat ramp from the ocean. The concrete structures that once formed a breakwater are mounded with black sand, and the Pohoʻiki surf spot has a new angle.
Finn McCall, an engineer with the DLNR Division of Boating and Ocean Recreation, and DOBOR's Hawai‘i Island Branch Manager, Stephen Schmelz, flew to Pohoʻiki by helicopter "to get a close look at what Kīlauea wrought," says the DLNR website.
Schmelz said, "We were here during the eruptive activity in mid-July and fully expected the ramp to be taken within a matter of days. Amazingly, while lava crept to the edge of the neighboringIsaac Hale Beach Park

McCall took measurements on the newly formed, crescent-shaped black sand beach, and in the new pool created by the encirclement. He said, "We have a lot more analysis to do, but it appears, based on our initial assessment, that we could actually remove the black sand and re-create the entrance to the boat ramp."
According to DLNR, reopening of the boat ramp "would be dependent on road access being restored, support from the local community, the securing of necessary permits, and most importantly – funding."
Mayor Harry Kim said, "DOBOR is now working closely with the County of Hawaiʻi Beach Park
There are no estimates yet of how much it would cost or a time frame for potential work to begin.
McCall and Schmelz flew the entire Lower Puna coastline looking for other possible small boat ramp sites, in case Pohoʻiki can't be resurrected. They concluded that there may be a couple of options, but like at Pohoʻiki, a new ramp would require support from the community, permits, road access, and millions of dollars in funding for design and construction.

State Parks Caretaker Kyle Takeya explains, "There is a powerful undertow at these beaches and a swimmer or boarder could easily be swept out to sea." He says there are now a total of seven black sand beaches, created in the last few months by Kīlauea , between MacKenzie and Pohoʻiki.
From the northern boundary of MacKenzie, says DLNR, it is a short walk to the edge of the newly formed lava flow – which remains within a restricted access zone. On the first day of the reopening of MacKenzie, a National Guardsman walked out to the edge of the lava flow and spoke to numerous visitors about the risks and hazards associated with the newly-altered landscape. In addition to the extremely sharp lava – which creates unstable footing – there are pockets where the ground may look stable, but is not, says DLNR. Road signs leading into MacKenzie warn people to be aware of the possibility of continuing volcanic gas emissions.

SEN. MAZIE HIRONO IS STANDING UP for Dr. Christine Blasey Ford, who has asked for an FBI probe into Judge Brett Kavanaugh before she is willing to testify before the U.S. Senate Judiciary Committee. Ford alleges that Kavanaugh, the nominee for the U.S. Supreme Court, physically and sexually assaulted her when they were teenagers. Kavanaugh denied the accusations.
In an interview with CNN's New Day this morning, Hirono said Ford has nothing to gain from coming forward, that she is being "revictimized and retraumatised," attacked, has had to move out of her house, and that she requested anonymity when coming forward. Hirono said that the committee showed callousness when they asked Ford to testify this coming Monday without completing an FBI probe first. Hirono said she is considering questioning Kavanaugh on Monday, even if Ford does not testify. Hirono said she is also in favor of subpoenaing Mark Judge, who was allegedly in the room during the alleged assault.

The CNN interviewer noted that Ford reached out to a tip line in June, her local representative in July, and then sent a letter about the assaults to Sen. Diane Feinstein.
Hirono, who questioned Kavanaugh on whether he was ever involved in a sexual assault as an adult, or ever involved with proceedings associated with a sexual assault, said she asks the same question of many nominees who come before her for confirmation by the U.S. Senate. The CNN interviewer asked if Kavanaugh being 17 at the time of the alleged assault changed Hirono's stance on his culpability, to which Hirono replied, "a 17-year-old is not a baby."
During the interview, Hirono brought up confidential communications from women whom she said she she has know for many years. Two said they were raped. One was almost raped. The incidents took place many years ago. These women had never talked about them until telling Hirono, now, said the Senator. For these women, said Hirono, "the trauma continues. Not only do these women need to be heard; they need to be believed."
Hirono stated Kavanaugh's appointment is being rushed through because Pres. Trump "wants his guy there to, he hopes, help him evade criminal or civil proceedings."
She said she wanted to pose this question to her colleagues: "What if this was your daughter?"
In an email Hirono sent out yesterday, titled "Step up and do the right thing for a change," she says, "I think we all know when something is unfair. As Americans, it's on all of us to take a stand and do what is right — regardless of political party. It's time to stand up for victims of sexual assault and harassment."
 |

Hirono says, "It is reprehensible for Republicans to go forward with their plan to fast track Brett Kavanaugh's nomination. Their attitude is that Dr. Blasey Ford has been given a chance to testify, that she's refusing to do so, and so it's full speed ahead. Really? How about giving her a chance?"
Hirono said she expects her "fellow members of Congress — men and women — to stand with me and demand an FBI investigation into this matter." Hirono's message for Mitch McConnell and other Republican leaders, who she said are pushing for Kavanaugh's confirmation? "Step up and do the right thing for a change. Americans and your constituents deserve better than this rush job. If appointed, Brett Kavanaugh will be a lifetime appointee to the Supreme Court. We have one person who got to the Supreme Court under such a cloud. We should not be sending another."
Hirono pointedly said that both men and women have a responsibility to step up and fight back against the culture of sexual assault and harassment, regardless of party. "This is not a party issue; this is an issue of whether or not we will believe survivors, stand by them, and give them the respect they deserve."

McCall provides several patterns from which to choose, though students are welcome to bring their own ideas. Participants complete the workshop with a finished exterior lamp, and the knowledge and experience of the basic skills involved to continue working with stained glass.
Class fee is $90 for Volcano Art Center members, $100 for non-members, plus a $30 supply fee. An additional $30 supply fee will be charged for students who wish to purchase the light fixture from Volcano Art Center. Anyone with prior copper foil stained glass experience is welcome to enroll.
McCall started working in stained glass in 2006, when a friend gifted her with a piece. "She loved the way the sunlight played through the different types of glass, and wanted to explore the possibilities of interpreting the natural world, and interest spurred by her mother’s love of art and her grandmother’s love of birding. Her goal is to interpret Hawai‘i's unique environment through the stylized lens of stained glass," states the event description.
