Important Reminder:

The DLNR’s Maui Public Listening Sessions are scheduled for Saturday, September 17, 2011. We would like to encourage community members to attend the meeting and tell DLNR that you support Maui Nui being chosen as the start up site for DOCARE’s fisheries enforcement’s pilot project (funded by Conservation International and Castle Foundation). Maui’s hard working DOCARE officers can pave the way for additional monies to be added for Kauai and Hawaii Island for this important program.

Mahalo!
