CENTRAL PACIFIC HURRICANE SEASON BEGINS TODAY. The first four tropical cyclone names would be Aikoni, Ema, Hone, and Iona. Central Pacific Hurricane Center predicts a busier than usual storm season, running through Nov. 1.
Hurricane Walaka ripped
across northern Hawaiian
Islands where green sea
turtles from Punaluʻu Black
Sand Beach go to nest.
     The regional shelter for Kaʻū is the Kaʻū District Gym, adjacent to the Kaʻū High School campus. The American Red Cross is seeking volunteers. To volunteer for the Red Cross, call 935-8305.
     County Civil Defense recommends that every household develop a plan with water and food on hand.
     Last year, Hurricane Walaka, the strongest storm of the Pacific season, at 160 mph, tore across the northern Hawaiian Islands. Walaka destroyed nesting sites for the green sea turtles, which swim there every few years to nest, temporarily leaving their Kaʻū homes, like Punaluʻu Black Sand Beach. Others, such as Lane, hung off South Point for several days, then passed south, causing damage all over the  state. Kaʻū experienced some flooding, with roads temporarily washed out, but damage from winds and surf was minimal. Hurricane Olivia made landfall on Maui and Lanaʻi.
     Hawaiʻi Island was threatened by six hurricanes in 2018 – the average is four or five. Other storms not powerful enough to be called hurricanes also caused flooding and wind damage.

THE EIGHTY-NINTH HAWAIʻI COUNTY POLICE RECRUIT CLASS recognition brought families of future police officers to ceremonies on Friday at Hilo Hawaiian Hotel, after six months of academic training. Public officials thanked families and asked for much emotional support.
     Police Chief Paul Ferreira said the event marks achieving "their first goal in their arduous journey in becoming full fledged solo police officers with the Hawaiʻi Police Department... With the pinning of this badge by those special persons in your lives, you're taking an oath of honor that you'll never betray your integrity, your character, or the public trust. You'll always have the courage to hold yourself and others accountable for your individual actions. You swear that you'll always maintain the highest ethical standards and to uphold these standards and the values of the Hawaiʻi Police Department and the Hawaiʻi island community that you serve."
Hugs abound from loved ones at badge pinning for recruits.

     Recruits raised their right hands and said: "I solemnly affirm that I will faithfully support the constitution and laws of the United States of America and the laws of the State of Hawaiʻi, and will conscientiously and impartially discharge my duties as a police officer in the police department in the County of Hawaiʻi, State of Hawaiʻi, and any and other duties devolving upon me in connection with such office."
     Ferreira thanked families and friends of the recruits "for sharing your loved ones with us, for allowing them to make the sacrifices, and I want to thank you personally for making the sacrifices that you have until now and you will continue to do so throughout their careers."
     Mayor Harry Kim addressed the recruits and families: "From today on, they don't have a first name. From today on, with the public, they don't even have a last name. They are, 'Officer.' And with that comes a tremendous burden... No one out there will ever ask you how long have you been on the force when you're doing your job. They expect you to be letter perfect all the time - all the time," he emphasized. "Even when you are confronted with situations that most everybody in this room will never have that kind of responsibility of that kind of control and confrontation... They will not know that you've been in less than a day, a week, a month, or five years. They see a police officer and we are so unfair to you because we expect you to be letter perfect, every single time."

