On 8 March, the committee had a very informative two-hour <br />meeting with Nancy Murphy, Division of Boating and Ocean Recreation <br />(DOBOR), and District Manager. The following is a compilation of all these <br />findings. <br /> <br />Puako Ramp <br />This is a small, 16' wide ramp with a loading dock/pier and multiple wash down <br />spigots and, in pretty good condition. Parking is cramped and limited, but <br />sufficient as long as the Kawaihae ramp is operational. <br /> <br />Kauhako (Ho'okena) Ramp <br /> <br />There are no active boating facilities. Shoreline use is limited to recreational use <br />of this County Park. <br /> <br />Milolii Landing <br />DOBOR is only responsible for the fish hoist landing. The local community <br />maintains the ramp. The hoist appears operational and in fair condition. The <br />concrete steps from upper to the lower level are broken, dangerous and require <br />repair. The rub rail also needs repair and tires replaced. New cleats are also <br />needed. <br /> <br />Kaulana (South Point) Ramp <br />This is described as a twenty-foot (20) wide, single-lane ramp. No wash down or <br />pier or landing. The concrete ramp is in good condition but unusable due to <br />sand intrusion. The County Fire/Rescue Dept. cannot launch a search and rescue <br />vessel under the present conditions they must come from Pohoiki or Keauhou. <br />Local fishermen require use of this ramp. <br /> <br />1 <br />
