The Planning Director also recommends a restriction against <br /> a second dwelling on each lot, a preparation of a conservation plan for each subdivided <br /> lot, and a "fair share" contribution to mitigate any potential impacts. <br /> The request is not contrary to Chapter 205A, Hawaii Revised Statues, relating to <br /> Coastal Zone Management. The property is not located in the Special Management Area. <br /> The site is located approximately seven miles mauka of the shoreline and therefore will <br /> not be impacted by coastal hazard and beach erosion. There is no record of a designated <br /> public access that traverses the property. According to the applicant, no valued cultural, <br /> historical or natural resources exist on the properties and there is no evidence of any <br /> traditional and customary Native Hawaiian rights being practiced on the site. Thus, it is <br /> not anticipated that the proposed request will have any adverse impact on cultural or <br /> historical resources in the area. <br /> According to the applicant, water can be made available from an existing 8-inch <br /> waterline on Kaloko Drive. The applicant also states that the Department of Water <br /> Supply considers the Kaloko Mauka Water System a separate system from other systems <br /> in Kona. The system consists of transmission and distribution lines, pump stations, and <br /> seven reservoirs which extend to approximately the 5,000-foot elevation. The reservoirs <br /> have a capacity of 500,000 gallons. Wastewater generated by the proposed development <br /> <br />
