Form #: B-52 <br />7/18/91 <br />DEPARTMENT OF FINANCE <br />REQUEST FOR COUNCIL ACTION <br />DEPARTMENT: Dept of Environmental Management DATE: <br />STAFF CONTACT: Greg Goodale PHONE: 961-8515 <br />A. REQUEST: <br />An Ordinance authorizing the Mayor to enter into an intergovernmental agreement for a State Water <br />Pollution Control Revolving Fund Loan for Solid Waste improvement projects and authorizing the issuance of <br />$6,000,000 General Obligation Bonds of the County of Hawaii for the purpose of financing the following <br />project: <br />Kealakehe Scrap Metal Yard Remediation $6,000,000 <br />B. BACKGROUND AND JUSTIFICATION (USE ADDITIONAL SHEETS AS NEEDED): <br />The State Department of Health has issued a commitment letter that funding through the State Water Pollution <br />Control Revolving Fund Loan Program is available for the Kealakehe Scrap Metal Yard Remediation project. <br />This project was previously appropriated under Ordinance 13-066 in the amount of $3,000,000 with funding to <br />come from County general obligation bonds. This request will allow us to take advantage of the lower interest <br />rates provided by the State Revolving Fund Loan Program. <br />This project is needed to satisfy the closure requirements of the solid waste management permit No. SV -0006- <br />03 for the Kealakehe Scrap Metal Yard. Work will include excavating the lead impacted soil and transporting to <br />the West Hawaii Sanitary Landfill for final disposal. The goal is to obtain closure of the site to meet DOH <br />environmental action levels for commercial/industrial land use. The design for this project is at 95 percent <br />completion and the construction is expected to begin in the second quarter of 2016. <br />SIGNED:pm DATE: I �LZII! <br />Department Head <br />
