Testifier: THANK YOU NATALIE IWASA FOR THE RECORD. I'M STILL OUT OF BRECT. EL A LOT OF TRAFFIC. OUT OF BREATH EARLY DID SUBMIT WRITTEN TESTIMONY. BUT IT WAS VERY LATE THIS MORNING. I DON'T KNOW WHAT HAPPENED TO IT. I DIDN'T GET A RECOGNITION FOR IT. I HAVE SEVERAL POINTS MANY REALLY FIRST OF ALL VERY DISAPPOINTED FRUSTRATED IN THIS PROCESS. I THINK THAT THER COMMITTEE REPORT IS NEEDS WORK. AND I'LL GO OVER MY SPECIFIC POINTS. FIRST OF ALL LATE TESTIMONY ON 26 COMMISSION. I KNOW COMMITTEE REPORTS 2021 THROUGH 2025. HOWEVER, THERE IS NOTHING IN THE CHARTER, NOTHING IN THE ORDINANCE THAT SAYS YOU CANNOT REVIEW THE CURRENT COMMISSION. THINK IT'S REALLY IMPORTANT FOR YOU TO DO SO TESTIMONIES 134EU9 SUBMITTED TO ONE COMMISSION MEETING SIX DAYS PRIOR THAT DIDN'T GET SUBMIT THE ON TIME. THAT IS WHY SHOULD PEOPLE EVEN BOTHER TESTIFYINGFUL THEIR TESTIMONY AREN'T GOING TO BE PROVIDED TO THE COMMISSION OR COMMITTEE. IN TIME FOR THE MEETING. SO I ASKED TO TAKE A LOOK AT THAT. I MENTIONED THAT AT THE APRIL COUNCIL MEETING AS WE. AND I DON'T KNOW IF ANY OF YOU HAVE DONE THAT. WE ARE OWED EXPLANATION AS TO WHY THAT HAPPENED. SECOND, FINDINGS, THE CHARTER SAYS THAT THE COMMISSION IS SUPPOSED TO LOOK AT VARIOUS THINGS SUCH AS UNION AGREEMENTS, THERE'S TALK ABOUT AVERAGES AND PERCENTAGES, NONE OF THAT EXCEPT FOR THE INCREASE IS IN THE FINDINGS. NOW, I CAN TELL YOU ALL OF THESE HE FOUND MULTIPLE MATH ERRORS. AND FOR THE COMMISSION NOT TO PROVIDE THEIR INFORMATION, PUBLIC CAN AT LEAST CHECK IT. IS BAD GOVERNMENT. I ASK THAT THAT BE REVISED. IN THE COMMITTEE REPORT, IT SAYS THAT THERE IS NO IT C.O.P.S. WAS INCURRED. COST. OR ASSOCIATED WITH HOLDING MEETING THAT IS INCORRECT WE ARE ALL KNOW THAT COUNCIL SERVICES PROVIDES STAFF

PERSON. THAT PERSON IS PAID. AND IF THAT STAFF PERSON WERE NOT THERE, THEY WOULD HAVE TO HIRE SOMEBODY. SO IN INCORRECTLY THERE IS SOME COST. INDIRECTLY. DISTANT INGENUOUS TO SAY THERE'S NO COST ASSOCIATED WITH THE COMMISSION. AND LASTLY, I DON'T KNOW WHAT HAPPENED. I SUBMITTED TESTIMONY TO THE BUDGET COMMITTEE. IT WAS NOT RECOGNIZED IN COMMITTEE REPORT. SO FIRST I HAVE THE SALARY COMMISSION. THEY DIDN'T GIVE THE TESTIMONY. IN TIME. I KNOW WHAT HAPPENED TO MY TESTIMONY. FOR THE BUDGET COMMITTEE MEETING. VERY FRUSTRATING PROCESS. I'M FINE. LAST NIGHT'S TESTIMONY WAS LATE. I GET IT. SOMETIMES THAT HAPPENS. BUT I THINK YOU REALLY NEED TO LOOK AT WHY THERE WERE SO MANY LATE TESTIMONIES AND HOW CAN WE IMPROVE THE PROCESS? AS YOU KNOW, PEOPLE ARE UPSET ABOUT ALL OF THESE INCREASES. AND IF THE COMMISSION ISN'T BEING TRANSPARENT, AND YOU'RE NOT DOING BETTER JOB AT MAKING THEIR WORK MAR TRANSPARENT, THEN IT ALL FALLS APART. IT'S NOT A CHECK THE BOX REVIEW. THAT YOU'RE DOING IN MY OPINION. THOSE WERE MY COMMENTS. THANK YOU CHAIR.

Chair Waters: THANK YOU. IN CLERK ANY OTHER TESTIFIERS? TTIM GARY.

