How do we incentivize them to work with all of you to protect our watersheds?
do you think that the state's goal of protecting 30 percent of Hawaii's priority watersheds by 2030 is adequate and achievable?
In line with that comment we have huge infrastructure needs throughout our country to the tune of trillions. We need to address those.
Unfortunately, Hawaii is not eligible for many of these programs because Hawaii is not a traditional Reclamation state.
I know Senator Gabbard, for instance, and Rep. Yamane are very keenly aware of the water conservation side of the equation.
I very much welcome the opportunity for Members of the Administration to come to Hawaii and to see that Hawaii is much more than a tourism and military place, important as those activities are to the State of Hawaii.
