Aloha,

I do not support concluding this process by Dec. 2020.

I support Shane Sinenci’s perspective. WE NEED 6 MORE MONTHS.

This Plan, now that it is updated with the new data, needs to go back to the Kanaka (the ones that are most directly affected
by the WUDP) and get their input and support. We need 6 more months to make this happen and for it to be Pono.

The fact that the Haiku and East Maui community, who is most effected by the end results of the WUDP as it relates to East Maui,
were not included in the first many years of discussion, is the reason for this delay.

It was an intentional oversight not to include us because the folks developing this plan did not want to have to deal with the well informed and
passionate folks of Haiku and East Maui regarding the plan…. but they could not get around it since the water that is at stake
here is primarily from East Maui.

This plan needs to go back to committee and the Kanaka of East Maui need to have a chance to contribute their input,
now that the updated scientific data is included in the plan.

Thank you very much.