Testifier: GOOD MORNING. TIM GARY, I AGREE WITH NATALIE. 1 UNHAD%. I TESTIFIED ON THAT BEFORE. 100%. I THINK YOU HAVE A LITTLE BIT OF PROBLEM OF READING THE ROOM. A LOT OF PEOPLE DON'T COME DOWN BUT THERE'S A LOT OF RESENTMENT OVER THIS. THEY'RE NOT ABLE TO A VOICE THEIR OPINION ABOUT IT. I UNDERSTAND BOTH SIDES. IT'S HARD TO RECRUIT PEOPLE IN AND THAT. BUT THE SUDDEN INFREQUENT INCREASES.

Testifier: A LOT OF PEOPLE. MAYBE ONE SOLUTION WOULD BE TIE IT TO THE SOCIAL SECURITY COST OF LIVING. I'M ON SOCIAL SECURITY. I GOT LIKE 2.7%. WHICH CAME OUT TO ABOUT $76 A MONTH. AND THEN MY MEDICARE WENT UP FORTY DOLLARS I ACTUALLY NETTED $36. A MONTH. AND SO THERE'S A LOT OF PEOPLE LIKE ME THAT RAT LUNGWORM RETIRED, AND WE GET A MANINI INCREASE FROM THE RIGHT HAND, AND THE LEFT HAND TAKES PART OF THAT INCREASE. AND THEN WE LOOK AT SALARIES GOING UP DRASTICALLY. YOU CAN UNDERSTAND THE FRUSTRATION ON PEOPLE. SO I DON'T KNOW WHAT THE SOLUTION IS. BUT I THINK THERE'S GOT TO BE A BETTER WAY. MAYBE IF YOU TIE IT TO WHAT IS THERE'S A LOT OF RETIRED PEOPLE. IF YOU GOT THE SAME INCREASE THAT HE ROA TIRED PEOPLE GOT, MAYBE THERE WOULDN'T BE SO MUCH BLOW-BACK. GOVERNMENT WORKERS ARE PUBLIC SERVANT. BUT A LOT OF THAT SERVANT END OF IT IS KIND OF LEFT OFF. REQUEST I RAN FOR OFFICE, I PROPOSED THAT I WOULD NOT TAKE ANY SALARY,. I WOULD DONATE MY ENTIRE SALARY. AND DO PUBLIC SERVICE. BOY, DID I GET A LOT OF BLOW-BACK. FROM POLITICIANS.

SAYING DON'T EVEN SAY THAT. THIS IS HOW WE MAKE OUR MONEY. JUST MY VIEWS. HOPE YOU CAN TAKE IT TO HEART. THERE'S GOT TO BE A BETTER WAY. THANK YOU. Chair Waters: THANK YOU TIM. MR.

Testifier: GOOD MORNING. I WORK FOR COMPANY CALLED SOLAR RAY. 51-YEAR-OLD HAWAII FOUNDED 100% EMPLOYEE OWNED, SPALL BUSINESS HERE IN HAWAII. WE ARE IN STRONG SUPPORT OF THIS RESOLUTION. AND PART OF REASON THAT WE WANTED TO EXIST SPRS OUR SPORE IS THAT OUR COMPANY IS THE ONLY HAWAII COMPANY TO RECEIVE A 48C TAX CREDIT SPECIFICALLY TO CONSTRUCT A SOLAR MODULE RECYCLING FACILITY. WE ARE CURRENTLY BUILDING IN KAPOLEI. THIS WILL SERVICE THE WHAT WE ESTIMATE TO BE CURRENTLY AROUND 5 AND 7 MILLION MODULES DEPLOYED ACROSS HAWAII. WE HAVE BEEN RUNNING A SOLAR MODULE RECYCLING PROGRAM THROUGH ANOTHER BUSINESS FOR A FEW YEARS. DIVERTED HUNDREDS OF TONS OF SOLAR MODULE WASTE. FROM LANDFILLS IN HAWAII. SO WE HOPE TO SERVICE HOPEFULLY 100% OF THE SOLAR MODULAR WASTE AND ANY OTHER WASTE CREATED BY CLEAN ENERGY PROJECTS IN THE STATE. AND MAKE HAWAII A CRITICAL MATERIALS PRODUCER. WE'RE REALLY EXCITED TO SEE THIS TASK FORCE AND WE WITH VERY MUCH STRONG SUPPORT AND EXCITED TO OPEN UP OUR FACILITIES AS WELL. THANK YOU FOR GIVING ME AN OPPORTUNITY TO TESTIFY.

