Mālama Mākua takes Army to court over use of Mākua Military Reservation

Mālama Mākua has taken the US Army to federal court over use of Mākua Military Reservation. At issue is whether the Army failed to put "high priority" sites on list that allows Hawaiian cultural access and also failed to solicit necessary public input. The group had sued the Army in 2000 for violations of the National Environmental Policy Act, including the failure to complete an environmental impact statement. The suit was filed by Earthjustice.
