There was a time in Hawaii's history, when real property owners, would just throw away burial bones found on their property.

In the late 1960s, I remember watching a TV news story, whereby a real property owner told the reporter, that he owned the land, could do whatever he wanted to it, and he was a God fearing Christian.

He bundled the bones with some cord and threw them out with the garbage.

In today's era, there appears to be a problem, with time & how much money that you must pay for the survey, and the people involved.

Kawaiaha'o Church still has a long running legal & political problem.  If anyone, just puts a shovel into the ground, it opens up a legal & political Pandora's box.
