And this would be in the <br />Kawaihae direction, and this would be in the Kawaihae; and this would be in the Kohala <br />direction. <br />The Kohala Waterfront Project, or also known as Kohala Makai I Subdivision, is located at this <br />particular location; and it is subdivided in 20,000 plus square foot lots. The Kohala Estates <br />Subdivision is located in this general location; and we also have the Kohala Ranch development <br />at this particular location, further mauka of the highway. <br />The applicant intends to subdivide a 28-acre lot into five 5-acre lots. Initially the applicant came <br />in for a 7-lot subdivision back in 1991 for which an SMA Minor Permit was granted to allow that <br />particular development. And, basically, that was to allow the subdivision of 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7 <br />lots; and that granted, as I indicated earlier, through an SMA Minor Permit. Final subdivision <br />approval was granted in 2001. <br /> <br />
