were observed during the survey, the Ruddy Turnstone and the Wandering Tattler may <br /> also occur along the shoreline. Feral mammal observed on the project site include <br /> Indian mongoose. Cat tracks were also found. <br /> <br /> 18. Flora: A botanical survey was conducted by Char and Associates on January 3, 1994 <br /> and March 3 1994. The excessively drained, extremely stony soils support thick mats <br /> of buffel grass and scattered trees of kiawe. A total of only 29 plant species were <br /> found during the field studies. Of the plant species, 24 are introduced or alien species <br /> and 5 are native. Of the natives, 4 are indigenous and 1 is endemic. The native plants <br /> are: pili grass, pau o Hi'iaka, 'ilima, alena, and 'uhaloa. None of the plants which <br /> were inventoried are listed as threatened and endangered species. <br /> <br /> 19. Archaeological Resources: An inventory survey was conducted July 1-30, 1991 and <br /> May 18-June, on the subject property by Paul H. Rosendahl Inc. The original survey <br /> report was revised pursuant to comments received from the State Department of Land <br /> and Natural Resources, State Historic Preservation Division (DLNR-SHPD) dated <br /> June 16, 1993, January 11, 1994 and January 20, 1995. The survey identified 68 sites <br /> consisting of 177 discrete features within the two parcels. It appears that there are at <br /> least 40 sites on the subject parcel. Fifty two (52) of the 68 sites identified were <br /> assessed as significant solely for information content. Of the 52 sites, 8 sites were <br /> deemed "no further work required" while the other 44 required further data collection. <br /> Five (5) of the remaining 16 sites were assessed as "significant for information content <br /> and as provisionally significant for cultural value, pending further data collection." <br /> Further data collection and provisional preservation "as is" are recommended and will <br /> be conducted. Four sites were assessed as significant for information content and as <br /> excellent examples of site types and for cultural value. These sites are recommended <br /> for further data collection followed by preservation within interpretive development. <br /> The remaining site is assessed as significant for information and content and cultural <br /> value (Site 15261, trail). Normally trails require preservation, however, the integrity <br /> of site 15261 is poor, as the trail is discontinuous and heavily eroded. No further work <br /> was recommended for the trail. Four sites have been identified as containing human <br /> -5- <br /> <br />
