INC. August 2010 HAMAKUA LAND SALE: KOHOLALELE FINAL ENVIRONMENTAL ASSESSMENT SUMMARY Project Name: Hamakua Land Sale: Koholalele Location: Koholalele, Hamakua District, Island and County of Hawaii, TMK: (3) 4 -2- 005:001, approximately 1,040 acres Landowner: County of Hawaii Proposing Agency: County of Hawai `i, Department of Finance Accepting Authority: Mayor or designee, County of Hawaii Proposed Action: Sale of County lands Existing Use: Fallow former sugarcane land overgrown with Guinea grass, ironwood trees, and other invasive weeds Land Use Designations: State Land Use District: Agriculture Hawaii County Zoning: A -40a County General Plan: Important Agricultural Lands Alternatives Considered: Hawaii County has considered four alternatives: no action, selling, exchanging, or leasing. To meet the objective of encouraging productive agricultural use of the Site, the alternatives of selling, exchanging, or leasing are viable alternatives. However, leasing for agricultural purposes would require some infrastructure costs and increased resources for property management. With the plans to offer agricultural leases for the Kapulena County lands, there may not be the leasing demand for the Site to justify the cost, time, and added expense to lease the Site. Exchanging is totally dependent on finding a suitable exchange site and willing owner. To meet the objective of maximizing revenues, the sales alternative is the most viable in terms of the sales proceeds and ongoing property tax revenues since the land would be privately owned. Therefore, unless an exchange becomes an option, selling the Site best meets the objectives of encouraging agricultural productivity and generating revenues. Summary of Major Impacts and Mitigation Measures: There are no sensitive resources on the Site (e.g., threatened or endangered species, native habitats, significant archaeological sites) that require special protection through continued government ownership or special deed restrictive covenants. Based on soil HAMAKUA LAND SALE: KOHOLALELE FINAL ENVIRONMENTAL ASSESSMENT characteristics, topography, and rainfall, the Site is suitable for agriculture, but not as suitable in the upper portion of the Site where the topography is steeper (where the ALISH designation is Unclassified, i.e., not Prime or Other). The Site is beyond the service area of the Hamakua Ditch, and alternative surface or groundwater sources for irrigation may not be feasible; hence, agricultural activity will need to depend on rainfall. Altering the land contours for agricultural or farm dwellings could affect the drainage onto the downstream owner, but this can be mitigated by developing conservation plans as required by the County's grading ordinance. Should the purchaser of the Site subdivide to the maximum permitted by the existing A -40a zoning, the maximum number of lots would be approximately 20 lots (assuming 20% of the land area would be used for road improvements or other purposes). The County would likely require improvements such as all- weather access roads (for emergency vehicles) and safe connection to Mamalahoa Highway as conditions of subdivision. The lack of existing capacity in the County's Pa`auilo water system would mean that the subdivision would be served by water catchments and limited to six lots under the Planning Department's water variance rules. The permitted farm dwellings would be allowed to install cesspools that meet the Department of Health's standards since the Site is located in a non- critical wastewater disposal area where any cesspool leachate would not impact the groundwater or nearshore coastal waters. The Site is not in any special natural hazard area.

intentionally left blank. Rd HAMAKUA LAND SALE: KOHOLALELE FINAL ENVIRONMENTAL ASSESSMENT 1.0 INTRODUCTION 1.1 PROPOSING AGENCY AND ACCEPTING AUTHORITY The proposed action is the sale of County land. Any use of State or County land triggers an environmental review pursuant to Section 343- 5(a)(1), Hawai `i Revised Statutes (HRS), unless it is an exempt action. Since the sale of County lands is not an exempt action, the Department of Finance, as the agency that handles the disposition of County land, is the proposing agency for this environmental assessment. Whenever a county agency proposes an action, the accepting authority is the Mayor or authorized representative'. The mailing address and primary contact person is listed below: Ms. Nancy Crawford, Director County of Hawaii Department of Finance 25 Aupuni Street, Suite 2103 Hilo, Hawai `i 96720 -4252 1.2 PROPERTY LOCATION The County land proposed for sale is located in the ahupua`a of Koholalele in the Hamakua District, on the northeast side of the Island and County of Hawaii ( "Site "). The Site consists of two parcels: TMK (3) 4 -2- 005 -001 (approximately 900 acres) ( "Parcel 1 ") and TMK 4- 2 -005- 005 (approximately 140 acres) ( "Parcel 5 "), totaling approximately 1,040 acres. The Site is located on the south (mauka) side of Mamalahoa Highway, east of Pa`auilo, at about the 35 mile marker (Figure 1). 1 Hawaii Revised Statutes §343- 5(b)(2)(B).

Across the highway, Kamehameha Schools owns the property from the highway to the ocean and grows eucalyptus trees (see Figure 3). To the east of the Site (towards Hilo), near the highway are a cluster of commercial buildings and single family dwellings in a town called Kuka`iau. Kainehe Gulch forms the east boundary of the Site. Mauna Kea Ranch Road provides access to the lots east of Kainehe Gulch. South of the Site (mauka) are large privately owned lots in the State Land Use Agricultural District, the Hamakua Forest Reserve Pa`auilo sector bordering the southwest corner of the Site, and the Hamakua Forest Reserve Kainehe sector bordering the southeast corner of the Site. The Kawaili Gulch forms the west boundary of the Site (towards Honoka`a). Across this gulch, the Antone De Luz Road provides access to single family dwellings and ranches within the Pa`auilo Homesteads, as well as the lots the County plans to sell described and assessed in a previous environmental assessment,3 A cluster of single - family dwellings is located west of the Site along Mamalahoa Highway in the Ka`ohe Tract Subdivision with access from Ka`ohe Road. The town of Pa`auilo is approximately a mile to the northwest. s PBR HAWAII, December 2006. Pa'auilo Lands Final Environmental Assessment.

Prior to the County's acquisition, the property had been in active sugar cane production. The County Department of Finance will be selling this property in accordance with County Council Resolution No. 161 -02, adopted on January 24, 2002, authorizing the sale of the Site. Although the sales proceeds are not considered property tax revenues that are subject to the 2% allocation into the Public Access, Open Space, and Natural Resources Preservation special fund pursuant to Hawaii County Code §2- 214(b)(5), the Mayor has proposed that the proceeds be deposited into that special fund or exchanged for any land on the Open Space priority list.4 The Hawaii County Department of Finance (DOF) proposes to initially sell or exchange Parcel 1 at public auction, and may later consider selling or exchanging Parcel 5. 2.2 NEED FOR THE PROPOSED ACTION The County has not used, generated revenues, or otherwise derived any benefit from the Site since acquiring it in 1994 from Hamakua Sugar Company in lieu of real property taxes owed. The County views that the sale of these lands will serve the greater public interest in that it will allow these lands to return to productive agricultural use while allowing the County to recoup previously unpaid real property taxes that it may use to fund existing or additional programs. The sale will also mean that these lands will revert to private ownership and will be subject to real property taxes that are currently not being paid under County ownership. 2.3 POTENTIAL USES While the lands are expected to remain in agriculture, the exact use and any associated impacts will depend on the buyer. This EA, however, discusses potential impacts and mitigation measures for the possibility that the Site would be subdivided up to the maximum number of lots permitted by zoning with a farm dwelling built on each lot. The Site is zoned A -40a, allowing dwellings at a minimum lot size of 40 acres. Assuming 20% of the 1040 -acre Site would be used for roadways, the Site could be further subdivided into a total of 20 lots. This hypothetical number of lots also assumes that water is or will become available. 2.4 TrnmvG OF ACTION The proposed sale or exchange is tentatively planned for the later part of 2010. 4 Armstrong, Jason, "A flip -flop on land policy ", Hawaii Tribune Herald, January 16, 2010. 2 -1 HAMAKUA LAND SALE: KOHOLALELE FINAL ENVIRONMENTAL ASSESSMENT This page intentionally left blank 2 -2 HAMAKUA LAND SALE: KOHOLALELE FINAL ENVIRONMENTAL ASSESSMENT 3.0 ASSESSMENT OF THE NATURAL ENVIRONMENT, POTENTAL IMPACTS AND MITIGATION MEASURES This chapter describes the existing conditions of the natural or physical environment, potential impacts of the proposed action, and mitigation measures to minimize any adverse impacts. 3.1 CLIMATE The Site lies between the 800 and 2,400 -foot elevations on the windward northeast side of Hawaii Island. It is affected by the prevailing northeast trade winds, making the local climate cool and wet. Winds are generally northeast, with typical trade wind speeds of 10 -15 miles per hour. Average annual rainfall in the general vicinity of the Site is approximately 80 -120" inches (see Figure 4). The average temperature for the Site is 74 -76 °F (DLNR 1970). Potential Impacts and Mitigation Measures The proposed sale and subsequent use of the Site will not affect the regional climate. 3 -1 HAMAKUA LAND SALE: KOHOLALELE FINAL ENVIRONMENTAL ASSESSMENT Figure 4, Rainfall LEGEND Koholalele Site Rainfall (inches) - - -- — 60 inches 10" to 20" (approx.) 20" to 30" (approx.) 30" to 40" (approx.) 40" to 60" (approx.)

Rocky gulches run from south to north, the length of the site. Soils within the Site derive from Mauna Kea Holocene and Pleistocene era volcanic rocks (Wolfe and Morris 1996). Soils are discussed in more length in Section 3.4 of this report. Potential Impacts and Mitigation Measures No significant impacts to the regional geology and topography are anticipated as a result of the proposed sale or any subsequent use of the Site. 3.3 DRAINAGE & SURFACE WATER RESOURCES The Site is bound to the east by Kainehe Gulch and to the west by Kawaili Gulch. Koholalele Gulch runs roughly down the center of the Site. Koholalele Gulch is also the name of the perennial stream that flows through that gulch with a perennial tributary that flows through Kawaili Gulch and an intermittent tributary also named Koholalele Gulch that flows through the middle of Parcel 5. The perennial stream that flows through Kainehe Gulch is a tributary to the perennial stream flowing through Kalapahapuu Gulch (see Figure 5) The Site is designated Zone X by the Flood Insurance Rate Map, indicating that the lands beyond the gulches are not floodplains (Figure 6). The lands contain no known drainage improvements. Potential Impacts and Mitigation Measures Clearing, grubbing, and use of the land for agriculture will likely alter the drainage patterns. As the Site becomes subdivided and populated by multiple owners, the "upstream" owner could have an impact on the "downstream" owner. The mitigation of such drainage impacts could be better coordinated if each owner diligently develops a conservation program "acceptable to the applicable soil and water conservation district directors ... providing: (A) Such operations do not alter the general and localized drainage patterns with respect to abutting properties. (B) A conservation program for the affected properties acceptable to and approved by the applicable soil and water conservation district directors is filed with the soil conservation district. (C) The conservation program, with appropriate modifications is reviewed and re- approved by the soil and water conservation district directors periodically but not less than once every five years."

