Request: A -40a to CV -7.5 and RS-7.5/RS-10 to A -40a, RS -7.5 and CV-7.5/RM-5 to CV -7.5 and RS -7.5 Tax Map Key: 6-7-2:por 015, por 064 and 6-7-008:por 093 The Leeward Planning Commission, after a duly held public hearing on April 21, 2011, voted to recommend for your approval the proposed legislative bill for a Change of Zone from Agricultural -40 acre (A -40a) to Single -Family Residential -7,500 square feet (RS -7.5) and Village Commercial -7,500 square feet (CV -7.5); Single -Family Residential -10,000 square feet (RS -10) to Agricultural -40 acre (A -40a), Single -Family Residential -7,500 square feet (RS -7.5) and Village Commercial -7,500 square feet (CV -7.5); and Multiple -Family Residential -5,000 square feet (RM -5) to Single -Family Residential -7,500 square feet (RS -7.5) and Village Commercial - 7,500 square feet (CV -7.5) for approximately 27.4 acres of land. The properties are located southwest of the Parker Ranch Center, between Waimea Elementary and Middle School and the Ala `Ohi`a (Connector Road), Waimea Village, Waimea, South Kohala, Hawaii, TMK: 6-7- 002:por. 015 and por, 064, 6-7-008: por. 093. The Commission concurs with the following Planning Director's reasons for recommending favorable consideration of the request: The applicant is requesting minor zoning adjustments in order to provide uniform zoning of lands involved in a land exchange between the applicant and DOE, so that the lands west of the future realigned Lindsey Road extension will be zoned RS -7.5 and lands Hawai `i County is an Equal Opportunity Provider and Employer The Honorable Dominic Yagong, Chairman and Members of the County Council Page 2 east of the extension will be zoned CV -7.5. Currently these lands have mixed zoning, i.e. A -40a, RM -5, RS -10 and CV -7.5. The table below indicates the specific change of zone requests and proposed uses. TMK Land Area Existing Existing Use Proposed Proposed Use Zoning Zoning 6-7-002:015 f16.5 acre A -40a Planned RS -7.5 Elementary & portion Elementary & Middle School Middle School 6-7-002:015 t0.8 acre A -40a Planned CV -7.5 Road & portion Elementary & Commercial Middle School 6-7-002:064 t1.8 acre RS -10 Planned A -40a Agricultural portion Residential 6-7-008:093 f5.3 acre RM -5 Planned RS -7.5 Elementary & portion Residential Middle School 6-7-008:093 f1.3 acre RM -5 Planned CV -7.5 Road & portion Residential Commercial 6-7-008:093 f0.1 acre RS -10 Planned RS -7.5 Elementary & portion Residential Middle School 6-7-008:093 f1.6 acre RS -10 Planned CV -7.5 Road & portion I I Residential Commercial The applicant and DOE have not determined development schedules for the subject properties. The proposed 27.4 -acre rezone area is part of a larger area that was previously rezoned by Ordinance Nos. 92-65, 96-117 and 02-25 in order to implement the Waimea Town Center Plan, which was originally developed in the 1980's as the Parker Ranch 2020 Plan ("Plan") as a comprehensive plan designed to maintain Waimea's ranching heritage while meeting the existing and future needs of the community. Two of the primary elements of the Plan are to provide an expanded school site and construct a road circulation system in conjunction with development in the area. Condition M(1)(d) of Ord. 02-25 requires that the applicant construct and dedicate to the County the extension of Lindsey Road from Mamalahoa Highway to Ala `Ohi`a (formerly known as Parker Ranch Connector Road) and intersection improvements at Mamalahoa Highway, concurrent with any commercial development of the immediately surrounding commercially - zoned lands covered by the ordinance. The Plan envisions the Lindsey Road extension as a curved tree -lined street designed to discourage fast through traffic that will serve as the main entry to the primary commercial area in Waimea town. The Honorable Dominic Yagong, Chairman and Members of the County Council Page 3 Condition F of Ord. 02-25 requires that Parker Ranch work with the Department of Education (DOE) and Planning Department to provide its pro rata share for school facilities. On August 8, 2003 the Board of Land and Natural Resources approved a development agreement for a land exchange between the applicant and DOE. As part of the agreement, approximately 5.445 acres of Parker Land Trust lands within TMK 6-7-008:093 will be dedicated to the State to allow for expansion of the Waimea school site to create separate campuses for the Waimea Elementary School and Waimea Middle Public Charter Conversion School. In exchange, the State will dedicate 0.78 acres of land located within TMK 6-7-002:015 to the applicant in order to realign the future Lindsey Road extension. The exchange lands are identified on the Zoning Map in Exhibit 2 as Zoning Lot 2, Zoning Lot 3 and Zoning Lot 4. In order to consider an area for any type of zoning designation, the applicable goals, policies and standards of the General Plan must be adequately addressed. It is only through such a comprehensive policy analysis approach that evaluations and decisions can be made to better time and stage developments to achieve growth determined by the General Plan and related planning documents. The implications of these evaluations and decisions must also be considered as they may have an impact on similar areas in the County. The change of zone request will conform to the goals, policies and standards of the General Plan. The General Plan is intended to be used as a policy guide for the coordinated growth and development of all sectors of the County. It sets forth goals, policies, standards and courses of action to accommodate growth without congestion, to designate and preserve the lands needed for residential use, commercial and visitor services, industry, agriculture and open space, and to coordinate these uses with the County's service and circulation systems. The overall goals, policies and standards are set forth to physically plan the lands in the County in the best interest of the island's residents. The proposed change of zone will conform to, among others, the goals, policies and standards of the Land Use, Transportation and Public Facilities Elements of the General Plan: Land Use • Zoning requests shall be reviewed with respect to General Plan designation, district goals, regional plans, State Land Use District, compatibility with adjacent zoned uses, availability of public services and utilities, access, and public need. Transportation- South Kohala • Encourage the construction of connector roads from the Waimea Bypass Road to the Mamalahoa Highway. The Honorable Dominic Yagong, Chairman and Members of the County Council Page 4 Public Facilities- Education • Encourage continuous joint pre -planning of schools with the Department of Education to ensure coordination with roads, water, and other support facilities and considerations such as traffic and safety, and access for vehicles, bicycles, and pedestrians. • Encourage the expansion of public school and library facilities as needs arise. The General Plan and South Kohala Community Development Plan (CDP) recognize the Waimea Town Center Plan (Parker Ranch 2020 Plan) and its goal of creating coordinated development of the Waimea area. Parker Ranch and the Department of Education have executed a development agreement to exchange lands in order to implement expansion of the Waimea school site and the extension of Lindsey Road south to Ala `Ohi`a and eventually towards the future Waimea Bypass Road. The Waimea Town Center Plan and South Kohala CDP both envision the Lindsey Road extension as a community street with pedestrian and bicycle facilities as well as landscaping features such as trees along the street edge. Strategy 4.1 of the CDP also indicates that the Waimea community should have the opportunity to provide input in the design and phasing of the town center roadways. Conditions of approval will address the design of the Lindsey Road extension and will require that the Laikealoha Street extension and Lindsey Road extension are constructed concurrent with development of the surrounding lands, which are currently vacant. The proposed change of zone will directly support the goals, policies and standards of the General Plan by facilitating the zoning changes necessary to achieve these facility and infrastructure improvements. The LUPAG Map component of the General Plan is a graphic depiction of the physical relationship among the various land uses and establishes the basic urban and non -urban areas within the County. The core area of Waimea town including the northeast portion of the school property is designated Medium Density Urban which allows village and neighborhood commercial uses as well as multiple and single family residential with an overall density of up to 35 units per acre. Lands surrounding this core area, including the remainder of the subject properties are designated Low Density Urban which is defined as mainly residential with ancillary community and public uses. The proposed RS -7.5, CV -7.5 and A -40a zoning is consistent with the LUPAG Map for this area and is compatible with the similarly zoned surrounding properties. Thus, the request will provide for orderly development of the area. All utilities and services are available to the site. County water is available in the Waimea area. There are currently no waterlines installed in the project area; however, The Honorable Dominic Yagong, Chairman and Members of the County Council Page 5 the subject properties are covered by Ord. 02-25 which requires that the applicant provide a water system meeting with Department of Water Supply requirements. There are currently no public roads on the subject properties. Construction of the portion of Ala `Ohi`a from Mamalahoa Highway to Pukalani Road was completed and opened in November 2010. This roadway provides an alternate route around the center of Waimea. Ala `Ohi`a is a limited -access, two-lane paved County roadway with a 25 mph speed limit that runs along the southern boundary of the subject properties. An 80 -foot wide extension of Lindsey Road is planned that will provide a north -south link between Mamalahoa Highway and Ala `Ohi`a as well as serve the commercial -zoned lands east of the road and future school site west of the road. The development agreement between the applicant and DOE also requires construction of a roadway that will bisect the school property. This road will connect to the Lindsey Road extension and will be constructed to County standards by either the applicant or DOE. A traffic impact analysis report (TIAR), which was prepared by the applicant in compliance with Section 25-2-46 (Concurrency Requirements) of the zoning code, concluded that the proposed rezone would have a negligible difference on traffic volumes and operations at nearby intersections relative to current zoning. The TIAR is somewhat theoretical because there are no current and specific plans to develop the property; therefore, it would be appropriate to update the TIAR in the future since the current TIAR will likely be outdated by the time development of this area begins. Based on zoning code requirements, a Use Permit will need to be secured for development of a school on the proposed Single -Family Residential (RS -7.5) -zoned lands adjacent to the existing Waimea school site. The most appropriate time to update the TIAR will be during the use permit process so that specific information related to school size and student population can be used in the report to accurately determine traffic impacts. An updated TZAR is also recommended prior to construction of the Lindsey Road extension and development of the adjacent commercially -zoned lands. The Honorable Dominic Yagong, Chairman and Members of the County Council Page 6 The property is located outside the 500 -year floodplain and has no severe geological or topographical problems which cannot be rectified or which would render the land unusable. There are currently no storm water conveyance systems on the properties. However, prior to development of the properties appropriate drainage systems will be constructed so that all development generated storm runoff will be disposed of on- site and not allowed onto adjacent properties or roadways. The applicant will also pay a fair share fee or unified impact fee (whichever is applicable at the time) to mitigate potential regional impacts of the development of the property. Appropriate wastewater system(s) as required by the Department of Health will be installed upon development of the properties. Solid waste will be disposed of at transfer stations or the Pu`uanahulu landfill in North Kona. Electricity and telephone services are available to the property. Police, fire and medical services are located in Waimea within a mile of the property. The request is not contrary to Chapter 205A, Hawaii Revised Statues, relating to Coastal Zone Management. The property is not located in the Special Management Area. The property is located several miles from the shoreline at an elevation of about 2,680 feet above sea level and outside of the tsunami evacuation zone. Therefore, the property will not be impacted by coastal hazards and beach erosion. There is no record of a designated public access to the shoreline or mountains that traverses the property. Several archaeological studies have been conducted for the subject properties in conjunction with the applicant's previous change of zone requests for the Waimea Town Center area. The subject properties are situated within the area covered by Ord. 02-25, which requires that a historic preservation plan of each development area be prepared and mitigation measures be implemented prior to or in conjunction with an land alteration. A previous biological inspection of the exchange lands determined that no listed, candidate, or endangered animal or plant species were found on the properties. The DOE property is an abandoned cattle pasture dominated by kikuyu grass and weeds. Based on the above findings, approval of this change of zone request would result in a more appropriate land use pattern that will further public necessity and convenience and the general welfare. For your favorable consideration, an amendment to Section 25-8-11 (Lalamilo-Pu`ukapu Zone Map), Article 8, Chapter 25 (Zoning Code) of the Hawaii County Code is transmitted.

Development Timeframe: The applicant and DOE have not determined development schedules for the subject properties. 3. Landowner:. Parker Land Trust owns TMK 6-7-002:064 and 6-7-008:093; the State of Hawaii owns TMK 6-7-002:015. In a letter dated February 29, 2008 (Appendix C of application) the DOE authorized Parker Ranch to apply for a change of zone for the land exchange properties, and requested that the 5.445 acres of land being transferred to DOE be rezoned to residential zoning. 4. Supportive Information: A change of zone application in support of this request was submitted in August 2008 (Planning Department Exhibit 1 - Change of Zone Application). In addition, the applicant submitted a revised metes and bounds description and map (P. D. Exhibit 2) of the subject change of zone lands. The application was held and action was deferred until January 2011 when the applicant submitted a TIAR in support of the change of zone application (P.D. Exhibit 3 — Letter dated January 12, 2011 from PBR Hawaii to Planning Department with attachments and TZAR for Proposed Waimea Town Center Zoning Adjustments). BACKGROUND 5. Background Information: The proposed 27.4 -acre rezone area is part of a larger area that was previously rezoned by Ordinance Nos. 92-65, 96-117 and 02-25 in order to implement the Waimea Town Center Plan, which was originally developed in the 1980's as the Parker Ranch 2020 Plan ("Plan") as a comprehensive plan designed to maintain Waimea's ranching heritage while meeting the existing and future needs of the community. Two of the primary elements of the Plan are to provide an expanded school site and construct a road circulation system in conjunction with development in the area. -2- Condition M(1)(d) of Ord. 02-25 requires that the applicant construct and dedicate to the County the extension of Lindsey Road from Mamalahoa Highway to Ala `Ohi`a (formerly known as Parker Ranch Connector Road) and intersection improvements at Mamalahoa Highway, concurrent with any commercial development of the immediately surrounding commercially -zoned lands covered by the ordinance. The Plan envisions the Lindsey Road extension as a curved tree -lined street designed to discourage fast through traffic that will serve as the main entry to the primary commercial area in Waimea town. Condition F of Ord. 02-25 requires that Parker Ranch work with the Department of Education (DOE) and Planning Department to provide its pro rata share for school facilities. On August 8, 2003 the Board of Land and Natural Resources approved a development agreement for a land exchange between the applicant and DOE. As part of the agreement, approximately 5.445 acres of Parker Land Trust lands within TMK 6-7- 008:093 will be dedicated to the State to allow for expansion of the Waimea school site to create separate campuses for the Waimea Elementary School and Waimea Middle Public Charter Conversion School. In exchange, the State will dedicate 0.78 acres of land located within TMK 6-7-002:015 to the applicant in order to realign the future Lindsey Road extension. The exchange lands are identified on the Zoning Map in Exhibit 2 as Zoning Lot 2, Zoning Lot 3 and Zoning Lot 4. STATE AND COUNTY PLANS AND LAWS 6. State Land Use Designation: Urban. 7.

