Introductions. <br /> 2. Opening Pule. <br /> 3. Archaeologist review of the LCA & overlaps with different maps. <br /> 4. Access to the subject parcel was through a different parcel mauka. A makai access <br /> does not seem to have been established. Unclear where construction access will be. <br /> 5. Railroad boundaries/berms. <br /> 6. Portion of site walls heading mauka, discussion of mauka trails near Holualoa Hotel. <br /> 7. Mauka boundaries,wall alignments, stream bed that runs through subject parcel. <br /> 8. Site walls and trail makai of railroad, discussion on these elements and history, <br /> Kuulei's mana'o, Nicole's mana'o. Daryn Arai stated that the applicant has been <br /> working for seven years on this request for a time extension. This area appears to <br /> have been used as a trail during and before the historical ranching period and might <br /> need to be considered in light of the Highways Act. <br /> 9. Walked further makai along the same trail makai of the railroad. Site walls to north <br /> and south of trail have different characteristics and states of repair. South wall more <br /> intact, north wall more scattered. South wall appears to use somewhat smaller rocks. <br /> North wall has enormous rocks still in place. Rick Gmirkin mentioned haka haka <br /> stones and the appearance of what might have been a holua sled at one time. <br /> 10. Crossed south of this same trail and walked through an area that is known to have <br /> been bulldozed. Scattered rocks (remnants of terraces?) and generally sloped terrain <br /> that is less defined than the trail to the north bounded by the site walls. <br />