These are the U.S. Department of Agriculture Soil Conservation Service Soil Survey (USDA 1972), the University of Hawaii Land Study Bureau Detailed Land Classification (Baker 1965), and the State of Hawaii Department of Agriculture's Agricultural Lands of Importance to the State of Hativai `i (ALISH) (State of Hawaii 1977). The principal focus of these studies has been to describe the physical attributes of Hawai`i's lands and the relative productivity of different land types for agricultural production purposes. 3.4.1 Soil Conservation Service Soil Survey The Soil Survey of the Island of Hawai `i, State of Hativai `i (USDA 1972) identifies eight soil types on the Site (Figure 7). • Honoka`a Silty Clay Loam, Low Elevation, HsC (0 -10% slopes) • Honoka`a Silty Clay Loam, Low Elevation, HsD (10 -20% slopes) • Honoka`a Silty Clay Loam, Low Elevation, HsE (20 -35% slopes) • Honoka`a Silty Clay Loam, HTD (10 -20% slopes) • Kuka`iau Silty Clay Loam, KuC (6 -20% slopes) • Kuka`iau Silty Clay Loam, KuD (12 -20% slopes) • Kuka`iau Silty Clay Loam, KuE (20 -35% slopes) • Rough Broken Land, RB The USDA classifies the agricultural suitability of these soil types from I to VIII, with Capability Class I being the best suited for agriculture and Class VIII being the least suited. The soils on the Site are comprised of soils in Classes IV, VI, and VII: • Class IV soils have very severe limitations that reduce the choice of plants, require very careful management, or both. • Class VI soils have severe limitations that make them generally unsuited to cultivation and limit their use largely to pasture or range, woodland, or wildlife. • Class VII soils have very severe limitations that make them generally unsuited to cultivation and restrict their use largely to pasture or range, woodland, or wildlife. Capability subclasses, which are designated by adding a letter after the Roman numeral, indicate the main limitation risk. For example, Kuka`iau Silty Clay Loam is classed as IVe, VIe, indicating that the main limitation risk is from erosion, unless close growing vegetative cover is maintained. The predominant soil type on the Site, the Honoka`a silty claim loam comprising over half the Site, is in Class IV and has only slight erosion hazard. More detailed descriptions of the eight soil types on the Site are as follows: 3 -6 HAMAIWA LAND SALE: I<OHOLALELE FINAL ENVIRONMENTAL ASSESSMENT Honoka`a Silty Clay Loam, 10 -25% slopes (HTD) constitutes approximately 261 acres or roughly 26 percent of the Site, and is located at the site's highest elevations. The USDA describes this soil as being located on the windward side of Mauna Kea. In a representative profile, the surface layer is dark brown silty clay loam, approximately 6 inches thick. The subsoil is also silty clay loam. It is dark brown, very dark brown, and very dark grayish brown and is approximately 59 inches thick. This soil is medium acid to slightly acid throughout the profile. It dehydrates irreversibly into fine gravel -size aggregates. Permeability is rapid, runoff is slow, and the erosion hazard is slight. Roots can penetrate to a depth of 5 feet or more. This soil is used mostly for pasture and woodland. At the time of the survey, a small acreage at the lowest elevation was used for sugarcane. These soils are in capability Class IV. Honoka`a Silty Clay Loam, Low Elevation, 0 -10% slopes (HsC) constitutes approximately 70 acres or roughly 7 percent of the Koholalele site. This soil is similar to Honoka`a silty clay loam 10 to 25 percent slopes (HTD), except that it occurs at a lower elevation where the soil temperature is warmer. This soil historically has been used principally for sugarcane. Honoka`a Silty Clay Loam, Low Elevation, 10 -20% slopes (HsD) constitutes approximately 343 acres or roughly 33 percent of the Site. This soil is similar to Honoka`a silty clay loam 10 to 25 percent slopes (HTD), except that it occurs at a lower elevation where the soil temperature is warmer. This soil is used historically for sugarcane. Small areas are used for pasture and macadamia nuts. These soils are in Capability Class IV. Honoka`a Silty Clay Loam, Low Elevation, 20 -35% slopes (HsE) constitutes approximately 96 acres or 9 percent of the Site. A band of this soil type runs the length of the site between the 1600 foot and 1700 ground elevation level. This soil is similar to Honoka`a silty clay loam 10 to 20 percent slopes, except that it is steep and occurs at a lower elevation where the soil temperature is warmer. Runoff is medium, and the erosion hazard is moderate. This soil has been used mostly for sugarcane. Small areas are used for pasture and macadamia nuts. These soils are in Capability Class VI. Kuka`iau Silty Clay Loam, 6 -12% slopes (KuC) constitutes approximately 37 acres or 4 percent of the Site. At the site, it is found in the lowest elevations, near Mamalahoa Highway. The USDA describes this soil series as consisting of well- drained silty clay loams that formed in volcanic ash. These soils are gently sloping to steep. They are on uplands at an elevation ranging from 500 to 1,500 feet and receive from 70 to 100 inches of rainfall annually. Their mean annual soil temperature is between 67° and 69° F. The natural vegetation consists of hilograss, kaimi clover, guava, and `ohi`a. These soils and Honoka`a, `0'6kala, and Pa`auhau soils are in the same general area. Historically, Kuka`iau soils are used mostly for sugarcane. Small areas are used for truck crops, macadamia nuts, and pasture. Kuka`iau Silty Clay Loam, 12 -20% slopes (KuD) constitutes approximately 37 acres or 4 percent of the Site. This soil is low on the windward side of Mauna Kea. It is dissected by many, deep, narrow gulches. In a representative profile the surface layer is very dark grayish -brown silty clay loam about 10 inches thick. The subsoil is dark -brown silty clay loam about 40 inches thick. It is underlain by basalt. The surface layer is extremely acid, and the subsoil is medium to slightly acid. This soil dehydrates irreversibly into aggregates the size of fine sand. This soil is similar to Kuka`iau silty clay loam, 6 to 12 percent slopes, except for the steeper slopes. Runoff is medium and the erosion hazard is moderate. 3 -7 HAMAKUA LAND SALE: KOHOLALELE FINAL ENVIRONMENTAL ASSESSMENT This soil historically was used mainly for sugarcane. Small areas are used for macadamia nuts and pasture. (Capability subclass IVe, nonirrigated; sugarcane group 3; pasture group 7; woodland group 5) Kuka`iau Silty Clay Loam, 20 -35% slopes (KuE) constitutes approximately 32 acres or 3 percent of the Site. This soil is similar to Kuka`iau silty clay loam, 6 to 12 percent slopes, except for the steeper slopes. Runoff is rapid, and the erosion hazard is severe. Included in mapping are small areas in drainageways that have very steep slopes. This soil is used mostly for sugarcane. Small areas are used for pasture. (Capability subclass VIe, nonirrigated; sugarcane group 3; pasture group 7; woodland group 5). Rough broken land, (RB) constitutes approximately 141 acres or roughly 14 percent of the Site and is found along most of the site's gulches. Rough broken land is a miscellaneous land type that consists of very steep, precipitous land broken by many intermittent drainage channels. It occurs primarily in gulches, and the slope is dominantly 35 to 70 percent. The soil material ranges from very shallow to deep. Stones and rock outcrops are common in some areas. Elevation ranges from near sea level to 3,000 feet, and the annual rainfall ranges from 50 inches to more than 150 inches. Vegetation varies with rainfall. Kukui trees are typically common in the gulches. There are a few, scattered waterfalls. Rough broken land is used for pasture, woodland, wildlife habitat, and recreation areas. Adapted pasture plants and yields are similar to those for soils associated with this land type. These soils are in Capability Class VII. 3.4.2 Land Study Bureau Soil Rating The Detailed Land Classification, Island of Hawai `i (Baker et al. 1965) classifies non -urban areas based on a five -class rating system for agricultural productivity using the letters A, B, C, D, and E. Under this system, A represents the highest class of productivity and E the lowest. The Site is comprised of lands classified as "C" or "D" with the gulches unclassified. The portion of the site classified as "C" extends from Mamalahoa Highway to approximately the 1800 foot ground elevation contour. The portion of the site classified as "D" is the higher elevation portion of the site and is primarily comprised of Honoka`a Silty Clay Loam 10 -25% slopes (HTD) (see Figure 8). 3.4.3 Agricultural Lands of Importance The ALISH system classifies three types of land suitable for agriculture: Prime Lands, Unique Lands, and Other Lands (unsuitable lands are designated Unclassified) (State of Hawaii 1977): • Prime Agricultural Land is land best suited for the production of food, feed, forage, and fiber crops. When treated and managed, including water management, and according to modern farming methods, the land has the soil quality, growing season, and moisture supply needed to economically produce sustained high yields of crops. • Unique Agricultural Land is land other than Prime Agricultural Land and is used for the production of specific high -value food crops. The land has the special combination of soil quality, growing season, temperature, humidity, sunlight, air drainage, elevation, aspect, moisture supply, or other conditions, such as nearness to market, that favor the production of a specific crop of high quality and/or high yield when the land is treated HAMAKUA LAND SALE: KOHOLALELE FINAL ENVIRONMENTAL ASSESSMENT and managed according to modern farming methods. In Hawai `i, some examples of such crops are coffee, taro, rice, watercress and non - irrigated pineapple. Land that qualifies as Prime Agricultural Land and is used for a specific high -value crop is classified as Prime rather than as Unique. • Other Agriculture Land is land other than Prime or Unique Agricultural Land that is also of statewide or local importance for the production of food, feed, fiber, and forage crops. The lands in this classification are important to agriculture in Hawaii yet exhibit properties, such as seasonal wetness, erosion, limited rooting zone, slope, flooding, or drought, which exclude the lands from the Prime or Unique Agricultural Land classifications. By applying greater inputs of fertilizer and other soil amendments, providing drainage improvements, implementing erosion control practices, and providing flood protection, these lands can be farmed satisfactorily and produce fair to good crop yields . The majority of the Site is identified as Prime Lands. A small area at the Site's lower elevation is classified as "Other ". This land is associated with the soil type Kukiau Silty Clay Loam 20- 35% slope. Lands at the higher elevations that roughly correspond with the Honoka`a Silty Clay Loam 10 -25% Slopes (HTD) are unclassified. The site's gulches are also unclassified. See Figure 9. Potential Impacts and Mitigation Measures The proposed sale of the Site is expected to beneficially impact agriculture by enabling private agricultural endeavors. If the Site was classified as LSB A or B, the State Land Use Law would have required that any further subdivision of the Site be subject to a covenant restricting the uses to be "primarily in pursuit of agricultural activity." (Hawai`i Revised Statutes §205- 4.5(b). However, this covenant requirement does apply to the Site since no part of the Site is classified as LSB A or B. m Figure 7, NRCS Soils Li HAMAKUA LAND SALE: KOHOLALELE FINAL ENVIRONMENTAL ASSESSMENT Soil Classification Honoka'a silty clay loam, 0 to 10 %v slopes Honoka`a silty clay loam, 10 to 20 % slopes _ Honoka'a silty clay loam, 20 to 35% slopes _ Rough broken land Other soil type LEGEND „ Koholalele Site Souroe,Natuml Resources Conservation 5mvioe Disciaimer This graphic has been prepared for general planning pup— only.