South Kohala Community Development Plan, adopted November 20, 2008: The subject properties are located in the Waimea Town Center in an area covered by the Parker Ranch 2020 Plan. A strategy of the SKCDP is for the Waimea community to work closely with Parker Ranch to encourage appropriate phasing of the development proposed in the Parker Ranch 2020 Plan. The SKCDP also acknowledges that Parker Ranch is required to construct the Lindsey Road extension concurrent with surrounding development on commercially zoned lands. In the Parker Ranch 2020 Plan the Lindsey Road extension was envisioned as a "community street" that is central to creating a "village center" in Waimea. Also included in the plan is an internal connector road that bisects the Waimea school property and connects to the future Lindsey road extension. The location of this future road is identified as Easement U-1 in Figure 6 of the application. 10. Environmental Review: A Final Environmental Assessment and Finding of No Significant Impact (FONSI) declaration was published in the December 8, 2001 bulletin of the Office of Environmental Quality Control for the land exchange between the applicant and DOE. If required in the future, the DOE will comply with Chapter 343, HRS for construction of the school and the applicant will comply with Chapter 343, HRS for construction of the Lindsey Road extension. DESCRIPTION OF THE SITE AND SURROUNDING AREA 11. Subject Property: The properties are located on fairly level ground at an elevation of about 2,680 feet above sea level. The Parker Land Trust properties are currently used for pasture. The southern portion of the State DOE property is vacant. 12. Surrounding Zoning and Land Uses: The Luala'i residential development is located west of the site on lands zoned RS -7.5 and RM -5. Lands to the north are zoned RS -7.5 and are occupied by the Waimea elementary and middle schools. Parker Ranch Center is located to the northeast of the site and is zoned CV -7.5. The undeveloped lands to the east are also zoned CV -7.5. Undeveloped lands zoned A -40a and RS -10 are located south of Ala `Ohi`a, which runs along the southern boundary of the site. -4- 13. U.S.D.A. Soil Type: WMC, Waimea very sandy loam with slopes ranging from 6-12%. Waimea soils have moderately rapid permeability, slow runoff and a slight erosion hazard. This soil is used for pasture and irrigated truck crops. 14. Land Study Bureau's Productivity Rating: Unclassified 15. ALISH: Prime and Other Agricultural Lands 16. Flood Zone: The property is located entirely within Flood Zone "X", which is an area determined by FEMA to be outside the 500 -year flood plain 17. Traffic: Although the applicant has no plans to develop the proposed commercial -zoned lands in the near future and the DOE does not have plans to expand the school prior to 2019, a traffic impact analysis report (see P.D. Exhibit 3) was prepared by the applicant in compliance with Section 25-2-46 (Concurrency Requirements) of the zoning code. The report concluded that the proposed rezone would have a negligible difference on traffic volumes and operations at nearby intersections relative to current zoning. 18. Flora/Fauna: An inspection for biological resources was completed for the land exchange area in September 2000 and its findings were incorporated into the environmental assessment for the land exchange. The native plant 'Ilima was observed at the site. However, it was determined that the 'Ilima on the site is not used for cultural gathering purposes because it is of poor quality and there are a large number of alternative sites in lowland Waimea with higher quality 'Ilima plants. Additionally, the DOE property is an abandoned cattle pasture dominated by kikuyu grass and weeds. No listed, candidate or proposed endangered animal or plant species were found on the subject properties. 19. Archaeological/Historical Resources: Several archaeological studies have been conducted for the subject properties in conjunction with the applicant's previous change of zone requests for the Waimea Town Center area. Two historic sites were identified on the subject properties that the State Historic Preservation Division (SHPD) determined to be important for data recovery. In a letter dated June 8, 2001, SHPD determined that adequate data recovery for these sites had been completed. The applicant has submitted a preservation plan to SHPD for significant historic sites surrounding the subject properties, -5- including an archaeological preserve area to the south of Ala `Ohi`a and east of the realigned Lindsey Road extension. 20. Cultural or Native Gathering Rights: Previous archaeological assessments and oral histories found no evidence of any traditional and customary Native Hawaiian rights being practiced on the properties, nor existence of any known valued cultural or native resources in the land exchange area. Additionally, the area has been used for pasture since at least 1925. 21. Public Access: No known public access to/from shoreline or mountain areas traverses the property. PUBLIC UTILITIES AND SERVICES 22. Access: There are currently no public roads on the subject properties. Construction of the portion of Ala `Ohi`a from Mamalahoa Highway to Pukalani Road was completed and opened in November 2010. This roadway provides an alternate route around the center of Waimea. Ala `Ohi`a is a limited -access, two-lane paved County roadway with a 25 mph speed limit that runs along the southern boundary of the subject properties. An 80 -foot wide extension of Lindsey Road is planned that will provide a north -south link between Mamalahoa Highway and Ala `Ohi`a as well as serve the commercial -zoned lands east of the road and future school site west of the road. The development agreement between the applicant and DOE also requires construction of a roadway that will bisect the school property. This road will connect to the Lindsey Road extension and will be constructed to County standards by either the applicant or DOE. 23. Water: There are currently no waterlines installed on the subject property. However, the subject properties are situated within the area covered by Ord. 02-25, which requires that the applicant provide a water system meeting with Department of Water Supply requirements. 24. Wastewater: During the design phase for any future development, the applicant will work with the Department of Health to determine the appropriate wastewater system(s) for the area. M 25. Solid Waste: Solid waste generated by development of the land will be hauled to transfer stations or directly to the Pu'uanahulu landfill in North Kona. 26. Site Drainage: The subject properties do not currently contain any storm water conveyance systems. During the design phase for any future development, the applicant will work with the Department of Public Works to determine the appropriate drainage system(s) for the area. 27. Essential Utilities and Services: Electricity and telephone services are available to the site. Police, fire and medical services are located in Waimea within a mile of the site.

(hereinafter referred to as "Parker Ranch" or "applicant"), is the developer of the project site. With authorization from the State Department of Education (hereinafter referred to as "DOE") (see Appendix C), the subject zoning adjustments are requested to change various zoning district boundaries to reflect the current school expansion plans and recently adjusted roadway alignments. The project is located in Waimea, South Kohala, Hawai'i, adjacent to the Parker Ranch Center (see Figure 1). The project areas are surrounded by the existing Waimea Elementary and Middle Public Charter Conversion Schools immediately to the north, the Connector Road (connecting Mamalahoa Highway and Pukalani Road) to the south, the new Luala'i residential subdivision to the west, the Kahilu Theatre and the Parker Ranch Center. The planned extension of Lindsey Road bisects the project from the north to the south. Additionally, as part of a Land Exchange Agreement between the applicant and the DOE, the project area includes approximately 5.445 acres of Parker Ranch lands to be exchanged with a .78 acre portion of DOE land which are resultant parcels from the future straightening of Lindsey Road (see Figure 2). 1.2 REGULATORY BACKGROUND 1.2.1 Land Exchange On June 27, 2000, the DOE and the applicant entered into the Waimea Development Agreement that would involve the exchange of approximately 4.988 acres, more or less, of Parker Ranch land for 0.78 acres, more or less, of State land that is currently under Executive Order to the DOE. The purposes of the land exchange are to: 1) allow for the future expansion of the Waimea School Site to accommodate separate campuses for the Waimea Elementary and Waimea Middle Public Charter Conversion Schools; and 2) improve the design of the proposed extension of Lindsey Road by removing the curve present in the existing road. Under the Waimea Development Agreement, a 60 -foot wide roadway easement for access and utilities will separate the Waimea Elementary and Waimea Middle Public Charter Conversion School campuses. The divider roadway easement will be comprised of approximately .729 acres. On August 8, 2003, the State Department of Land and Natural Resources (DLNR) granted Parker Ranch final approval of the land exchange with the State DOE (Appendix B). A Final Environmental Assessment (FEA) was prepared for the State DOE and approved in 2001. The FEA is being submitted (Appendix A) in lieu of the County Environmental Report required by this Change of Zone application. The recent development of Phase 3 of the new Luala'i Subdivision has led to a slight increase in the acreage Parker Ranch plans to dedicate to the State DOE (4.988 acres to 2 WAIMEA TOWN CENTER — ZONING ADJUSTMENTS Parker Ranch, Inc./Hawai'i State Department of Education 5.445 acres). As verified by the project's surveyor, Engineers Surveyors Hawai'i, Inc., the .457 acre increase is a result of adjustments in the property boundary line for Luala'i Subdivision Lots 161 through 174 (See Figure 3). 1.2.2 Waimea Town Center Plan & County Council Action Parker Ranch initiated a comprehensive planning process for its lands in the 1980's. As a result of the derived plans, the ranch obtained Hawai'i County Council approval in 1992 to rezone 580 acres. (Ordinance 92-65, County of Hawai'i) The County Council action allowed the development of commercial, industrial and residential uses and the potential construction of numerous community facilities. Amendments to the original zoning ordinance were subsequently approved by the County Council in 1996 (Ordinance 96- 117). In February 2002, the County Council revised and adopted Zoning Ordinance 02-25, replacing the previous zoning ordinance. This change to Ordinance 96-117 was initiated by the Department of Parks and Recreation to revise a section related to the location of the 30 acres of park land. 3 4 C tu C CA Q r O � Dol� G 1 C C.J _ ami f Q O" I O Nj 4-j � • O ?

This document demonstrates how the proposed developments, as a consequence of a Change of Zone action by the County, would meet the applicable criteria and objectives enumerated in the Hawai'i County Code, while conforming to State and County plans for the area. The requested Change of Zone is being sought to: 1) allow for the future expansion of the Waimea School Site to accommodate separate campuses for Waimea Elementary School and Waimea Middle Public Charter Conversion School; and 2) to accommodate the future planned extension of Lindsey Road to the Connector Road. The alignment of the planned Lindsey Road extension has been modified, thus resulting in the need to make these minor zoning adjustments. Related to the proposed expansion of the DOE campus, portions of the existing school site are also being rezoned from agricultural to residential zoning to facilitate school improvements. 7 n A z a U .� ..

The State lands were transferred to the DOE by Executive Order. Under the terms of the agreement, the proposed land exchange action would convey a 4.988 -acre portion of TMK: (3) 6-7-08:93 to the State of Hawai'i, and the State of Hawai'i would convey a 0.78 acre portion of TMK: (3) 6-7-2:15 to Parker Ranch. This Change of Zone request helps facilitate the implementation of goals in the Waimea Development Agreement by: 1) allowing for future expansion of the Waimea School site into two separate campuses for Waimea Elementary School and Waimea Middle Public Charter Conversion School; and 2) improving the design of Lindsey Road by removing the curve from the existing design of the road and connecting to the planned Connector Road. The land exchange would also provide for an approximately 18 -acre middle school and an approximately 12 -acre elementary school -- consistent with current DOE guidelines for campus acreage. The proposed project would provide land directly adjacent to the existing school campus, encouraging orderly division of the school into separate Elementary and Middle school campuses, while minimizing infrastructure costs such as roads, water and utilities. Ancillary to the land exchange, the Change of Zone request also includes a portion of the existing Waimea Elementary School parcel (0) 6-7-2:15) currently zoned as A -40(a) (agricultural) would be rezoned as RS -7.5 (residential). 2.2 WAIMEA TOWN CENTER PLAN The proposed zoning change fulfills an element of the Waimea Town Center Plan (formerly known as Parker Ranch 2020) developed by Parker Ranch and endorsed by previous Hawai'i County Council rezoning actions. Originally developed in the 1980's, the plan sets forth a vision supporting the long term viability of Waimea as an attractive residential, cultural, business and service center while allowing the Parker Ranch Foundation Trust to financially support its community-based eleemosynary beneficiaries like Hawai'i Preparatory Academy, North Hawaii Community Hospital and the Hawai'i Community Foundation. A primary element of the Plan's development concept focuses on providing, "needed community facilities, including parks, open space, and an expanded school site." (http://www.parkerranch.com/). The proposed Change of Zone would allow orderly expansion of Waimea School. WAIMEA TOWN CENTER —ZONING ADJUSTMENTS Parker Ranch, Inc./Hawai'i State Department of Education The plan also calls for, "a road circulation system that will enhance the circulation opportunities in conjunction with the project's development." (http://www.parkerranch.com/). The Lindsey Road Extension to a proposed connector road remains an integral element of the Plan's circulation system. Straightening the alignment of the Lindsey Road Extension would provide for a safer and more direct connection with the proposed Connector Road. 2.3 DEVELOPMENT SCHEDULE The Change of Zone is expected to be completed in approximately 8 to 10 months, with the design and subdivision process requiring an additional 10 to 12 months. The applicant does not have any determined development schedule for the subject area. 12 WAIMEA TOWN CENTER — ZONING ADJUSTMENTS Parker Ranch, Inc./Hawai'i State Department of Education 3.0 LAND USE CONFORMANCE 3.1 STATE OF HAWAII 3.1.1 State Land Use Law, Chapter 205, Hawai'i Revised Statutes The State Land Use Law (Chapter 205, Hawai'i Revised Statutes) establishes the State Land Use Commission (LUC), which has the authority to designate all lands in the State into one of four districts: Urban, Rural, Agricultural, and Conservation. Currently, the project site is designated within the Urban district (Figure 7). Urban classification generally includes land characterized by a city -like concentration of people, structures and services, including vacant areas for future development. The counties primarily have jurisdiction over urban lands through their land use ordinances and regulations. As such, the proposed urban use is consistent with the State's long range plans, as reflected by the inclusion of the subject property as part of the Urban district. 3.1.2 Coastal Zone Management Program, Chapter 205A, Hawai'i Revised Statutes The Coastal Zone Management Area (CZM), as defined in Chapter 205A, HRS, includes all the lands of the State. Therefore, lands involved in the proposed action lie within the CZM. ` The Coastal Zone Management (CZM) Program aims to provide recreational opportunities, protect historic resources, protect scenic and open space resources, protect coastal ecosystems, provide facilities for economic development, reduce hazards, and manage development. Because the Waimea area sits well back from the shoreline, the proposed Change of Zone is not anticipated to conflict with stated objectives outlined in the State's Coastal Zone Management Program 3.2 COUNTY OF HAWAII County of Hawai'i land use policies and plans related to the proposed project include the Land Use Pattern Allocation Guide (LUPAG) map in the County of Hawai'i General Plan (General Plan) and the Hawai'i County Code (Comprehensive Zoning Ordinance). The project site is located well outside of the Special Management Area (SMA). 3.2.1 General Plan The General Plan adopted by the County Council in February 2005 and recently amended in December 2006 under Ordinance 06-153, sets forth a long-range comprehensive development plan of the Island of Hawai'i. The plan provides direction for the future growth of the County while offering policy statements embodying expressed goals for present and future generations. The General Plan carries legal authority for all 13 14 z W W r v cl,1 u LU ct = � O W � R Q v N t�A tr w cn N z r - WAIMEA TOWN CENTER — ZONING ADJUSTMENTS Parker Ranch, Inc./Hawai'i State Department of Education subdivision, zoning, and related ordinances, and for the initiation and authorization of all public improvements and projects. The General Plan outlines planning objectives for each of the island's districts. For South Kohala, the General Plan encourages the development of educational facilities in West Hawai'i. Furthermore, LUPAG designations related to the subject parcels, as shown in Figure 8, indicate that the project areas are designated as part of the Low Density Urban areas. Therefore, the proposed Waimea Town Center zoning adjustments and the separation and expansion of Waimea School into Elementary and Middle Schools is consistent with the General Plan. A Final Environmental Assessment (FEA) disclosing potential impacts from the proposed land exchange was accepted by the Department of Education in November 2001. The EA discussed and determined consistency between LUPAG designations and the proposed action. (see Page 20, FEA (attached to this document as Appendix M. 3.2.2 County of Hawai'i Comprehensive Zoning Ordinance As illustrated in Figure 4 and mentioned above, the subject lands are currently zoned A - 40a (Agricultural), RS -10 (Single -Family Residential), and RM -5 (Multiple -Family Residential). The proposed Change of Zone action aims to more properly match future activities the DOE and Parker Ranch with County of Hawai'i land use controls while upholding the County's intent of orderly planned growth within Waimea. 15 16 I AM. (U Lu ct wx� Ngo IF -I M M WAIMEA TOWN CENTER — ZONING ADJUSTMENTS Parker Ranch, Inc./Hawai'i State Department of Education 4.0 PHYSICAL SETTING AND ENVIRONMENTAL CHARACTERISTICS 4.1 LOCATION AND CLIMATE The parcels affected in the proposed action are located just south of the existing Waimea School and the Parker Ranch Center at approximately 2,680 feet in elevation. The Parker Ranch lands are currently used for pasture, and the State property currently remains vacant. The weather at the project location of Waimea is cool, with fog and frequent drizzles. The average daily temperatures range from a minimum of 65 degrees to a maximum of 75 degrees Fahrenheit. The annual rainfall average in Waimea is approximately 75 inches. 4.2 GEOLOGY, TOPOGRAPHY AND SOILS 4.2.1 Geology The project site is located on Holocene lava flows covered with ash deposits from Mauna Kea. The topography is gentle rolling. The surface has weathered through time to produce deep, well -drained soils with low shrink -swell potential. 4.2.2 Topography Topographic maps of Hawaii Island generated by the United States Geological Survey (USGS) illustrate the lands of Waimea-Kohala gently sloping towards the west at less than 5 percent. 4.2.3 Soils Three soil suitability studies prepared for lands in Hawai'i principally focus on the relative agricultural productivity of different land types. These studies are: 1) the U.S. Department of Agriculture Natural Resources Conservation Service (NRCS) Soil Survey; 2) the University of Hawai'i Land Study Bureau Detailed Land Classification; and 3) the State Department of Agriculture's Agricultural Lands of Importance to the State of Hawai'i (ALISH). NRCS Soil Survey According to the NRCS National Cooperative Soil Survey (2001), the project is composed of a soil type classified as WMC: Waimea very fine sandy loam, with slopes ranging from 6-12 percent (see Figure 9). Waimea soils are moderately deep soils that are well drained and have slow to medium runoff with moderately rapid permeability. The soil was formed 17 WAIMEA TOWN CENTER — ZONING ADJUSTMENTS Parker Ranch, Inc./Hawai'i State Department of Education from material weathered from volcanic ash, basalt, and andesite. Waimea soils are used for pastures, grazing, and some truck crops. The naturally occurring vegetation is cactus (Opuntia megacantha), bermudagrass (Cynodon dactylon), and rattailgrass (Sporobolus carpensis). Detailed Land Classification Using a five level productivity rating from A (Excellent) to E (Very Poor), the 1967 Detailed Land Classification map from the Land Study Bureau categorizes the soils within the project site as N: Unclassified. None of the subject lands are categorized as A or B, soils which are considered important to maintain for agricultural purposes under Section 205- 4.5, HRS. The Detailed Land Classification map is shown in Figure 10. Agricultural Lands of Importance to the State of Hawai'i The Agricultural Lands of Importance to the State of Hawaii (ALISH) classification system identifies three types of agricultural lands based on characteristics such as soil quality, growing season, and moisture supply. The three classifications used are "prime", "unique", and "other important agricultural land". The majority of the lands within the project site are considered "prime" lands suitable for pasture and other agriculture, the remaining land is unclassified (see Figure 11).

