Environmental Resources Present <br /> The average annual rainfall in the project area is approximately 44 inches. Ai flood insurance <br /> rate map (FIRM)panel was not printed for this area. The entire subdivision is located in FEMA <br /> Zone X, areas determined to be outside the 500-year flood plain. There are no wetlands within <br /> the project area. <br /> According to the Soil Conservation Service's 2013 Soil Survey of Island of Hawaii, State of <br /> Hawaii, soils within the subdivision consist of both Puuikaaka and Napuu series soil types. The <br /> Puuikaaka series consists of very cobbly highly organic medial silt loam approximately 2 to 6 <br /> inches thick underlain by pahoehoe lava bedrock. The Napuu soils consist of extremely cobbly <br /> highly organic medial sandy loam of up to 15 inches thick underlain by pahoehoe lava bedrock. <br /> There are nine (9) Lava Flow Hazard zones on the Island of Hawaii with Zone 1 being the most <br /> hazardous and Zone 9 posing the least danger. The Project is located in Lava Flow Hazard <br /> Zone4. The area is designated Zone 4 due to the region's steep slopes and the fact that lava <br /> flows could rapidly cover the distance between potential vent sites and the coast. <br /> Survey by a professional biologist has determined that there are no rare,threatened or <br /> endangered (RTE)plant species present or likely to be affected in the area to be disturbed by the <br /> project.No RTE animals were observed during surveys.