The Pa`auilo aquifer system has a sustainable yield of approximately 60 million gallons per day (mgd). Other aquifer systems within the East Mauna Kea Aquifer Sector include the Honoka`a, Hakalau, and Onomea systems. The total sustainable yield of the East Mauna Kea Sector is 388 mgd. Existing water use within the East Mauna Kea Sector is 12.4 mgd, of which agriculture is the largest user at 9.56 mgd (77 %). Of the agricultural use, the average flow of the Lower Hamakua Ditch is estimated at 6.5 mgd in 2003. The ditch system consists of five scattered reservoirs and 14 miles of ditch generally parallel to Mamalahoa Highway from the Kukuihaele Weir to the Pa`auilo Reservoir north of the Site. The potential groundwater withdrawal from the Pa`auilo aquifer system from existing wells based on installed pump capacities is 6.77 mgd, or 11% of the sustainable yield (Fukunaga & Associates, Inc. December 2006). Potential Impacts and Mitigation Measures Since the Site is not within the Hamakua Ditch service area or near known springs, future agricultural use would need to rely on rainfall. Private wells or stream diversions are not likely to be feasible. The availability of potable water for farm dwellings is discussed in Section 5.2 on water infrastructure. 3.6 NATURAL HAZARDS Lava Flow. The U.S. Geological Survey (USGS) has developed lava -flow hazard zones with a numerical rating of 1 to 9, with 1 having the greatest risk. The Site is within Lava -Flow Hazard Zone 8, which indicates that only a few percent of this area has been covered by lava in the past 10,000 years (USGS, 1992). Hurricane. The State of Hawaii has been affected twice in the past two decades by devastating hurricanes — Hurricane `Iwa, in 1982, and Hurricane `Iniki in 1992. Honoka`a High School, located approximately 5 miles east of the project site, is a designated hurricane -proof Emergency Evacuation Center for the area (State Civil Defense, 2007). Earthquake. The most recent series of earthquakes, with magnitudes of 6.7 and 6.0, occurred at Kiholo Bay on October 15, 2006. The soils within the Site are not particularly susceptible to liquefaction that would require special structural measures to mitigate earthquake damage. Flooding. According to the Flood Insurance Rate Map (FIRM), the project site is designated as Zone X, outside of the 500 -year floodplain (Figure 6). Tsunami and Hurricane Surge. Hawaii Island has been affected by tsunami. Most notably, Hilo Bay and the Hamakua Coast suffered extensive damage from the tsunami of 1946. The Koholalele site is located approximately a mile from the shoreline at a ground elevation of 800+ feet, thus it is outside of the tsunami evacuation area. 3-13 HAMAKUA LAND SALE: KOHOLALELE FINAL ENVIRONMENTAL ASSESSMENT Potential Impacts and Mitigation Measures The Site is not exceptionally vulnerable to natural hazards. Compliance with building code requirements should ensure any new construction should meet earthquake and hurricane standards, especially since the County is in the process of updating the building code to modernize these hazard - resistance standards. 3.7 FLORA A botanical survey of the Site was conducted between October 20 -22, 2009 with the objectives to document plant species on the property; document the status and abundance of each species; determine the presence or likely occurrence of any native flora, particularly any that are Federally listed as Threatened or Endangered; and, determine if the project area contains any special habitats which if lost or altered might result in a significant negative impact on the flora in this part of the island. The Botanical Survey Report was a component of a larger Flora and Fauna Study Assessment and is attached as Appendix A. Most of the Site (approximately 80% of the land area) is dominated by two plant species, Guinea grass (Panicum maximum) and common ironwood (Casuarina equisetfolia). These plants have rapidly colonized the former cane fields since they went out of agricultural production 15 years ago. Three other plants were reported to be "common" on the site; `ohi`a lehua, (Metrosideros polyfnorpha), loquat (Eriobortya japonica) and rough maidenhair fern (Adiantum hispidulum). The `ohi`a was found in the Site's gulches and scattered ridge tops, the loquat was found primarily in gulches and the maidenhair fern were found both in the gulches and in the ironwood forests. In total, 122 plant species were recorded, of these, 18 were native species including nine that are endemic to Hawaii. None of the native species are rare and none are federally listed or protected. A complete list of recorded plants is included with the Flora and Fauna Assessment (Appendix A). Of the non- native plant species found on site, none are of special conservation interest or concern. The Botanical Survey Report findings indicated that the entire site showed signs of pig rooting. The Report found that, "this was especially true in the gulches where every square foot appeared to be heavily rooted. This rooting had the twin effects of severely limiting the diversity of the more delicate native understory species, irhile at the same time aiding the spread of aggressive, shade - tolerant Needs such as the stratirberry guava." Potential Impacts and Mitigation Measures No plant species listed or proposed as threatened or endangered by the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service or the Hawaii State Department of Land and Natural Resources were found. The property has been heavily altered by sugar cane cultivation, and in the last 15 years has been degraded by invasive plant species and feral pigs. Due to the condition of the land, there are no reasons from a botanical standpoint to preserve and keep the Site in public ownership. The best examples of remnant strips of native forest are found in the Site's gulches, which are the areas least likely to be disturbed by any future agricultural use. 3 -14 HAMAKUA LAND SALE: KOHOLALELE FINAL ENVIRONMENTAL ASSESSMENT 3.8 FAUNA A Fauna Survey was conducted in conjunction with the Botanical Survey. The Fauna Survey is found in Appendix A, Flora and Fauna Survey and Assessment. Nine site visits were conducted, including four during the evening to detect occurrence of the Hawaiian hoary bat (`ope `ape `a, Lasiurus cinereus semotus). `Ope`ape`a were detected at high elevation (2,400 ft.), mid- elevation (1,800 ft.) and lowest elevation (800 ft.) portions of the Site. The Fauna Survey presents the observation that the bats appeared to be drawn to the open, mowed base yard located at the Site's lowest elevation adjacent to Mamalahoa Highway. The report describes that evidence of feral pig (Sus Scrofa) was everywhere on the property, and particularly most prevalent in the gulches. Additionally, a few mongoose were sighted. The report indicates that while not sighted, feral cats (felis catus), rats (Rattus spp.) and mice (Mus domesticus), are also likely present on site. In general, the report finds that due to the overwhelming colonization of Guinea grass and ironwood trees, bird life was relatively sparse in both diversity and number. Although native and endemic birds such as the Hawaiian Hawk (`io, Buteo solitarius) and Hawaiian owl (pueo, Asio flammeus sandwichensis) were specifically looked for, none were sighted. While not sighted, the `io and pueo are known to be found in the Hamakua district and could be expected to occasionally use this site. Additionally, no native seabirds such as the threatened Newell's shearwater (Puffinus auricularis newellii) or the Endangered petrel (Pterodronma sandirichensis) were found, nor were any shearwater burrows found. A complete list of the ten, non - native bird species that were sighted is included with the Flora and Fauna Survey (Appendix A). The Fauna Survey also looked for insects which have been listed as Federally Endangered such as Blackburn's sphinx moth (Manduca blackburni) and three endemic picture -wing flies (Drosophila heteroneura), (D. mulli) and D. ochrobasis). None of these insects or their larvae were observed, nor were any of the host plant species normally associated with these insects found on site. The Fauna Survey concludes that due to the low quality of habitat characterized by the dominance of Guinea grass and common ironwood, there is little to attract a diversity of mammal and bird species. The only species that is common throughout the property is the feral pig and the dense vegetation makes it difficult for hunters to be effective at controlling the population. Potential Impacts and Mitigation Measures Due to the degraded habitat, there are no reasons from a faunal standpoint to preserve and keep the Site in public ownership. The Fauna Survey Report does not recommend any special measures be taken with the proposed sale. 3-15 HAMAKUA LAND SALE: KOHOLALELE FINAL ENVIRONMENTAL ASSESSMENT This page intentionally left blank 3 -16 HAMAKUA LAND SALE: KOHOLALELE FINAL ENVIRONMENTAL ASSESSMENT 4.0 ASSESSMENT OF THE HUMAN ENVIRONMENT, POTENTIAL IMPACTS AND MITIGATION MEASURES This chapter provides background information on the existing human environment of the proposed project area. Subject areas addressed include archaeology, historic resources, culture, noise, air quality, visual environment, population and housing, community character, and economic environment. This chapter also addresses the potential impacts of the proposed sale and identifies appropriate mitigation measures to minimize the identified short -term and long- term impacts. 4.1 ARCHAEOLOGICAL AND HISTORIC RESOURCES An Archaeological Inventory Survey (AIS) of the Site was conducted in November and December 2009 to, "identify and evaluate historical properties pursuant to state cultural resources management regulations" (SCS, 2010). Four archaeological sites were documented in the project area (Site 27870, 27871, 27872, and 27873) (Figure 10). All of the sites are Historic - era rock clearing mounds associated with sugarcane agriculture. All of the rock mounds are located along the slopes of gulches, on the outer boundaries of sugarcane fields. No pre- Contact Hawaiian archaeological features or cultural remains were identified on the project area. This is not unexpected as the project area is along a sparsely populated portion of the Hamakua Coast. Since the information recorded in the AIS has adequately ascertained the timing and function of all features at all four sites, the AIS recommended no further work. The field component of the survey consisted of a pedestrian survey, site mapping and hand excavations. The archival component of the survey included database, library and report research into the history of the area as well as searches for archaeological studies of the site and immediately surrounding area. Information that would help illustrate the prehistoric conditions of the site and surrounding area are limited due to the site's remote location and inconvenient access to marine areas. In published mo `olelo, Koholalele, translated as, "leaping whale" is mentioned in the Heart Stirring Story of Ka -Miki. This story was published between 1914 and 1917 although the story is set in the 1300's. No other mention of Koholalele was found in published mo `olelo. Early historic accounts of the Hamakua District including the travels of William Ellis and Isabella Bird do not specifically mention the ahupua`a of Koholalele, but do provide a glimpse into the physical and cultural landscape of the time. Bird's 1872 journals of a trip on horseback from Onomea to the Waipi`o Valley describes a series of sparsely populated and densely vegetated gulches that were highly challenging for horses to traverse. Bird also describes the sugar plantation of Kaiwiki ( Onomea Plantation), which is east of Koholalele. She notes the beauty of the sugarcane fields; describes the sugar making process; and observes the transport of cane to the mill via streams and the hauling of the product by mule down to the sea. Between 1869 and 1880, seven sugar companies were established along the Hamakua Coast. The project site was most recently owned by Hamakua Sugar, formerly the Davies Sugar Company which was a merger of the Laupahoehoe Sugar Company and Honoka`a Sugar Company. The Hamakua Sugar Company was originally known as the Hamakua Mill Company. The site itself was in sugar production for over 100 years prior to 1994. 4 -1 HAMAKUA LAND SALE: KOHOLALELE FINAL ENVIRONMENTAL ASSESSMENT Due to the site's long history of field clearing, sugar growing and harvest, there is a lack of archaeological sites, features and artifacts. The archaeological inventory resulted in locating four archaeological sites consisting of eight rock mounds, all a result of rock clearing for field preparation. The four sites are all located on the north half of the site within an unnamed tributary gulch to Koholalele Gulch. The rock mounds are all loosely constructed piles of angular and subangular large cobbles and small boulders. None of the mounds showed evidence of stacking or facing and bulldozer push could be found at some of features. In addition to the AIS, comments to the Draft Environmental Assessment included a community member's research into Koholalele. The comment letter and accompanying research is included in Appendix E (Peralto). The research was provided to, "add to the historical information already provided in the Draft EA, for the period of time prior to 1890. It is not meant to serve as a complete history of this important ahupua`a ". The research includes a timeline relating to events relating to Manini heiau which was located in the ahupua`a of Koholalele, including, Umi's use of the heiau before overthrowing his brother, Hakau; Kamehameha Pai`ea's ceremony in the late 1700's and the heiau's eventual destruction in the mid- 1800's (Peralto, Appendix E). As it relates to Manini heiau, Kalakaua writes, "the canoe of Waahia was stranded on the beach at Koholalele, on the Island of Hawaii. Not far off was the old heiau of Manini" ( Kalakaua 1990:190). The text does not provide an exact location of the heiau, but it's indication that the heiau was "not far off' from the canoe stranding suggests that the heiau was likely along the coast. Excavations at the eight features found on the project area lands confirmed that there are no subsurface features below the mounds. The AIS concludes that the eight mounds were formed for field preparation and no further testing is recommended. 4 -2 HAMAKUA LAND SALE: KOHOLALELE FINAL ENVIRONMENTAL ASSESSMENT Figure 10, Archaeological Features 251000mt. 27,2410D- E.

If the site is subsequently used for agricultural purposes, it is not expected that crop production will take place within the gulches. Thus, it is likely that the rock mounds will remain undisturbed should agricultural uses commence. The AIS conducted for this assessment concludes that each of the features have been fully documented and thus, recommends no further archaeological work be conducted for the sites. In the future, land owners should be aware that in the event that archaeological discoveries are made during earth disturbing activities or construction, work should cease and further coordination with the State Historic Preservation Division should ensue. Should human remains be found, Rules of Practice and Procedure Relating to Burial Sites and Human Remains (HAR Title 13, Subtitle 13, Chapter 300) should be followed. 4.2 CULTURAL RESOURCES A Cultural Impact Assessment (CIA) in compliance with Act 50 of the State of Hawaii (2000) was conducted in order to identify and address effects of the proposed land sale on Hawai`i's culture as well as traditional and customary rights. Preparation of the CIA followed the guidelines provided by the Office of Environmental Quality in 1997. This included documenting methods for selection of informants and agencies interviewed; following ethnographic interview procedures; reviewing historical materials; and, an analysis of the potential effects of the proposal on cultural resources. The CIA found that the project site was awarded to Ka`ilakanoa (LCA 26 -B, R.P. 4527) as part of a single large Land Commission Award. Ka`ilakanoa was an ali`i from Maui that has thought to have received control of the ahupua`a from Hewahewa, the kahuna nui of Kamehameha Pai`ea. Seven kuleana plots were also awarded within the ahupua`a: Kaaiawaawa (LCA 9844), Kaikuaana (LCA 8298), Moano (LCA 10174), Nuumalolo (LCA 10546), Puahewa (LCA 9843), Pumanamana (LCA 10601), Kookooku (LCA 8297) (See Peralto, Exhibit E). These kuleana plots are makai of the project site. As described in the previous section of this report, there is very limited pre- historic information about the site and surrounding lands. The CIA reports that the Koholalele ahupua`a and surrounding lands were thought to be sparsely populated due to poor access to marine resources and distance from population centers such as Hilo, Waimea and Waipi`o. In published mo `olelo, Koholalele, translated as, "leaping whale" is mentioned in the Heart Stirring Story of Ka -Miki. This story was published between 1914 and 1917 although the story is set in the 1300's. No other mention of Koholalele was found in published mo `olelo. More information is available regarding the sugar industry which affected plantation lands such as the site and surrounding area. The site was in sugarcane production for approximately 100 years until 1994 when Hamakua Sugar closed its doors. The CIA provides a history of sugar in Hawaii, citing references to some of the earliest mentions of sugar production in the early 1800's. Large -scale sugar production on the Island of Hawaii was in operation by 1839. At that .. HAMAKUA LAND SALE: KOHOLALELE FINAL ENVIRONMENTAL ASSESSMENT time, growing, harvesting and processing of sugar was rudimentary, relying on Hawaiian labor and the power of water, oxen, mule and horse. The industry grew through the 1800's as a result of increased demand from the U.S., a reduction in import duties, introduction of new cane varieties and importation of labor. The Hamakua Mill Company, which eventually evolves to be the Hamakua Sugar Company was founded in 1877 by Theo Davies and Charles Notley, Sr. Notley, a British businessman originally acquired a lease for the ahupua`a in 1872 from P. Nahaolelua, heir of Ka`ilakanoa (See Peralto, Exhibit E). Following the death of P. Nahaolelua, the land was foreclosed upon as Nahaolelua's heir was not able to maintain the mortgage. The land was transferred to a German sugar planter, Hermann A. Widemann in 1878. Throughout, Notley maintained a lease for the land and in 1882 purchased it from Widemann (Peralto, Exhibit E). In addition to Notley's intest in sugar, he also formed Kuka`iau Ranch with John M. Horner in the mauka lands of the Kuka `iau and Koholalele (Peralto, Exhibit E). The Kuka `iau Ranch lands did not include the project area lands. By 1910, the Hamakua Mill Company had 4,800 acres planted in sugarcane; employed more than 600 people; and, had a warehouse and landing below the cliff at Koholalele. Five individuals who either worked for the Hamakua Sugar Company or live in the area and have knowledge of the site were contacted for interviews. None of the cultural informants had knowledge of past or ongoing cultural practices on the project site. Additionally, letters of inquiry were sent to organizations whose expertise would include the project area. Apart from a letter acknowledging receipt of the letter of inquiry, no organizations responded with information concerning the potential for cultural resources to occur in the project area or suggestions for further contacts. Public notices were also published in Ka Wai Ola, The Honolulu Advertiser and the Hawaii Tribune Herald. The CIA concludes, "Based on organizational response as well as archival research, it is reasonable to conclude that, pursuant to Act 50, the exercise of native Hawaiian rights, or any ethnic group, related to gathering, access or other customary activities will not be affected by development activities on this parcel. Because there were no cultural activities identified within the project area, there are no adverse effects." Potential Impacts and Mitigation Measures Based on the conclusion of the CIA, no impacts to cultural resources are expected if the land is sold. Similarly, if the land is subdivided into agricultural lots and developed for agricultural uses, no impacts to cultural resources are expected. No mitigation measures are proposed. 4 -5 HAMAKUA LAND SALE: KOHOLALELE FINAL ENVIRONMENTAL ASSESSMENT Figure 11, Land Court Application Map \051 5�w ',I n• . to ml HAMAIWA LAND SALE: I<OHOLALELE FINAL ENVIRONMENTAL ASSESSMENT 4.3 NOISE Currently, the project site is undeveloped land. No significant noise is generated on site, and ambient noise in the area emanates from wind, wildlife, and traffic along Mamalahoa Highway. It is anticipated that land uses after the sale of the site will be consistent with current zoning and, therefore, consistent with current uses on adjacent properties. Potential Impacts and Mitigation Measures Before the sale of the lands, traffic on various access roads in the project vicinity will likely increase slightly as potential property purchasers inspect the site. This will cause minimal, short - term, intermittent increases in noise levels. The sale itself will have no long -term noise impacts on the project vicinity. Future land uses and activities, particularly construction, would have to comply with Chapter 11- 46, HAR, regarding Community Noise Control. 4.4 AIR QUALITY Air quality in Hawaii is among the best in the nation, and criteria pollutant levels remain well below state and federal ambient air quality standards. The State Department of Health, Clean Air Branch monitors the ambient air in Hawaii and has established a statewide system of monitoring stations whose primary purpose is ensuring that air quality standards are met. Hawaii Island is regularly affected by VOG from Mount Kilauea. Due to the prevailing northeast winds, the site is less likely to be affected by VOG than sites on the south or Kona coasts. However, Kona winds can circulate VOG up the Hamakua Coast in the site's vicinity. Generally, air quality is affected by regional and local climate together with the amount and type of human activity in any given location. Federal and state ambient air quality standards have been established to regulate six parameters: particulate matter, sulfur dioxide, nitrogen dioxide, carbon monoxide, ozone, and lead. No state or county air- quality monitoring stations exist in the vicinity of the site. Air quality in the vicinity of the site may be affected by pollutants from widely dispersed agricultural sources, such as concentrations of cattle and fugitive mists from infrequent spraying for agricultural pests. Other sources are emissions from occasional vehicular traffic on area roads and from farm machinery. Potential Impacts and Mitigation Measures There are no large, stationary sources of air pollutants and no major industries that would contribute to air pollution within, or in the vicinity of, the project area. The sale of the site involves no development or land alteration, and thus, will not affect air quality in the vicinity. WA HAMAIWA LAND SALE: I<OHOLALELE FINAL ENVIRONMENTAL ASSESSMENT Potential agricultural uses, such as pesticide spraying, would need to be undertaken in accordance with applicable state and federal regulations. 4.5 VISUAL RESOURCES AND OPEN SPACE The natural beauty of Hawaii is universally recognized and considered to be a significant and valuable asset. Various portions of the site offer views of the ocean. Since the last sugar harvest, ironwood trees have come to dominate the site's landscape and obscure views. Greater opportunities for views of the ocean, the upper slopes and summit of Mauna Kea, and the richly vegetated, broad lower slopes descending to the coast may be possible from the site if thinning or clearing took place. In some mauka areas, near boundaries with private land and the Hamakua Forest Reserve, there are views of native forest containing koa and `ohi`a trees. The Koholalele property is not listed in the General Plan as a site of natural beauty. Potential Impacts and Mitigation Measures The sale of the site involves no development or land alteration, and thus, will not affect visual resources in the vicinity. Should future land owners choose to construct farm dwellings or agricultural structures, the heights for a residential structure within the agricultural district are limited to 35 -feet and 45 -feet for all other structures. The height limit ensures that visual resources will not be greatly affected should future land owners decide to construct farm dwellings and related agricultural structures. 4.6 SOCIO- ECONOMIC CHARACTERISTICS 4.6.1 Community Profile At the time of the 2000 U.S. census, Hawaii County's population was 148,677, having grown from 120,317 in 1990. At same time, 571 people lived in the nearest Census Designated Place (CDP), Pa`auilo down from 587 in 1990 (DBEDT 2006). In general, the Pa `auilo CDP is slightly younger than Hawai `i County as a whole, and has a racial mix that is significantly less Caucasian and significantly more Asian. Households in the CDP roughly correspond with household types, except that households are slightly larger and more likely to include individuals 18 and younger and 65 and older. In 2000, the CDP also had a higher instance of occupied housing units than Hawaii County as a whole. Median household income was also slightly lower than the County as a whole.