The project area is an abandoned cattle pasture dominated by kikuyu grass and weeds. No listed, candidate or proposed endangered animal or plant species were found or would be expected in the area. The area does not appear to offer suitable habitat or harbor any such species. In terms of conservation value, no botanical or zoological resources requiring special protection are present. Because of the lack of native ecosystems and threatened or endangered plant species, no adverse biological impacts would occur as a result of the proposed action or any subsequent clearing and construction. For a more detailed discussion and list of plant species found in the project area please refer to the FEA found in Appendix A. 4.4 NATURAL HAZARDS The Hawaiian Islands are associated with volcanic eruptions and tropical hurricane hazards. All structures will be constructed for protection from earthquakes, tropical hurricanes, and cyclones in accordance with the Uniform Building Codes adopted by the County of Hawai'i. Flooding Parker Ranch recently constructed a drainage channel to divert the Waimea and Lanimaumau streams from the Waimea commercial center, near the project area. The Flood Insurance Rate Maps (FIRM) Panel No. 1 551 6601 68 classifies the project and surrounding lands as Outside the Floodplain/Minimal Flooding Area (Figure 12). Volcanism Volcanologists measure the level of eruption risk using a 1 to 9 scale, with 1 indicating an area of highest risk and 9 specifying lowest risk. Volcanologists have derived this scale using the historical probability of coverage by lava flows. According to this map, the project site sits near the margin between 8 & 9, evidence of its location near two extinct volcanoes: Kohala and Mauna Kea. The impacts of lava flows on the project site can only be mitigated with the intention of protecting life. Protection of property from lava inundation has proven to be relatively ineffective on a regional scale. Therefore, mitigation of lava flow hazards would be limited to the provision of adequate evacuation routes and civil defense warning systems designed to provide users of the property with advanced notice of a threatening lava flow. 22 23 Lw u 03 Q 21 2 Z" r: 41 z z -Z 20 21 2 Z" 41 z WAIMEA TOWN CENTER —ZONING ADJUSTMENTS Parker Ranch, Inc./Hawai'i State Department of Education Seismic Hazards In Hawaii, volcanic activity mostly produces area earthquakes in contrast to other areas sitting on tectonic plate margins. Thousands of earthquakes occur in Hawaii each year. However, the vast majority of them are undetectable through normal human senses. A few historical earthquakes have reached moderate and even disastrous magnitudes. The last earthquake reported with an epicenter near the project area, in Hualalai, occurred in 1929 with a magnitude of 6.5. This earthquake caused extensive damage to the Kona area. The most recent series of earthquakes, with magnitudes of 6.7 and 6.0, occurred at Kiholo Bay on October 15, 2006. These earthquakes resulted in more than $100 million in damages to the northwest area of the island, and induced massive electrical blackouts statewide. Damage associated with earthquakes may be mitigated by the adherence to the County's Uniform Building Code and Standards. All buildings and structures within the proposed project will be designed and constructed in compliance with applicable building codes and standards. Hurricane Hazards The State of Hawai'i has been affected twice in recent times by devastating hurricanes, 'Iwa in 1982 and 'Iniki in 1992. While it is difficult to predict these natural occurrences, it is reasonable to assume that future events could be likely given the recent record. The project area, as the rest of the island or State, is no more or less vulnerable to the destructive winds and torrential rains associated with hurricanes and cyclones. Designated Hurricane Shelters within a mile of the project include Waimea Elementary and Middle Public Charter Conversion Schools, and Waimea State Office Building. The project will not exacerbate any hazard conditions. The potential impact of destructive winds and torrential rainfall from tropical hurricanes and cyclones on structures within the project site will be mitigated by compliance with the Uniform Building Code adopted by the County of Hawai'i. All structures will be constructed for protection from earthquakes and tropical hurricanes and cyclones in accordance with the requirements of the County. 4.5 AIR AND NOISE QUALITY Air Quality Generally, air quality is affected by regional and local climate, together with the amount and type of human activity in a given location. Present air quality in the vicinity of the project site is mostly affected by emissions from natural and vehicular sources. The dominant factor for the past several years has been the sulfur dioxide gas emitted from 24 WAIMEA TOWN CENTER — ZONING ADJUSTMENTS Parker Ranch, Inc./Hawai'i State Department of Education Kilauea Volcano, which eventually drifts into the Waimea area from more than 40 miles away. Although the proposed development would increase traffic in the area, air quality is not expected to be adversely affected, as air pollutants would be dispersed rapidly by the prevailing wind. Short-term negative air quality impacts could occur due to construction activities, especially during clearing and grubbing operations. However covering transported materials, spraying water, and planting ground cover as soon as practical can mitigate these impacts. Noise Quality Noise in the general area is low and mainly from the adjacent Waimea school and, and even to a lesser degree, from the parking lot of the Kahilu Theatre and Parker Ranch Center. In the short term, construction will contribute to temporary increases in noise levels within the project area. Standards and guidelines established by the State Department of Health, such as limiting construction to daylight hours and requiring emission controls on motorized equipment, would be followed to mitigate the impact on ambient noise levels. Although some new noise would be generated by the increase in traffic and human activity onsite, no significant adverse noise impacts are expected to result from the proposed development. 4.6 SCENIC AND VISUAL RESOURCES No important view -planes or scenic sites recognized in the Hawai'i County General Plan, which recognizes a number of important vistas and scenic landmarks in Waimea are present. 4.7 ARCHAEOLOGICAL AND HISTORICAL RESOURCES A Final Preservation Plan was approved in 1994 by the State Historic Preservation Division. Given implementation of the measures specified in the Preservation Plan, no indirect impact from the proposed use of the exchange area (as a roadway and a school) would be expected. A more detailed discussion is described in the FEA included as Appendix A. 4.8 CULTURAL RESOURCES Based on the extensive archaeological, historical and oral history review undertaken, it would appear that there are no Traditional Cultural Properties or valued cultural, natural or historical resources within the project area. Furthermore, it is logical to conclude that based upon the lack of resources, no significant impacts on cultural resources, practices and beliefs are anticipated as a result of the proposed project. 25 WAIMEA TOWN CENTER — ZONING ADJUSTMENTS Parker Ranch, Inc./Hawai'i State Department of Education 4.9 SOCIO-ECONOMIC CHARACTERISTICS No adverse socio-economic effects would result from the proposed action, which would provide land for the desired expansion of the Waimea Elementary and Middle Public Charter Conversion School facilities, benefiting the growing population of Waimea. In the short term, the construction expenditures will provide some positive benefits to the local economy. This would include creation of some construction and construction - support jobs, and State and County tax revenues associated with construction expenditures. Detailed tables listing the Selected Socio -Economic Characteristics, by Districts and Population Trends are included in Appendix A. 4.10 SURROUNDING LAND USES AND ZONING As mentioned above, the State Land Use District for the entire exchange area is Urban. County zoning is mixed, with the Parker Ranch land divided between the Multi -Family Residential (RM -5), Village Commercial (CV -7.5) and the Agricultural (A -40a) zones. The entire State DOE exchange area is zoned A -40a. Adjacent zoning includes various urban classifications; the existing school site is zoned Single -Family Residential (RS -7.5). The General Plan LUPAG map designation for the exchange area is Low Density and Medium Density Urban. Since the Environmental Assessment process was completed in November 2001 and land exchange subsequently approved in 2003, Parker Ranch will consolidate and subdivide to expand the school lot and reduce the Parker Ranch lot, with the approval and concurrence of the State DOE. Recently, the State DOE has authorized Parker Ranch to rezone the property from A -40a to RS -7.5 (see Approval Letter from Superintendent Patricia Hamamoto, Appendix Q. The roads proposed for the area are permitted uses in the Urban State Land Use District and County, zones present will be rezoned as described in this Change of Zone application. 4.11 ACCESS AND CIRCULATION No public roadways exist near the project area; plans exist for the construction of a Planned Connector Road to the south, and Lindsey Road extension to the west of the project. These roads will create an alternative route around the town center, alleviating traffic through Waimea. 4.12 POTABLE WATER Water supplied to the Waimea area is provided by the County of Hawai'i Department of Water Supply (DWS). Generally, waterlines are located underground and routed along 26 WAIMEA TOWN CENTER — ZONING ADJUSTMENTS Parker Ranch, Inc./Hawai'i State Department of Education roadways. At this time there are no waterlines installed in the project area. During the design and construction phase of Waimea Schools, Parker Ranch and State DOE will coordinate with DWS to establish new service. 4.13 WASTEWATER DISPOSAL The State DOE will undertake coordination with Parker Ranch and the State Department of Health (including DPW, Wastewater Division, as appropriate), during the design and construction of expanded facilities for the Waimea Elementary and Middle Schools in order to determine the appropriate wastewater system. 4.14 SOLID WASTE DISPOSAL Residential and commercial solid waste from Waimea is hauled directly or via transfer stations to the landfill at Pu'uanahulu in North Kona, which is operated by the Hawai'i County Department of Public Works (DPW). The proposed action would not create any long-term increases in the generation or disposal of solid waste. 4.15 DRAINAGE No stormwater conveyance systems, such as culverts, inlets, catch -basins, and storm sewer lines, are present in or near the project area or would be affected in any way by the proposed project. Appropriate coordination with the DPW will be conducted during the construction of the school in order to determine the appropriate stormwater drainage facilities. 4.16 UTILITIES Electrical Power Given Hawaiian Electric Light Company's (HELCO) existing and projected reserve capacity and the projected power demands for the proposed project, the project is not anticipated to have a significant impact on HELCO's ability to meet the growing demand of the area. No overhead or underground electrical, communication, and cable television facilities would be affected by this project. Additionally, coordination with HELCO's engineers prior to development will insure that the provisions of electrical power are integrated with the planned utility system improvements in the area. Telephone and Cable Service Telephone and cable television services are distributed via both underground and overhead lines following highways and roadways. 27 WAIMEA TOWN CENTER — ZONING ADJUSTMENTS Parker Ranch, Inc./Hawai'i State Department of Education 4.17 POLICE AND FIRE PROTECTION The proposed action is not expected to have any adverse impact upon police or fire services. The expansion of the road network and decrease in congestion will assist these agencies in responding to calls more efficiently. A more detailed discussion of the existing facilities is discussed in Section 3.4.10 of Appendix A. 4.18 SCHOOLS The existing Waimea Elementary and Middle Public Charter Conversion Schools are located immediately adjacent to the project area. Waimea also supports several private schools, including Parker School, Hawai'i Preparatory Academy, and Hawai'i Montessori School, none of which are located near the project area or affected by the project. 4.19 PARKS Existing parks and recreational facilities in Waimea include Waimea County Park and Waimea Civic Center. In addition, Kahilu Theatre and the fields of Waimea and Elementary and Middle Public Charter Conversion Schools are located adjacent to the project area. The proposed project will not cause any adverse effects upon any of these facilities, and if the school grounds are expanded, there is a strong potential for addition of recreational space.

