attach B). After significant historical research we discovered a similar effort was unsuccessful in 1998. In June 2005 we contacted State Senator Russell Kokubun in the hope that a legislative bill could be drafted to fund a feasibility study for a wastewater treatment facility to serve both Kapoho Vacationland and Kapoho Beach Lots as well as public restrooms at the Wai 'Opae MLCD and in November 2005 he arranged a meeting with State Dept. of Health Deputy Director Lang Lau, County of Hawaii Wastewater Administrator Peter Boucher and County Councilman Gary Safarik. Through Senator Kokubun's efforts and positive testimony from the Dept. of Health, Dept. of Land and Natural Resources, County of Hawaii Dept. of Environmental Management and Kapoho Beach Community Association Board of Directors, SB 2480 sw=wfully passed appropriating $150,000 towards a feasibility study slated to be completed on or before January 2007. KKWA Board of Directors fully support this resolution including Kapoho Beach Lots in the scope of Senate Bill 2480. We believe with the support and participation of the greater community and interested environmental groups our goal of ending wastewater pollution in Kapoho will be realized with the help of our County Council. We hope to save our precious ocean resources for future generations and KKWA's Board of Directors implore your support to our cause. You may contact me at any time by email, letter or phone.
