THE NEW INTERISLAND TRAVEL RULE IS IN EFFECT. The proclamation signed by Gov. David Ige and Hawaiʻi Attorney General Clare Connors sets down penalties of up to one year in prison and a $5,000 fine. Persons traveling between any of the islands are subject to a 14-day mandatory self-quarantine. All who travel interisland are required to fill out and sign an Interisland Declaration Form with: name; residential address; contact telephone number; and destination information. Travelers must indicate the purpose of the travel. The form can be completed prior to arriving at the airport.

Quarantine exceptions are authorized for those traveling for short term stays for medical or health care, and for those working in essential services. Those persons are to remain in their travel residence unless performing necessary work functions or medical care. As long as they wear appropriate protective gear, and follow social distancing protocols – keeping a distance of six feet from others, and using hand sanitizing procedures – upon return from their travel, they are not required to quarantine for 14 days.
The 14-day quarantine also applies to anyone coming to the islands from out-of-state. Call Civil Defense at 935-0031 for clarification.

"TESTING IS ABSOLUTELY CRITICAL IN OUR FIGHT TO DEFEAT THE SPREAD OF CORONAVIRUS," said Rep. Tulsi Gabbard during a live telephone town hall today. She was joined by Dr. Scott Miscovich, a physician who has been leading COVID-19 testing efforts and a senior adviser to Lt. Gov. Josh Green. Testing was the dominant theme of the evening, and the Congresswoman fielded questions from Hawaiʻi residents on topics ranging from protective measures for healthcare workers and medical supplies, to social distancing and economic assistance.

"While testing numbers have increased, both here and across the country, we are nowhere near the scale of testing proven to be effective in countries like South Korea," said Gabbard.
"Dr. Miscovich and his team who are conducting testing across the state are working very hard to improve access to testing so that we can better contain the virus. Just like healthcare professionals across the state, they are in dire need of masks and other personal protective equipment. I and many others are working hard every day to get them what they need so they can take care of all of us," said Gabbard.

At the end of the eight weeks, or when this is over, they can show those expenses and that loan is forgiven, meaning they owe nothing.
Sen. Brian Schatz said, "This new loan program will help Hawaiʻi small businesses meet their payroll and provide people with paychecks for up to eight weeks. It's important that people apply as soon as they can to make sure they have the help they need to ride this out."
The new SBA Paycheck Protection Loan Program, created through the Coronavirus Aid, Relief, and Economic Security Act, provides small businesses with zero-fee loans of up to $10 million.
A MAJOR DISASTER DECLARATION for the State of Hawaiʻi was signed by Pres. Donald Trump and announced by Sen. Mazie Hirono. The declaration will trigger the release of additional federal funds to help Hawaiʻi recover from the COVID-19 pandemic. "Combating the coronavirus pandemic will require us to marshal resources at the federal, state, and county level. Today's approval of the federal disaster declaration will unlock crucial federal resources to assist our state and county governments as they work to contain this growing threat," said Hirono.
HAWAIʻI COUNTY WILL RECEIVE PART OF $5.5 MILLION in funding toward support of law officers during the coronavirus outbreak. The state will receive $5.5 million under the Byrne-Justice Assistance Grant program. Congress passed an increase in JAG grant funding as part of the third coronavirus relief package, to help police officers and other first responders who are at an increased risk of contracting COVID-19.
Under the terms of the grant program, state and county governments may use the funding to support purchases of personal protective equipment, hire additional officers, pay overtime for officers working long hours, conduct training for officers, and address the medical needs of inmates in state and local prisons, among other critical uses.

PANDEMIC PRIORITIES, THINKING AHEAD is the title of the op-ed by former state Senator Gary Hooser, founder of HAPA, Hawaiʻi Alliance for Progressive Action. He writes:
"While our first priority is personal health and then the economic realities of today, we must also at some point soon talk about what comes tomorrow. There is the "here and now" conversation of social distancing, travel bans, quarantines and the fundamental need to just stay at home. By now, most of us get it and we are staying home if able to do so.

