DLNR TO HOST COMMUNITY MEETING ON THE DRAFT TANTALUS-ROUND TOP DRIVE CORRIDOR MANAGEMENT PLAN

(Honolulu)-The DLNR Division of Forestry and Wildlife (DOFAW) has scheduled an open meeting to discuss the recently issued draft of its Tantalus-Round Top Drive Corridor Management Plan (“Draft TRTD-CMP”). The Draft TRTD-CMP identifies management issues in the area and recommends actions that should be undertaken to maintain and enhance the corridor. This plan has been prepared in collaboration with other State agencies, the City and County of Honolulu, stakeholder organizations, and many interested people.

The meeting is structured in a way that is intended to allow attendees to interact with agency personnel, consultants, and other interested parties in the most productive way. In addition to a PowerPoint presentation that summarizes the most important aspects of the plan, the meeting space will be arranged so that people will be able to speak directly with the individuals responsible for the plan’s development and implementation. Attendees will also be able to provide written comments that are reviewed and considered before a final plan is produced.

The meeting will be held on Wednesday, May 8, 2019 from 5:30pm-7:30pm at: the Board of Land and Natural Resources, Room 132 on the first floor of the Kalanimoku Building, 1151 Punchbowl Street in Honolulu.

Metered public parking is available in the basement of the building and is accessible from Punchbowl Street.  If you have any questions about the meeting, you may contact Planning Solutions by phone at (808) 550-4538.