Chair Waters: THANK YOU. MEMBERS, ANY QUESTIONS FOR THE TESTIFIER? SEEING NONE. ANYBODY ELSE LIKE TO TESTIFY ON RESOLUTION 26-7 CD1. SEEING NONE. WE'RE IN DISCUSSION. COUNCILMEMBER TUPOLA.

Councilmember Tupola: THANK YOU SO MUCH. TH THANK YOU FOR YOUR TESTIMONY. IN SUPPORT. I WANT TO THANK COMMITTEE CHAIR NISHIMOTO FOR HEARING THIS IN HIS COMMITTEE. I ALSO WANT TO THANK THE COMMIT U COMMUNITY MEMBERS WHO HAVE EXPRESSED SUPPORT MAYBE NOT EVERYONE IS ABLE TO BE HERE TODAY. BUT THIS RESOLUTION IS REALLY IMPORTANT IF WE WANT TO END LANDFILLS ON THE WEST SIDE. BECAUSE WE CAN'T JUSTEN ABOUT PROTESTING WE HAVE TO ACTUALLY WHAT WE'RE FOR AND WHAT WE WOULD LIKE TO PROPOSE. WE NEED TO KNOW WHAT STRATEGIES WE NEED TO HAVE, WHAT TYPE OF DIVERSION, WHAT TYPE OF RECYCLING SYSTEM, TO RECOVER USABLE MATERIALS AND TRANSITION AWAY FROM LANDFILL DEEMS. DEPENDENCE BEEN RELYING ON LANDFILLS LONGTERM SOLUTION POLICY FAYE OUR FAILURE. OCTOBER 2019, THE LAND USE COMMISSION APPROVED THE EXTENSION OF WAIMANALO GULCH WITH THE UNDERSTANDING THAT THE CITY WOULD TRAPS SIGNIFICANCE AWAY IN 2028. TRANSITION. THAT EXPECTATION. YET YEARS LATER NO COMPREHESS EVERYONE PLAN WAS WRITTEN. NO TECHNICAL ROADMAP FULL DEVELOPED NO LONGTERM PATH FORWARD PROPERLY FUND. IN STIND HE HAVE PREPARING FOR FUTURE WE DELAYED CONVERSION UNTIL ANOTHER COMMUNITY WAS PLACED ON MAP AS NEXT POSSIBLE LANDFILL SITE. LASTLY, HISTORY SHOWS EXACTLY WHY THIS RESOLUTION MATTERS. WAIMANALO GULCH WAS ACTUALLY SUPPOSED TO CLOSE ON MAY 1. 2008. HERE WE ARE IN 2026. AND THE SAME CONVERSATION IS STILL HAPPENING. BECAUSE NO LASTING PLAN WAS EVER CREATED. IN 2008, LATE SENIOR HANABUSA SUED CITY AND OVER SURROUNDING LANDFILL CONCERNS. AND I TRULY BELIEVE THAT SHE WOULD BE DEEPLY DISAPPOINTED TO SEE THE PEOPLE OF WEST SEATED STILL FIGHTING THE SAME BATTLE NEARLY TWO DECADES LATE YOU ARE. TODAY THIS RESOLUTION SIGNIFIES WE'RE DOING SOMETHING DIFFERENT. THIS TASK FORCE IS INTENDED TO BRING TOGETHER KNOWLEDGEABLE

EXPERTS INDUSTRY PROFESSIONALS, ENVIRONMENTAL VOICES, AND COMMUNITY STAKEHOLDERS TO CREATE REALISTIC AND TECHNICAL PATH TOWARDS THE ENDING LANDFILL DEPENDENCY ON OAHU. THIS IS NOT SYMBOL IBLGMENT BEGINNING OF ACTUAL PLANNING. I REPRESENT THE WEST SIDE. AND I WILL NOT STAND BY, AND ALLOW MAKAIWA HILLS TO BECOME TTHE NEXT LANDFILL SITE. I WILL OPPOSE IT BUT MY COMMITMENT IS NOT BILLION OPPOSITION. I SPENT YEARS TRAVELING RESEARCHING ED KATEING MYSELF ON WASTE SYSTEMS BURNERS DIVERSION TECHNOLOGIES, RECYCLING FACILITY, MATERIAL IT RECOVERY SYSTEMS AND LESSONS LEARNED FROM OTHER JURISDICTIONS. I BELIEVE OUR COMMUNITIES DESERVE REAL ANSWER NOT ANOTHER TEMPORARY EXTENSION AND NOT ANOTHER BROKEN PROMISE. SO I THINK MY COLLEAGUES AND YOURSELF CHAIR, THANK YOU FOR SUPPORTING MYSELF AND MY COMMUNITY. AND RESOLUTION 26-7, SOMETHING WE SHOULD HAVE STARTED YEARS AGO. THANK YOU.