     The mayor told the families, "You got to know - whether it be your son, your daughter, your husband, or just a friend - that's how the public sees them... But what you have to know, from here on in, they need you more, more than ever, in regards to communication."
Mayor Harry Kim
     The mayor asked friends and family to put themselves in the police officer's situation, like a tragic vehicle accident, involving children, innocent people, "and all of the emotions. You don't know that's happening," he told the loved ones. "You're just waiting for him to come home from work, after shift, whether it be on the first, second, or third watch. And because you had the day planned... whether it be a party, a dinner, or even a conversation... and you expect these people... to be the John, or the Joe, or the Jane. How can they switch over so fast to be that... the happy person or whomever they were, before they went to work.  And to come home - and you were anxious to go to a birthday party, or shopping, or dinner, or whatever, or to help take care of the daughter or the son - you must open up that line of communication to them, because it's not going to be easy many, many times."
     The mayor said that he told the recruits from the first day, to "help each other, lean on each other." He asked loved ones to "let them lean on you too."
Police Chief Paul Ferreira
     President of the 89th Class, Lawrence Davis, said, "Everyone in this class has confronted and overcome a personal weakness, and come out a better and more confident officer. Every one of them has tasted a failure before conquering it. Every one of them passed a breaking point and survived. Every one of them was given every opportunity and reason to say 'I quit,' but didn't. Be proud of them."
     He described the recruits to their families as "capable guardians, servants of the peace whose daily goal is to come safely home to you." See the ceremony at Big Island Video News.

MAYOR HARRY KIM IS NOW AN HONORARY PARK RANGER. Earlier this week, during After Dark in the Park in HawaiianVolcanoesNational Park, Acting Superintendent Rhonda Loh and Ranger Dean Gallager presented  Kim with a certificate proclaiming him an Honorary Ranger, complete with the NPS flat hat.
     Kim is recognized for "his tremendous contributions to the Island of Hawaiʻi, the National Park Service, and to the generations who will continue to be inspired by his work to protect, respect, and aloha ‘āina (land). Not only did our mayor look great in his new hat, he said it made him feel great, too," said a statement from the Park.

USGS PLANS TO SURVEY KĪLAUEA VOLCANO from its summit to Kumukahi, announces this week's Volcano Watch, written by U.S. Geological Survey Hawaiian Volcano Observatory scientists and affiliates:
     Since the end of 2018's volcanic activity, USGS HVO scientists have wanted to resurvey Kīlauea Volcano's ground surface to document changes brought about by the Puna eruption and summit collapse. Doing so would allow us to more accurately answer questions about the total volumes of erupted lava and summit subsidence that occurred last summer.
     By detailing these changes, it could also facilitate recovery and long-term risk mitigation projects by local partner agencies. A new survey would also allow comparison to earlier digital elevation data sets acquired by both helicopter lidar (Light Detection and Ranging) and by UAS (unmanned aerial systems) imagery during Kīlauea's 2018 eruption.