COUNTY ZONING APPENDIX 3 DEVELOPMENT AGREEMENT I APPENDIX 4 WAIMEA TOWN CENTER MAP ii Department ofE, Ranch Land Exchange Environmental Assessmenl SUMMARY OF THE PROPOSED ACTION ENVIRONMENTAL IMPACTS AND MITIGATION MEASURES The proposed action would involve an exchange of land in which Parker Ranch would convey title to a 4.988 -acre portion of TMK 6-7-2:17 to the State of Hawai' i, and the State of Hawai' i would convey title to a 0.78 acre portion of TMK 6-7-2:15 to Parker Ranch. The purposes of the land exchange are to: 1) allow for the future expansion of the Waimea School site, which would accommodate separate campuses for Waimea Elementary and Waimea Intermediate Schools; and 2) improve the design of the proposed extension of Lindsey Road by removing a curve present in the existing design for the road. The land exchange would allow for an approximately 18 -acre middle school and an approximately 12 -acre elementary school. These acreages will be consistent with Hawai' i State Department of Education (DOE) standard guidelines. Parents and other community members in Waimea have expressed concern about the need to expand the school in a number of meetings with the administration of the school and the DOE over the last several years. The DOE has been seeking land and funds for expansion of the school. The proposed project would provide needed land directly adjacent to the existing school campus, which would greatly facilitate the orderly division of the school into separate Elementary and Intermediate schools, while minimizing a number of infrastructure costs, such as roads, water and utilities. No substantial adverse impacts would occur. The site is a pasture with non-native flora and fauna. Archaeological sites, in the form of a portion of a low wall and a former irrigation channel, are present, but data recovery has already been conducted and the sites are considered no longer significant. r Department of Education/Parker Ranch Land Exchange Environmental Assessment PART l: PROJECT LOCATION, DESCRIPTION AND PURPOSE AND NEED 1.1 Project Location and Project Description The proposed land exchange involves two adjacent pieces of property within the ahupua'a of Waimea, in the South Kohala District on the Island of Hawaii (Figs. 1-2). The Parker Ranch property is a 4.988 -acre portion of TMK 6-7-2:17. The portion of the State of Hawaii property (TMK 6-7-2:15) that would be exchanged contains 0.78 acres. These portions will be referred to throughout the EA as the exchange area. 1.2 Purpose and Need The Hawaii State Department of Education (DOE) and Parker Ranch have entered into a Development Agreement that would involve the exchange of Parker Ranch land for State Land that is currently under Executive Order to the DOE (see App. 3 for text of agreement). The purposes of the land exchange are to: 1) allow for the future expansion of the Waimea School site, which would accommodate separate campuses for Waimea Elementary and Waimea Intermediate Schools; and 2) improve the design of the proposed extension of Lindsey Road by removing a curve present in the existing design for the road. The exchange would have Parker Ranch dedicate 4.988 acres of land to the State of Hawaii, while the State would dedicate 0.78 acres to Parker Ranch. The combined enrollment of Waimea Elementary School and Intermediate School has risen to levels of about 1,200 students in the last decade (Hawai'i County Data Book 1993, var. years.). In June 2001, enrollment stood at 1,146 students. The land exchange would allow for an approximately 18 -acre middle school and an approximately 12 -acre elementary school. These acreages will be consistent with Hawaii State Department of (` Education (DOE) standard guidelines. Parents and other community members in t Waimea have expressed concern about the need to expand the school in a number of meetings with the administration of the school and the DOE over the last several years. The DOE has been seeking land and funds for expansion of the school. The proposed project would provide needed land directly adjacent to the existing school campus, which would greatly facilitate the orderly division of the school into separate Elementary and Intermediate schools, while minimizing a number of infrastructure costs, such as roads, I water and utilities. The Lindsey Road Extension is part of the circulation network of the Waimea Town Center (WTC), a proposed development of Parker Ranch (see map, App. 4). The Waimea Town Center was planned in the 1980s by then -owner Richard Smart to provide additional urban land in the center of Waimea, rather than the highway margins, to preserve the compact, village -like character of the town. The County approved the original plan in 1992 by Ordinance 92-65. After Mr. Smart died in 1992, the assets of the Ranch went to the Parker Ranch Foundation, which is set up to benefit the residents of Waimea through funding of Parker School, Hawai' i Preparatory Academy, North Hawaii Community Hospital, and grants funded in Waimea by the Hawaii Community Department of Education/Parker Ranch Land Exchange Environmental Assessment Foundation. The Parker Ranch Foundation subsequently modified the plan in response to evolving community concerns and to meet the fiduciary responsibilities of the Parker Ranch Foundation. The modifications were approved in an amendment to the rezoning ordinance in 1996. In overview, the WTC area includes about 360 acres, including approximately 100 acres of commercial zoned lands, 37 acres of multiple -family zoned lands, about 140 acres of single family residential zoned lands, 40 acres of residential -agricultural zoned lands (1 -acre lot sizes) and about 40 acres of A -40a zoned lands (the original zoning). The WTC plan will also include over 40 acres of park and open space areas. The initial phases of the WTC — which involve improvements to the commercial Parker Ranch Center — have already begun. The remainder of the WTC plan will be implemented over the next 15 to 25 years. It is important to note that this Environmental Assessment (EA) applies to the land exchange only, and not the actual design or construction of the school. Because the exchange makes construction of a school on the site possible, general impacts relating to the use of the site as a school are described and evaluated. However, it is premature to evaluate more specific elements of school design such as detailed building layouts, utility requirements, access and traffic patterns, etc. At the appropriate time in the development process, the DOE will meet any additional requirements of Chapter 343, HRS. It is also important to note that the Waimea Town Center (which has undergone environmental analysis separately as part of the rezoning process) in no way depends upon the proposed exchange for fulfillment of its goals. Rather, the exchange would simply improve the design geometry of the Lindsey Road Extension. 1.3 Summary of Regulatory Requirements This Environmental Assessment (EA) process is being conducted in accordance with Chapter 343 of the Hawaii Revised Statutes (HRS). This law, along with its implementing regulations, Title 11, Chapter 200, of the Hawaii Administrative Rules (HAR), is the basis for the environmental impact process in the State of Hawaii. According to Chapter 343, an EA is prepared to determine impacts associated with an action, to develop mitigation measures for adverse impacts, and to determine whether any of the impacts are significant according to thirteen specific criteria. Part 5 of this document lists these criteria and the preliminary findings made by the State of Hawaii Department of Education. Accordingly, if this study concludes that no significant impacts would occur from implementation of the proposed action, then the Department of Education will issue a Finding of No Significant Impact (FONSI). If this study finds that significant impacts are expected to occur as a result of the proposed action, then an Environmental Impact Statement (EIS) will be prepared. 2 Department of Education/Parker Ranch Land Exchange Environmental Assessment 1.4 Public Involvement and Agency Coordination The following agencies and organizations have been consulted during the Environmental Assessment Process: County: Planning Department County Council Department of Public Works Police Department State: Board of Land and Natural Resources, Hawaii Island Member Department of Land and Natural Resources, Historic Preservation Division Department of Land and Natural Resources, Na Ala Hele Program Department of Land and Natural Resources, Land Management Division Office of Hawaiian Affairs Waimea Elementary and Intermediate School Private: Waimea Main Street Program Waimea Community Association South Kohala Traffic Safety Committee Copies of communications received during preconsultation are contained in Appendix IA.

Final EA,s underlined with dotted lines n,the,text of thg,Fnal EA; .......... PART 2: ALTERNATIVES 2.1 Proposed Action The proposed Action is described in Section 1.1 above, and the subject parcels and exchange area are illustrated in Figures 1-3. 2.2 No Action Under the No -Action Alternative, no land exchange would occur, and the expansion of Waimea School would occur either through purchase or condemnation of this or nearby land, or through development of a non -adjacent property. The extension of Lindsey Road would be accomplished with a less than optimum design. This EA considers the No -Action Alternative as the baseline by which to compare environmental effects from the proposed exchange, and for the purposes of this EA, assumes that no development would occur on the site. No other alternatives appear able to satisfy the purpose and need for this action, which is to allow expansion of the Waimea School complex and accommodate a better design for Lindsey Road. 3 Department of Education/Parker Ranch Land Exchange Environmental Assessment PART 3: ENVIRONMENTAL SETTING, IMPACTS AND MITIGATION 3.1 Basic Geographic Setting The exchange properties are situated just mauka (east) of the existing Waimea Elementary and Intermediate School and the Kahilu Theater at about 2,680 feet in elevation (Figs. 1-2). The Parker Ranch property is used for pasture; the State property is vacant and has no current land uses. The weather in this part of Waimea is cool, with frequent drizzle and fog. The average maximum daily temperature is approximately 75 degrees F., with an average minimum of 65 degrees. Annual rainfall averages approximately 75 inches in the heart of Waimea (U.H. Hilo -Geography 1998:57). Geologically, the site is located on Holocene lava flows covered with ash deposits from Mauna Kea (MacDonald et al 1983:350-351; Wolfe and Morris 1996). The topography is gently rolling. The surface has weathered through time to produce deep, well -drained soils with low shrink -swell potential. The specific soil type found on the exchange area is Waimea Very Fine Sandy Loams (U.S. Soil Conservation Service 1973). Lanimaumau Stream, an intermittent drainage that was used for irrigation in pre -Contact and historic times, ran directly through the Parker Ranch parcel until 1996, when it was diverted as part of a flood -control project. The area is primarily vegetated with introduced grasses and weeds, with scattered shrubs and trees (see Fig. 3 for site photos). 3.2 Physical Environment 3.2.1 Drainage, Flooding and Hazards Environmental Setting The project site is mapped on the Flood Insurance Rate Maps (FIRM) Panel No. 155166- 0168E (Fig. 4). The current map shows Lanimaumau Stream, an intermittent drainage, and its associated floodplain traversing the property. The area shown on the map is depicted as Zones A and AE, which are defined as a Special Flood Hazard Area subject to inundation by the 100 -year flood. In Zone AE, flood elevations have been determined in a Flood Insurance Study by detailed methods. In 1996, Parker Ranch constructed a drainage channel to divert the Waimea and Lanimaumau streams from the Waimea commercial core. This diversion allowed the construction of the North Hawai'i community hospital, which was until that time within the existing drainageway. Parker Ranch is currently undertaking a LOMR (Letter of Map Revision) that will officially revise the FIRM maps in recognition of the alteration of the stream flow by this drainage channel. Once the map adjustments are approved and the LOMR is granted, the floodway designations within the exchange area will be eliminated. 4 Department or Education/Parker Ranch Land Exchange Environmental Assessment The entire Big Island is subject to geologic hazards, especially lava flows and earthquakes. The exchange area's location on the margin of the extinct Kohala volcano and the dormant Mauna Kea volcano leads to a low risk level: Lava Flow Hazard Zone 8 (on a scale of ascending.risk 9 to 1). Zone 8 areas have been free of lava flows for the last 750 years and have had only a few percent covered during the last 10,000 years (see Heliker 1990). In terms of seismic risk, the entire Island of Hawaii is rated Zone 4 Seismic Probability Rating (Uniform Building Code, 1997 Edition, Figure 16-2). Zone 4 areas are at risk from major earthquake damage, especially to structures that are poorly designed or built. Impacts and Mitigation Measures In general, geologic and drainage conditions impose no substantial constraints on the proposed action. It is expected that the LOMR will have been granted by the time the Department of Education is ready to build a school, and no designated floodplain will be present on the exchange parcels. Although the region is exposed to some hazard from earthquakes, the action presents no additional hazard to the public and is not imprudent to undertake, because there is no alternative that would not have similar hazard exposure characteristics. All structures will conform to the Uniform Building Code 3.2.2 Flora and Fauna Existing Environment The exchange area was inspected for biological resources in September 2000. The general area was formerly a Koa/'Ohi'a Montane Mesic Forest (Gagne and Cuddihy 1990), but is now primarily abandoned cattle pasture dominated by Kikuyu grass (Pennisetum clandestinum) and various introduced weeds. `Ilima, (.Sida fallax) was the only native plant species encountered. A complete species list is provided in Table 1. No threatened or endangered plant species were detected, and, based on the long history of human land use in the area, none were expected to be found. Because of the near- complete absence of native Hawaiian plants, the exchange area and surrounding areas site represent extremely poor potential habitat for any threatened or endangered vertebrate species. The exchange area does not appear to contain any valuable ecosystems, or to offer suitable habitat for or harbor any such species. No listed, candidate or proposed endangered animal or plant species were found or would be expected in the area. In terms of conservation value, no botanical or zoological resources requiring special protection are present. 5 Department gfEducution/Parker Ranch Lund Exchange Environmental Assessment Impuc•ts and Mitigution Measures Because of the lack of native ecosystems and threatened or endangered plant species, no adverse biological impacts would occur as a result of the proposed action or any subsequent clearing and construction. riant Table 1 in Exchange Area Scientific name Common name Abutilon grundifolium Hairy Abutilon Agave sp.

The persistent tradewinds keep this area relatively free of vog for most of the year. Noise in the general area is low and derived mainly from the adjacent school, and to a lesser extent, from the parking lot of the Kahilu Theater and Parker Ranch Center. The exchange area has little scenic value in itself, although it offers good vistas of Mauna Kea. Several adjacent sites, including the existing Waimea Elementary and Intermediate School Site and the parking lot and entrance of the Kahilu Theater, view Mauna Kea at least partially over the site (Fig. 3). No important viewplanes or scenic sites recognized in the Hawai' i County General Plan, which recognizes a number of important vistas and 6 Department of 'Educutiun/Purker Ranch Lund Exchange Environmental Assessment scenic landmarks in Waimea, are present (Hawai'i County Planning Department 1989: Exh. C, p. 34). Impucts and Mitigation Meusures The proposed action would not affect air quality or noise levels. Future construction of the school and roadway have been accounted for in all planning documents for the area. No adverse air quality or noise impacts to or from the exchange area would be expected. The proposed action would make it likely that a school would be built on a site that now is part of a view from the existing school and Kahilu Theater over a pasture towards Mauna Kea. The foreground of this view would be roadway and school grounds instead. Appropriate school landscaping would minimize any adverse impacts of this conversion. No important viewplanes or scenic sites recognized in the Hawaii County General Plan would be affected. 3.2.4 Hazardous Substances, Toxic Waste and Hazardous Conditions A Phase 1 Environmental Site Assessment was performed for the Waimea Town Center area in 2001 (PSI 2001) in order to determine if hazardous substances, toxic waste, or hazardous conditions were present. No permanent or temporary land use that would tend to result in these conditions appears to have ever occurred on the exchange area, which is pasture land. According to PSI: "During the Phase I ESA site reconnaissance, the 4.988 acres of land located south of an adjacent to the Waimea Elementary and Intermediate Schools was traversed. This portion of land was vacant and undeveloped, and being used for grazing cattle by Parker Ranch. No evidence of a recognized environmental condition was observed..." No hazardous substances, toxic waste or hazardous conditions appear to be present in any portion of the exchange area. -1 3.3 Socioeconomic and Cultural 3.3.1 Land Ownership and Land Use, Designations and Controls Existing Environment The 4.988 -acre property that makes up most of the exchange area is part of a parcel owned by Parker Ranch. Surrounding land, including the portion of the State parcel that would be exchanged, is owned by the State of Hawaii. 7 Department gr Education/Parker Ranch Lund Exchange Environmental Assessment The State Land Use District for the entire exchange areas is Urban. County zoning is mixed, with the Parker Ranch land divided between the RM -5 (Residential Multi -Family) and the A -40a (Agricultural, 40 -acre lot size minimum) zones (Fig. 5). The entire DOE exchange area is zoned A -40a. Adjacent zoning includes various urban classifications; the existing school site is zoned RS -7. The General Plan Land Use Pattern Allocation Guide Map LUPAG designation for the exchange area is Low Density and Medium Density Urban. Impacts and Mitigation Measures Once the Environmental Assessment process is completed and the land exchange approved in principle, Parker Ranch will undertake a consolidation and resubdivision to expand the school lot and reduce the Parker Ranch lot, with the approval and concurrence of DOE. At that time, the DOE will have the option of rezoning the property to an urban classification or seeking the necessary approvals to allow construction and operation of a school partially within in the A-40 zone. The roads proposed for the area are permitted uses in the Urban State Land Use District and all County zones present, and no rezoning would be required. 3.3.2 Socioeconomic Characteristics Existing Environment: Social Characteristics Waimea has been headquarters for Parker Ranch for over a century and a half. The - growing town has a rich history and a dramatic setting in the misty uplands. A substantial area of Hawaiian Home Lands supporting farms and ranches is also present. The last twenty years have seen rapid growth in population and economic activity in Waimea. The charming cattle town is now also an enclave for transplanted mainlanders and a bedroom community for workers at the South Kohala resorts. Socioeconomic characteristics for South Kohala reveal a diverse community (Table 2).

