Chapter Reports: Hawaii

The fast pace of development on the Big Island continues to be of great concern. The strain on resources, the need for better services, and the desire to preserve the environment have together been a focus of our activities.

At our January meeting, Carolyn Stewart of Marine and Coastal Solutions International gave a talk on wastewater management. All in all, this was a very informative and well received talk.

On March 15, we will host a panel discussion for Sunshine Week. It is described elsewhere in this issue.

Marianna Scheffer,
President
