Raspberries, gorse, banana poka, ivy gourd, fireweed, autograph trees, and plume poppies. <br /> Additional information on invasive species can be found on the University of Hawai'i site <br /> atwww.ctahr.Hawai'i.edu/haraa/HPCAInvasiveSpecies092311 rev%20(NXPowerLite%20pptx) <br /> Water Resources: There is limited county water available with most of it located near Highway <br /> 130. Primary source of water for residents is water catchment. Wells have been drilled in the <br /> subdivision with a March 18, 2015 report to HPPOA by Robert Whittier and Daniel Chang of the <br /> Department of Health indicating that well water is safe. The aquifer is at sea level. <br /> Shoreline: The shoreline consists of rocky basalt lava cliffs ranging from 6 to 25 feet in height. <br /> There are no county designated sand beaches or safe water entry areas within the boundaries of <br /> the subdivision. <br /> Archaeological Resources: Within the subdivision exist some archeological sites attributed to <br /> an ancient Hawaiian settlement. A report was produced by Archaeologist Paul H. Rosendahl in <br /> 1985. Further investigation has been requested by the State Historic Preservation's Sean <br /> Naleimaile, Hawai'i-Assistant Archaeologist, who can be reached at(808) 933-7651 or <br /> at Sean.P.NaleimailekHawai'i.gov. Due to the fact that laws pertaining to historical property <br /> have changed over the past ten years it is possible a new assessment may be necessary for HPP. <br /> (See Appendix D) <br /> Visual Resources: Within the boundaries of the subdivisions there are many areas where Mauna <br /> Kea, Mauna Loa, and the ocean may be viewed. The visual impression one gets when driving <br /> the main roads within the boundaries is that of tree lined thoroughfares leading to the ocean. <br /> When driving the connecting roads, one views a wide range of properties and homes. <br /> Natural Hazards: HPP is located in USGS Lava Zone 3. There is the potential for earthquakes, <br /> wind storms, flooding, tsunamis, hurricanes, floods, lava tubes, and sinkholes. <br /> 2.3 LAND USE <br /> Existing Land Use: The HPP subdivision is composed primarily of one acre parcels zoned for <br /> agricultural use. Although zoned agricultural, the most significant use of land has been for <br /> ❑6 <br />
