At least five members will be appointed from nominations received from Native Hawaiian organizations to represent the interests of those organizations. The other four members will represent other Native Hawaiian interests. The nine voting members will be appointed for 5-year terms. The four ex officio members include the Park Superintendent, the Pacific West Regional Pacific Islands Director, one person appointed by the Governor of Hawaii, and one person appointed by the Mayor of the County of Hawaii.
