Public hearings, 1991
In April, 1991, the Kaho‘olawe Island Conveyance Commission conducted a series of hearings on six Hawaiian islands to collect testimony as to how the island of Kaho‘olawe should be conveyed back to the people of Hawai‘i from the U.S. Navy, who had ceased to use it as a bombing range in 1990.
