Aloha, and common sense ruled the early morning of October 16th 2013 at 3:35:00 AM. A long battle through the night with no blood drawn; and last words spoken by the Kaua'i County Council Chair Jay Furfaro in regards to Bill 2491. Passed with surprise in the crowds of people inside and outside, as it happened quickly, after a toe-to-toe over deferment (again).
Stripping the bill: buffers to 100' from the original 500'
and a change to any kind GMO- no need tell what kind..but they need to tell if the field is GMO.
It is possible that the word pesticide in the bill defined as any, even an organic pesticide over a certain limit of usage might be applied to BT, or Agent Orange resistant plant types, and reported.
The Mayor has 9 months to implement. Mayor Carvalho wasn't liking any of it...But pleasantly agreed to his duty of office, and plans on running for re-election...
The bill originally had an Environmental and Public Health Information Survey (EPHIS) attached with a Moratorium to shut the poisoners down until done and acted upon. This was not the case as this was switched to EPHIS with no Moratorium.
The biggest, and best part will be the disclosures of types of pesticides. They are using experimental poisons...and well known ones that we know cause birth defects like Agent Orange...
WHY IS THIS SO IMPORTANT?
Babies were statistically proven last night before all;
that Kaua'i has 10xs the birth defect rate for heart deformities on their small island...
The disclosures will help pinpoint the facts for the EPHIS. Because the reports have something about the year before, we may be able to clarify this to get the information from last year, and this will speed the URGENT study...
The worst part is the OCEAN BARRIERS (buffer) to keep the pirates off our shoreline were not included....
The ocean is being severely affected...The EPHIS will answer to this tragedy that continues, as does the daily poisoning of all who call Kaua'i home, or visit...
GET IT DONE!
So, with a ball and chain around their thick necks, the captured Pirates are expected to start talking...and soon... we will have our treasure back...Our health, and the A'ina...Spirit of the Land.
Maui Aloha nui Kaua'i

last verse
Puana `ia no ke ehu o ke kai
Ia hanu `a`ala o ke aumoe
Moe a`e ke ala e `alo ai
E ho`olale mau nei
The spray of the sea recounts the story
That perfumed murmur of the deep of night
The pathway lies before us that we tread
Beckoning us ever forward
Gary Hooser, one of the council members who introduced the bill, called it “a piece of precedent-setting county legislation, certainly in our state.” He said he did not think the companies would sue, though they might try to override the county through state legislation.
“For some of the largest chemical companies in the world to sue a tropical paradise for the right to spray pesticides next to schools will not play well in the court of public opinion,” he said.