Chair Waters: THANK YOU. ANY FURTHER DISCUSSION? MEMBERS? SORRY. WE'RE IN DISCUSSION. MEMBERS WITH YOUR INDULL JERN --INDULL JENLS. Councilmember Weyer: FOR SCULINGS DISCUSSION DID YOU WANT IT PUMP. Chair Waters: PLEASE PROCEED. WANT TO PUMP. JURISDICTION.

Testifier: THANK YOU CHAIR. THANK YOU COUNCILMEMBERS. I JUST WANTED TO SAY THAT DEPARTMENT OF ENVIRONMENT AT SERVICES WE ARE SUPPORT, OF THIS COMMITTEE. BUT IT IS VERY IMPORTANT THAT THIS EFFORT BEING IN PARALLEL WITH PURSUING NEW LANDFILL. WE ARE PUSHING UP AGAINST A LANDFILL CRISIS AND WE NEED TO CONTINUE TO MOVE FORWARD. TO GET NEW LANDFILL ACQUIRED. AND CONSTRUCTED. AND HAPPY TO ANSWER ANY QUESTIONS. THANK YOU. Chair Waters: MEMBERS QUESTIONS FOR THE DIRECTOR OF DEPARTMENT OF VICE ENTERPRISE SERVICES GO WITH COUNCILMEMBER WEYER FOLLOW BY COUNCILMEMBER TUPOLA.

Councilmember Tupola: THANK YOU CHAIR. APPRECIATE THE OPPORTUNITY BECAUSE I THINK THAT MIGHT UNDO WHY I WAS GOING TO VOTE WITH RESERVATIONS. BECAUSE I FULLY SPORT INTENT APPLAUD ADVOCACY OF COUNCILMEMBER TUPOLA, SUPPORTING ENVIRONMENTAL JUSTICE. SUPPORT THE INTENT I I THINK JUST WANTED TO, FLRS IT'SER THAT WE WILL UNDERSTAND WE WILL NEED SOME TYPE OF LANDFILL FOR EMERGENCY OPERATION RESPONSE. KONA LOW MADE THAT CLEAR. BEYOND THAT, HAVING THIS CONVERSATION WITH THE COMMUNITY, UNDERSTANDING THAT THERE'S ALREADY BEEN A LOT OF RESEARCH DUE DILIGENCE AND UNDERSTANDING, OF WHAT OPTIONS ARE ON THE TABLE, FEDERAL LAND IS MADE AVAILABLE, WE ALREADY KNOW BASED ON WHAT LAW IS, WHAT LAND COULD BE MADE AVAILABLE. IF WE PURSUE AVENUE. WE KNOW OTHER SITES ON OAHU. NOT JUST MY DISTRICT, MAYBE OTHER DISTRICTS, SPEAKING AS SOMEONE HAD THIS CONVERSATION WITH OUR COMMUNITY, AND SEEING RESOLUTION GOING 540 DAYS BEING TIMELINE TO GET THE REPORT, I'M JUST WONDERING IF WE COULD GET GREATER CLARITY FROM THE ADMINISTRATION NOW, MAYBE NOT TODAY, GOING THROUGH BUDGET, BUT AT LEAST I WANT OUR COMMUNITY TO FULLY UNDERSTAND WHAT OPTIONS ARE PRACTICE DLI ICALLY ON THE TABLE GIVEN ALL THE DATA WE ALREADY HAVE AND WE FLOW. PRACTICALLY, AS WE ALL SIT HERE HAVE THESE CONVERSATION, COMMUNITIES NOT POSITIONED TO PIECE IT ALL TOGETHER. LIKE WHY CENTRAL OAHU SITE TAKEN OFF AND THEN IF THE EXPANSION OR NEW LANDFILL I'LL SAY, NEW PROPERTY, OR ADJACENT, IS TAKEN OFLT TABLE, WHAT ALL AT ALL INTERN TIFs WHAT TYPE OF AMENDMENTS FOR THE STATE LAW WOULD BE NEEDED, GIVEN THE PRACTICAL LOCATIONS, DOES THAT MAKE SENSE?

I'M JUST KIND OF WANTED TMAKE SUREWE'RE HAVING THAT CONN SOONER THAN 540 DAYS. FOR OUR COMMUNITY. BUT DEFER TO FOLKS IN TERMS OF DISCUSSIONS THEY WANT TO HAVE IN THEIR DISTRICT.