The combined enrollment of Waimea Elementary School and Intermediate School has risen to levels of about 1,200 students in the last decade (Hawai'i County Data Book 1993, var. years.), and stood at 1,146 in June of 2001. The land exchange would allow for an approximately 18 -acre middle school and an approximately 12 -acre elementary school. These acreages will be consistent with Hawaii State Department of Education (DOE) standard guidelines. Impacts and Mitigation Measures No adverse socioeconomic effects would result from the proposed action, which would provide land for the desired expansion of the Waimea Elementary and Intermediate School facilities, benefiting the growing population of Waimea. 3.3.3 Archaeology, Historic Sites and Cultural Setting Archaeology: Environmental Setting, Impacts and Mitigation Measures V A rich historic heritage comprising many historic sites from pre -Western Contact and historic times is evident in Waimea. Sites include field systems, irrigation features, ranch buildings, stone corrals and walls, kuleana sites, and historic buildings. During the period from 1970- 2001, several archaeologists, including International Archaeological Research Institute, Inc., (IARII) conducted various studies involving the exchange area or nearby sites. Most perti- nent to the exchange area are an archaeological investigation of the Kuleana Lots at Pukalani (State Historic Site 50-10-06-8812) (IARII 1997), and a Preservation Plan for archaeological and other historic sites present on a 390 -acre area of Parker Ranch that included most of TMK 3-7-02:17 (IARII 2001). The foldout map in the March 8, 2001 letter from IARII to SHPD in App. la identifies historic sites in relation to the exchange area. The issue of archaeological and architectural historic sites for the majority of acreage within the exchange area was dealt with as part of these studies. The remaining areas (approximately 1.73 acres) had not been previously inventoried, and were therefore addressed during consultation with the State Historic Preservation Division (SHPD) as part of this Environmental Assessment. 10 .Department of EducationlParker Ranch Land Exchange Environmental Assessment 1960 1970 1980 1990 2000 Hawaii County 61,332 63,468 92,053 120,317 148,677 South Hilo 31,553 33,915 42,278 44,639 47,386 North Kona 4,451 4,832 13;748 22,284 28,543 South Kohala 1,538 2,310 4,607 9,140 13,131 Sources: U.S. Bureau of the Census: 1990 Census of Population.

The first is Lyon's Auwai (Historic Site 50-10-06-9179), which is derived from an ancient irrigation auwai that was extensively modified at various times between 1792 and 1847. The second is a portion of a stone wall designated as Feature 1 of Historic Site 50-10-06-8808, a field system. Both of these historic sites were determined by SHPD to be important for data recovery, which has already been accomplished as part of a number of archaeological investigations. Consultation with SHPD has determined that the data recovery for the larger extent of the sites found outside the project area also mitigated for the effects of removing the portions of these sites that are contained on the exchange area (see letter from SHPD in App. 1 a). Therefore, proper mitigation for impacts to these historic sites has occurred, and no direct impacts to significant historic sites would occur as a result of any clearing or construction that might ensue the proposed action. Indirect impacts upon nearby historic sites were also been considered. IARII prepared a draft Preservation Plan for archaeological and other historic sites present on a 390 -acre area of Parker Ranch that included most of TMK 3-7-02:17 (IARII 2001). This plan dealt with three clusters of historic sites that required consideration in the area: the Pukalani Stables (Historic Sites [50-10-06-] 8812, 19417, 19418, and 19419), a Bullock Pen (Historic Sites 21869, 21870 and 21871), and a preservation area for various agricultural features (Historic Sites 21855 and 8807). The measures that would be implemented as part of the Preservation Plan are meant to preserve key parts of both the traditional Hawaiian agricultural landscape and the ranching heritage of Waimea. As illustrated in the foldout map in the IARII letter, these sites are somewhat near the exchange area. The plan has been designed to minimize direct and indirect impact to these historic sites that would occur through development of the Waimea Town Center, which will result in development surrounding these sites (including the Lindsey Road Extension). The final version of the Preservation Plan, which has been under development since 1994, is undergoing review by the State Historic Preservation Division. The principal elements of this plan consist of short-term measures to protect designated historic sites during construction and monitoring for inadvertent finds, and long-term measures including buffer zones, active management for protection and restoration (as appropriate), interpretation and research. Given implementation of the measures specified in the Preservation Plan, no indirect impact from the use of proposed use of the exchange area (as a roadway and a school) would be expected. Cultural Resources: Environmental Setting The traditional cultural value of the land on which the parcels are located was assessed by determining whether the exchange area supported any traditional gathering uses, were vital for access to traditional cultural sites, or had other important symbolic associations 11 Department of Education/Parker Ranch Lund Exchange Environmental Assessment for native Hawaiians. The land in many parts of Waimea, including the exchange area, has along history of exclusive dedication to ranching. The IARII report (1997) on the nearby Pukalani Stables area (see foldout map of March 8, 2001 IARII letter in App. 1 a) included research on the cultural context of the area, and is the source of much of the information that follows in this section. The exchange area is located within the 'vkana (district) of Kohala, in the ahupua'a of Waimea, within the 'i1i of Waikoloa. According to IARII (1997), there is little information on traditional Hawaiian settlement patterns and land use prior to the major changes wrought by Western introduction of goods, diseases, animals and cultigens. Kamehameha I gave management rights of Waikoloa to Isaac Davis, who later passed it to his son Hueu Davis. Early historical sources give the impression of scattered settlement along Waikoloa Stream. Even as late as 1823, after disease had likely decimated the population, as many as 1,200 people lived in the three miles between 'Ouli and Pu'u Kapu, with perhaps 300 in Waimea town itself (Ibid: 11). With a network of irrigation canals ('auwai) and relatively good soil, irrigated agriculture of taro, sweet potatoes and sugar cane was successfully practiced. Hundreds of parcels were claimed in Waimea as art of the Land Commission Awards (LCAs) associated with the Mahele in the mid- 19`�century, many near Waikoloa Stream. Although there were evidently many Hawaiian residents of Waimea who possessed land capable of supporting traditional Hawaiian land use, the institution of a Western monetary system undermined the traditional economic basis and dramatically altered society. The harvest of wild sandalwood in the early 19`h century and of pulu (the fluffy orange coating around tree fern shoots, which served as a stuffing for mattresses and pillows) later in the century were both economically and environmentally disastrous. Chinese immigrants began growing and milling sugar cane in Waimea in the early 1830s. This production tapped into the existing 'auwai system. Plantation leases and mills were bought and sold, and the net result was to displace many Hawaiians who had lived in areas desired for fields. Cotton farming and ginning, sawmills, and various other economic ventures had their day on the landscape of Waimea, but the venture that brought lasting change was cattle. The cattle brought by Captain Vancouver in 1793 and 1794, protected by a kapu placed on them by Kamehameha, multiplied rapidly. By the time the kapu was lifted a few years later, wild cattle had become rampant throughout the island, disturbing native gardens and damaging streams, grasslands and forests. Foreign bullock hunters were then employed to keep the herds under control. Although the meat was eaten, the main economic products were the hides. John Parker worked for Governor Kuakini as a bullock hunter in 1831, and before long had founded the famous ranch that still bears his name. By 1847, as Reverend Lorenzo Lyons noted, "two thirds of Waimea has been converted into a government pasture land" (quoted from Doyle 1945:48 in IARII 1997:19). Cattle ranching profoundly changed life in Waimea by displacing native agriculture, firmly establishing a monetary economy, altering the landscape and forests through direct and indirect means, and bringing in foreigners. 12 Deparlmenl of Eduealion/Parker Ranch Lund Exchange Environmental Assessment During the 19'h and 20`h centuries, the exchange area was used for cattle ranching and extensive agriculture. An aerial photo of Waimea from 1925 (IARII 1997:30) shows little but pasture in the general vicinity of the exchange area. The 1997 IARII report, which specifically covered several kuleana lots at Pukalani, some 1,600 feet northeast of the exchange area, included the results of extensive oral histories. Individuals knowledgeable about the historical and cultural resources of the area, some of whom remembered events as early as 1914, were interviewed about historic sites, potential burials, and traditional practices of this cattle ranching area. No valued natural, cultural or historical resources appear to have been identified within the pastured exchange area. To the informants' knowledge, burials were restricted to several already known small, family cemeteries. There is no evidence of traditional activities on or near the exchange area, whether for gathering, ceremonial, or access purposes. Cultural Resources: Impacts and Mitigation Measures Based on the extensive archaeological, historical and oral history review undertaken by IARII (1997), it would appear that there are no Traditional Cultural Properties or valued cultural, natural or historical resources within the exchange area. It is reasonable to 1 conclude that based upon the lack of resources, the exercise of native Hawaiian rights related to gathering, access or other customary activities will not be affected, and there will be no adverse effect upon cultural practices or beliefs. f` 3.3.4 Agricultural Land Existing Environment The exchange area has a gently rolling surface with covered by Mauna Kea ash, which has weathered through time to produce a deep, well -drained soils known as Waimea Very Fine Sandy Loam (Wolfe and Morris 1996; U.S. Soil Conservation Service 1973). The agricultural utility of the land was assessed in the 1970s by the U.S. Soil Conservation Service and mapped as part of the Agricultural Lands of Importance to the State of Hawaii (ALISH) map series. Three categories of valuable agricultural land are identified: Prime, Unique, and Other (Baker 1976:4). Prime Land "has the soil quality, growing season, and moisture supply needed to produce sustained high yields of crops economically when treated and managed ... according to modern farming methods" (lbid:2). The entire exchange area is considered Prime Land, suitable for pasture and other agriculture. Impacts and Mitigation Measures The entire area is identified in the General Plan for urban uses. The removal of this area from agricultural purposes has thus been evaluated as part of rezoning actions that considered the context of the region, which contains thousands of acres of Prime, Unique and Other Important Agricultural Land. No adverse impact to agriculture or agricultural land will occur. 13 Department of Education/Parker Ranch Lund Exchange Environmental Assessment 3.4 Public Facilities 3.4.1 Recreational Facilities Existing Facilities and Impacts Several recreational facilities are present in Waimea, including Waimea County Park and Waimea Civic Center. In addition, the Kahilu Theater and the fields of Waimea Elementary and Intermediate Schools are located adjacent to the exchange area. The proposed exchange would not induce any adverse effects upon any of these facilities, and if the school grounds are expanded, there is a strong potential for addition of recreational space. 3.4.2 Educational Facilities Existing Facilities and Impacts Waimea Elementary and Intermediate Schools are immediately adjacent to the exchange area, and the beneficial impact of accommodating the expansion of these schools is the principal reason for the proposed exchange. Waimea also supports several private schools, including Parker School, Hawai' i Preparatory Academy, and Hawai' i Montessori School, none of which are located near the exchange area nor would be affected by the action. 3.4.3 Medical Facilities Existing Facilities and Impacts North Hawaii Community Hospital is located on Highway 19 in Waimea, about a quarter mile from the exchange area. The proposed action would have no adverse impact upon the hospital or any other medical facility. 3.4.4 Electrical, Telephone and Cable Services Existing Facilities and ,4ervices Electrical power on the island of Hawai' i is provided by Hawai' i Electric Light Company (HELCO), a privately owned utility company regulated by the State Public Utilities Commission, via their island -wide distribution network. As of the beginning of the year 2000, HELCO had a total of 52,277 residential customers and an additional 10,201 General Load, Commercial Cooking and Heating, Large Power Service, and Street Lighting accounts (Hawai'i County R&D: 2000). HELCO's distribution system principally of overhead (with limited underground) transmission lines. Overhead lines typically consist of 46 kilovolt (kV) or 12.47 kV primary circuits routed largely along highways and roadways. 14 Department of'Educulion/Purker Ranch Land Exchange Environmental Assessment W Telephone and cable television services are available within various areas of the island. Such services are provided by Verizon Hawaii (formerly GTE Hawaiian Tel), and Sun Cablevision (in West Hawai'i). Services are distributed via both underground and overhead lines following highways and roadways. No overhead or underground electrical, telephone or CATV utility lines are present on or near the exchange area. Impacts and Mitigation Measures The proposed action would not have any substantial on existing electrical facilities or HELCO's ability to provide electricity. No overhead or underground electrical, communication, and cable television facilities would be affected by this project. Appropriate coordination with these utility companies will be conducted during the design and construction of this school in order to establish new services and minimize disruptions existing services. 3.4.5 Water Supply Existing Facilities and Impacts Potable water in the Waimea area is provided by the County of Hawaii Department of T" Water Supply (DWS). Waterlines are generally buried underground and are often routed along roadways. No waterlines exist in the area, and no aspect of water service would be impacted by the proposed action. Appropriate coordination with DWS will be conducted during the design and construction of this school in order to establish new service. 3.4.6 Wastewater Existing Facilities and Impacts As is the case with most of the island outside the core of Hilo and Kailua-Kona, Waimea currently lacks municipal wastewater service and depends on cesspools and septic tanks. As part of its WTC development, Parker Ranch has constructed a Sewage Treatment Plant (STP) and transmission lines to serve a portion of Waimea. There is a temporary sewer line within the exchange area, which will be relocated by Parker Ranch. The wastewater system is privately owned and maintained by Parker Ranch. If the DOE desires to connect to this system in the future, the sewer service area will require expansion to include the school site. In any case, the DOE will undertake coordination with Parker Ranch and the Hawai' i State Department of Health (as well as the Hawai' i County Department of Public Works, Wastewater Division, as appropriate), during the design and construction of this school in order to determine the appropriate wastewater system. 15 Department of Education/Parker Ranch Land Exchange Environmental Assessment 3.4.7 Stormwater Drainage Facilities - Existing Facilities and Impacts No stormwater conveyance systems, such as culverts, inlets, catch -basins, and storm sewer lines, are present in or near the exchange area or would be affected in any way by the proposed action. Appropriate coordination with the Hawai'i County Department of Public Works will be conducted during the design and construction of this school in order to determine the appropriate stormwater drainage facilities. 3.4.8 Solid Waste Existing Conditions and Impacts Residential and commercial solid waste from Waimea is hauled directly or via transfer stations to the landfill at Pu'uanahulu in North Kona, which is operated by the Hawai'i County Department of Public Works (DPW). In addition, there are several green waste facilities within the County. At Pu'uanahulu, the initial 30 -acre increment of the 300 -acre landfill was opened in 1993 with a projected capacity of six to eleven years. Additional 30 -acre increments are expected to be required every five years thereafter. The proposed action would not create any long-term increases in the generation or disposal of solid waste. 3.4.9 Transportation Facilities Existing Facilities No public roadways exist near the exchange parcels. It is important to note that optimizing the geometry of the future Lindsey Road Extension, which will be built by Parker Ranch and dedicated to the County of Hawai'i, is the secondary reason for the proposed land exchange. In addition, a public roadway will also be built across the middle of the exchange area (see Fig. 1). Impacts and Mitigation Measures The proposed action will benefit the transportation infrastructure of Waimea by facilitating an alternate route around the center of Waimea. The project has been reviewed by and received support from the South Kohala Traffic Safety Committee (see letter of 3 November 2000, App. l A) Construction and operation of the school is expected to have short-term and long-term traffic impacts. In response to a preconsultation letter, the Hawai'i County Police Department acknowledged the importance of the proposed Waimea Town Center roads in addressing overall circulation problems in Waimea. However, the Department expressed concern that: 16 Department of Education/Parker Ranch Lund Exchange Environmental Assessment "...adequate area for parent and buses to drop off students and minimize students crossing roadways should be considered. We recommend a one-way in/out with drop off for school traffic." (see letter of 25 October 2000, App. l A). While it is premature to discuss design details of the layout of the school that is expected to be built on land provided as a result of the proposed action, DOE planners have been made aware of the recommendation and will include consideration of it in the school's design. 3.4.10 Police and Fire Services Existing Facilities/,Services and Impacts The Hawaii County Police Department (HCPD) has law enforcement jurisdiction throughout the entire island of Hawaii. HCPD is headquartered in Hilo, with a station in Waimea as well. The Hawai' i County Fire Department (HCFD) has fire protection jurisdiction throughout the entire island of Hawaii. A station is present in Waimea. Firefighters must respond to emergency medical, hazardous condition, rescue, building fires, brush and other outdoor fires, and vehicle fires. The proposed action is not expected to have any adverse impact upon police or fire services. The expansion of the road network and decrease in congestion will assist these agencies is responding to calls. 3.5 Secondary and Cumulative Impacts Cumulative impacts result when implementation of several projects that individually have limited impacts combine to produce more severe impacts or conflicts in mitigation measures. The principal existing or planned project with the potential to have combined effects with the proposed project is the Waimea Town Center that Parker Ranch plans to build in the immediately adjacent region. The eventual use of this land as a school has been an integral consideration in planning efforts for Waimea Town Center. In order to avoid any conflicts in land use needs, Parker Ranch has planned to assist the DOE in obtaining the land it might require for school expansion; the proposed action is a result of this planning. The road system, land use types, drainage improvements, historic site preservation, and other aspects of the Waimea Town Center have been designed to accommodate the expected school traffic, noise, and land use requirements. Cumulative impacts have thus been considered, and avoided, as part of planning. 17 Department of Education/Parker Ranch Lund Exchange Environmental Assessment 3.6 Required Permits and Approvals The proposed action does not require any approvals or permits other than approval of a Land Exchange by the Hawai' i State Board of Land and Natural Resources. The proposal is also subject to disapproval by the State Legislature. In the future, if a school is built on the site in accordance with current plans, several other permits will be required: County of Hawaii: Change of Zone (potential) Grading and Grubbing Permits Building Permits Plan Approval State of Hawaii National Pollutant Discharge Elimination System Permit 3.7 Consistency With Government Plans and Policies The Hawaii State Plan. Adopted in 1978 and last revised in 1991 (Hawai' i Revised Statutes, Chapter 226, as amended), the Plan establishes a set of themes, goals, objectives and policies that are meant to guide the State's long -run growth and development activities. The three themes that express the basic purpose of the Hawaii State Plan are individual and family self-sufficiency, social and economic mobility and community or social well-being. The proposed land exchange would promote these goals by providing land for the desired expansion of a public education facility and optimizing design for a public roadway. Hawaii State Land Use Law. All land in the State of Hawaii is classified into one of four land use categories — Urban, Rural, Agricultural, or Conservation — by the State Land Use Commission, pursuant to Chapter 205, HRS. All of the exchange area is within the Urban District, and the proposed uses as a school and a road are permitted uses. Hawai 'i County General Plan. The General Plan for the County of Hawai' i is a policy document expressing the broad goals and policies for the long-range development of the Island of Hawaii. The plan was adopted by ordinance in 1989. The General Plan itself is organized into thirteen elements, with policies, objectives, standards, and principles for each. There are also discussions of the specific applicability of each element to the nine judicial districts comprising the County of Hawaii. Section 4 of the General Plan includes a discussion of general goals. In Section 5 courses of action for individual districts are proposed. The following are relevant: 18 Department of Education/Parker Ranch Land Exchange Environmental Assessment Transportation Goals: 1. Provide a transportation system whereby people and goods can move efficiently, safely, comfortably and economically. 2. Make available a variety of modes of transportation which best meets the needs of the County. 3. Provide a system of thoroughfares and streets for the safe, efficient and comfortable movement of people and goods between and within the various sections of the County. 4. Provide an integrated State and County system so that new major routes would complement and encourage proposed land uses. Transportation Policies: 1. A framework of transportation facilities which would promote and influence desired land use shall be established by concerned agencies. 2. The agencies concerned with transportation systems should provide for present traffic and future demands, including mass transit programs for high growth areas. 3. The improvement of transportation service shall be encouraged. Land Use Goals 1. Designate and allocate land uses in appropriate proportions and mix and in keeping with social, cultural, and physical environments of the County. 2. Protect and encourage the intensive utilization of the County's important agricultural lands. Land Use Policies 1. Zone urban -and rural types of uses in areas with ease of access to community services and employment centers and with adequate public utilities and facilities. The agencies concerned with transportation systems should provide for present traffic and future demands, including mass transit programs for high growth areas. Specific Courses of Action: South Kohala. 1. Department of Education shall develop a master plan for Waimea School which provides for an expanded intermediate school, improved access and parking areas. In improving the transportation system, providing an appropriate location for a needed public service, and specifically responding to a recommended Course of Action, the proposed action is highly consistent with the Hawaii County General Plan. 19 Department of Education/Parker Ranch Land Exchange Environmental Assessment It should be noted that the Hawai'i County General Plan is currently in the final stages of a periodic update. The proposed action is unlikely to be inconsistent with any aspect of the update. The Hawaii County General Plan Land Use Pattern Allocation Guide (LUPAG). The LUPAG map component of the General Plan is a graphic representation of the Plan's goals, policies, and standards as well as of the physical relationship between land uses. It also establishes the basic urban and non -urban form for areas within the planned public and cultural facilities, public utilities and safety features, and transportation corridors. The exchange area is designated on this map as Low and Medium Density Urban. The proposed action, and the construction of the school that may result from it, are consistent with this designation. PART 4: DETERMINATION The Hawaii State Department of Education has determined that the proposed project will not significantly alter the environment, as impacts will be minimal, and that Environmental Impact Statement is not warranted. Therefore, it has issued a Finding of No Significant Impact (FONSI). PART 5: FINDINGS AND REASONS Chapter 11-200-12, Hawaii Administrative Rules, outlines those factors agencies must consider when determining whether an Action has significant effects: The proposed project will not involve an irrevocable commitment or loss or destruction of any natura' or cultural resources. No valuable natural or cultural resources would be involved, committed or lost. 2. The proposed project will not curtail the range of beneficial uses of the environment. No restriction of beneficial uses would occur. 3. The proposed project will not conflict with the State's long-term environmental policies. The State's long-term environmental policies are set forth in Chapter 344, HRS. The broad goals of this policy are to conserve natural resources and enhance the quality of life. The project is minor and basically environmentally and fulfills aspects of these policies calling for an improved social environment. It is thus consistent with all elements of the State's long-term environmental policies. 4. The proposed project will not substantially affect the economic or social welfare of the community or State. The project will not have any substantial adverse effect on the economic or social welfare of the South Kohala community or the State. 5. The proposed project does not substantially affect public health in any detrimental way. The project will not affect public health and safety in any way. 20 Department of Education/Parker Ranch Land Exchange Environmental Assessment 6. The proposed prgject will not involve substantialsecondary impacts, such as population changes or effects on public. fac•ililies. No secondary effects are expected to result from the proposed action, which would simply provide a space for already existing school students. 7. The proposed project will not involve u .s•ubsiantiul degradation vf'environmenial quality. The project is minor and environmentally benign, and it would thus not contribute to environmental degradation. 8. The proposed project will not substantially uffecl any rare, threatened or endangered species of flora or fauna or hubilat. The site supports overwhelmingly alien vegetation. No rare, threatened or endangered species of flora or fauna are known to exist on the - project site, and none would be affected by the proposed action. 9. The proposed project is not one which is individually limited but cumulatively may have considerable effect upon the environment or involves u commitment fur larger actions. The project is not related to other activities in the region in such a way as to produce adverse cumulative effects or involve a commitment for larger actions. Planning for the Waimea Town Center, a proposed development adjacent to the school, has taken joint impacts such as drainage, traffic, noise and other aspects into account in the design and location of planned facilities. 10. The proposed project will not detrimentally affect air or wider quality or ambient noise levels. No adverse effects on these resources would occur. 11. The projecl does not affect nor would it likely to he damaged as u resint gf being located in environmentally sensitive area such as u./lood plain, tsunami zone, erosion -prone area, geologically hazardous land, estuary, , fresh water, or eouslal area. Although the exchange area is located in an area exposed to some hazard from earthquakes, the project presents no additional hazard to the public and is not imprudent for the landowner. A former floodplain associated with Lanimaumau Stream has been removed through re- routing of the intermittent drainage that formerly passed through the area. 12. The project will not substantially affect scenic vistas and viewplunes identified in county or slate plans or studies. No County or State plan, including the Hawaii County General Plan, identifies important views in this area. The project will not impair views of Mauna Kea. 13. The projecl will not require substantial energy consumption. Although the proposed action will require no energy, construction of the school will involve energy consumption. No adverse effects would be expected. For the reasons above, the proposed Action will not have any significant effect in the context of Chapter 343, Hawaii Revised Statues and section 11-200-12 of the State Administrative Rules, 21 Department of Educulion/Purker Ranch Lund Exchange Environmental Assessment REFERENCES Baker, H.L. 1976.

