Episode 19 - Carl Jellings from Jo Jordan on Vimeo.
On the next episode of "Jordan’s Jordan", the Representative
will sit down with Wai’anae fisherman Carl Jellings Sr. to talk about ocean
resources management on the Wai’anae coast and the impacts of commercial
tourism on the fishing industry. Jellings has been fishing on the Wai’anae
coast since the 60’s and has been a licensed fisherman since 1978. For years he has dedicated his time to finding ways for commercial tourism boats
and fishermen to coexist.
Jordan
and Jellings also discussed House Bill 2682, which is awaiting the Governor’s
signature. Introduced by Rep. Jordan, the bill would authorize the Department
of Land and Natural Resources to regulate the commercial activities that
operate out of private marinas and use state waters or marine resources. Currently
DLNR can only regulate the number of permits for commercial activities in state
run harbors and marinas.
You can also catch the next airing of the
show on Monday, June 25, 2012, 1 p.m. on ‘Olelo 54. Also, don’t forget to “like”