Potential Impacts and Mitigation Measures The proposed sale of the site will not directly introduce new residents to the project area. Although the sale of the lands will not directly affect population, there are potential impacts to m HAMAKUA LAND SALE: KOHOLALELE FINAL ENVIRONMENTAL ASSESSMENT population based on possible future uses of the lands, as allowed by existing zoning designations for the lands. Based on the most intense development scenario under current zoning, 20 farm dwellings could potentially be built on the site after the sale. The Site is zoned A -40a, allowing dwellings at a minimum lot size of 40 acres. Assuming 20% of the 1040 -acre Site would be used for roadways, the Site could be further subdivided into a total of 20 lots. This hypothetical number of lots also assumes that water is or will become available. Using the average household size of 2.99 for the Pa`auilo CDP, approximately 60 persons could potentially be added to the population of Pa`auilo after the site is sold if the site is subdivided and a dwelling is constructed on each parcel. However, it is not expected that 20 dwellings would be constructed because there are no plans to provide water upgrades to the parcels. 4.6.2 Housing There are currently no homes on the site. The homes that exist near the project site are rural lots, accessed from Antone De Luz Road. A more dense concentration of housing (Kuka`iau) exists east of the site along Mamalahoa Highway. The proposed sale of the site itself will not directly affect the existing housing inventory in the area. However, purchasers of the lands could construct farm dwellings on some of the properties. Based on the most intense development scenario under current A -40a zoning, the number of potential farm dwellings that could be built is 20. Potential Impacts and Mitigation Measures Sale of the site will not directly affect the housing inventory in the Koholalele area. Although an increase in agricultural activity would be beneficial, the lack of water and infrastructure will probably limit the intensity of such agricultural uses and it is assumed that any need for housing will be reasonably accommodated within the specific parcel or by existing housing in the area. Therefore, no adverse impacts to housing are expected, and no mitigation measures are planned with the sale of this site. 4.6.3 The Economy and Employment The Hawaii County General Plan (County of Hawaii 2005a) discusses the economy of the Hamakua District, of which the Koholalele property is a part. Despite the closing of Hamakua Sugar in 1994, the population of the Hamakua region has grown moderately, primarily due to the development of major resorts in the neighboring district of Kohala. The economy has come to depend on cattle, macadamia nuts, and diversified agriculture. There are numerous cattle ranches in Hamakua and several varieties of crops are grown in addition to macadamia nuts. Investments in the timber industry have also been made in Hamakua, including a large eucalyptus plantation and a community -based forestry imitative at O `okala. Specialty crops grown in mauka Pa`auilo near the site include vanilla (Hawaiian Vanilla Company) and `awapuhi (John Paul Mitchell Systems). Other crops grown in the Hamakua area are taro, watermelon, tomatoes, ginger, kava, coffee, and other vegetables. Also important to the recovering economy of Hamakua is the work of the CTAHR Hamakua Research Station located in the area of the site that tests and develops crops and livestock to succeed in the mauka Hamakua environment. 4 -10 HAMAIWA LAND SALE: I<OHOLALELE FINAL ENVIRONMENTAL ASSESSMENT Manufacturing in the area is limited to processing agricultural crops, although a number of entities have been pursuing development of co- generation power plant on the Hamakua Coast (Pacific Business News, January 2, 2009). The Hamakua District also encompasses the astronomy facilities at Mauna Kea. According to the Hawaii General Plan, astronomy has contributed over $619,000,000 to the State's economy and employs 270 permanent positions. These numbers are expected to increase should the Thirty -Meter Telescope (TMT) proposed by a consortium of universities, receive entitlements and be constructed (Hawaii Tribune Herald, 2009). Table 2 Employment Status Subject Pa`auilo CDP Hawaii County Number Percent Number Percent Population 16 years and older 444 100 114,647 100.0 In labor force 250 56.3 70,791 61.7 Employed Civilian Population 223 100 64,797 100 Service Occupations 64 28.7 14,403 22.2 Management and Professional Occupations 36 16.1 19,607 30.2 Sales and Office Occupations 59 26.5 16,309 25.1 Farming, Fishing and Forestry Occupations 13 5.8 2,449 3.8 Construction, Extraction and Maintenance 23 10.3 6,454 9.9 Occupations Production, Transportation and Material 28 12.6 5,757 8.9 Moving Occupations Median household income $34,659 — $39,805 — Of the residents aged 16 years or older recorded for Pa `auilo CDP in the 2000 census, approximately 56 percent were in the labor force (DBEDT 2005). Of the employed civilian population over the age of 16, 28.7 percent worked in service occupations, 16.1 percent in management and professional occupations and 26.5 percent in sales and office occupations. Smaller numbers worked in production, transportation, and materials moving (12.6 percent); construction (10.3 percent); and in farming, fishing and forestry (5.8 percent). Median household income in the year 2000 was $34,659 for the Pa`auilo CDP. This compares with a median income of $39,805 for Hawaii County and $49,820 for the state (DBEDT 2005). For the year 2009, the Hawaii County unemployment rate was reported to be 9.6 percent in December, with a statewide unemployment rate of 6.2 percent for the same month. Thus, the employment status of those in Pa`auilo and surrounding areas may have been affected by the recent economic downturn. Potential Impacts and Mitigation Measures Sale of the site itself will not significantly affect economic conditions in the community. However, the future potential agricultural use of the lands can only enhance the agricultural economic base of the Hamakua area. The potential increase in agricultural activity would likely create long term agricultural related jobs together with short -term, construction - related jobs resulting from the potential construction of farm dwellings. Should any of the purchasers decide 4-11 HAMAKUA LAND SALE: KOHOLALELE FINAL ENVIRONMENTAL ASSESSMENT to construct farm dwellings, local businesses would also benefit from an increase in the demand for goods and services due to a slight increase in population. In light of the economic impact of the closing of Hamakua Sugar, returning the site to agricultural use consistent with its agricultural zoning would benefit the local economy. 4 -12 HAMAI<UA LAND SALE: I<OHOLALELE FINAL ENVIRONMENTAL ASSESSMENT 5.0 ASSESSMENT OF THE EXISTING INFRASTRUCTURE AND PUBLIC SERVICES, AND POTENTIAL IMPACTS AND MITIGATION MEASURES This chapter discusses the existing infrastructure of the project area and the proposed infrastructure improvements. Mitigation measures have also been identified to address potential impacts. 5.1 TRANSPORTATION FACILITIES Existing Roadways. The site is accessed by private roads from Mamalahoa Highway (Route 19). Mamalahoa Highway is a two -lane State Highway with a paved shoulder. It is the major transportation route between communities on the Hamakua Coast south to Hilo and northwest to Waimea and beyond to Kona. There is a network of unnamed, private roads on site. Formerly used for access to the sugar plantation's fields, these roads have now become densely overgrown with Guinea grass. One access road continues to be used for maintenance associated with the power line that runs through the site. There are no existing County or homestead roads on the Site. Potential Impacts and Mitigation Measures Traffic at the Site's access point to Mamalahoa may increase somewhat, depending on future land uses such as agricultural uses and construction of new farm dwellings. Impacts are not, however, expected to be significant. Legal access to Parcel 1 is by a private road easement. Any further subdivision of Parcel 1 or 5 would require additional road improvements, including any necessary upgrades to the intersection with Mamalahoa. 5.2 WATER SUPPLY FACILITIES The Site is within the service area of the County's Pa`auilo Water System. A single well and two storage tanks serve the system; however, a one -way, normally closed connection is available to receive supply from the Haina Water Sytem if necessary. A 2.5 inch County of Hawaii Department of Water Supply (DWS) water line is located in Mamalahoa Highway. One service to the Site exists, which the County plans to allocate to Parcel 5. The DWS has stated that they will not allow additional services from its existing water line until extensive water system improvements such as a back -up well are made. Should water become available, future service to Parcel 5 or subsequent subdivision will require an Elevation Agreement since the lots would be at an elevation where DWS cannot ensure adequate pressure. 5 -1 HAMAKUA LAND SALE: KOHOLALELE FINAL ENVIRONMENTAL ASSESSMENT Potential Impacts and Mitigation Measures The existing water situation not allowing additional hookups to the Pa`auilo Water System means that any further subdivision would have to be approved through a water variance pursuant to Planning Department Rule 22. The purpose of Rule 22 is "to provide criteria for the granting or denial of variances from sec. 23 -84 of the Subdivision Code, which requires a water system meeting with the requirements of the Department of Water Supply (DWS). It applies to requests for subdivisions that propose to rely on rain catchment for their water supply, on agriculturally - zoned property" (Planning Department Rules, §22 -1). To be granted a variance under this rule, the site must receive a minimum average annual rainfall of 60 ", and a maximum of 6 lots may be approved. Therefore, until DWS allows additional hookups, further subdivision relying on water catchments would be limited to six lots, meaning the maximum number of lots on the Site would be seven (Parcel 5 that has the existing water allocation, plus the 6 lots created by water variance that would rely on water catchments). 5 -2 Figure 12, Aquifers HUALALAI 18 MGD HUALALAI 38 MGD HAMAKUA LAND SALE: KOHOLALELE FINAL ENVIRONMENTAL ASSESSMENT KOHALA 9 13 MGD F KOHALA 110 MGD KOHALA 17 MGD E.

The Department of Health's (DOH) Critical Wastewater Disposal Area (CWDA) map determines whether a cesspool would be an acceptable individual wastewater system. The Site is located within a non - critical area that allows cesspools (see Figure 11). In a non - critical area, cesspool leachate would not pose any threat to groundwater aquifers or nearshore coastal water quality. The design and construction of the cesspool would need to meet DOH's standards. Potential Impacts and Mitigation Measures Because the Site is in a non - critical area miles away from the coastline, the maximum hypothetical density of 20 additional farm dwellings allowed under existing zoning would not significantly impact the groundwater quality or nearshore water quality. Building permits could be issued using cesspools, which are substantially more affordable than septic systems. In short, wastewater disposal is not a constraint to additional development on the Site and no mitigation measures would be necessary for purposes of wastewater impacts, provided that any cesspools are constructed in conformance with the Department of Health's standards. 5 -4 HAMAKUA LAND SALE: KOHOLALELE FINAL ENVIRONMENTAL ASSESSMENT Figure 13, Critical Wastewater Disposal Area LEGEND KoholAlele Site Critical Wastewater Disposal Area Class KOHOLALELE - CWDA Cesspool-1 HAMAKUA LAND SALE Cesspool-5 0—ty of Hawaii NORTH LINEAR SCALE (FEET) 0 1,500 31900 PLANU CI- HAWAII uv Yy� 0 NON -CWDA So— Slate of Hawa i �eparlment of Health Disdaimer This graphic has heen prepared for general plannino purposes nnly .'ItK I I \L 5'; 111 yebruary M10 5 -5 HAMAKUA LAND SALE: KOHOLALELE FINAL ENVIRONMENTAL ASSESSMENT 5.4 DRAINAGE FACILITIES There are no stormwater drainage facilities (e.g., injection wells or sumps) on the Site. Precipitation is absorbed by vegetation, infiltrates into the soils or surface flows to the three gulches that traverse the Site. Potential Impacts and Mitigation Measures Drainage is not a concern or constraint that requires special attention in the sale (e.g., covenant or disclosure). Any further subdivision would require meeting the County's Storm Drainage Standards that would mitigate impacts to neighbors and avoid non -point source pollution pursuant to §23 -92 of the Subdivision Code. 5.5 SOLID WASTE DISPOSAL FACILITIES According to the document, Update to the Integrated Solid Waste Management Plan for the County of Hawai `i, in the year 2002, the total amount of solid waste managed by the county system was approximately 160,000 tons (Harding ESE, 2002). The two landfills on the island are the South Hilo Landfill and the Pu`uanahulu Landfill. The estimated lifespan of the Pu`uanahulu Landfill, with a 15 percent diversion rate and receiving only West Hawaii waste, is until the year 2049. If the Pu`uanahulu Landfill receives all of the county's waste, and if planned recycling and resource recovery efforts progress (potentially increasing the diversion rate to 45 percent), then the Pu `uanahulu Landfill has capacity until the year 2045. Additionally, the proposed waste reduction technology in East Hawai `i could potentially expand the Pu `uanahulu Landfill beyond the year 2049 (County of Hawai `i, 2004). The nearest transfer station is at Pa`auilo. The station accommodates household waste and offers recycling facilities. From the transfer station, solid waste is hauled to the County landfill at Pu`uanahulu. Green waste facilities are located at the Hilo and Kealakehe/Kailua Transfer stations. Potential Impacts and Mitigation Measures The proposed sale of the site will have no direct affect on county solid waste disposal facilities. Future use of the lands could add slightly (less than 1 percent) to the county's solid -waste stream. The overall daily per capita municipal solid waste generation for Hawaii County is 6.2 pounds (Harding ESE, 2002). Using the average household size of 2.99 persons for the Pa`auilo CDP, approximately 60 persons could potentially be added to the population after the lands are sold, should each new land owner choose to construct a farm dwelling. If the average amount of solid waste generated per person, per day is 6.2 pounds, then one can assume that approximately 67.66 tons of solid waste will be generated per year from this project site, should each new land owner choose to construct a farm dwelling in the future and each home is occupied by approximately 2.99 persons. Demand on the Honoka`a transfer station could increase somewhat, but demand on the Pu `uanahulu Landfill would not significantly increase. However, it should be noted that the waste generation could be substantially less if future purchasers decide not to establish dwellings on their agricultural properties. 5 -6 HAMAKUA LAND SALE: KOHOLALELE FINAL ENVIRONMENTAL ASSESSMENT 5.6 ELECTRICAL FACILITIES Currently, HELCO has a 69KV Transmission line and a Distribution line running along Mamalahoa Highway within the right -of -way. A Distribution line also runs mauka through the site. According to HELCO planning staff, the Distribution line running through the site is not within an easement. HELCO's survey department is in the process of preparing documentation for a proposed 50 -foot wide easement along the pole line (25 -feet on either side of the centerline). Potential Impacts and Mitigation Measures The proposed sale of the site will have no direct affect on the demand for electrical services. Future land uses may require electricity service. Initial conversations with HELCO planning staff indicate that connections to the mauka Distribution line could be made, however, it will require a facility upgrade to the pole lines and likely the overhead conductors as well. Other options would be the use of off - the -grid alternatives such as generators and photovoltaic devices. 5.7 EDUCATIONAL FACILITIES Public Schools. The site is located in the Honoka`a Complex. The nearest elementary school is Pa`auilo Elementary & Intermediate School. The site is served by Honoka`a Intermediate and High School. Official enrollment count for the 2008 -2009 school year was 270 total students at Pa`auilo Elementary and 790 total students at Honoka`a Intermediate and High School. Potential Impacts and Mitigation Measures The proposed sale of the site itself will not directly affect the existing population or introduce school -aged children to the area. Should the site be subdivided into 20 lots, each with dwellings constructed on the Site, an estimated 8 public school students could be anticipated. This estimate is based on the student generation rate used for calculating the nearby West Hawaii School Impact Fee District (DOE Planning Staff, 2009) and illustrated in the following table. Table 3 Potential DOE Students For the 2008 -2009 school year, capacity at the Pa`auilo Elementary and Intermediate School was 355 students. Enrollment for the 2009 -2010 school year was 276 students and the projection for the 2014 -2015 school year is 308 students. For Honoka`a Intermediate and High School, the 2008 -2009 capacity was 931 students, with 764 enrolled in the 2009 -2010 year and 917 5 -7 DOE multiplier for single family dwellings Number of Students Elementary .17 3.4 Intermediate .08 1.6 High School .10 2 TOTAL - 7 For the 2008 -2009 school year, capacity at the Pa`auilo Elementary and Intermediate School was 355 students. Enrollment for the 2009 -2010 school year was 276 students and the projection for the 2014 -2015 school year is 308 students. For Honoka`a Intermediate and High School, the 2008 -2009 capacity was 931 students, with 764 enrolled in the 2009 -2010 year and 917 5 -7 HAMAKUA LAND SALE: KOHOLALELE FINAL ENVIRONMENTAL ASSESSMENT projected out to the 2014 -2015 school year. Were the site be developed at a density of 20 single family dwellings, the number of students generated would not exceed local school capacity. 5.8 POLICE PROTECTION The Koholalele area is served by the Honoka`a District Police Station, which is located approximately five miles from the site at 45 -3400 Mamane Street, in Honoka`a. The Honoka`a police station has a staff of 13 Patrol Officers, one Community Police Officer, two Sergeants, one Police Operations Clerk and the District Captain. Potential Impacts and Mitigation Measures The proposed sale of the site will not directly introduce new residents to the project area and is not anticipated to increase demand for police services. If purchasers of the lands construct farm dwellings on each of the lots of record, the population is estimated to increase by 60 persons. Relative to the total population served by the Honoka`a police station, the potential increase that would be attributable to the sale of the site is small and not expected to significantly increase the demand for police services. 5.9 FIRE PROTECTION Fire protective service and rescue services for the Hawaii County are provided by the Hawaii County Fire Department, which operates 20 regular fire stations and 22 volunteer fire stations. One fire station (at Pohakuloa) is federally operated. The 20 regular fire stations and three of the volunteer stations (Laupahoehoe, Pahala, and Na`alehu) provide 24 -hour fire protection and emergency medical services. Emergency medical ambulance services are contracted by the State Department of Health. Fire Department personnel provide basic and advanced life support. Emergency medical services account for 75 percent of all Fire Department incidences. All fire personnel who provide advanced and basic life support possess appropriate certification and licenses (Hawai`i County 2005). The nearest station to the site is located at 45 -3388 Mamane Street, in Honoka`a, approximately 7.5 miles from the project lands. The site is within the County of Hawaii response area. Forest Reserve lands mauka of the site are within a cooperative response area between the County and the State of Hawaii, DLNR, Division of Forestry and Wildlife (DOFAW). Potential Impacts and Mitigation Measures The proposed sale of the site will not directly increase the need for fire and emergency services in the vicinity. If purchasers of the lands construct farm dwellings on each of the lots of record, the population is estimated to increase by 60 persons. The potential increase that would be attributable to the sale of the site is small and not expected to significantly increase the demand for fire and emergency services. Further subdivision would require all- weather roads to enable access by emergency vehicles. WIP HAMAKUA LAND SALE: KOHOLALELE FINAL ENVIRONMENTAL ASSESSMENT 5.10 HOSPITALS AND HEALTHCARE FACILITIES Hale Ho`ola Hamakua long -term care facility (formerly Honoka`a Hospital), at 45 -547 Plumaria, Honoka`a is the primary healthcare facility serving the Hamakua District. Located approximately 8 miles from the site, Hale Ho `ola Hamakua is an acute and long -term care hospital with 50 beds (4 acute and long -term care and 46 skilled nursing and intermediate care), and 24 -hour emergency room services. North Hawaii Community Hospital also serves the area. Located in Waimea, at 67 -1125 Mamalahoa Highway, approximately 21 miles from the project area, North Hawaii Community Hospital has 39 acute -care beds and offers 24 -hour emergency service (NHCW 2009). Potential Impacts and Mitigation Measures The proposed sale of the site will not directly increase the need for healthcare in the vicinity. If purchasers of the lands construct farm dwellings on each of the lots of record, the population is estimated to increase by 60 persons. The potential increase that would be attributable to the sale of the site is small and not expected to significantly increase the demand for healthcare facilities in the area. 5.11 RECREATIONAL FACILITIES The following recreational facilities are located in the vicinity of the site: • Kukuihaele Park • Kukuihaele Landing • Haina Park in Honoka `a • Honoka`a Landing • Honoka`a Park • Honoka`a Rodeo Arena • Pa`auhau Landing • Kalopa State Recreation Area • Pa`auilo Gym/Park • Koholalele Landing The site is also adjacent to Hamakua Forest Reserves land. Potential Impacts and Mitigation Measures The proposed sale of the site itself will not directly affect the population in the project vicinity, access to Hamakua Forest Reserves land, nor will it dramatically increase the demand for community services recreational or public facilities. m HAMAKUA LAND SALE: KOHOLALELE FINAL ENVIRONMENTAL ASSESSMENT This page intentionally left blank 5 -10 HAMAKUA LAND SALE: KOHOLALELE FINAL ENVIRONMENTAL ASSESSMENT 6.0 RELATIONSHIP TO POLICIES, PLANS AND CONTROLS This section describes the State of Hawaii and County of Hawaii land use plans, policies, and ordinances relevant to the proposed sale of the site. 6.1 STATE OF HAWAII 6.1.1 Chapter 205, Hawaii Revised Statutes — State Land Use Law The State Land Use Law establishes the Land Use Commission (LUC) and gives this body the authority to designate all lands in the state into one of four districts: Urban, Rural, Agricultural, or Conservation. The Site's district designation is Agriculture and is adjacent to lands designated Agriculture, Conservation, and at Mamalahoa Highway, Urban (Figure 14, State Land Use Districts). No change to the State Land Use Designation for the Site is proposed. 6.1.2 Section 205A, Hawaii Revised Statutes — Coastal Zone Management Program The Coastal Zone Management Area as defined in Chapter 205A, Hawaii Revised Statutes (HRS), includes all the lands of the state. The objectives of the Hawaii Coastal Zone Management (CZM) Program, as set forth in Chapter 205A, include the protection and maintenance of the State's coastal resources. As the Coastal Zone is defined in Chapter 205A, the site is within the Coastal Zone Management Area; however, the lands are located a mile from the shoreline, and its lowest elevation is approximately 800 feet above mean sea level. The following paragraphs discuss the project's relationship to the objectives and policies of the Coastal Zone Management Program. The proposed project site is approximately one mile from the shore and is not expected to have any adverse impacts on Coastal Recreational Resources (205A- 2(1)), Coastal Ecosystems (205A- 2(4)), or Beach Protection (205A- 2(9)). For the same reason, the site will not be subject to potential impacts from Coastal Hazards (205A- 2(6)). The proposed sale of the lands will not adversely impact the area's Historic Resources (205A- 2(2)). Scientific Consultant Services, Inc. (2009) conducted an archaeological inventory survey of the project area Four feature sites consisting of eight rock mounds were inventoried, evaluated and determined to be associated with Historic -era sugarcane field clearing. No impacts to these features are expected with sale of the land. The proposed action will not significantly affect the Scenic and Open Space (205A -2(2)) quality of the project area. The site is currently uncultivated open space and forest. After the sale, the lands are expected to return to agricultural use, and some farm dwellings or farm structures may be built on them. Sale of the site is expected to have a beneficial effect on Economic Use (205A- 2(5)). The site is located in an area has long been an agricultural community. The sale will make it possible to put these non - coastal lands back into agricultural use after having been fallow for more than a 6 -1 HAMAKUA LAND SALE: KOHOLALELE FINAL ENVIRONMENTAL ASSESSMENT decade. The land sale will provide opportunities for residents who wish to be in agriculture to obtain land for that purpose and enable the production of valuable agricultural commodities. Regarding the Hawaii CZM Program's goals to promote Public Participation in coastal management (205A- 2(g)), this EA reports and publishes the potential short- and long -term impacts of the proposed sale of the site. Prior to, and throughout the development of this EA, various agencies (or agency documents) were consulted (see consultation list in Section 9.0). Additionally, several members of the community were interviewed for the Cultural Resources Impact Assessment. Managing Development is appropriately the role of those State and County agencies assigned the responsibility of implementing the provisions of Chapter 205A, HRS, and the Coastal Zone Management Program. A major component of the Hawaii Coastal Zone Management Program is the designation of Special Management Areas (SMA). The Counties determine the extent of the Special Management Areas within their jurisdictions and must approve and issue a permit for any development within the SMA. The site is not located within Hawaii County SMA, and no permit will be required. 6 -2 HAMAKUA LAND SALE: KOHOLALELE FINAL ENVIRONMENTAL ASSESSMENT Figure 14, State Land Use Districts LEGEND L... : KoholaleleSite State Land Use Districts District KO H O L A L E L E Agriculture HAMAKUA LAND SALE ® Conservation County of liawai'i IS'._%'•.ND OF HAWAILI -NORTH LIN Er..R SCALE iEE FT) Urban ;c•e aooc• bccc• OVA' -- %111i Source: Slate Land Use Commission (2009) Disclaimer.

