BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF PROJECT AND RELEVANCE TO THIS CONTRACT (Include scope, size, and cost) <br />The feasibility phase for this project was initiated in July 2002. Following the 2004 Manoa <br />flood, the project was amended to include the upstream portions of the Ala Wai Watershed <br />(Manna, Makiki, Palolo). The project restarted in 2007, incorporating the information <br />developed in the Manoa Watershed Project. In 2012, ecosystem restoration was <br />eliminated as a study objective and the project was renamed the Ala Wai Canal Flood <br />Risk Management. A report by the USACE was signed in December 2017 and a Record of <br />Decision for the EIS was reached in September 2018, concluding the feasibility phase for <br />the project. After the release of the 2017 FEIS, there was widespread community <br />opposition that was very consistent with the concerns raised in 2004. While this plan might <br />prevent large-scale flood damage, community members felt it was deeply flawed, and <br />would cause more damage to the ecosystem and to property than it was worth. In answer <br />to very vocal community response, the Honolulu City Council formed the Ala Wai <br />Permitted Interaction Group (PIG), which hired Oceanit to help with community outreach <br />and ensure that the project's full flood control was fully utilized. <br />SWIFT <br />(Suhsurf— Watershed Inundation Flow Technology] <br />rd-n�r m��� �• a��o� � s��nwr ���� s�mm�� <br />V <br />Oceanit developed the SWIFT (Subsurface <br />Watershed Inundation Flow Technology) design <br />concept that would utilize tunnels to remove water <br />from the upper watersheds directly to the ocean and Al.

Oceanit held numerous community meetings involving residents, private businessowners, non- <br />profit leaders, and government officials to collect feedback and input from those who would be <br />affected most directly. A physical 3D model of the watershed was created to better engage the community and communicate options <br />and solutions. Flood inundation animations and flood maps could be projected onto the 3D model to demonstrate the effects of <br />stormwater at varying storm frequencies. A modified visualization tool was also created to allow for 2D presentation via zoom web <br />meeting <br />� fl <br />25.
