The plan was revised to respond to the comments in our review letter of May 15, 2003 (McEidowney to Elmore, Log No. 2003.0385; Doc No. 0304PM14). The revised plan has satisfactorily addressed all of our earlier comments, except for the comment on traditional Hawaiian residences known as kauhale, which is addressed in your cover letter. Three research questions will be addressed in the data recovery research. In our May 15, 2003 . review letter we indicated that the research objectives should be discussed in the context of previous research and the kinds of data that are needed to address the research questions. As an example, we noted that the research question on the relationship between Sites 18002 and 18005, which you have conjectured might be components of a kauhale, should provide a brief discussion of previous archaeological investigations of kauhale in the area, and the kinds of data that would be required to address this question. This information is not contained within the plan, but you have promised in your cover letter to include it in the final report on the data recovery investigations. With this understanding your plan meets with our approval. The plan indicates that a Preservation Plan for the Kuakini Wall (Site 6302) and revised Burial Treatment Plan for all of the burials on the subject property (Sites 18006, 18010, 18013, and 18015) still need to be developed and submitted to our office for review and approval. Data recovery should not proceed until these plans are in place. EXHIBIT B