Areas on Kīlauea that will be covered by a helicopter lidar survey in June 2019. Red lines enclose areas over which 
the survey helicopter will fly at 396 m (1,300 ft) above ground level. Green lines enclose areas over which the 
helicopter will fly at 151 m (500 ft) above ground level. USGS map
     We are happy to announce that our desire to resurvey Kīlauea will soon become a reality. The precision of this new survey will improve the accuracy of those earlier data sets.
     The data will be acquired by a bright yellow helicopter flying over much of Kīlauea's summit and East Rift Zone at an altitude of 396 meters (1,300 feet) above ground level. The aircraft will fly in a lawn-mowing pattern, back and forth in a northeast-southwest direction. A few smaller areas on Kīlauea, namely parts of the East Rift Zone – Leilani Estates, Ala ʻIli Roadd, and Puʻu ʻŌʻō – the upper Southwest Rift Zone, and the summit caldera, will be flown at a lower altitude of 152 m (500 ft) agl.
     These helicopter flights are currently planned for the period of June 13 to June 30, weather permitting.
     The survey will use lidar technology capable of sending out hundreds of laser pulses per second. This should allow coverage of at least 30 laser pulses per square meter, or about 3 pulses per square foot. The lower elevation flights will allow coverage of at least 100 ppsm, or about 9 pulses per square foot.
     Why collect the lidar with such high-resolution? It's the best way to detect and map vertical or near-vertical features, and there are a lot of them, from ground cracks everywhere, to fissures in the lower East Rift Zone and caldera walls at Kīlauea's summit. High-resolution lidar is the best way to document and measure these potentially hazardous features.
This preliminary thickness map of Kīlauea Volcano's 2018 lower East Rift Zone lava flows was calculated by
subtracting pre-eruption ground surface elevations from post-eruption ground surface elevations mapped with
USGS Unmanned Aerial System (drone) flights. The drones acquired 2,800 aerial photos from which 1.5 billion
common points were automatically selected by Surface-from-Motion software. It is still preliminary because
additional ground control points are needed to finalize the map. USGS map
     A helicopter, rather than a fixed-wing aircraft, will be used for the survey because it can fly slower and acquire high-resolution lidar. The helicopter can also work even if there is high-altitude cloud cover.
     The new lidar surface from this survey can be used to model where new lava flows may travel if renewed volcanic activity occurs in the LERZ. From an emergency management perspective, having these models was important during Kīlauea eruption responses in 2014-2015 and 2018.
     The bare-earth elevation model, digitally stripped of all vegetation, is the main interest of geologists because it will reveal geologic features such as faults and cracks that are not yet mapped. However, the lidar point cloud data from which it is derived will also contain other data, such as vegetation type and density. This could be a goldmine for biologists mapping flora on Kīlauea
     To illustrate the power of lidar, in a USGS 8 ppsm lidar survey of Glacier Peak volcano in Washington – eros.usgs.gov/doi-remote-sensing-activities/2015/usgs/lidar-reveals-glacier-peak-volcano – it is possible to differentiate between maple, alder, and fir trees in the vegetation points. Blackberries at the edges of open areas can also be detected. In California, lidar surveys are used to catalog vegetation that could fuel forest fires.
     Along with lidar data, the helicopter will simultaneously collect 4-band digital imagery in red-green-blue, or RGB, plus near-infrared. These multispectral images will also be useful to help detect geologic features and classify vegetation.
     The final products of this survey, a digital elevation model and detailed imagery covering surveyed areas, will be made public and should be available by late 2019.
During the lidar survey, equipment will be mounted on a bright yellow 
Hughes 500 helicopter like the one shown here. The helicopter will 
fly in a northeast or southwest direction over the survey areas depicted 
on the map. Photo courtesy of Windward Aviation
     We understand that helicopter noise can be disruptive, so we will greatly appreciate affected residents' patience and understanding as we collect this extremely important data to help mitigate future lava flow hazards. The survey should take only 8-10 days, weather permitting, to complete.
Volcano Activity Updates
     Kῑlauea Volcano is not erupting and its USGS Volcano Alert level remains at NORMAL. The USGS Volcano Alert level for Mauna Loa remains at NORMAL.
For definitions of USGS Volcano Alert Levels, see volcanoes.usgs.gov/vhp/about_alerts.html.
     Rates of deformation, gas release, and seismicity on Kīlauea have not changed significantly over the past week. Since early March, GPS stations and tiltmeters at Kīlauea's summit have recorded deformation consistent with slow magma accumulation within the shallow portion of the summit magma system. However, gas measurements have not indicated shallowing of large volumes of magma. 
     On Kīlauea's East Rift Zone, GPS stations and tiltmeters continue to show motions consistent with refilling of the deep magmatic reservoir in the broad region between Puʻu ʻŌʻō and Highway 130. This trend has been observed since the end of the 2018 eruption, although there is an indication that this motion has been slowing down over the past couple weeks.
     Sulfur dioxide emission rates on Kīlauea's ERZ and summit remain low, but HVO continues to closely monitor gas emissions in both areas for any changes.
     Two earthquakes with three or more felt reports occurred in the Hawaiian Islands this past week: a magnitude-2.8 quake 7 kilometers (4 miles) southeast of Waimea at 11 km (7 mi) depth on May 25 at 10:35 p.m., and a magnitude-3.4 quake 15 km (9 mi) northeast of Waialua at 25 km (16 mi) depth on May 24 at 3:16 a.m.