Testifier: THAT MAKES SENSE. ABSOLUTELY RIGHT. WE DO NEED A LANDFILL. WE'RE NOT IN A POSITION TO TODAY TO NOT HAVE A LANDFILL. TECHNOLOGIES E&V LOOKED INTO DIFFERENT TECHNOLOGIES. AND SCALABILITY IS NOT THERE RIGHT NOW. SO WE DO HAVE ON OUR WEBSITE, TEA DETAILED INFORMATION ON HOW WE ARRIVED AT THE MAKAIWA HILLS SITES. AS FAR AS MAKAPU SITES LO LOOKED WHAT IS LEFT. BUT WE'RE WILLING TO CONTINUE THAT DISCUSSION. AND CONTINUE TO ENGAGE THE COMMUNITY. BUT THIS HAS TO PUSH FORWARD. WE CANNOT DEFER MOVING FORWARD ON A NEW LANDFILL.

Councilmember Weyer: APPRECIATE THAT. WRAP UP I KNOW THERE'S OTHER QUESTIONS. I MEAN, CAN YOU JUST GIVE US THE OTHER SITES THAT WOULD BE CONSIDERED? IF WE HAD MOVE BEYOND THAT AND WHAT LIKE, CONCISELY. THREE, FOUR OR FIVE AND LIKE WHAT CHALLENGES THERE WOULD BE THAT.

Testifier: YEAH. LEGALLY, WITH THE NO PASS LINE, FOR THE UIC LINE, EXCUSE ME, THAT TOOK THE WAHIAWA SITE OFF THE TABLE. ER AND I BELIEVE THAT THAT SEA A REALLY OPTIMAL SITE FOR OUR OPERATIONS. AND WHAT WE NEED TO DO OUT THERE. SO THE LAW NEED TO CHANGE. THERE ARE OTHER SITES. BUT. Councilmember Weyer: WHAT WERE THOSE? Testifier: I HAVE TO LOOK RIGHT NOW. Councilmember Weyer: IT'S IN THE REPORT. YOU DO DON'T REMEMBER. Testifier: YEAH. Councilmember Weyer: DON'T WANT TO PUT YOU ON THE SPOT. Testifier: I'LL DEFER.

Councilmember Weyer: AREA COUNCILMEMBER HAS MORE QUESTIONS MY SIDE, JUST SAYING I THINK THERE'S VALUE IN JUST HAVING A VERY OPEN PUBLIC DISCUSSION ABOUT THIS. ABOUT WHAT IS ON THE TABLE. BECAUSE I KNOW THAT ASK FOR THEY WANT THE FUNDS IN THE CIP BUDGET. CUSTOMER TUPOLA BEING AFTER THE FOR THE COMMUNITIES. I THINK AT THE BROADER LEVEL, WE JUST NEED TO BE TRANSPARENT ABOUT ALL THE DIFFERENT OPTIONS. AND JUST BE LIKE, HEY, THIS IS THE CHALLENGE IS HERE, THERE. MAYBE SAYING WE WANT TO TWO BACK TO AQUIFER AG LAND. MAYBE OTHER FOLKS ARE GOING TO SAY, OTHER LOCATIONS. BUT I'LL JUST A THAT. BUT APPRECIATE ALL OF YOUR WORK. THANK YOU CHAIR. Chair Waters: THANK YOU. COUNCILMEMBER TUPOLA.

Councilmember Tupola: HI. ALOHA DEPUTY. FIRST OFF WANTED TO SAY THANK YOU. DURING THE KONA LOW STORMS SO VERY RESPONSIVE TO ME. I DON'T WANT TO THEM GLEEK THE FACT THAT YOU HAVE BEEN GREAT PARTNER TO ME. TO MY COMMUNITY. SO THANK YOU. SECONDLY, I THINK IT'S FINE THAT YOU GUYS HAVE THE POSITION YOU HAVE. THIS TASK FORCE IS ABOUT GETTING US TO NO LANDFILLS. I WILL TELL YOU THAT WHERE I VISITED IN CHINA, THEY STOPPED LANDFILLS IN 2009. THERE ARE COUNTRIES THAT HAVE SHOWED ME EVEN HAD A MEETING WITH THEIR CITY AND OUR SIT OFFICIAL. YOU WEREN'T IN THE MEETING. BUT THE DIRECTOR WAS. LONG STORY SHORT, WHETHER WE AGREE OR DON'T AGREE, AFTER WE FINISH THIS LAND FILL, TASK FORCE, WE SHALL SEE WHERE ALL THE CHIPS LAND. I DO THINK THAT'S IMPORTANT FOR US TO HAVE TECHNICAL REPORT. BECAUSE AS WE SPEAK, ABOUT THE DIFFERENT AREAS, JUST LIKER COUNCILMEMBER WEYER SAID, WHAT LOCATIONS WHAT REASONS, WHAT LAWS NEED TO BE AMENDED NOTHING HAS BEEN WRITTEN TESTIMONY. NOT ONE REPORT. SER WANT THERE TO BE SAY FOR EXAMPLE AN AMENDMENT TO ACT 73, WE SHOULD WRITE IT OUT AND SAY THIS IS REASON WHY IT SHOULD BE AMENDED AND AREA WARRIOR LEAKING AT. RIGHT NOW, THE PATH THAT WE'RE ON IS PRETTY HAPPEN HAZARD. WE'RE LOOKING AT. PICKING SITE SUCH AS MAKAIWA HILLS NOT ANY OF THE LANDFILL ADVISORY COMMISSION, SITES TO LOOK AT. IT WAS ONE THAT WAS PROBABLY 20 YEARS AGO. WE DIDN'T JUST BRING THAT UP OUT OF NOWHERE. YOU WERE AT COMMUNITY MEETING LAST FRIDAY. MY DISTRICT. I THANK YOU FOR BEING THERE. YOU CAN SEE HOW AGITATED COMMUNITY IS BECAUSE NOTHING WAS WRITTEN THERE IS NO PLAN. SO I THANK YOU FOR YOUR SUPPORT OF THIS REIS RESOLUTION TELLING YOU AND EVERYONE LISTENING WE NEED TO MAKE A WRITTEN PLAN PERIOD. WHETHER YOU AGREE THAT LANDFILLS CAN END OR NOT, WE NEED TO MAKE A PATH FORWARD. BECAUSE LONGEVITY OF THIS PARTICULAR LANDFILL, ONE THAT WE'RE UTILIZING RIGHT NOW, IN

