ALAMEDA:Commissioner Graham? GRAHAM:Well, I mean, if the stabilizing is not going to be, then you dont have to do anything. But you could essentially guarantee a stabilization of the Trail up to the most mauka elevation of your property. And if its State-owned, I guess, is it not permissible for you to do that? MOORE:It would be very difficult to recreate something that was never documented. You know, at this point, as we extended further mauka of whats existing, wed almost be guessing at the morphology of what was there before. You know, we dont have documentation at this point. The bi-faced core filled walls, parallel walls, continue all the way up to Hualalai, the Trail was once 16 miles long and it reached up to the Heiau Ahu-a-Umi. It hasnt been thoroughly described in the entire length. GRAHAM:I think Mr. Yuen certainly understands where Im coming from. And so, youknow,ratherthanhavingyoutrytoreplicatesomethingthatexistedhistoricallywhatIm really looking for most is that it be there for public use and in a usable fashion; and so anything that might be an impediment to that, that you folks would take care of as far as your mauka boundary. Is that workable, Chris, or is there some way you could do that? YUEN:Let me just say I want to understand this correctly. Do the parallel walls continue where it goes off your property? MOORE:As far as I know, no. There has been some documentation several thousand meters, a couple of miles, but Im not familiar exactly with the site description from those work -. YUEN:What I mean is on this Diagram A-1 that we were looking at, it shows parallel walls within your metes and bounds. And then it, they did not attempt to map this to the property to the south, apparently, because it goes off onto whats shown as a State easement on the tax maps. MOORE:Well, whats shown on the map is basically whats on the ground now. YUEN:Okay, so the parallel walls, where it goes off the metes and bounds of the property, the parallel walls stop? MOORE:Correct. YUEN:Theyve been destroyed already? MOORE:Correct. YUEN:Okay. So my suggestion, theres nothing to stabilize past this 100-foot stretch of parallel walls. So my suggestion would be simply that they, that we have a condition that they stabilize that stretch of the Judd Trail, including the walls that line it. They would still have to actually get consent of SHPD to do this work, in any event, both from an archeological 10EXHIBIT C
