Individual Wastewater System (IWS) for the residents, a PV system for power, and a utilities room to support those utilities. The total development area is about 5,000 square feet, 4,877 square feet. The County zoning of the parcel and as you can see, most of the surrounding area is in Agricultural 20-acres. There is some Residential 7.5 that would be Honomu just north of the property. The State Land Use, as I mentioned, is Conservation, but it does have portions, a small portion within the Agricultural District and then again Honomu you see is zoned Urban in State Land Use. The Land Use Pattern Allocation Guide (LUPAG) for this project site is Open and the surrounding areas is Important Agricultural Lands and then you see Honomu with the Low Density Urban and Medium Density Urban designations. Here's an aerial photograph and looking south, you can see the property is undeveloped, heavily vegetated, grasses, shrubs, trees, and there's no development and no real current access that's been developed yet. Here's an aerial photograph looking to the north, again, you can clearly see that it's undeveloped and vegetated all the way up to the coastline. Here's the site plan as proposed by the applicant, you can see the driveway which is within an easement that allows access to the site. The home, the individual wastewater system and take note the distance from the top of pall the applicant has set this back about 130 feet. So, well back from the shoreline and in this case the shoreline is the top of pall. Here's a view building section, side view of the proposed structure showing the height, as it was stated it's single-story. So, view plane issues were taken into account and because of the vegetation and topography this will not be seen from the road. So, it would be well hidden, so there should be no view plane impacts. Here's a floor plan provided by the applicant for the structure. This is an outline of the fishing access. So, this is the access provided by the applicant for fishermen to access the site called "Ladders". I turned the site plan just to make it easier for viewing but the applicant has stated that they would put parking. A small parking area, possibly two (2)to 3 cars just on the mauka side of the driveway and then the fishermen would be able to access Ladders as they have done for a while now. But again, this is a fishermen access. Here's a site photo this is taken by the applicant or the agent for the applicant and is a view of the proposed dwelling site within the property. You can see, pretty heavily vegetated. This is a view from the proposed residence looking makai towards the shoreline again, you can see it's very heavily vegetated. As some of you may note in the Background and Recommendation, there is an old route of the Hawaii consolidated railroad passes through this property, and this is a view of that old railroad bed. As you can see, full of palm trees, not much is left. But State Historic Preservation Division (SHPD) has signed off on that and has reviewed these sites on the property. This is a view of the Ladders fishing site access at the edge of the pall. As the fishermen have stated in the Environmental Assessment(EA) and through interviews it's very dangerous to get down there. A lot of them actually will repel versus using these rickety ladders. You can tell from the photograph how steep and dangerous getting down to that rocky point would be for 2 EXHIBIT B
