INTRODUCTION <br />the natural environment and the rational management of development and future population <br />growth. <br />1.2 THE PLANNING CHALLENGE <br />If Puna continues to develop at the present rate within the framework of the extensive <br />subdivisions, there will be several types of significant, long-term consequences: <br />• An increasing number of people and property improvements are being put at risk due <br />to natural hazards. All of Puna lies within the three most hazardous geological risk <br />zones: LFI, LF2 and LF3. About 6,400 subdivision lots lie in the highest hazard <br />zone, LFI, and over 500 of these are exposed to additional risks from subsidence, <br />tsunami and earthquakes. That 2,038 lots in the lower hazard zone LF2 have been <br />covered or cut off by lava flows in recent decades underscores the hazardous nature <br />of much of the district. <br />Figure 1-2: Geological Risk Zones Relative to Populated Areas and Subdivisions <br />0 25 5 <br />10 Miles <br />L.tldk <br />Add <br />a <br />II <br />If�� <br />KEAAL <br />e <br />~\ <br />\ <br />I-I�wanan B �- <br />X <br />Pant apdShores W rhdv. <br />Fe <br />a) <br />Nanawale €'lame b <br />PAHQA' <br />y and 1. ,aii <br />H ac E. <br />F rprFe4 s <br />una Garden,,' <br />Volcarl <br />Village 'Ed <br />tate . <br />Qh slates <br />- 6iark 4aiirl <br />. - <br />Reach <br />K,L'pa aiew Estates <br />SUBDIVI N <br />of lots <br />Puna ch Palisades <br />Blac Sand Beach <br />91� <br />Kcl re•na <br />Bc•a � Estates <br />H al!an Beaches Estates <br />01 <br />walian Holiday Estates <br />J f <br />Hawalian Shores Estates <br />Kolapano Sea view Estates <br />- <br />69 <br />Royal Gardens <br />Kapoho Beach Lots - <br />185 <br />Past <br />Kehena Beach Estate.$199 <br />Lava Flow <br />Lonipuno Gardens ! <br />Leilani Estates <br />116 <br />2,266 <br />HAZARD ZONE <br />Nanawcle Esta�s <br />Puna Beach PYlisades <br />4,289 <br />72 <br />1 <br />Royal Gardens <br />1,617 <br />Vacationland <br />489 <br />2 <br />Waa Waa Subdivision <br />177 <br />3 <br />1-4 <br />
