Kahookipa makes the statement, “…PrincessPauahi in her personal monies cannot even provide for Native Hawaiianprograms, the school that she provided for. She cannot even do that now. Thatsame federal government is fighting us and telling us we cannot do that withsomebody's personal money. But yet you guys are a federal agency saying youguys going to come to Maui and give us this program.”XNoneNoneMr. Dick MayerMr. Mayer is the Vice-President of the Kula Community Association and in hispersonal testimony he explains that misleading info was given during the scopingmeetings, and that the public was lead to believe ATST would be 92 feet highrather that the current 143 ft height.Feels a master plan that includes the landowners at the summit, Hawaiians andother community members’ needs to be drafted.XXLocate ATST ata lower elevationon Haleakalā.“…looking atother sites on topof the mountainmaybe a mileaway from thesummit threequartersof amile away,further to thesouth, maybedropping it todown to 9,800feet so itwouldn't stickabove the top ofthe mountainAPPENDIX F (2): Supplemental Cultural Impact Assessment For the Proposed AdvancedTechnology Solar Telescope (ATST) at Haleakalā High Altitude ObservatoriesTMK (2) 2-2-07:00871
Cultural Surveys Hawai‘i Job Code: HALEA 2 Scoping Meetings and Section 106 TestimonyAgency/IndividualSummary of View and Cultural ConcernsNoActionMitigationSuggestionsForATSTNotStatedMitigationCommentsMr. MichaelHowdenMr. Howden is from Kula and is a haumana with Papa Henry Auwai. He statesthat Pu‘u Kolekole is a sacred “place of prayer and inner attunement.” “I find thisincredible that this European scientific mindset would want to impose upon asacred landscape what can only be considered in spiritual terms really amonstrosity. This is a place of prayer. It's a place sacred for ceremony. And Ithink at some point, this madness toward building and accumulation and thecarelessness with which this is approached in terms of imposing on thislandscape something that would be not only cultural desecration, but an aestheticand spiritual desecration.”XNoneNoneMr. RizzoMr. Rizzo has accompanied hundreds of school kids on field trips to Haleakalā,“But what I have seen many, many times are just a small group of these childrenthat are very excited and just really in awe of what's going on up there at thedifferent facilities. And I just think it's an important thing. I believe that this is agreat opportunity”“It's opportunity knocking at the door to have a facility like this. Howappropriate, a solar observatory state-of-the-art up at the house of the sun.” Mr.Rizzo asks how much of the mountain is sacred.X X“If it could go upin an area aroundthe summit thatis respectful tothe Hawaiianpeople…I thinkthat would be agreat thing foreverybody.”Mr. Shibuya serves on Maui’s General Plan Advisory Committee. The followinglist of mitigation suggestions made up Mr. Shibuya’s comments:1) Contribute to and subscribe to a work force development program...2)Employ Maui residents as much as possible and develop ATST work force to aclose working relationshipMr. WarrenShibuya3). Establish a Maui solar and Hawaiian Cultural Center featuring staffmultimedia facilities and systems to share information, educate and ignite thepassion and encourage Maui students getting needed skills and seek ATSTemployment4) ATST adopt and enter in written contract a sunset for the ATST structure andprogram. Suggest at least four cycles with each cycle is 23.5 years each cycle fora total of approximately 90 years.