The following subsections present relevant elements of these land use plans and ordinances, accompanied with a description of how each will be addressed during the course of the proposed project. 6.2.1 General Plan The County of Hawai `i General Plan (General Plan) was adopted in February 2005 and is a policy document for the long -range comprehensive development of the Island of Hawaii. The plan provides direction for the future growth of the County and offers policy statements that embody the expressed goals for present and future generations. The General Plan provides the legal basis for all subdivision, zoning, and related ordinances and for the initiation and authorization of all public improvements and projects. Specific goals and policies applicable to the proposed sale of the site are discussed below. Natural Beauty Goals: (a) Maximize opportunities for present and future generations to appreciate and enjoy natural and scenic beauty. (b) Protect scenic vistas and vietir planes from becoming obstructed. Discussion: The Koholalele property is not listed in the General Plan as a site exhibiting exceptional natural beauty. Nonetheless, the site offers views of the ocean, and from higher elevations, potentially Mauna Kea. However, the density of ironwood trees on the site obscures most views. As previously discussed, the sale and subsequent use of the lands (assumed to be agricultural) is expected to preserve and potentially enhance scenic places and vistas in the area. County building height limitations will maintain maximum dwelling heights at 35 feet, with farm buildings limited to 45 feet, and selective clearing of the ironwood trees which have grown to dominate the landscape would serve to open up the site. Environmental Quality Goals (b) Maintain and, if feasible, improve the existing environmental quality of the island. Policies (a) Take positive action to further maintain the quality of the environment. 6 -5 HAMAKUA LAND SALE: KOHOLALELE FINAL ENVIRONMENTAL ASSESSMENT Discussion: Sale of the site involves no construction or development activity. The lands are expected to retain their current Agriculture zoning after the sale, and no significant environmental impacts are expected from this action. Natural Resources Goals (a) Protect and conserve the natural resources from undue exploitation, encroachment and damage. (c) Protect and promote the prudent use of Hawaii's unique, fragile, and significant environmental and natural resources. Policies (g) Promote sound management and development of Hawai `i's land and marine resources for potential economic benefit. Discussion: Among the natural resources of Hawaii are its soil, water, and air. The site is in the state land use Agricultural District, is zoned by the County for Agriculture, and contain land rated as Prime Agricultural Lands. The sale of the lands itself will not negatively impact these natural resources. Sale and subsequent use of the site is expected to put the land in agricultural use. Negative impacts to marine resources, air quality, water quality and to soils are not expected. Economic Goals (a) Provide residents with opportunities to improve their quality of life through economic development that enhances the County's natural and social environments. (b) Economic development and improvement shall be in balance with the physical, social, and cultural environments of the island of Hatii jai `i. (d) Provide an economic environment that allows new, expanded, or improved economic opportunities that are compatible with the County's cultural, natural and social environment. Policies (a) Assist in the expansion of the agricultural industry through the protection of important agricultural lands, development of marketing plans and programs, capital improvements and continued cooperation with appropriate State and Federal agencies. Discussion: Agricultural activities ceased at this site with the default of Hamakua Sugar and subsequent ownership of the land by the County. Sale of the site will make it possible to put the lands back into agricultural use, by making it available for residents who wish to be in POWs, HAMAKUA LAND SALE: KOHOLALELE FINAL ENVIRONMENTAL ASSESSMENT agriculture to obtain land for that purpose. Putting the lands back into agriculture is consistent with the physical, social, and cultural environment of Hawaii County and the Hamakua District. Land Use — Agriculture Goals (a) Identify, protect and maintain important agriculture lands on the island of Hawai `i. Policies (j) Ensure that development of important agricultural land be primarily for agricultural use. Discussion: The site is former sugar cane land that has lain fallow since 1994. It is anticipated that after their sale, agricultural activities will resume. On the county's Land Use Pattern Allocation Guide (LUPAG) map, found in the Hawaii County General Plan (Hawai`i County 2005), the site is designated Important Agricultural Lands (Figure 13). Because the site is expected to return to agricultural use, the proposed sale of the site is consistent with the Important Agricultural Lands designation. 6.2.2 Hawaii County Zoning Chapter 25 of the Hawaii County Code is the County's Zoning Code. The Zoning Code specifies permitted uses as well as site development parameters, such as density and building setbacks. The site is zoned A -40a by the County of Hawal`i (Figure 14). Agricultural districts provide for agricultural and very low- density agriculturally -based residential use. Density in the A -40a District is limited to a minimum building site area of 40 acres. Discussion: The sale of the site is consistent with the Agricultural district. It is anticipated that the site will continue to be designated Agriculture and that agricultural uses can once again resume at the site after the land is sold.

The feasible alternatives must also address the project's economic characteristics while responding to the surrounding land uses that will be impacted by the project. In conformance with applicable regulations, the following alternatives, including alternative sites and uses of the property, have been identified and investigated. 7.1 NO- ACTION ALTERNATIVE (STATUS QUO) Under the no- action alternative the County would retain ownership of the Site. The County would continue to pay expenses associated with owning the lands and not realize the revenue benefits of selling the lands. Under this alternative, the lands would continue to be property -tax exempt and the County will not realize any income from taxes. In addition, the lands would not pass to new owners and would not be put to their best use. 7.2 THE ALTERNATIVE OF EXECUTING A LAND EXCHANGE Over the last few years, the County has explored land exchange options with large landowners in the vicinity. The County continues to be open to any opportunities to exchange the Stie, particularly with any land listed on the Open Space priority list. 7.3 THE ALTERNATIVE OF LEASING THE LANDS The County explored the option of leasing the land to individuals or businesses that would put the land to productive use. Under the leasing alternative, the County would bear the costs associated with owning the land and administering the leases and forego the immediate larger financial benefits of selling the lands. Under this alternative, no real property tax revenues would be realized. This alternative would achieve one project goal which is to allow these lands to be put back into productive agricultural use. However, the County recently decided to offer other surplus lands located in Kapulena for affordable agricultural leases. The extent of the proposed Kapulena lease lands (approximately 1700 acres) would likely exceed the prevailing demand for diversified agriculture in the Hamakua area. 7 -1 HAMAKUA LAND SALE: KOHOLALELE FINAL ENVIRONMENTAL ASSESSMENT This page intentionally left blank. 7 -2 HAMAKUA LAND SALE: KOHOLALELE FINAL ENVIRONMENTAL ASSESSMENT 8.0 ANTICIPATED DETERMINATION, FINDINGS, AND REASONS FOR SUPPORTING DETERMINATION 8.1 ANTICIPATED DETERNIINATION This EA has evaluated the potential primary, secondary, and cumulative environmental impacts, both short-term and long -term, that could result from the proposed action. Based on this assessment, the anticipated determination is a Finding of No Significant Impact (FONSI). 8.2 FINDINGS AND REASONS To determine whether a proposed action will have significant impacts on the environment, Hawaii Administrative Rules Section 11- 200 -12 sets forth 13 significance criteria. Based on an evaluation of all phases and expected consequences of the proposed action, the findings supporting an anticipated determination of no significant impact are as follows: (1) Involves an irrevocable commitment to loss or destruction of any natural or cultural resources Neither the sale of the site nor its anticipated subsequent use is expected to negatively impact natural resources in the lands or in the vicinity. While the lands are expected to remain in agriculture, the exact use and any associated impacts are unknown at this time. Purchasers of the Lands would have to comply with County, State, and Federal regulations with regard to the protection of natural resources. An archaeological inventory survey has been conducted by Scientific Consultant Services, Inc., for the project area. The survey documented four sites consisting of eight rock mounds. The features were fully investigated and determined to be associated with Historic sugarcane field clearing. As the sale of this site does not involve any earth disturbing activities, no impacts are expected. The archaeological inventory survey concludes that no additional archaeological work be done for the feature sites. Section 4.1 discusses the inventory survey in more detail. A Cultural Impact Analysis was also conducted by Scientific Consultant Services, Inc., and concluded that pursuant to Act 50 the exercise of native Hawaiian rights, or any ethnic group, related to gathering, access or other customary activities will not be affected by development activities on this parcel. Because there were no cultural activities identified within the project area, there are no adverse effects. An inventory of flora and fauna was conducted by Robert Hobdy in 2009. No plant species listed or proposed as threatened or endangered were identified within the project area. Faunal survey recorded the endangered Hawaiian hoary bat within the project area. The faunal survey report concluded that the proposed sale and subsequent use of the site is not expected to have any significant adverse impact on this species. Flow HAMAKUA LAND SALE: KOHOLALELE FINAL ENVIRONMENTAL ASSESSMENT (2) Curtails the range of beneficial uses of the environment The site is currently undeveloped and unused land designated by the State and County for agricultural uses. While the lands have laid fallow, non- native plant species have come to dominate the plant communities. By selling the property, the County will free itself from ongoing expenses associated with owning the lands and will benefit from the proceeds of the sale. The sale is expected to make the property available for productive agricultural use. (3) Conflicts with the State's long -term environmental policies or goals and guidelines as expressed in Chapter 344, HRS; and any revisions thereof and amendments thereto, court decisions, or executive orders The proposed sale is consistent with the environmental policies, goals, and guidelines established in Chapter 344, HRS, State Environmental Policy. This EA has addressed such issues as natural resources conservation, soils, drainage, visual environment, flora and fauna, open space, air and water quality, wastewater, and energy consumption. (4) Substantially affects the economic welfare, social welfare, or cultural practices of the community or state This EA has addressed questions of population, housing, educational facilities, economic development, quality of life, noise, and transportation. The proposed sale of the site will positively affect the economic and social welfare of the Hamakua community by providing the opportunity to place the property in the hands of owners who are likely to put the land back into productive agricultural use. (5) Substantially affects public health The sale of the site will not substantially affect public health in the immediate area or island wide. The lands are expected to retain their current zoning after the sale. Should farm dwellings be constructed, they will be required to comply with all water and wastewater health and safety standards. Similarly, any future agricultural uses will be required to comply with State adopted standards for sanitation and waste disposal. (6) Involves substantial secondary impacts, such as population changes or effects on public facilities Based on the potential to develop 26 farm dwellings as discussed previously in this document, the demand for energy and water, as well as the generation solid waste and wastewater, will not increase significantly, either regionally or island wide. FOOS HAMAKUA LAND SALE: KOHOLALELE FINAL ENVIRONMENTAL ASSESSMENT (7) Involves a substantial degradation of environmental quality The sale of the site itself does not entail development or construction of any kind and will not degrade environmental quality. After the sale, it is expected that zoning of the lands will remain the same and that the lands will be likely be used for agricultural purposes. (8) Is individually limited but, cumulatively, has considerable effect on the environment, or involves a commitment for larger actions Because the sale of the site does not entail development of any kind, and the land will remain in its existing condition, it will not affect the environment or involve a commitment for larger actions. Subsequent agricultural use of the lands is not expected to result in cumulative effects on the environment or involve a commitment for larger actions. (9) Substantially affects a rare, threatened, or endangered species or its habitat The endangered Hawaiian hoary bat was recorded within the project area during faunal survey. Because this species is common in the Hamakua region, and their habitat is abundant, the sale of the site and anticipated agricultural use are not expected to result in adverse impacts to this species. (10) Detrimentally affects air or water quality or ambient noise levels The sale of the lands will not significantly affect noise and air quality levels. During the period preceding the sale, traffic and associated noise and pollution levels will increase slightly as potential buyers examine the properties. After the sale, although traffic on area roads is expected to increase somewhat as they will be used by the purchasers of the property, substantial detrimental impacts to air quality are not expected, as any air pollutants would be rapidly dispersed by the prevailing winds. Periodic vehicular traffic associated with use of the lands may periodically contribute to ambient noise levels in the immediate vicinity of area roads. (11) Affects or is likely to suffer damage by being located in an environmentally sensitive area, such as a flood plain, tsunami zone, beach, erosion -prone area, geologically hazardous land, estuary, freshwater, or coastal waters The site is not located in an environmentally sensitive area, such as a flood plain, tsunami zone, beach, erosion -prone area, geologically hazardous land, estuary, fresh water, or coastal waters. As such, the sale and subsequent use of the lands would have no adverse impacts upon these types of sensitive lands, and the lands and any improvements to them would not be likely to suffer damage from hazards associated with such areas. HAMAIWA LAND SALE: I<OHOLALELE FINAL ENVIRONMENTAL ASSESSMENT (12) Substantially affects scenic vistas and view planes identified in county or state plans or studies The project vicinity includes a diverse range of scenic vistas and open expanses that typify the upper Hamakua coast. The site is located at higher elevations and offer views of the ocean. Opportunities for greater expanses of views of the ocean and Mauna Kea might be possible with selective removal of the ironwood trees that have come to dominate the site. Existing views of the coastline from within the lands would be unaffected by the land sale. In lands zoned for agriculture, any agricultural and residential structures built after the sale would be limited by zoning to 45 and 35 feet, respectively and are not expected to significantly affect views of the coast or to degrade views of the slopes of Mauna Kea from makai areas. (13) Requires substantial energy consumption. The proposed sale will not directly increase energy consumption. After their sale, the lands are expected to be put to agricultural use, with the possibility that farm dwellings may be constructed. Because no utility upgrades are planned, purchasers constructing dwellings or undertaking agricultural uses that require electric power will need to explore off - the -grid alternatives such as generators and photovoltaic devices.

Kawahara, P.E., Deputy Director Commission on Water Resource Management Draft Environmental Assessment for Sale of County L rids NA (3)4 -2- 005:001 Thank you for the opportunity to review the subject document. The Commission on Water Resource Management (CWRM) is the agency responsible for administering the State Water Code (Code). Under the Code, all waters of the State are held in trust for the benefit of the citizens of the State, therefore, all water use is subject to legally protected water rights. CWRM strongly promotes the efficient use of Hawaii's water resources through conservation measures and appropriate resource management. For more information, please refer to the State Water Code, Chapter 174C, Hawaii Revised Statutes, and Hawaii Administrative Rules, Chapters 13 -167 to 13 -171. These documents are available via the Internet at http: / /www.hawaiiyovidlnr /ewrm. Our comments related to water resources are checked off below. ❑ 1. We recommend coordination with the county to incorporate this project into the county's Water Use and Development Plan. Please contact the respective Planning Department and/or Department of Water Supply for further information. ❑ 2. We recommend coordination with the Engineering Division of the State Department of Land and Natural Resources to incorporate this project into the State Water Projects Plan. ❑ 3. We recommend coordination with the Hawaii Department of Agriculture (HDOA) to incorporate the reclassification of agricultural zoned land and the redistribution of agricultural resources into the State's Agricultural Water Use and Development Plan (AWUDP). Please contact the HDOA for more information. ❑ 4. We recommend that water efficient fixtures be installed and water efficient practices implemented throughout the development to reduce the increased demand on the area's freshwater resources. Reducing the water usage of a home or building may earn credit towards Leadership in Energy and Environmental Design (LEER) certification. More information on LEED certification is available at http://www.usa-4c.org/leed. A listing of fixtures certified by the EPA as having high water efficiency can be found at hftp://www.epa.gov/watersense/pp/index.htm. ❑ 5. We recommend the use of best management practices (BMP) for stormwater management to minimize the impact of the project to the existing area's hydrology while maintaining on -site infiltration and preventing polluted runoff from storm events. Stormwater management BMPs may earn credit toward LEED certification. More information on stormwater BMPs can be found at htt , / /hawaii, ov /dbedt/czm /initiative /lid. h . DRF -IA 06/19/2008 Morris Atta, Administrator Page 2 May 11, 2010 ❑ 6. We recommend the use of alternative water sources, wherever practicable. ❑ 7. There maybe the potential for ground or surface water degradation /contamination and recommend that approvals for this project be conditioned upon a review by the State Department of Health and the developer's acceptance of any resulting requirements related to water quality. Permits required by CWRM: Additional information and forms are available at http: / /hawaii.aov /dlnr /cwrm /resources yermits.htm. ❑ 8. The proposed water supply source for the project is located in a designated water management area, and a Water Use Permit is required prior to use of water. ❑ 9. A Well Construction Permit(s) is (are) required any well construction work begins. ❑ 10. A Pump Installation Permit(s) is (are) required before ground water is developed as a source of supply for the project. ® 11. There is (are) well(s) located on or adjacent to this project. If wells are not planned to be used and will be affected by any new construction, they must be properly abandoned and sealed. A permit for well abandonment must be obtained. ❑ 12. Ground water withdrawals from this project may affect streamflows, which may require an instream flow standard amendment. ❑ 13. A Stream Channel Alteration Permit(s) is (are) required before any alteration(s) can be made to the bed and/or banks of a stream channel. ❑ 14. A Stream Diversion Works Permit(s) is (are) required before any stream diversion works is (are) constructed or altered. ❑ 15. A Petition to Amend the Interim Instream Flow Standard is required for any new or expanded diversion(s) of surface water. ❑ 16. The planned source of water for this project has not been identified in this report. Therefore, we cannot determine what permits or petitions are required from our office, or whether there are potential impacts to water resources. ® OTHER: Kawaiili Stream Tunnel (Well No. 6121 -01) appears to lie within the subject parcel. This source was registered by Hamakua Sugar in 1989 as an unused tunnel source. No use of water from this source has been reported since then. As noted above, the source should be properly sealed if there are no future plans for use. Properly sealing ground water sources will help to protect Hawaii's ground water resources.

We have assigned the project the reference number POH- 2010. 00097. Please cite the reference number in any correspondence with us concerning this project. We completed our review of the submitted document and have the following comments: Because the document only addresses the sale and potential impacts associated with the speculative development of each parcel, the Corps is providing only general comments regarding Regulatory. Program considerations. We recommend you provide a copy of this letter to anyone who purchases any of the land outlined in your proposal. Section 10 of the Rivers and Harbors Act (Section 10) of 1899 requires that a Department of the Army (DA) permit be obtained from the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers (Corps) prior to undertaking any construction, dredging, and other activities occurring in, over, or under navigable waters of the U.S. Section 404 of the Clean Water Act (Section 404) of 1972 requires that a DA permit be obtained for the discharge (placement) of dredge and/or fill material into waters of the U.S., including wetlands. Although the Pacific Ocean and tidally- influenced streams /wetlands are considered Section 10 waters, it appears, based on the information provided, that the project location is of sufficient distance from these areas. Therefore, Section 10 authorization is not likely required. The project information provided indicates that several gulches are present on the subject parcel. These may be waters of the U.S., and as such, regulated under Section 404. If these drainage features are proposed for impact, authorization under Section 404 may be required prior to the commencement of the activity. If there are any other waterbodies present on the subject parcels that are not disclosed in the draft Environmental Assessment, any proposed impacts to those features may also require authorization. Regulated waterbodies may include wetlands, drainage ditches, gulches, streams, lakes, ponds, etc., and may be permanent, intermittent, or ephemeral. If wetlands are proposed for agriculture impact and they are not currently used for agriculture, authorization from our office may also be required. I $ -2- Only the Corps of Engineers has authority to determine if any of these features are or are not waters of the U.S. and, potentially subject to regulations under Section 404 of the Clean Water Act. As such, we encourage any fixture landowner /developer to submit a request for a jurisdictional determination for any potentially regulated waterbodies if proposed for impact. They should contact our office regarding what type of information they will need to submit in order for us to conduct a jurisdictional determination. If any waterbodies are determined to be waters of the U.S., the applicant will need to obtain authorization from the Corps prior to discharging dredge or fill material into these waterbodies. Fill material may include, but is not limited to: rock, dirt, sand, sandbags, concrete, piping a water of the U.S., diverting a water of the U.S., grading, or vegetation removal. Fill may be temporary or permanent. The applicant should contact the Corps to determine if any proposed work constitutes a "discharge of fill" and submit an application to our office accordingly. The Corps will then review the application to ensure it complies with all necessary federal laws and regulations. Note that any proposed discharge of fill must be the minimum necessary to achieve the project purpose and must avoid, minimize, and compensate for lost aquatic resource functions and services. Any regulated project activity will also need to comply with Section 7 of the Endangered Species Act, the Magnuson - Stcvens Fishery Conservation and Management Act, and Section 106 of the National Historic Preservation Act. Additional information may be required from the applicant to ensure compliance with these laws. The applicant will also need to apply for and receive Section 401 Water Quality Certification and Coastal Zone Management Consistency Determination from the State of Hawaii prior to the Corps authorizing the discharge of dredge or fill material. Thank you for contacting us regarding this project and providing us with the opportunity to comment. Once again, we encourage you to provide copies of this letter to anyone who purchases land associated with your proposal. Should you or any future landowner have any questions regarding our Regulatory Program or the permit application process, please contact Ms. Amy Klein at (808) 438 -7023 or via email at Amy.S.Klein@,usace.army.mil or visit our web page at http:// www. poh .usace.army.mil /EC- R/EC- R.htm.

The proposed sale encompasses approximately 1,040 acres within TMKs (3) 4- 2- 005:001 (900 acres) and (3) 4 -2- 005:001:005 (140 acres) classified as Agricultural under the State Land Use District, and identified as Important Agricultural Lands by the Hawaii County General Plan. According to the DEA, selling the land presents the best alternative to meet the objective of productive agricultural use of the site. The lands are expected to remain in agriculture; however, current zoning allows for subdivision of up to 20 lots. Subdivision may include altering land contours for agricultural or farm dwellings, road improvements, and other land clearing activities. Current land use includes an area cleared and fenced for a planned road maintenance baseyard, while the rest of the remains fallow dominated by guinea grass (Panicum maxiumum) and common ironwood (Casuarina equisetifolia). Surveys detected the presence of the endangered Hawaiian hoary bat (Lasiurus cinereus semotus) throughout the site. Hawaiian hoary bats are known to roost in various types of native and non - native trees and shrubs. If such trees or shrubs suitable for bat roosting are cleared during the bat breeding season (May to August), there is a risk that young bats could inadvertently be harmed or killed. To avoid and minimize impacts to the endangered Hawaiian hoary bat, we recommend the County include a condition that woody plants greater than 15 feet (4.6 meters) tall should not be removed or trimmed during the bat birthing and pup rearing season (May 15 through August 15). No other federally threatened or endangered species were observed within the parcels proposed for sale. TAKE PRIDED l INAMERICA Ms. Nancy Crawford 2 We appreciate the opportunity to comment on the DEA.

No`eau Peralto Mailing Address: 1329 `Oma`oma`o Place Hilo, HI 96720 Aloha mai kaua, I am submitting these comments as a concerned member of the community. After having read over the Koholalele Draft Environmental Assessment, I believe that there is an insufficient amount of historical information provided (See Sections 4.1 and 4.2) about the proposed land sale/exchange area. I have compiled the historical information provided in the following pages from a wide range of sources over the past three years. Koholalele (which I have familial ties to), as well as the neighboring ahupua`a, Kuka`iau, were the focus of my undergraduate thesis (completed in May), entitled "Hao Koala Ka Ino a ke A `eloa: (Re)membering Ahupua a -Based Malama Ama in Kaka iau and Koholalele on the Island of Hawaii. "Over the past three years, in talking stories and collaborating with kama`aina of the area, and in conducting both field and archival research, I have begun to compile the histories of these ahupua`a and examine the ways in which both the `aina and community in these areas have been affected by changes in land management throughout history. This project is a work in progress, and I will be continuing to build upon it in the coming years as a graduate student at the University of Hawaii at Manoa. The information I have provided in the following pages is meant to add to the historical information already provided in the Draft EA, for the period of time prior to 1890. It is not meant to serve as a complete history for this important ahupua`a. There is still much research that needs to be done to complete a more comprehensive history of this ahupua`a, but it is clear in the historical record that is provided here that Koholalele is an extremely important ahupua`a, not only for Hamakua, but for the entire island of Hawaii. With more thorough research and engagement with the surrounding communities, I believe that it will become very clear that much more careful consideration must be taken when dealing with the transfer of title of these lands, and the impacts it could have on the surrounding communities, the natural and cultural resources of the ahupua`a, and the exercise of Native Hawaiian rights in the area. I encourage further research in to the history and title of these lands, as well as a more concerted effort to listen and respond to community concerns. Me ka mahalo nui, �r Leon .