WAIMANALO GULCH, COULD POSSIBLY BE EXTENDED IF WE MAKE THE RIGHT I GUESS IMPROVEMENTS FOR HPOWER OR WE AQUIRE THE PROPERTY NEXTDOOR AND DO THE MARK. SO MANY POSSIBILITIES. BUT I WILL SAY THAT WE SHOULDN'T HAVE ANY MORE CONVERSATIONS IN PUBLIC ABOUT IT, UNLESS THERE IS SOMETHING THAT THE PUBLIC CAN FOLLOW THAT MAKES SENSE AS TO HOW WE'RE GOING TO DEE DECREASE OUR LANDFILL DEPENDENCY. AND I DO LOOK FORWARD TO THE REPORT BEING THE GUIDING DOCUMENT. SO WE CAN MOVE FORWARD TO GO. WE DON'T WANT YOU GUYS MOVING FORWARD AND THEN WAHIAWA THIS DISAGREES. WAIANAE DISAGREES. MAKE A PLAN WRITTEN TO MOVE ALL OF OUR COMMUNITIES FORWARD AND ISLAND FORWARD TOGETHER. THANK YOU FOR BEING HERE. Chair Waters: THANK YOU FURTHER DISCUSSION?

Councilmember Kia'aina: WASN'T AMEN MEANING TO SPEAK. SINCE THERE'S A LOT OF TIMES LOG ON THIS DIALOGUE. WANT TO SAY THAT, YOU WISE. BEING VERY MEASURED. ABOUT TALKING ABOUT THE PREVIOUS LOCATION. BECAUSE I READ ALL THE DO.S. AND A LOT OF THOSE LOCATIONS WERE NOT PROPERLY VETTED. INCLUDING THOSE THAT WERE IDENTIFIED ON THE WINDWARD SIDE. SO THAT I DON'T THINK IT'S PPRUDENT. DO IT SHOULD BE DONE IN A FASHION THAT YOU INFORM PEOPLE, THAT WE WEREN'T PROPERLY VETTED BECAUSE I WENT TO WITH THE DIRECTOR WITH COMMUNITY MEMBERS, AND WINDWARD SIDE. TO IDENTIFY PROPERTIES ON THE WINDWARD SIDE. AND A LOT OF THEM WERE RIDICULOUS. SO JUST THANK YOU FOR THAT. AND FOR THOSE OF YOU INTERESTED I DID DO A WHITE PAPER ON OAHU'S LANDFILL HISTORY. AND IT IS AVAILABLE ON MY WEBSITE. I NEED TO UPDATE IT IN LIGHT OF THIS RECENT LEGISLATIVE SESSION. BUT IT WAS UPDATED THROUGH LAST YEAR. SO I BELIEVE IT WAS AUGUST 2025. BUT IT'S VERY INFORMATIONAL. LOOK AT THE WINDWARD SIDE, ALL OF THE PROPOSED SITES, AS WELL AS HISTORY, I ACTUALLY DID A SURVEY OF LANDFILL HISTORY ON HOLING IN GENERAL. SO THANK YOU.

Chair Waters: THANK YOU. MEMBERS ANY DISCUSSION? COUNCILMEMBER TUPOLA. FOLLOWED BY COUNCILMEMBER DOS SANTOS-TAM.

