24. Water: According to the Department of Water Supply (DWS), the subject parcel and parcels included in SUB -07-000610 (SUB 7814) are subject to the "Settlement Agreement and Release" of March 17, 2004, which provides a water commitment for 510 water units [at an average of 400 gallons per day/per unit]. The water commitment consists of 368 units of water from the "Kealakekua Source Agreement" and 142 units of water'that are subject to conditions in the 2004 settlement (with no expiration date). The DWS has stated that there is an outstanding water commitment deposit that is required for the 142 units of water. The DWS is requesting that the applicant submit estimated maximum daily water usage calculations, prepared by a professional engineer, for review and approval. Upon acceptance of the water usage calculations, DWS will determine the amount of water units, water commitment deposits, facilities charges to be paid, and water system improvements required for water service. Staff inquired of the applicant regarding the use of the 510 water units and how they were going to be shared with the current proposed developments (Pua`a and Suffolk) and the other adjoining parcels. The applicant answered that there are no plans for the balance. As such, after water use calculation study done per DWS' requirement, the residual would be assigned to the other parcels. The exact division among those undeveloped parcels is unknown at this time. 23. Wastewater: The applicant proposes to connect the proposed project to the County sewer system that extends from Kuakini Highway and bisects a portion of the subj ect property. The applicant will perform an engineering study to determine if the sewer line has adequate capacity to handle the proposed flows. No alternative was provided for sewer or wastewater controls if capacity is unable to handle the additional inputs. By comment letter dated December 20, 2019 the Hawaii Dept. of Health (DOH) supports the sewer requirements made by the County for the proposed project. 24.
