Protect Mauna Kea

In the 1960s, Hawai'i agreed to share two of our highest and most sacred mountaintops with a small community of astronomers.

Mar 23, 2023

This Friday, BLNR plans to deny Laulani Teale's request for a contested case hearing on the "supplement" to the (awful) Comprehensive Management Plan (we'll call it CMP-S). This means the CMP-S will be implemented without any real review by those committed to protecting the sacred summit of Mauna Kea.
