Active shooter presentation planned
The Hawaii Police Department invites the public to an “active shooter” presentation from noon to 2 p.m. Tuesday in the Humanities Room at the Laupahoehoe Community Library. It is designed to help individuals increase their survivability should they encounter an active shooter or other type of active violent incident.
Police will provide information on previous incidents of mass violence, recent events, best practices for those caught in such situations, law enforcement’s response, and how to work together as a community toward prevention. They will also provide additional resources for participants so they can continue their education on this topic, followed by a question-and answer segment.
Two presenters scheduled at West Hawaii Fishery Council meeting
The West Hawaii Fishery Council will hold its monthly meeting from 6:30 to 8:30 p.m. Thursday at the West Hawaii Civic Center Community Hale meeting room.
Eva Schemmel will present goals and preliminary results from the Hawaiian Moon Calendar Project, which emphasizes community fisheries monitoring and stewardship through training communities and fishermen to record information on fishing effort, catch, and spawning seasons of harvested reef fishes. Schemmel is a graduate student in the Fisheries Ecology Research Lab at University of Hawaii at Manoa.
Mary Donovan will present the results of a study in the Caribbean titled “Status and Trends of Caribbean Coral Reefs: 1970-2012.” The study’s highlights include the importance of a historical perspective for understanding change in coral reef environments, and the implications for protecting herbivorous fishes in preventing declines in coral cover. Donovan is a graduate student at UH Manoa and was an editor of the study.
