HIGHWAY 11 PARTIALLY CLOSED DUE TO FLOODING IN PUNALUʻU, caused by heavy rains. A Flash Flood Watch was issued by the National Weather Service at 3 p.m. for the entire state, to run 24 hours, starting at 6 p.m.
     As of 8:15 p.m., Hawaiʻi Police Department reports that one lane is open on Hwy 11 between milemarkers 54 and 57, at Kāwā Flats. "Motorists are advised to drive with caution tonight as heavy rains may result in water on the roadways." Hwy 11 was closed in both directions for about an hour, starting at 7 p.m.
Flooding at Kāwā Flats is common.
     Civil Defense reports: "The rainy conditions causing the flooding are expected to continue through the evening. You will be informed as conditions change. Impacts of heavy rains, lightning, and strong down slope winds could affect areas on Hawaiʻi Island through this period. Take necessary precautions ahead of time. Do not drive or walk across flowing water - turn around, don't drown. If lightning threatens your area, the safest place to be is indoors."

THE COMPANY PLANNING A 6.5 MEGAWATT SOLAR FARM IN OCEAN VIEW ON 26 HOUSE LOTS may face financial challenges. On Thursday, SPI Energy announced a Nov. 6 general meeting of shareholders to consider and pass a reverse stock split.
     SPI Energy trades on Nasdaq, which requires shares to be worth at least $1 each. SPI Energy's shares have traded at less than $1 since January. According to Nasdaq Market Summary, SPI Energy's shares traded at $140 in January 2016, but fell to $18.90 by the end of 2016. In 2017, shares fell from $18 to $0.64. They hovered around the $1 mark in January 2018, but since traded below $1 and on Friday closed at 27 cents.

     On March 19, Nasdaq notified SPI Energy that its shares traded below $1 for more than 30 days. Nasdaq stated: "The Company did not meet the minimum bid price requirement set forth in Rule 5450(a)(1) of the Nasdaq Listing Rules."
     On Sept. 14, Nasdaq sent SPI Energy a Delisting Determination, stating, "trading of the Company's Ordinary Shares will be scheduled for delisting from Nasdaq at the opening of business on Sept. 20, 2018." SPI appealed the decision and the case goes before the Nasdaq board on Nov. 15.
     If shareholders authorize a reverse stock split, or stock consolidation, on Nov. 6, then the number of shares held by each stockholder will decrease ten fold. At present each share has a par value of $0.00001. After a reverse stock split, ten ordinary shares would be consolidated into one ordinary share, with a par value of $0.0001.
     Par value has no relation to market value of a stock. Corporations can issue stock with a low par value in order to avoid a liability to stockholders in the event that the stock price drops.
     The Ocean View solar project was announced by Hawaiʻi Electric Light Co. and SPI in 2015, and HELCo applied to the state Public Utilities Commission for a permit to construct an overhead transmission line. The application was opposed by members of the Ocean View community during a meeting before the PUC, and in a petition signed by 650 people. Those opposing use of house lots in their neighborhood for solar farms said they want to protect their residential neighborhoods from industrialization. The project is slated for sites scattered throughout three residential subdivisions in Ocean View.

     The Ocean View project was originally proposed under the auspices of the Feed In Tariff program - an attempt to bring small, renewable energy projects of less than 250 kWh speedily to the Big Island by 2013. However, the developers proposed 26 non-contiguous sites in Ocean View, creating utility-scale generation with a capacity of 6.5 megawatts. PUC rules require that projects in excess of five megawatts must be authorized by the PUC.
     A formal complaint against the project was filed in 2016 by two Ranchos residents, alleging that SPI Energy was undercapitalized. They pointed out that SPI needed nearly two years to pay $2 million for a new substation - an obligation that required funding by the feed-in-tariff deadline of 2013.
     They also argued that the FIT Program was misused to allow a large project "through the back door." They held that the delay in getting the project off the ground confounded the goals of the FIT program, namely the speedy introduction of renewable energy to the state. They also argued that - since the energy from the project would be a very high 23.8c per kWh - ratepayers on the Big Island would be adversely affected. Today, many solar projects provide power at around 11c per kWh.

     While SPI attempts to move forward, HELCo's application for a permit to construct an overhead transmission line in Ocean View is on hold.
     This is not the first time that SPI Energy has employed a reverse stock split to avoid being delisted by Nasdaq. On June 30, 2017, SPI Energy received a delisting determination, which it appealed on July 7. It was heard Aug
10, 2017. On Oct. 25, 2017, the company called an extraordinary general meeting of shareholders for Nov. 6, 2017, in Hong Kong. On Nov. 7, SPI Energy announced a 10-for-1 share consolidation, whereby each "ten ordinary shares, par value of US$0.000001, be consolidated into one ordinary share, par value of US$0.00001."
     On Nov. 29, 2017, the company announced that it had "regained compliance with the Nasdaq Listing Rule 5450(a)(1) with respect to the bid price of the Company's ordinary shares."
     The company is also involved in mining bitcoin. Its operations began on March 29, 2018.
     SPI Energy Co., Ltd. is a global provider of renewable energy solutions and crypto-miner hosting services for residential, commercial, and utility customers. The global company has operating headquarters in Hong Kong and Santa Clara, CA, and maintains operations in Asia, Europe, North America, and Australia.

THE HAWAIʻI FIRE ANT LAB is taking a new approach on fighting Little Fire Ants in coffee and fruit orchards. University of Hawaiʻi Agricultural Extension Agent Andrea Kawabata sent out a notice today, announcing that Hawaiʻi Ant Lab Little will focus more of its efforts towards assisting and providing outreach to commercial growers with LFA on their farms.
     "These ants, which have been found on crops such as coffee, mac nut, and tropical fruits, are rusty, orange-brown, and tiny - about 1/16 inch long or smaller. They are relatively slow moving compared to other species, dislodge easily from trees when disturbed, and can cause a painful and/or irritating sting; though, not all infestations cause harm."
     Writes Kawabata, "In edible crop orchard situations, options for control are not as diverse as for the home. So, assistance from HAL is important for successful ant management in orchard situations. Early detection of LFA on farms is imperative for ease of control and to stop the spread."
     Kawabata offers guidance in determining whether Little
Fire Ants are on the farms and orchards:
     "Surveying for LFA is simple. All you need is creamy peanut butter, chopsticks, coffee stirrers, popsicle sticks, bottle(s) or Ziploc(s), and about an hour of waiting time: Spray paint the sticks with a bright color so you can find the sticks. Dogs and mongoose love peanut butter as well, so keep pets away from your survey area and don't be too alarmed if you can't find all your sticks. Survey stumps of trees, rock walls, palms, banana, ti, and other shady moist places. Be able to re-locate areas that are positive for LFA for ease of treatment."
     To confirm that Little Fire Ants are present, drop the stick into a zip-lock bag, place in the freezer overnight and mail to: Hawaiʻi Ant Lab; Hawaiʻi Department of Agriculture; 16 E. Lanikaula St., Hilo, HI 96720. Learn more about LFA and HAL at littlefireants.com.
