Hawaii Gov. David Ige is recruiting “qualified and dedicated people” interested in serving on the state .
The designated Maui and Oahu land district seats are open, according to a press release Wednesday. The volunteer board positions, which hold four-year terms, require attendance at BLNR meetings on Oahu twice a month “and more often as needed.”
Ige is seeking applicants with “balanced and inclusive perspectives, committed to the conservation and protection and sustainable use” of Hawaii鈥檚 natural and cultural resources.
Those resources are the public trust responsibilities of the state .
The DLNR manages forestry and wildlife, aquatic resources, state parks, boating and ocean recreation, historic preservation and conservation and coastal lands.
BLNR members must be approved by the state Senate and are required to provide public financial disclosure information.
The BLNR has seven members total, including chair Suzanne Case, who also heads the DLNR.
