Hawaii Volcanoes National Park recently announced updated flight plans for September.
Today, Sept. 16, and 30, between 8 a.m. and noon, aircraft will be transporting fence materials and equipment for a fencing project in upper Kahuku above Ka‘u Forest Reserve.
At 2 p.m. Sept. 22, aircraft will be used to shuttle camp supplies and drinking water from the end of Chain of Craters Road to Apua Point, Keauhou, and Halape campsites for crew monitoring hawksbill turtle nesting season.
The park regrets any noise impact to residents and park visitors. Dates and times are subject to change based on aircraft availability and weather. Management of the park requires the use of aircraft to monitor and research volcanic activity, conduct search-and-rescue missions and law enforcement operations, support management of natural and cultural resources, and to maintain backcountry facilities.
