Hawaiia Supreme Court: Kahuku wind farm

[lbruning]

April 2, 2021 The Hawaii Supreme Court heard oral arguments Thursday in a dispute that ultimately comes down to how many endangered Hawaiian hoary bats a Kahuku wind farm is allowed to kill.

“It’s not about how much carbon dioxide emissions will be reduced compared to power generated by burning imported oil,” Lance Collins said in his opening remarks. “This case is about an administrative agency failing to follow the standards set by the Legislature regarding the protection of endangered species.”