Councilmember Tupola: THANK YOU. I'M IN SUPPORT OF RESOLUTION 26-9 5. THIS MIGHT SEEM UNRELATED BUT ACTUALLY VERY RELATED. TO WHAT'S GOING ON WITH LANDFILL. THIS IS GOING TO ALLOW FOR THE CITY TO BE ABLE TO DO SOME OF OPERATIONS WE DO AT HPOWER IN NEIGHBORING PROPERTY NEXTDOOR. WHICH THEY'RE SEEKING IS TO ACQUIRE. ONE OF THE MAIN THINGS WE NEED NO CITY & COUNTY OF HONOLULU IS A MRF MATERIALS RECYCLING FACILITY. ACCORDING TO THE CITY WASTEWATER STUDY AND AUDIT ITS MORE THAN 227,000 TONS OF RECYCLABLE AND RECOVERABLE MATERIALS, ARE STILL IN OUR WASTE SYSTEM. INCLUDING PAPER PLASTICS METALS GLASS AND GREEN GREEN WASTE. FOOD ORGANIC WASTE ALONE REPRESENT ONE-THIRD OF CURRENTLY THROW AWAY. THAT MEANS THAT WE ARE STILL IT SENDING ENORMOUS AMOUNT OF RECOVERABLE MATERIALS TO HPOWER AND ULTIMATELY, INTO THE LANDFILL. INSTEAD OF RECOVERING ITS VALUE FIRST. THE IMPORTANT FOR US TO UNDERSTAND THAT MATERIALS RECYCLING FACILITIES ARE VERY COMMON AROUND THE WORLD. TO IS WHAT YOU DO PRIOR TO PUTTING IT INTO INSEN RESERVATION. EL HPOWER PO HE PROCESSES 650,000 TO 750,000 TONS OF WASTE ANNUALLY. INCINERATION R NEARLY EVERYTHING CENTERS SYSTEM GETS BURNED. BUT WHEN PROHI NOW AND PROBLEM ATTIC MATERIALS ENTER THE BURNERS RELATIONSHIP SYSTEMS CAN GO DOWN FOR HOURS AS E'O AT A TIME. WHICH ACTUALLY FORCES THEM TO DIVERTER TRASH STRAIGHT INTO THE LAND FILL. WE HAVE THREE BURNS. TWO ARE FROM 1990. ONE IS FROM 2012. TREE TRUNK, JET SKI, ANYTHING THAT IS NOT SUPPOSED TO BE IN THERE ENDS UP IN THERE BURN YOU AVES GO DOWN ALL TRASH GOES TO THE LAND FILL. BURNS GO DOWN. MAKE SURE RESO-CALLEL THESE TEARS AND TAKAI THEM OUT OF WASTE DREAM STREAM. RECYCLE MATERIAL HE IS. 'LONG ATE WAS THE LIFE WHATEVER WE NEED TO DO AT THE WAIKIKI BEACH AND HELP US TO MOVE TOWARDS NO LANDFILLS ON OAHU. MIWAIMANALO GULCH.THANK E&V FOR.

Vice Chair Dos Santos Tam: I DO HAVE A GO FOER YOU. DEPUTY DIRECTOR HERE. I HOPE YOU'LL BE ABLE TO ANSWER SOME QUESTIONS. RESOLUTION ASSERTS THAT THIS PLAN WILL REDUCE THE AMOUNT OF MINUS PAL SOLID WASTE GOING TO WAIMANALO GULCH SANITARY LANDFILL AND EXTENDING USEFUL LIFE DO WE HAVE ANY QUANTIFIABLE AMOUNTS AND ESTIMATE OF HOW MUCH WOULD BE REDUCED AND ALSO HOW MUCH LONGERS THERE WOULD ALLOW THE LANDFILL TO EXIST. THANK YOU FOR THE QUESTION. SO WE ARE GOING TO BE LOOKING AT C AND DVMENTD WASTE, CONSTRUCTION DEMOLITION WASTE, FOR WHEN PVT EVENTUALLY CLOSES, WE ARE GOING TO BE LOOKING AT PERHAPS PILOTING DIFFERENT TECHNOLOGIES, ON THIS SITE. AND LOOKING AT DIFFERENT WAYS WE CAN SOURCE AND PROCESS WASTE. I DON'T HAVE AN EXACT FIGURE ON THAT. NUMBERS WITH ME RIGHT NOW. EL TAM TESTAMENT THE RESOLUTION ALSO TALKS ABOUT HOW THE PROJECT WILL INCLUDE A BOILER REPLACEMENT AT HPOWER. DOES THAT REPLACEMENT WILL THAT REPLACEMENT MEAN THAT HPOWER WILL CONTINUE TO PRODUCE ASH THAT NEEDS TO GO SOMEWHERE?

Testifier: YES. THAT'S SOMETHING THAT WE ARE LOOKING AT. EVENTUALLY, THE WE WILL NEED REPLACEMENT FOR THE RDF, SIDE. OF HPOWER. SO WE ARE WORKING ON REFURBISHING AND KEEPING THOSE BOILERS GOING STRONG. BUT THIS SITE WILL EVENT I WILL BE THE SITE FOR RE HE REPLACEMENT AND I THINK WE ARE STILL OPEN ON TECHNOLOGY, AND THERE CAN BE IT ADVANCEMENTS WHILE WE LOOK AND PLAN. AND WE ARE OPEN TO DISCUSS ON THAT. BUT THAT'S DOWN THE ROAD.

Vice Chair Dos Santos Tam: WHATEVER NEW TECHNOLOGY IS PLANNED AT SOME FUTURE DATE, IS THRL PIM SYMBOL NOW MODIFIED TO SW/M GOING TO BE BROAD ENOUGH TO COVER THAT OR WE HAVE TO COME BACK IF WE CHOOSE SOME OTHER KIND OF TECHNOLOGY TO MODIFY SYMBOL? Testifier: I BELIEVE THAT SHOULD BE BROAD ENOUGH TO COVER. Chair Waters: THANK YOU. Vice Chair Dos Santos Tam: THANK YOU. Chair Waters: FOLLOW-UP QUESTIONS FOR E&V? Councilmember Kia'aina: NO. I JUST HAD COMMENTS. WAIT TO DISCUSS. EL. Chair Waters: QUICK QUESTION. WHAT EFFORTS E&V MAKING TO UTILIZE THE ASH INLD STEPH BEAR BURYING IT. INSTEEVED BURYING IT.

Testifier: THANK YOU FOR THE QUESTION. INSTEAD OF LOOKING AT, ASH RECYCLING BEING ABLE TO PUT ASH IN PERHAPS ROADWAY MATERIALS. WE CURRENTLY WORKING WITH THE REGULATORS ON THAT. AND TESTING AND STUDYING ASH THAT THERE ARE CONCERNS. WITH PFAS, AND WE'RE GOING TO HAVE TO FIGURE OUT HOW WE GET OVER THAT HURDLE. Chair Cordero: THANK YOU SO MUCH. EL COUNCILMEMBER WEYER.

Councilmember Weyer: THANK YOU CHAIR. DO YOU KNOW I'M JUST CURIOUS, WHAT KIND OF TIMELINE IS ON THAT. BECAUSE I IDEALLY, WE COULD DO THE PFAS ISSUE ON THE COMPOSTING. MORE STUFF GOES OVER THERE. WE DIVERT MORE RECALL IN THE AMOUNT OF ASH WE CREATE IS LESS. RECYCLE AS MUCH ASH AS WE CAN. ALL OF THE PLANS THAT DO BURNING ON NEIGHBOR ISLANDS IS FALLEN THROUGH. LIKE I DON'T KNOW IF WE'RE GOING IT G GET TO SUCH A SMALL INPUT ON OUR SIDE. THAT WE COULD THEORETICALLY LIKE TAKE OTHER INPUT FROM OTHER COUNTIES AND THEN USE THAT TO MAKE CONSTRUCTION MATEMATERIALS DO THE GLASS RECYE TO GO TURN IT INTO SAND FOR LIKE BEACH REPLENISHMENT. JUST IDEAS KIND OF CAME UP RECENT ORIGINAL CONFERENCE. CURIOUS, WHAT IS KIND OF THE TIME LINE IN TERMS OF ACTUAL ASH RECYCLING PLAN. IDENTIFYING HOW WE'RE GOING TO BE REDO YOU GO WHAT IS GOING INTO HPOWER. AND ALL OF THAT. SO WE ARE WORKING ON TESTING ASH AND GATHERING MORE DATA. BUT UNTIL WE HAVE A PERMIT, YOU KNOW WE CANT REALLY PROCEED THROUGH DESIGN. AND IMPLEMENTATION. SO THAT IS REALLY WHAT WE'RE FOCUSING ON RIGHT NOW. IS BEING ABLE TO OBTAIN A PERMIT.

Councilmember Weyer: MAYBE COUPLE YEARS LIKE TEN YEARS? Testifier: IT'S HARD TO SAY. ONCE WE OBTAIN A PERMIT, IT COULD BE ABOUT 8 YEARS. 6 TO 8 YEARS. EL. Councilmember Weyer: OKAY. THANK YOU. THANK YOU CHAIR.
