FLOOD CONTROL SYSTEM Aside from the RS 15 zoned lands located on the south side of the Gamrex loczat I tvkl u north 3.:..._ r 7,E14 '.')K lands, lies within flood plains as delineated on the Flood Insurance Rate Maps (FIRM) prepared by the Federal Emergency Management Agency (FMA). The RM 5 zoned area is identified as Tax Matz Keys: 7-6-21; 16 and 17. Tax Map Key: 7-6-21: 16 contains a land area of approximately 40.138 acres and Tax Map Key: 7-6-21: 17 contains a land area of approximately 30.901 acres. These parcels of land are more particularly shown on the tax maps attached hereto as Exhibit "A". It should be noted that Tax Map Keys: 7-6-21: 18 and 19 are owned by the County of Hawaii. The County owned parcels of land within he RM 5 zoned area approximate the courses taken by flood waters from the Horseshoe Send and Holualoa Streams. Both flood plains presently run through and over County and Gamrex owned lands on independent courses as shown on Firm Panel loos. 0926E and 09270 attached hereto as Exhibit "B". Flood waters from the Horseshoe Bend stream presently flow through the RM 5 zoned area down to and under Queen Kaahumanu Highway through a culvert. The flood waters then run down the abandoned Waiua Road (Keauhou Middle Road) and into a lot identified as Tax Map Key: 7-6-24: 32. Water ponds there until it overflows over Kuakini Highway. There is no culvert under Kuakini Highway for Horse Shoe Bend waters. When this occurs, Kuakini Highway is closed to traffic. Flood waters after crossing the highway, then flow through a drainage easement located on the southeast corner of Kuakini Makai subdivision. This easement area is termed which directs the waters onto Tax Map Key: 7-6-24: 25 owned by Gamrex, Inc. Parcel 25 is the subject of Gamrex's Affordable Housing Agreement with the County of Hawaii as required in Condition (K) of Ordinance No. 97-99. Waters then flow along an earthen berm system which lies alcove the Kalani Makai subdivision until they converge with Holualea Stream waters at a point just mauka of Tax Map Key: 7-6-24: 77. The combined confidence then flows under Kupuna Steet through a culvert into existing flood control improvements within Kalani Makai and Kamani Trees subdivisions. Flood waters from the Holualoa Stream (sometimes called the "Holualoa School Stream") flow downgradient from the abandoned railroad right-of-way over and through County and Gamrex owned lands to existing culverts under Queen Kaahurnanu and Kuakini Highways. Once under Kuakini Highway, waters flow haphazardly downgradient along the north side of Kilohana and Komohana Kai subdivisions until they merge with Horseshoe Bend Stream waters as detailed above. -2- _