"Personally, I am ready to move on and accept that there are enough cooks in the kitchen. When there is a capacity for expanded statewide testing, I'm confident that the decision will be made. As the government can develop further rules on better enforcing the mandatory quarantine I am likewise sure that will happen. Banging on those in power trying to do their best only makes things worse. Likewise, hating on people just because they are driving a rental car or don't look local, or have pulled over to look at the ocean, is unacceptable.
"We are better than this. Each of us needs to take another deep breath and remember yet once again, that we are all in this together.
"The immediate task before us is taking care of our personal health, and the health of the greater community. That boils down to staying home. If we must go out to work or do essential tasks, we must take the appropriate steps to social distance, wash our hands, etc.
"Following close behind protecting our health, is managing as best we can the economic realities of the moment. Again, we need to remember we are all in this together. If you are a renter who has lost their job, reach out and talk to your landlord. If you are a landlord, offer help if you can to your tenant and then likewise reach out to the bank who is awaiting your mortgage payment.
"If you have lost your job or had to close your business, or if you need help just to pay your bills or put food on the table – you should do the research and apply now for the help that is available. If you are not sure where to start, let your friends and neighbors know of your situation. Someone, I am sure, will step up to help. After all, that is how we roll.
"It's time now for the mortgage industry to simply reduce interest rates on existing mortgages, without forcing all to go through the refinance process. Ditto for credit card interest and student loans. While loan forbearance is helpful, temporarily deferring monthly payments is not enough. The federal government is shoveling trillions of dollars into the financial markets to keep them viable; that help must be directed also to the interest rates being charged on consumer debt and residential mortgages.
"Soon we must engage the post-pandemic public policy, #pppp, conversation. At some point, the 2020 legislative session will reopen. When this happens, we as a community must ensure that key "moving forward" issues are addressed with the urgency they deserve.
"The knee jerk legislative reaction to kickstarting the economy will be to invest in construction projects and reboot the visitor industry. Both must be done, but both must be done with mindfulness. We need a massive investment in basic infrastructure and affordable housing. We also need to support our friends and family in the visitor industry. But we need limits on growth, the industry must pay its fair share, and future visitors must be better informed as to the importance of respecting both our culture and our special places.
"Construction and visitor jobs must be supported, but the current situation calls for much more.
The fragility of our "supply chain" and the need for food self-sufficiency has never been so apparent. We must attack this challenge with the commitment it deserves.
"With the wide availability of modern communication technology, there is no legitimate excuse to continue delaying the opportunity for meaningful public participation in state government, regardless of where you live. We need 'remote testimony' capability now.
"Finally: Now is not the time to balance the state budget on the backs of the most economically vulnerable. Hard-earned and much-deserved tax credits and modest incremental wage increases must be preserved and, in fact, expanded. When the 2020 legislative session eventually is called back to order, these issues (and others) must be addressed with the urgency they deserve.This is not the time for our legislature to hunker down, do only the basics, and wait for the storm to pass. To the contrary, this is when we need them the most and I'm hopeful that leadership in the House and the Senate will, in fact, rise to the occasion."

Continuing to provide safe and reliable power is our priority. Our crews and contractors will practice social distancing on the job and there should be no interaction with the public. It's part of the critical work that continues, especially in advance of hurricane season, including tree trimming, replacement of equipment, and system resilience work that is difficult to reschedule."

How to use this map: Hold this map over your head so that the northern horizon points toward the north on the Earth. For best results, use a red flashlight to illuminate the map. If you are looking east, hold it in front of you so that east is on the bottom. For south views, south at the bottom, and for west, west at the bottom. Use this map at the times shown on in its upper left corner. Keep this page handy and show it to your keiki next month. They probably have bedtimes before the time of the chart shown here. The constellations are presented with their 3-letter abbreviations, their common names shown in the margins. This is done to take advantage of the truly dark skies Ka‘ū is blessed with when there is no bright moon and the skies are clear of vog. The star charts are produced from a sky Atlas program written by Jerry Hudson, who has given us permission to publish it. Thank you, Jerry. |
STARS OVER KA‘Ū - April 2020, by Lew & Donna Cook:
The Sun and Planets
The sun still has its low sunspot count, with low numbers of sunspots in March, continuing its period of few or no sunspots. To illustrate what the sun looks like when there are lots of spots, including a whopper of a spot, look at the picture here. The current solar image is essentially spot-free.
Venus is the "evening star", shining brilliantly in the west after sunset. It sets just before chart time (10 p.m. ). The cold gaseous (visible) planets rise between 3 and 4 hours after chart time. Jupiter will rise around 1 a.m. and Saturn rises around 1:30 a.m. Mars, a non-gaseous rocky globe, will rise a slight bit more than an hour after Jupiter, just past 2 a.m. The later risers are in Capricorn with Jupiter approaching the Sagittarius-Capricorn boundary.
Constellations and Deep Sky Objects
Betelgeuse, the star in the Orion's right shoulder (the red star further up) seems to have stopped its fading, so all may be well there. Betelgeuse is a variable star, but this is as faint as it has been in 170 years. Sometime in the future, Betelgeuse will explode as an extremely bright supernova, but it doesn't appear that this fading episode was all that out of the ordinary.

In the east, in the constellation Hydra (the Water Snake) and very near the border with Centaurus (the Centaur) is a beautiful spiral nebula, called the Southern Pinwheel Galaxy. It is a barred spiral galaxy, as is our home, the Milky Way Galaxy. It took many studies to discern that the Milky Way was a barred spiral galaxy, because we "couldn't see the forest for the trees." The Southern Pinwheel's location is shown on this month's star chart.
This galaxy is relatively close at 15 million light years distant. It has many star forming regions in it, like the Orion nebula. It is the prominent member of a group of galaxies, called the M83 group.