Hao k6`ala ka `ino a ke A`eloa. (At Koholalele, everything is blown a way by the gales, as the A `eloa wind sweeps through) (KNK 30 Nov. 186 7) * indicates an Estimated Date • Wakea and Papahanaumoku give birth to the mokupuni (islands) of ka pae `aina (the archipelago), and the mokupuni of Hawai `i is the first -born. • Wakea and Papahanaumoku give birth to Mauna- a -Wakea (Mauna Kea), the first -born mountain -son of Wakea (Maly 2005: 8). • * 65,000-3,300 BP: Pele battles with Poh ahu and her sisters on the summit of Mauna Kea (Vredenburg 2009). This epic battle correlates with the "Laupahoehoe Volcanics" phase of volcanic activity on Mauna Kea, which forms much of the geological landscape of Koholalele (Kempe and Werner 2003: 54). • After a long, fiery battle -turned -love affair, Pele and Kamapua`a agree to divide the island of Hawaii into their own two exclusive domains. The lush, forest lands of Hilo, Hamakua, and Kohala become the territory of Kamapua`a, where Pele is forbidden to enter (Kame`eleihiwa 1996:116). • In the mo`olelo of Keaomelemele, Koholalele is noted as the place of "the famous cliff' where the kupua sisters of Mauna Kea —Poli `ahu, Lilinoe and Kalauakolea --come to meet Kukuluokahiki and his companions (Manu 2002: 32). These sisters are referred to as "the maidens of the tops of the Hama -kua cliffs and the sheer ascent of Koholalele" (Manu 2002: 122). "The sheer ascent of Koholalele," likely refers to the `Urnikoa trail, which ascends the steep landscape of Koholalele to the summit of Mauna Kea. • In "Ka`ao no Palila," the story of Palila the brave warrior of Alanapo, Kauai— Palila's fourth great battle takes place in Kuka`iau. During this battle Palila defeats the greatest warrior of Hamakua, Moananuikalehua, whose war club is named Koholalele (Fornander: 151). • * Late 1400s: Wa `ahia, the kaula (prophet, seer) of Kalaunui `6hua (ali `i nui of Hawai `i), abandons the ali`i nui on Oahu, during his campaign to conquer all the islands of the archipelago. With her, Wa`ahia took Kalaunui`ohua's war god, the "Akua- pa`ao," and after getting caught in a storm, her canoe was grounded at Koholalele. Wa`ahia then proceeded to DRAFT: The information provided in this document is part of a long -term project currently in progress. Please do not duplicate or disseminate without author's consent. Contact author at leon.peralto ftmail.com. Mahalo null take the Akua -pa`ao to Manini heiau, a luakini heiau of great mana located at Koholalele, and declared that it should remain there "unless the kingdom were in peril" ( "The iron Knife," Kalakaua 1990: 190). • * 1580s: Early on in his reign, U oa (ali `i nui of Hawai `i) visits Koholalele to conduct the ceremonies necessary to re- consecrate Manini heiau, which he had previously been working to restore and enlarge (Kalakaua 1990: 265, Malo 1987: 258, Kamakau 1992: 2, Fornander: 178). • * Early 1600s: `Umi- a -liloa (son of Uloa) visits Ka`oleiokn ( kahuna of Manini heiau) at Koholalele, after being encouraged to return to Waipi`o to overthrow his brother, Hakau, as ali`i `ai moku of Hamakua (Kalakaua 1990: 291). In his final, and likely his most important act before proceeding to Waipi`o with his army to overthrow Hakau, `Umi- a -liloa conducts the proper ceremonies to honor the Akua -pd'ao at Manini heiau in Koholalele (Kalakaua 1990: 304 -305). After leading a successful revolt, `Umi- a -liloa takes the Akua -pa`ao from Manini heiau to Paka`alana heiau in Waipi`o (Kalakaua 1990: 313 -315). • * Late 1700s: During his campaign to unite the moku (districts) of the island of Hawaii under his rule, Kamehameha Pai`ea fought many battles in Hamakua. Prior to the Battle of Koapapa`a at Kuka`iau, Kamehameha and his army conducted a ceremony with the kahuna at the heiau of Manini at Koholalele (Desha 2000: 286). • * Early 1800s: During his reign as ali`i nui of Hawaii, Kamehameha Pai`ea dedicated Koholalele as an `aina kapu (sacred land) for his war god, Kuka`ilimoku, and put the ahupua`a under the control of Hewahewa, his kahuna nui. As an `aina kapu, during this time, Koholalele served as a place of refuge where those in danger or in fear of death would be protected from harm (Ka Nupepa Kuokoa: Sept. 2, 1865). • * Between 1820 -1880: Manini heiau is destroyed, possibly during the 1820s following the abolishment of the `ai kapu, or later, in the late 1800s, when the ma kai lands of Koholalele began to be cleared for sugar cane production. ( Heiau does not appear in Mahele maps of 1880s) • 1842: Waimea Church Records indicate that according to a parish census, approximately 100 people are living in Koholalele (Cordy 1994: 18). This count takes place 64 years after the arrival of foreign diseases with Cpt. James Cook (in 1778), which is estimated to have claimed approximately 54% of the island's population in that time (Cordy 1994: 10, 2000: 49). Based on this estimate, it is likely that Koholalele supported a population of at least 200 at the time of European contact. • 1848: The Mahele begins the process of land privatization in Hawaii. By 1857, in Koholalele, seven kuleana plots, ranging in size from 5 to 15 acres, were awarded to six maka`ainana: Kaaiawaawa (LCA 9844), Kaikuaana (LCA 8298), Moano (LCA 10174), DRAFT: The information provided in this document is part of a long -term project currently in progress.

NiaMo nuGii Nuumalolo (LCA 10546), Puahewa (LCA 9843), Pumanamana (LCA 10601); and the konohiki, Kookooku (LCA 8297). The remainder of the ahupua`a was awarded to Ka`ilakanoa (LCA M.A. 26 -B), an ali`i from Maui who had apparently received control of the ahupua`a originally from Hewahewa (NT 8297), the kahuna nui of Kamehameha Pai`ea (Kame `eleihiwa 1992: 82). As a result, the majority of Kanaka Maoli living in Koholalele were displaced and dispossessed of their ancestral homelands. • * Early 1860s: A government landing is constructed at Koholalele, known as Koholalele Landing (KNK Sept. 26, 1867). • 1872: Charles Notley, a British businessman and sugar baron, acquires a lease for the ahupua`a of Koholalele from P. Nahaolelua, the son and sole heir of Ka`ilakanoa, who lived on Maui (ATK). It is likely that Notley began small -scale sugar cane and stock animal operations in Koholalele upon receiving this lease (KNK March 1, 1879). • 1875 -1882: Following the death of P. Nahaolelua in 1875, the ahupua`a was transferred to his son, Kia Nahaolelua (ATK). Unable to pay off a mortgage, Kia Nahaolelua was forced to relinquish the ahupua`a, and in 1878, Hermann A. Widemann (ATK), a German sugar planter, purchases it (KNK Jan. 8, 1876). All the while, Notley had maintained his lease, and in 1882 he purchased the ahupua`a from Widemann for $9500 (ATK). The legitimacy and legality of these transfers of title are unclear, as the control of Koholalele — Kanaka Maoli (Native Hawaiian) lands —was systematically taken out of Kanaka Maoli hands, in just a little over two decades. • 1883: Notley leases the ma kai lands of Koholalele, including the ship landing (Koholalele Landing), to Harnakua Mill Company (ATK), a sugar company founded in 1877 as a partnership between Notley and Theophilus H. Davies, another British sugar baron (Bouvet 2001: 10). • 1887: Notley and John M. Horner, an American businessman, formed Kuka`iau Ranch, which encompassed the ma uka lands of Kuka`iau and Koholalele, to raise stock animals to supply Kuka `iau Plantation Company (ATK, Henke 1929: 82). • 1890: By 1890 it appears as if Hamakua Mill Co, had gained control over all kuleana lands in Koholalele. Whether all of these acquisitions were legal, legitimate, and with consent from the Kanaka Maoli owners of these lands, is unclear and unlikely. Brief Overview of the Wao Kanaka (Proposed Area for Sale): Prior to the introduction of foreign diseases, and the many social, cultural, political, and economic changes that occurred as a result of the arrival of the first Europeans in Hawai `i, Koholalele supported a significant, self - sufficient population, which sustained itself upon the rich `aina of this ahupua`a. According to oral histories and other historical records, the kupuna that lived in this area developed ways of living that allowed them to thrive in Koholalele's DRAFT: The information provided in this document is part of a long -term project currently in progress.

The ahupua`a provided `ohana with access to subsistence resources from the high elevation slopes of Mauna Kea to the deep seas off of Hamakua's rugged coastline. Before the time of sugar plantations, thick `ohi`a forests came as far down the mountain as the 1000ft elevation, where the Mamalahoa Highway is today located. These lower elevation forests (below 2000ft elev. where the proposed area for sale is located) were likely once known as part of the wao kanaka (where people cultivated the land and lived) (Kamakau 1976: 9, Malo 1951: 17, Handy, Handy & Pukui 1972: 555). In the wao kanaka, kama`aina were able to gather a number of important birds, plants and trees for use as food, clothing, building material, and medicine, among many other things. This area was particularly well -known for its abundance of mamaki (Kuaana and Nainoa Qtd. in BCT 1881), which was historically gathered and cultivated for use in making kapa and certain kinds of medicines. Kama`aina also cultivated areas of the wao kanaka (and the kula lands below 1000 ft. elev.) in a number of food crops (including kalo, `uala, mai`a, pia, `6hi`a `ai, ko, niu, uhi, `ulu, and noni, among others) in scattered kihapai (garden plots), which were rotated seasonally (NT 1848). According to oral histories and ethnographic studies, these kihapai were located in pa kukui (small kukui forest clearings), pili grassland clearings (which were burned in preparation for planting), and along the banks of gulches (Handy, Handy & Pukui 1972: 109 -110). Above the wao kanaka, the ma uka regions of the ahupua`a of Koholalele have long held important cultural and spiritual significance for the kama`aina of this ahupua`a, and of Hamakua as a whole. Historically, these ma uka lands were accessed by kama`aina primarily when necessary for spiritual and cultural practices (Maly 2005: 15), by means of a few trails which connected the district's coastal regions to its upper ma uka regions on Mauna Kea. One of the most important of these trails is the `Umikoa trail, which begins near the coast of Koholalele, continues up through the wao kanaka, to `Umikoa, and makes its way up past Pu`u o Kiha to the summit of Mauna Kea at Waiau. It is likely that this long, steep trail is what Moses Manu (2002) referred to as "ke alahaka `ulili o Koholalele" (the sheer ascent of Koholalele), and the one of the reasons why Hamakua was once noted as "Hamakua i ke ala `ulili" (Hamakua of the steep trails) (Pukui 1983: 53). Historically, this trail played a very important role in Hamakua society, as it was the primary trail on the northeastern side of the island to continue the entire way up to the summit of Mauna Kea. Among other things, this trail was utilized to access the mountain's adze quarry at Keanakako`i, to gather important hardwoods and grasses, to hunt birds, to deposit the piko (umbilical cord) of newborns, and to inter the deceased (Gordy 1994: 86 -87, Maly 2005: 15). * It is important to recognize that the original inhabitants of Koholalele, Kanaka Maoli, were systematically and, in many cases, unlawfully, dispossessed and displaced from their homelands during the late 1800s. It is likely that, collectively and individually, many of the descendants of these original inhabitants continue to hold legitimate claims to the title of these lands. While the current landowner may not be the original perpetrator of these historical wrongs, the maintenance of the status quo further perpetuates these wrongs, and continues to adversely impact Kanaka Maoli today.

Public input is being sought on a draft environmental assessment examining the possible impacts of selling, trading or leasing two Koholalele parcels, one of 900 acres, the other 140 acres. "The purpose is to free up options in the future. We cannot sell the land without an EA," said Ken Bergen, county property manager. "... So this is a step in the process if we were to sell the land, lease the land, exchange the land.... We can't do anything without it." At the Paauilo Gym, people perused maps, displays and the EA document itself. The old sugar cane lands are mauka of Ad It —, ­14 14 Mamalahoa Highway, Highway 19, near the 35 -mile marker. Zoned for agricultural use, the property extends from about the 800 -foot elevation to about 2,400 feet above sea level. The land includes Koholalele Gulch. For tax purposes, the county values the land at $6.16 million but Van Bergen said an appraisal would have to be done before any sale or land swap could take place. "Recent appraisals we've had done have come in lower than assessed value," he noted There is an access road, but according to Van Bergen, it is overgrown at the upper elevations. There is also electricity to the land, but no county water and no access to Hamakua Ditch. According to Roy Takemoto of PBR Hawaii & Associates, the consultant who prepared the EA, the land can be subdivided into agricultural lots no smaller than 40 acres. "The biggest constraint we've found was the water," Takemoto said. "Although the zoning would allow 20- something lots, water's not available for that many lots. So if we find somebody willing to buy today, we'd need to do a'water variance'type of subdivision. That would limit it to approximately 10 lots." The county has cleared and fenced the 140 -acre parcel, which abuts the highway. In January, Mayor Billy Kenoi said that the property 'Will remain in the county for the community's benefit." The EA mentions both a possible sale of the property, or use by the county as a highway maintenance base yard. Dav -Lum Rentals 7/12/20107/1212010 Monday 80 °F forecast... r ' 80 °F forecast...

Waiakea Villas "That's one possibility, but a decision to use it as a base yard has not been made," Van Bergen said. Shelley Stephens pointed out one map on an easel that noted that the Koholalele land is a "portion of Royal Patent 4527, mahele award 26 -8 to Kailakanoa." She said that neither the county nor Title Guaranty, an escrow company the county uses to determine title, did their due diligence in attempting to find descendants of Kailakanoa to clear title to the property. "They're in possession of stolen property," Stephens said. Stephens brought the issue of clouded title before the County Council last August, when Kenoi tried unsuccessfully to sell another 737 acres of land acquired in the Hamakua tax settlement. Albert Kahiwahiwa o Kalani Haa Jr. said sugar planters originally leased the land from his great- great - great- grandfather, Kamehameha III. "I want things to be done pono," he said. "You can't sell or transfer lands that you don't own. They can't prove any proper transfer from the true owner. I'm saying if you can't show a proper transfer from the true owner, it's invalid and the land should be returned to the family." County Finance Director Nancy Crawford disputes Stephens' and Haa's claim. "All of the information we have indicates the county has clear and legitimate title," she said. "That's our position. We looked at an analysis Title Guaranty did family -by- family. They came to Hilo and did a long list that was not satisfactory to people who disagreed, but it satisfied our attorneys and us." The 150 -page draft EA appears in the April 23 edition of the state Office of Environmental Quality Control's "Environmental Newsletter." It's available online at httD: / /hawaii.aov/ health /environmental /oeac /index.html. Public input on the draft EA will be accepted until June 23.
