More tidbits...Possible new DLNR natural resource enforcement
I am putting these posts up in no particular order. The subject of this post is actually turning out to be the most noticeable problem with this project. Regarding DLNR's enforcement capabilities over indiscriminate harvesting and transport of natural resources, Christie Wilson wrote a good article a few weeks ago about this with interesting public comments: http://www.honoluluadvertiser.com/apps/pbcs.dll/article?AID=/20080615/NE...

This issue has also been mentioned in the OTF Reports relative to the ferry at:
OTF REPORT - 05.23.08.pdf See DOCARE Update p. 4, also see 'Attachment H' pp. 76-77
OTF REPORT - 04.28.08.pdf See Prosecutor's Office Update p. 4

On July 3rd the DLNR put this release out and it showed up in part in papers yesterday:
