The Hawaiian community in Anahola rejected the Anahola Renewable Energy proposal to terun 2000 acres of Hawaiian Homelands forest into a fuel farm business. Burning wood for energy on a small tropical sounds like a replay for Rapanui (easter Island).
The only EA for this project considered fuelstock from Koloa only. Not harvesting, trucking and replanting albizia and eucalyptus next to our forests, from multiple sites, including Anahola Hawaiian Homelands. The EA minimizes water use and impacts.
Jobie K. Masagatani, Chairman Hawaiian Homes Commission, has made a tactical retreat for the Anahola community with this letter sent via mail and email to the people who attended either the March 8th Beneficiary Consultation meeting and/or one of the Public Hearings held on March 14th and 15th.
Please note that the decision-making meeting tentatively scheduled for April 9th has been postponed. You can still send in comments to this email address up until April 8th at this address:
