KAY: You're welcome. Here's an aerial photograph of the subject parcel and surrounding area. Again, on the left hand side is Wailoa State Park. On the right hand side is the Ho`olulu Complex with Manono Street running north -south and Pi`ilani Street running east -west through the slide. Currently, the subject parcel is vacant of any improvements, and it is in its vegetated state as indicated in the aerial photograph. Here's the Applicant's site plan. On the subject, on the left-hand side is a zoomed -out version with Pi`ilani Street on the left-hand side of the slide. Oh, pardon me, Pi`ilani Street on the right- hand side of the slide, and this road here is a proposed extension to Mililani Street which is right now not constructed. So, the subject parcel is located on the corner here, and the portion of the parcel that will be used for the bottling plant is indicated on the right-hand side. It's zoomed in a little bit more with Pi`ilani Street again on the right-hand side. You can see the warehouse indicated here along with the pump station, the proposed tanks, and small office building and associated parking, and also indicated here is some landscaping as well. Here are elevations for the exterior of the warehouse as well as the exterior of the office. This kind of shows just the office here in relationship to the height of the proposed warehouse and vice versa with the office here shown and also what you'd see in terms of the warehouse behind it. Here are some photographs of the site. Here's a view of the property from across Mililani Street. On this side, Mililani Street is already developed. It's on the other side where it's not developed, but here's the subject parcel here in the upper portion of the slide, upper portion of the photograph. Again, a view of the property from across Pi`ilani Street. Again, you can see it's unimproved and heavily vegetated. And, a view of Mililani Street from across Pi`ilani Street. This is heading more toward Puna. The reason that we had this is just to show the proximity to Dr. Camblor's office who has written in opposition to the project. I just wanted to show the proximity in terms of where the subject parcel is, generally in this area, and his office. Here is a view of Pi`ilani Street looking, pardon me, looking east toward Manono. The subject property would be on the left-hand side. Mililani Street to the right here, and a view of Pi`ilani Street looking west toward Wailoa State Park with the subject property being on the right-hand side. So, again, with the other, with the first two items kind of dealt with already, the Planning Director maintains his approval recommendation for the new SMA Permit. Since the last hearing in January, there have been severaloh, pardon me, December, I believe, there have been several pieces of testimony, written testimony that have been distributed electronically to the Commission. And, then, I think this morning or yesterday and I'm not, you've gotten it, there were another couple of pieces of testimony as well as two documents from the Applicant. One is a set of proposed amendments to the SMA Permit that reflects some of the discussion that took place the last time we met on this project, and it's just aas a refresher. And, then second, the exemptions from the Wailani project with the understanding that the Applicant would be seeking similar exemptions for this project as well, and that's exemptions from [HRS] 343. I'll let the Applicant kind of address that. And, then there are a few other pieces of written EXHIBIT D 3