The South Kohala Traffic Safety Committee has been meeting for over (30) years continuously to review traffic safety/impact issues in the South Kohala District. We have worked with Parker Ranch for many years to help develop better and safer road circulation in the Waimea area. We strongly support the land exchange as it will greatly improve the traffic situation surrounding Waimea Elementary and Intermediate Schools, as well as traffic circulation for the Community in general. Thanks for soliciting our input and we would like to receive a copy of the EA when completed. Very truly yours, •� q 1�1_� John B.

However, establishing an unambiguous time frame for the origin of these features has proven to be difficult. Several studies, including the present one, have attempted to date 'auwai features directly, with indifferent success. As can be seen in Tables 21 and 22, temporal data on upper Waimea Plain irrigation features are ambiguous. Accepted at face value, radiocarbon aged 'auwai deposits (Table 21) appear to indicate prehistoric origin for the features. Indeed, the sediment sample from Site 16095, returned a very early date which, uncritically accepted, would lead to the belief that irrigation was practiced on the Waimea Plain essentially coincident with the earliest occupation of the islands; this even though the ditch is a fairly minor feature connecting two historically documented 'auwai (Lanimaumau to Lyons'). Other radiocarbon dates fall into a more reasonable prehistoric time frame but still suffer from uncertainties inherent in relating a water -bearing feature to a bum event(s). In two cases (Sites 8808 Trench 45, and 16095 Trench 26), the most probable sources of the dated charcoal are prehistoric deposits a short distance upslope. Unnumbered 'auwai "G" is stratigraphically associated with bottle glass and appears functionally linked to the historical bullock pen. Clark's BHT 'auwai exposure is stratigraphically superior, and hence younger, than the ridge and field to which it ostensibly supplied water. Because carbon and sediment deposits in irrigation features are transported and redeposited from elsewhere, radiocarbon estimates based on them must be considered inherently unreliable. At best, they establish a oldest possible age, but the temporal relationship between the samples and use of the features themselves is nearly impossible to know accurately. Stratigraphic evidence from the WTC project also casts doubt on the notion that irrigation channels on the upper Waimea Plain were part of an integrated, contemporaneous irrigation system resulting from expansion in scope and complexity of a field system over a period of centuries. Tephra-rich sediments in the project area are excessively well drained and highly erodable. While erosive action is evident in examined 'auwai, none of the ditches display evidence of reconstruction or maintenance that would have been required if used over a long period of time. All examined ditches exhibited sidewalls that had been eroded during a rapid infilling process in which a single alluvial episode (i.e., one erosional/depositional event). Profile exposures indicate that most ditches filled with sediment during their first period of use and subsequently carried a much reduced, and continually decreasing, volume of water. if these 'auwal had provided supplemental irrigation as previously argued, the limited deposits within them signify, at most, only a few seasons of use before abandonment. This conclusion regarding a short period of use was also reached by other researchers in the Waimea region (see S. Clark et al. 1990:41; Reeve 1983:190). Given abundant historical documentation for development of the irrigation network on the upper Waimea Plain, presence of historical debris and other indicators of post -field ridge development shown in Table 22 is easy to understand. Accordingly, the upper Waimea Plain irrigation features are not believed to be related to pre -contact agriculture, but rather an historic period phenomenon linked to development of local and international trade networks in the 1800 and 1900s. Marginal climatic conditions for taro production; poor irrigation qualities of Waimea Plain sediments; and presence of non -irrigated agricultural alternatives (e.g., sweet potato) may have substantially diminished the probability of irrigated agricultural practices during the prehistoric period in all but the most limited sense. Availability of steel tools, wider variety of cold -tolerant crops, growing market demand, and documented presence of the irrigation network during the 1800s combine to suggest that the upper Waimea Plain irrigation network dates to the historic period with little or no greater temporal depth. A Proposed Historical Sequence for Development of the Waimea Irrigation System There are two major 'auwai within the project area that once directed water into lesser irrigation channels on the Waimea Plain. The older of the two is referred to in this report as Lanimaumau Ditch. The second major ditch is Lyon's `Auwai. These ditches are a portion of the 'auwai remnants mapped by Wright (1914a) and Wall (1915) and documented by Clark (1987). They are still visible on the surface of the project area. The present archaeological configuration of irrigation channels landscape may be the result of approximately five construction and/or reuse events taking place between ca. 1792 and 1947. On each occasion, relatively rapid abandonment of irrigation ditch systems followed due to the inherent difficulties of maintaining the systems on the Waimea Plain The oldest irrigation system appears to have been in place prior to 1818; the year in which a major boundary wall was constructed across it central ditch downslope west of the WTC project area (BCR 1865:7, 9, 10; see Reeve 1983:235-237). This system was part of a substantial undertaking that involved extending a ditch approximately 8 km (5 miles) from its source at Pu`u Holoholoku to Lihue, and from Lanimaumau within the WTC project area (see Kaelemakule 1866). Irrigation of traditional Hawaiian dry -land crops represents a large expenditure of human labor generated by a punctuated need to intensify and/or expand production. The downslope location, apparent short use period, and abandonment prior to 1818, is consistent with Kamehameha's undertakings at Kawaihae as proposed by Barr&e (1983:27; also see Clark 1987:548). Barre proposed two periods of expanded production (1791-92 and 1794- 95) based on Kamehameha's presence at Kawaihae. Construction of the system is assumed to have begun immediately prior to the need, and production continued corresponding to the presence of workers at Kawaihae until about 1802. The system was abandoned sometime prior to 1818 and there was no irrigation system evident to observers in 1828 who were interested in documenting such infrastructure. The second irrigation construction event was related to commercial production of sugar, which commenced in 1835 under the impetus of Kuakini. Associated with this commercial agriculture were ditches for irrigation and power for sugar mill's rollers. It is likely that Kuakini decreed restoration of the Lanimaumau Ditch as a main irrigation source and promoted construction of additional new ditches to supplement the original ditch system. Akona's `Auwai, which leads to the mill and bears the name of one of the mill's first owners, was most likely constructed at this time. Stratigraphic evidence indicates a short period of use for these second system ditches. Branches of the Lanimaumau Ditch that had extended into the kuleana lots at Pukalani (Site 8812) were abandoned prior to 1847 when enclosing walls blocked these water courses. Circumstantial documentary evidence suggests that political struggles over the management of land in 1850 required construction of a third irrigation network centering on Lyon's `Auwai. This ditch was constructed in approximately 1850 as a new primary source bypassing the Lanimaumau source. Lyon's `Auwai was constructed along the Waikoloa/Pu`u Kapu boundary, thereby avoiding land under control of the opposing political faction. As detailed previously, evidence suggests that the Lyon's system was abandoned prior to 1862. Definitive evidence indicates that most of this system had ceased to cant' water by 1867. The fourth system again focused on Lanimaumau Ditch. It transported water through Site 8812, bisecting the WTC project area.. In the early 1900s, ponds were constructed at each end of the project area, presumably to maintain a supply of water for livestock. Cultivation of corn and hay was also attempted in the project area around this time, which may have used water from Lanimaumau Ditch for irrigation. Unfortunately, twentieth century maintenance of Lanimaumau Ditch using heavy equipment obliterated archaeological deposits associated with original construction of this main source ditch. The enlarged ditch continued to convey water until the mid-1950s. In 1946-1947, new main source ditches were constructed for irrigation of the Lihue/Lalamilo Farm Lots constituting the fifth irrigation episode on the upper Waimea Plain. Evidence from Trenches 54, 64, and 80 during the WTC data recovery project indicates that this modern ditch irrigation network also was abandoned after a short period of use. In sum, the preponderance of evidence supports development of irrigated agriculture on the Waimea Plain in a series of stages possibly beginning with Kamehameha's presence at Kawaihae in the 1790s. These ditches, however, do not appear to have functioned as a part of a prehistoric agricultural system associated with upper Waimea Plain field ridges. It is important to note however, that absence of pre -contact irrigation does not mean there was not dryland agriculture and residence on the Waimea Plain during the prehistoric past. These issues are discussed further below. Jun -14-01 09:33A IARII Honolulu 808 943-0716 P.01 STATE OF HAWAII + , .ole+ •' OILARMT e. COLOAAA-AOARAN, CNAlRrVtfON 60"MNN J.

