These magnificent mammals are not only massive — weighing in at up to 40 tons each — but they’re pretty mysterious, as well. “There’s so much we don’t know about these amazing animals,” explains Meagan Jones, Ph.D., executive director of Whale Trust Maui, a nonprofit organization dedicated to supporting, conducting and sharing humpback whale research. “We’ve never seen them give birth. We’ve never seen them mate. We don’t even know why they need to migrate to Hawai‘i.” Curious humpback whale off the coast of Maui, Hawaiʻi.

Photo Credit: Flip Nicklin/Minden Pictures - Photo obtained under NMFS Permit #753 She says that a big part of her organization’s research involves trying to discover why whales sing. “It’s such a complex communication system, and we don’t know what it means.” It was once believed that the songs were part of the whales’ courting ritual, but Meagan says that recent research has found that it’s only the males who sing and that they attract other males with their songs. “That has changed the focus of our research.” Naturally, scientific research requires funding, so each year, Whale Trust Maui hosts a four-day educational and fundraising event titled Whale Tales to support the mission of Whale Trust Maui and give the public an opportunity to interact with world-renowned experts on whale research. The 9th annual Whale Tales event will take place on February 13-16, 2015 and will highlight the role Issue 13 I 7 Humpback whale breaching off the coast of Maui, Hawaiʻi. Photo Credit: Flip Nicklin/Minden Pictures - Photo obtained under research permit #13846 that technology, such as satellite tracking, plays in advancing whale research. All profits generated by the event will go toward whale research in Hawai‘i. Since its inception, Whale Tales has raised over $360,000 for this cause. Whale Tales will kick off on Friday with a reception in Lahaina followed by a video presentation under the stars by National Geographic photographer Flip Nicklin and cinematographer Jason Sturgis. On Saturday and Sunday there will be free presentations at The Maui Theatre, and a new IMAX movie titled Humpback Whales 3D will also make its Hawai‘i debut that weekend. “The footage I’ve seen is absolutely spectacular,” Meagan says. “A lot of the film is about what’s happening here in Maui.” Guided whale watching excursions will also be offered throughout the four-day event. “A lot of the local whale watch companies here donate their boats for the weekend,” Meagan explains. ”We really like to get people out there so they can experience the whales. Each of the tours has one of the presenters on board, so people have a way to engage with one of the experts in a very personal kind of way.” On Friday morning, there will be a special photo expedition led by National Geographic photographers, and Monday‘s VIP whale watch excursion will include pupus and cocktails and all of the Whale Tales presenters will be on hand to answer questions. The humpback population is continuing to grow, so there’s a concern in the scientific community that these magnificent mammals will be taken off of the endangered species list despite the fact that there is still so much to be learned about them. According to Whale Trust Maui, further studies of humpback whale behaviors are needed so that effective conservation efforts can be put in place. Meagan says that so much of what was once believed to be true about humpback whales has changed over the years, and that’s what keeps the research that her organization conducts so exciting — and so important.

Between 1866 and 1949, an estimated 8,000 individuals were forcibly sent here, 90 percent of whom were Native Hawaiian or part Hawaiian. Isolation laws regarding leprosy in Hawai‘i were not abolished until 1969 —antibiotics that could cure Hansen’s Disease and allow patients to live a more normal life were introduced at Kalaupapa in 1946.

There are a number ofland use decisions and developments that can greatly affect the safety of the airport zones and flight patterns. Some of these include reflective surfaces Qike building facades and solar panels), zip lines, communications towers, wind turbines, other structure nearing 200 feet or higher, and wildlife habitats. As directed by the Airport Division, we should be looking for any ofthe above mentioned hazards that are proposed within 5 miles of an airport. Our GIS staffwill be adding a layer into the GIS system noting this 5 mile radius. lf we receive an application with a questionable hazard, we should report it to the HOOT Airport Division and require the applicant to provide a letter of no effect or approval with conditions from that division. Reflective surfaces and tower like structures are relatively easy to identi1Y, but wildlife habitats may DOt be as obvious.

  • FAA Runway Safety Report FY 2000
    FAA Runway Safety Report Runway Incursion Trends and Initiatives at Towered Airports in the United States, FY 2000 – FY 2003 August 2004 Preface THE 2004 RUNWAY SAFETY REPORT1 presents an assessment of runway safety in the United States for fiscal years FY 2000 through FY 2003. The report also highlights runway safety initiatives intended to reduce the severity, number, and rate of runway incursions. Both current progress and historical data regarding the reduction of runway incursions can be found on the Federal Aviation Administration’s (FAA) web site (http://www.faa.gov). Effective February 8, 2004, the FAA implemented an organizational change that created an Air Traffic Organization (ATO) in addition to its Regulatory functions. Safety Services, within the ATO, has assumed the responsibilities of the former Office of Runway Safety. Therefore, this FAA Runway Safety Report, which covers a period prior to the implemen- tation of the ATO, is the last in a series of reports that exclusively presents information on runway safety. Safety performance will be an integral part of future ATO products. 1 A glossary of terms and a list of acronyms used in this report are provided in Appendix A. Federal Aviation Administration 1 Executive Summary REDUCING THE RISKS OF RUNWAY INCURSIONS AND RUNWAY COLLISIONS is a top priority of the Federal Aviation Administration (FAA). Runway safety management is a dynamic process that involves measuring runway incursions as well as understanding the factors that contribute to runway collision risks and taking actions to reduce these risks. Runway incursion severity ratings (Categories A through D) indicate the potential for a collision or the margin of safety associated with an event.
