BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF PROJECT AND RELEVANCE TO THIS CONTRACT (Include scope, size, and cost) The scenic coastal Honoapi'ilani Highway(State Route No. 30) is a two-lane highway that currently serves as the primary access route to and from West Maui. This project is proposed to improve the resiliency of approximately six miles of the highway between Ukumehame and Launiupoko. Flooding caused by high wave wash are regular occurrences on this low-lying highway,which results in hazardous conditions, delay and roadway closures.As the primary access to West Maui,when these road closures occur, they have significant impacts on the quality of life for West Maui residents, and the West Maui economy. ` \ l e 4 1 � px��'w 3 ASL ': r For the Hawai'i Department of Transportation (HDOT), and in collaboration with the Federal Highway Administration (FHWA), WSP is providing comprehensive transportation planning, preliminary design, and cultural and environmental impact assessment for the Honoapi'ilani Highway Improvements Project in West Maui. This important resiliency project is evaluating the realignment of about six miles of the coastal highway which is a key arterial providing the main access to West Maui for workers, visitors, and goods movement. The project is intended to address existing coastal erosion and flooding, as well as future coastal erosion and flooding caused by anticipated sea level rise that have been identified as exposed and potentially vulnerable to sea level rise.The project has been awarded a Rebuilding American Infrastructure with Sustainability and Equity (RAISE)grant which established a timeline for completion of an Environmental Impact Statement(EIS), pursuant to the National Enviornmental Policy Act(NEPA)and the Hawai'i Enviornmental Policy Act(HEPA). WSP helped establish a reasonable range of alternatives in collaboration with HDOT and FHWA and facilitated early public and agency outreach to refine the alternatives to be evaluated in the EIS. In the fall of 2022, FHWA issued a Notice of Intent to prepare an EIS and initiated scoping, agency coordination and development of the USDOT dashboard, and public scoping meetings. The WSP team coordinated the development of the scope, the hybrid in-person and virtual meetings, and is leading the EIS technical work including the cultural resources work as part of the Section 106 and Hawai'i 6E processes.A Scoping Report summarizing the scoping process and public comment on the scope of work was issued in May 2023. The draft EIS will assess four alternatives across a comprehensive array of environmental impact assessment analyses including natural resources (i.e., seal level rise,wetlands,threatened and engangered species,water quality), the built environment(i.e.,traffic and transportation, air quality, noise), and social and community context(i.e., land use, Environmental Justice, historic and archeological resources). This evaluation will lead to the selection of a Preferred Alterantive which will be the basis for more refined preliminary and final design.