Sincerely, iEVIEVE SALMONSON N rector Enclosures State of Hawaii OFFICE OF ENVIRONMENTAL QUALITY CONTROL Guidelines for Assessing Cultural Impacts Adopted by the Environmental Council, State of Hawaii November 19, 1997 I. INTRODUCTION It is the policy of the State of Hawaii under Chapter 343, HRS, to alert decision makers, through the environmental assessment process, about significant environmental effects which may result from the implementation of certain actions. An environmental assessment of cultural impacts gathers information about cultural practices and cultural features that may be affected by actions subject to Chapter 343, and promotes responsible decision making. Articles IX and XII of the State Constitution, other state laws, and the courts of the state require government agencies to promote and preserve cultural beliefs, practices, and resources of native Hawaiians and other ethnic groups. Chapter 343 also requires environmental assessment of cultural resources, in determining the significance of a proposed project. The Environmental Council encourages preparers of environmental assessments and environmental impact statements to analyze the impact of a proposed action on cultural practices and features associated with the project area. The Council provides the following methodology and content protocol as guidance for any assessment of a project that may significantly affect cultural resources. II. CULTURAL RAPACT ASSESSMENT METHODOLOGY Cultural impacts differ from other types of impacts assessed in environmental assessments or environmental impact statements. A cultural impact assessment includes information relating to the practices and beliefs of a particular cultural or ethnic group or groups. Such information may be obtained through scoping, community meetings, ethnographic interviews and oral histories. Information provided by knowledgeable informants, including traditional cultural practitioners, can be applied to the analysis of cultural impacts in conjunction with information concerning cultural practices and features obtained through consultation and from documentary research. In scoping the cultural portion of an environmental assessment, the geographical extent of the inquiry should, in most instances, be greater than the area over which the proposed action will take place. This is to ensure that cultural practices which may not occur within the boundaries of the project area, but which may nonetheless be affected, are included in the assessment. Thus, for example, a proposed action that may not physically alter gathering practices, but may affect access to gathering areas would be included in the assessment. An ahupua'a is usually the appropriate geographical unit to begin an assessment of cultural impacts of a proposed action, particularly if it includes all of the types of cultural practices associated with the project area. In some cases, cultural practices are likely to extend beyond the ahupua'a and the geographical extent of the study area should take into account those cultural practices. The historical period studied in a cultural impact assessment should commence with the initial presence in the area of the particular group whose cultural practices and features are being assessed. The types of cultural practices and beliefs subject to assessment may include subsistence, commercial, residential, agricultural, access -related, recreational, and religious and spiritual customs. The types of cultural resources subject to assessment may include traditional cultural properties or other types of historic sites, both man made and natural, including submerged cultural resources, which support such cultural practices and beliefs. If the subject area is in a developed urban setting, cultural impacts must still be assessed. Many incorrectly assume that the presence of urban infrastructure effectively precludes consideration of current cultural factors. For example, persons are known to gather kauna"oa, "ilima, "uhaloa, noni or ki on the grassy slopes and ramps of the H-1 freeway and some state highways on the neighbor islands. Certain landmarks and physical features are used by Hawaiian navigators for sailing, and the lines of sight from landmarks to the coast by fisherman.to locate certain fishing spots. Blocking these features by the construction of buildings or tanks may constitute an adverse cultural impact. The Environmental Council recommends that preparers of assessments analyzing cultural impacts adopt the following protocol: (1) identify and consult with individuals and organizations with expertise concerning the types of cultural resources, practices and beliefs found within the broad geographical area, e.g., district or ahupua'a; (2) identify and consult with individuals and organizations with knowledge of the area potentially affected by the proposed action; (3) receive information from or conduct ethnographic interviews and oral histories with persons having knowledge of the potentially affected area; (4) conduct ethnographic, historical, anthropological, sociological, and other culturally related documentary research; (5) identify and describe the cultural resources, practices and beliefs located within the potentially affected area; and (6) assess the impact of the proposed action, alternatives to the proposed action, and mitigation measures, on the cultural resources, practices and beliefs identified. Interviews and oral histories with knowledgeable individuals may be recorded, if consent is given, and field visits by preparers accompanied by informants are encouraged. Persons interviewed should be afforded an opportunity to review the record of the interview, and consent to publish the record should be obtained whenever possible. For example, the precise location of human burials are likely to be withheld from a cultural impact assessment, but it is important that the document identify the impact a project would have on the burials. At times an informant may provide information only on the condition that it remain in confidence. The wishes of the informant should be respected. Primary source materials reviewed and analyzed may include, as appropriate: Mahele, land court, census and tax records, including testimonies; vital statistics records; family histories and genealogies; previously published or recorded ethnographic interviews and oral histories; community studies, old maps and photographs; and other archival documents, including correspondence, newspaper or almanac articles, and visitor journals. Secondary source materials such as historical, sociological, and anthropological texts, manuscripts, and similar materials, published and unpublished, should also be consulted. Other materials which should be examined include prior land use proposals, decisions, and rulings which pertain to the study area. III. CULTURAL IMPACT ASSESSMENT CONTENTS In addition to the content requirements for environmental assessments and environmental impact statements, which are set out in HAR § § § § 11-200-10 and 16 through 18, the portion of the assessment concerning cultural impacts should address, but not necessarily be limited to, the following matters: 1. A discussion of the methods applied and results of consultation with individuals and organizations identified by the preparer as being familiar with cultural practices and features associated with the project area, including any constraints or limitations which might have affected the quality of the information obtained. 2. A description of methods adopted by the preparer to identify, locate, and select the persons interviewed, including a discussion of the level of effort undertaken. 3. Ethnographic and oral history interview procedures, including the circumstances under which the interviews were conducted, and any constraints or limitations which might have affected the quality of the information obtained. 4. Biographical information concerning the individuals and organizations consulted, their particular expertise, and their historical and genealogical relationship to the project area, as well as information concerning the persons submitting information or interviewed, their particular knowledge and cultural expertise, if any, and their historical and genealogical relationship to the project area. 5. A discussion concerning historical and cultural source materials consulted, the institutions and repositories searched, and the level of effort undertaken. This discussion should include, if appropriate, the particular perspective of the authors, any opposing views, and any other relevant constraints, limitations or biases. 6. A discussion concerning the cultural resources, practices and beliefs identified, and, for resources and practices, their location within the broad geographical area in which the proposed action is Iocated, as well as their direct or indirect significance or connection to the project site. 7. A discussion concerning the nature of the cultural practices and beliefs, and the significance of the cultural resources within the project area, affected directly or indirectly by the proposed project. 8. An explanation of confidential information that has been withheld from public disclosure in the assessment. 9. A discussion concerning any conflicting information in regard to identified cultural resources, practices and beliefs. 10. An analysis of the potential effect of any proposed physical alteration on cultural resources, practices or beliefs; the potential of the proposed action to isolate cultural resources, practices or beliefs from their setting; and the potential of the proposed action to introduce elements which may alter the setting in which cultural practices take place. 11. A bibliography of references, and attached records of interviews which were allowed to be disclosed. The inclusion of this information will help make environmental assessments and environmental impact statements complete and meet the requirements of Chapter 343, HRS.

Our response to your individual comments are as follows: 1. Cultural Impact Assessment. First of all, it is important to note that the exchange areas are occupied by a working cattle ranch and accessory roads, storage lots, fences, etc. The archaeological and historical work by IARII for this portion of Parker Ranch included a number of interviews with people who have lived and worked in Waimea. The interviews covered many aspects of traditional sites and uses. Gathering resources in this pasture area has never been identified as a cultural practice. In the case of ilima, for example, which is found in a generally stunted form scattered in the pastures, there is a large number of alternate sites in the lowlands with much higher quality plants. Because of the very poor state of or absence of most gathering resources, the use of the land for cattle ranching and accessory activities, and the proximity to far better resource areas, there do not appear to be any cultural resources or uses that would be of concern. 2. Cumulative Impacts. To our knowledge, the only project that has a potential to generate adverse impacts that might accumulate with those of the proposed action (a land exchange) or the impacts of building and operating a school on such land is the Waimea Town Center. This project is discussed on pp. 1-2 of the Draft EA; in addition, Appendix 4 is a map of this proposed development. The eventual use of this land as a school has been an integral consideration in planning efforts for Waimea Town Center. In order to avoid any conflicts in land use needs, Parker Ranch has planned to assist the DOE in obtaining the land it might require for school expansion; the proposed action is a result of this planning. The road system, land use types, drainage improvements, historic site preservation, and other aspects of the Waimea Town Center have been designed to accommodate the expected school traffic, noise, and land use requirements.

REMARKS: The Land Board at its meeting of August 10, 2001, under agenda item D-8, approved in principle a land exchange between the State and Parker Ranch, subject to the completion of an appraisal of both properties and details of the exchange to be submitted to the Land Board for final approval. The Department of Education (DOE) plans to expand the Waimea Elementary and Intermediate School site (25.796 acres) by acquiring approximately 4.988 acres from Parker Ranch. This would allow the creation of separate campuses for the Elementary and Intermediate Schools. Parker Ranch is willing to convey the approximately 4.988 acres for the State's approximately _780 acres to improve the design of the proposed extension of Lindsey Road. No public road exists near the subject properties. Lindsey Road Extension will be built by Parker Ranch and dedicated to the County of Hawaii. This will provide an alternate route around the center of Waimea. As of June 27, 2000, the parties entered into a Waimea Development Agreement. For the land exchange, Parker Ranch agrees to: provide a title report; process the subdivision and reconsolidation through the County of Hawaii, Planning Department; develop easement documents, maps, and stakeout the new boundaries on the subject properties; develop maps and descriptions; and conduct a Phase 1 level hazardous material study on the Waimea School Expansion area. Parker Ranch's consultant completed an Environmental Assessment which disclosed I BLNR - Land Exchange with Page 4 Parker Ranch the proposed land exchange on December 8, 2001. The State property is encumbered by Governor's Executive Order No. 3454 and is part of the larger school grounds. There are no structures or improvements built on the .780 acres. The Parker Ranch property of 4.988 acres includes paddocks which are used for livestock grazing and an on -grade sewer line which transmits sewage from Parker Ranch's commercial development to their sewage treatment plant. The DOE and Parker Ranch have agreed to the following: I. Parker Ranch will retain the sewer line on the DOE's site at no additional cost until such time the DOE submits a letter, at 3 months in advance, requesting Park Ranch to vacate the site. 2. Subject to execution of a Right -of -Entry agreement between the DOE and Parker Ranch: a. Parker Ranch is authorized to enter the DOE's land and relocate the sewer line at Parker Ranch's cost before the DOE starts the redevelopment of their site. b. Parker Ranch is authorized to enter the DOE's land to repair and maintain the sewer line and to cleanup any spills at no additional cost to DOE. C. Parker Ranch is authorized, at their option, to enter DOE's lands for grazing, to minimize overgrowth of grasses and fire hazards, at no additional cost to DOE. d. Parker Ranch is authorized, at their option, to enter the DOE's land to repair and maintain, as required, the cattle fencing at no additional cost to DOE. The public purpose of the exchange is to have lands for the future expansion of the Waimea Elementary and Intermediate School site_ The 4.988 acres will be set aside to the DOE for addition to Waimea Elementary School. DOE plans to create two separate campuses - Elementary and Intermediate, separated by an access road. The Department contracted the services of George Hao & Associates to determine the fair market values of the public and private lands. The respective values as determined by the independent appraisal, approved by the Chairperson and accepted by Parker Ranch on March 12, 2003, are as follows: BLNR - Land Exchange with Page 5 Parker Ranch State -Owned Property: Tax Map Key Land Area Appraised Value 6-7-2:portion 15 .780 acres $71,700 Privately -Owned Property: Tax Map Key Land Area Appraised Value 6-7-2:portion 17 4.988 acres $366,400 Parker Ranch acknowledges that the land exchange will provide benefit to its Waimea Town Center (WTC) development project by: 1) allowing for the realignment of Lindsey Road in keeping with the preferred development pattern; 2) allow improved access and utility service through by allowing Parker Ranch to construct sewer and access improvements within the "Divider Road" through DOE lands; and 3) satisfying Condition F of Ordinance No. 96-117 which required that Parker Ranch work with the -DOE and the County Planning Department to provide its pro rata share for school facilities for its WTC project. Parker Ranch recognizes that the land exchange and subsequent expansion of the school site will benefit the overall Waimea community by providing increased opportunities for reconstruction/development of much needed educational facilities in the community. For these reasons Parker Ranch is agreeing to the exchange despite the significant difference in land values. Applicants have not had a lease, permit, easement or other disposition of State lands terminated within the last five years due to non-compliance with such terms and conditions. No agency or community comments were solicited for comments. There are no pertinent issues or concerns. RECOMMENDATION: That the Board: 1. Declare that, after considering the potential effects of the proposed disposition as provided by Chapter 343, HRS, and Chapter 11-200, HAR, this project will probably have minimal or no significant effect on the environment and is therefore exempt from the preparation of an environmental assessment. 2. Authorize final approval of the above-described land exchange between the State of Hawaii and Parker Ranch under the terms and conditions cited above which are by this reference incorporated herein and subject further to the following: A. The standard terms and conditions of the most current exchange deed form, as may be amended from time to time; BLNR - Land Exchange with Page 6 Parker Ranch B. Review and approval by the Department of the Attorney General; and C. Authorize the Chairperson to prescribe other terms and conditions as may be necessary to carry out the intent of the Board and to best serve the interests of the State. 3. Approve of and recommend to the Governor issuance of an executive order withdrawing .780 acres from the Governor's Executive Order No. 3454 and 4. Approve of and recommend to the Governor the issuance of an executive order setting aside the subject lands to the Department of Education under the terms and conditions cited above, which are by this reference incorporated herein and subject further to the following: A. The standard terms and conditions of the most current executive order form, as may be amended from time to time; B. Disapproval by the Legislature by two-thirds vote of either the House of Representatives or the Senate or by a majority vote by both in any regular or special session next following the date of the setting aside; C.

We authorize the rezoning of Parker Ranch -owned lands that is planned to serve as a DOE campus as well as the rezoning of lands now under DOE's control which will eventually belong to the Parker Ranch. More specifically, we support the rezoning from agricultural to residential for the 5.445 -acre parcel coming to DOE. We have no concern. with the Parker Ranch's rezoning from agricultural to commercial village for the 0.780 -acre parcel of state land expected to go to Parker Ranch. The DOE's preference is that all the land to be consolidated into one parcel for the DOE (approximately 29.275 acres) is zoned residential. The DOE appreciates your work on the rezoning and understands this is the next step in the agreed upon land exchange. If you have any questions, please call Heidi Meeker of the Facilities Dcvelopment Branch at (808) 377-8301.

VINCENTSHIMUN—I Dear Ms. Leithead Todd: Vice -President Shawn Saito, Parker Ranch, Inc. GRA,,ci'r'I:vtL�R.1KAvu,A1CP,LLCD'AP In August of 2008, Parker Ranch, Inc. submitted a Change of Zone application (REZ 08-00083) that would Principal facilitate a land exchange between Parker Ranch and DOE to: 1) allow eventual expansion of the Waimea Elementary/Middle school campus; and 2) accommodate the future planned extension of Lindsey Road to the w.. FRA\K BRANDT, FASLA Connector Road. The Change of Zone will allow for DOE to receive property with uniform zoning and will also Chairman Emeritus provide for uniform zoning on several odd shaped parcels created as a result of the land exchange. The Planning Department provided its review of the Change of Zone application in the attached letters dated ASSOCIATES April 23, 2009 and August 5, 2009. Your April 23, 2009 letter requested that a TZAR be submitted with the Change of Zone application to comply with Section 25-2-46 (d), Hawaii County Code (HCC). Your August 5, 5eniorAssocl .,AICD Senior Associate 2009 letter stated that if the Planning Department does not receive the requested information b September 4 g p q y P , 2009, the application would be withdrawn due to incompleteness. RAY:'MOND T. HIGA, ASLA SeniorAssociate In our response letter dated September 4, 2009, we informed you that we were proceeding with a TIAR and KEVIN K. NISHIKXX'A,ASLA asked that you keep the existing application pending until the TIAR is complete. Since then, we have engaged associate the services of AECOM to prepare a TIAR to determine the differences in traffic operations between the proposed rezoning and the current zoning. The TIAR, Traffic Impact Analysis Report for Proposed Waimea Kln-IIMIKAhuYUE ,LEFD'AP Town Center Zoning Adjustments, is attached and presents data and information in compliance with Section 25- 4ssociate 2-46 (d), HCC. WCrr ' ALIKA ABRIGO, LEED'AP associate The TIAR analyzed traffic conditions at the Mamalahoa Highway/Lindsey Road and Connector Road/Lindsey Road intersections relative to the current zoning for three forecast years: 2015, 2020, and 2030. The TIAR 4ssolate KAht4ASLA I EFD"AP dssociate concluded that future traffic conditions at the two stud intersections would have negligible differences relative Y � to the current zoning. Traffic circulation patteins and conditions could change in the future as planned/proposed 3ACHE-NGDONG.LF.ED"ar roadway improvements in the Waimea area are implemented over the next twenty years. Therefore, the TIAR associate recommends continuing to monitor traffic conditions in context of when roadways are actually built and when specific developments (such as a new school) may actually occur. In closing, the attached report is being sent to you for review and is consistent with the requirements of Section 25-2-46, HCC, which requires a TIAR for any Change of Zone application where the change of zone has toNOLULU OFFICE potential to generate 50 or more peak hour trips.

Based on the Department of Education's (DOE) maximum school population standards, the elementary school could increase by 136 students/staff and the middle school could increase by 591 students/staff. This increase in student/staff population has the potential to generate about 370 a.m. peak hour trips. In addition, the 2.0+1- acres of land proposed for rezoning to CV -7.5 on the east side of the Lindsey Road realignment has the potential to generate over 50 peak hour trips. In the Zoning Code under Section 25-2-46 (d)(1) (Concurrency Requirements), it states "A traffic impact analysis report (TIAR) prepared or updated within six months before the submission of the application, shall be included with the application for any change of zone that can generate fifty or more peak hour trips. The determination of peak hour trips shall be based on the Institute of Transportation Engineers, `Trip Generation Handbook', Hawal 'i County is an Equal Opportunity Provider and Employer or any other nationally recognized source. When the number of trips depends upon the exact future uses of the site, and those are unknown at the time of rezoning (for example, the types of commercial uses), the detennination shall be based upon a typical mix of uses found in that zoning type in the community." We understand that Parker Ranch has no plans to develop the proposed CV -7.5 lands in the near future and that the DOE has no plans to expand the school prior to 2419. However, the Zoning Code requires a TIAR be submitted with the subject change of zone application. The TIAR should include an analysis of traffic generated by the school and the proposed CV -7.5 zoned areas. A professional engineer should be able to tell you what the most appropriate trip generation rates are for the colnlnercial zoned lands, since no specific uses are proposed at this time. We will continue to hold the application and defer action until the DWS has detennined water can be made available to the subject properties and a TIAR is submitted for the proposed rezoned areas.

The Committee is concerned that this change of zoning is the last opportunity to stipulate timely building of the Lindsey Road Extension from Mamalahoa Highway to intersect with the Parker Ranch Connector Road. It is our understanding that when there is a request for a substantial change in a rezoning permit, the request opens the door to review other related provisions of the rezoning ordinance. A spokesperson for Parker Ranch has informed me that the building of the Lindsey Road Extension will be "triggered" by development of the commercial lots per Change of Zone Ordinance No. 02-25. "Under the Change of Zone Ordinance No. 02-25 the improvements to Lindsey Road from Mamalahoa (Hwy) to the (Parker Ranch) Connector shall be installed concurrently with commercial development of immediately surrounding commercially zoned lands. Presently, Parker Ranch does not have any plans to proceed with commercial development." Your records show that there has already been some development at the westerly end of this road extension. It is not clear what the boundaries of "immediately surrounding commercially zoned lands" means in regards to "triggers" to build the Lindsey Road Extension. The South Kohala Traffic Safety Committee concern is not with the developments by Parker Ranch or the adjacent school developments of Department of Education, but timely building of the Lindsey Road Extension. This roadway is an integral part of the First Phase of the Waimea Traffic Circulation Study Plan recommended by Parson Brinckerhoff Americas September, 2007. Starting on page 39 of this document the steps to relieve traffic congestion in Waimea are listed: Page I of 3 I. Selected Widening of Mamalahoa Highway (EA in progress, funding?) 2. Parker Ranch Connector (ground breaking May 1, 2009 (after litigation by the public) -completion by 2010) 3. Waimea School Access Improvements (partially completed or in progress — Lindsey Extension needed) 4. Prohibit East and West -bound Left -Turns at Lindsey/Mamalahoa Intersection (Lindsey Road Extension is essential). 5. Traffic Signal Optimization (completed until projects above progress). This study was paid for from the $10M Bond to mitigate traffic congestion in Waimea town center. As you can determine from reading the Study and the above status, Lindsey Road Extension is needed now, not in the distant future. The Mayor, County Council, Planning Department and Department of Public Works are all aware of the history and need to mitigate traffic congestion in Waimea town center. Economically, most of the East West commuter traffic, commercial transportation and future Kawaihae Harbor traffic uses the existing roads going through Waimea town center. Quality of life and safety of the road users is impacted by long delays due to the Waimea town center "bottleneck". In 1992 the original rezoning of this Waimea Center property (340 acres of prime agricultural land to commercial and residential zoning) was approved. The community was promised that a connector road complex would be completed before any development, commercial or residential, occurred on the entire parcel. Then in 1996, Parker Ranch requested that the terms of the rezoning be changed to require this connector road complex be completed "concurrently" with surrounding development. The County approved that change. Now each segment (or portion of a segment) requires a legal determination of what amount of development where, constitutes the "trigger" of "concurrently with development" in the immediately surrounding areas. History of this issue indicates Parker Ranch could act in its own interest and sell off portions of this property or otherwise avoid triggering responsibility for completion of the connector road system (of which the Lindsey Road Extension is an important part). If that is the case, and Parker Ranch avoids building the Lindsey Road Extension the County must build the road at taxpayer expense. Therefore it seems that only with this request for revision of its rezoning ordinance, does the County have the opportunity to stipulate the timely construction of Lindsey Road Extension. The County also needs to determine if this rezoning application requires a traffic impact analysis report under Hawaii County Code Section 25-2- 46 (2007, Ord. No. 07-99 sec.2.). Under the spirit of the Concurrency Requirements the Lindsey Road Extension is required now, not in the future. Our Committee requests that building of Lindsey Road Extension by 2010 be made part of and a stipulated term of the Change of Zone Ordinance with the approval of Change of Zone Application (REZ 08-000083). Several options are available. Parker Ranch can be required to build the road by 2010. Parker Page 2 of 3 Ranch is already committed to building 2 phases of the connecting adjacent Parker Ranch Connector Road by 2010. The County can build the road by 2010 and have Parker Ranch reimburse the County the cost plus interest on the unpaid principle. An EA can be expedited and the County can request Federal Stimulus Money, just like the current effort to build the "Mid-level Road above the new State Ka'ahumanu, Highway project. The Planning Department probably knows of other options and can best determine how to build the road by 2010. Again completion of Lindsey Road in conjunction with Parker Ranch Connector Road is necessary to meet the Waimea Traffic Circulation Plan 1St Phase recommendations. The authors of the study stated publicly several times all the parts of the plan (1St Phase) must occur together or the plan (1St Phase) fails to mitigate the traffic problem. Before Change of Zone Application (REZ 08-000083) is heard by the Planning Commission please provide details of the plan to timely build the Lindsey Road Extension at one of our future meetings (2"d Tuesday every month, 4:00 PM at the Waimea Civic Center Conference Room) or by mail. At the same time please explain what design requirements can be expected to accommodate pedestrians, bicyclists and other users of the Lindsey Road Extension.

The August 5, 2009 letter also includes two letters from the South Kohola Traffic Safety Committee. With this letter we respond to your requests, including responding to the concerns of the South Kohala Traffic Safety Committee (SKTSC). Regarding a determination from DWS, on March 5, 2009 we sent DWS a letter containing general water demand estimates that Department of Education (DOE) uses in planning new school facilities. On August 20, 2009 DWS provided a letter confirming that the applicant has provided the requested information and that DWS will determine water availability and required improvements when the DOE applies for a Land Use permit for the future expansion of the school (Attachment 1). We hope that you find this acceptable regarding the requested information necessary from DWS at this time. Regarding a TZAR, as we noted in previous communications, the requested Change in Zoning is primarily to facilitate a land exchange between Parker Ranch and DOE to allow eventual expansion of the Waimea Elementary/Middle school campus. DOE does not anticipate an expanded school to open any sooner than 2019, and most likely later. The Change in Zoning will provide for DOE to receive property with uniform zoning and will also provide for uniform zoning on several odd shaped parcels created as a result of the land exchange. It is anticipated that a consolidation and re -subdivision of the various parcels will occur within five years of the approval of the Change in Zone approval. If the Change in Zoning is not approved, the consolidation and re -subdivision could still occur, but this would create parcels with mixed zoning that could pose a problem in future years. Therefore we seek to complete the currently requested Change in Zoning to provide for uniform zoning. However, we understand the requirement of the Zoning Code under Section 25-2-46(d)(1) for a TIAR and are proceeding to have a TIAR prepared. We ask that you please keep the existing application pending until the completion of the TIAR. The TIAR will be provided as soon as it is completed. Regarding the letters from SKTSC, we note that their July 28, 2009 is primarily a restatement of their original request in their April 17, 2009 letter requesting expedited construction of Lindsey Road from Mamalahoa Highway to the intersection with the Connector Road which is currently under construction. The April 17, 2009 letter makes the original request for the expedited construction of Lindsey Road and further requests that the building of Lindsey Road by 2010 be PLANNING I.ANI)5C:tPF ARCIIlTLCTLiItF ENVIRC)`AIENTAI, STIIDIFS • ENTIT1.04tNTS % 11F.RMITTING • GRAPHIC DF.SIG) Ms. BJ Leithead Todd SUBJECT: Parker Ranch Change of Zone Application (REZ 08-000083) September 4, 2009 Page 2 of 4 made a condition of the approval of the pending Change of Zone Application (REZ 08-000083), which pertains to the land exchange between Parker Ranch and the DOE for the eventual expansion of the Waimea Elementary/Middle school campus. As stated above, DOE does not anticipate an expanded school to open any sooner than 2019, and most likely later. As stated in their April 17, 2009 letter, we note that: "The South Kohala Traffic Safety Committee concern is not with the developments by Parker Ranch or the adjacent school developments of Department of Education, but timely building of the Lindsey Road Extension." However, building of the Lindsey Road Extension is already a condition of Ordinance No. 02-25, which pertains primarily to the previously approved re -zoning of the Waimea Town Center area. Specifically Condition M(1)(d) of Ordinance No. 02-25 requires the extension of Lindsey Road from Mamalahoa Highway to the Connector Road "concurrently with any commercial development of the immediately surrounding commercial zoned area of the subject property" (i.e., the Waimea Town Center area). Since the building of the Lindsey Road Extension is already a condition of Ordinance No. 02-25, it would not be appropriate to impose this, or a similar condition, as a part of the current rezoning request (REZ 08-000083). It is further noted that the construction of the Connector Road from Mamalahoa Highway to Pukalani Road is currently underway and is scheduled for completion by May of 2010. This roadway segment will provide significant circulation and connectivity improvements within Waimea and will effectively act as a "mini bypass" until the competition of the State Bypass highway. The Connector Road will thereby provide an alternative access for Waimea Town while avoiding the Mamalahoa/Lindsey Road intersection. In summary, while we can appreciate the SKTSC desires for building of the Lindsey Road Extension, this is already a condition of Ordinance No. 02-25. Parker Ranch has agreed to this condition and will comply concurrently with commercial development of the Waimea Town Center parcels that are subject to Ordinance No. 02-25. Regarding the SKTSC's request for Lindsey Road design details to accommodate pedestrians, bicyclists, and other users, the Lindsey Road extension design has not been prepared at this time; however, the design will be consistent with the Waimea Town Center Plan (formerly known as Parker Ranch 2020) and with all County standards. In closing, I hope that this letter has addressed your concerns. I look forward to completing the Change in Zoning process in a timely manner. Please contact me if you have any questions or require additional information. Sincerely, PBR HAWAII T Tom Schnell, AICP Senior Associate cc: Brandi Beaudet, Parker Ranch, Inc.

This report documents a comparative analysis study that was conducted to identify the traffic impacts of the proposed rezoning. PROJECT DESCRIPTION Parker Ranch and the State of Hawaii Department of Education (DOE) have agreed to a I land exchange. Under this exchange, Parker Ranch will provide an approximate 4.988 acre portion of TMK 6-7-002: 017 to the State of Hawaii; in exchange, Parker Ranch will receive an approximate 0.78 acre portion of TMK 6-7-002: 015. The 4.988 acre portion of TMK 6-7-002: 017 to be obtained by the State of Hawaii is contiguous to the existing Waimea Elementary/Middle School campus. With the additional property, DOE's plans call for a new elementary school campus (approximately 12 acres) and the renovation of the existing Waimea Elementary/Waimea Middle School campus into a separate middle school campus (approximately 18 acres). The two campuses will be divided by the extension of Laikealoha Street. The land exchange will also facilitate the planned extension of Lindsey Road to the connector road by removing a curve from the existing road design. AECOM PAGE 1 Project No. 60181110.00300 December 2010 Proposed Waimea Town Center Zoning Adjustments TZAR PROPOSED WAIMEA TOWN CENTER ZONING ADJUSTMENTS TRAFFIC IMPACT ANALYSIS REPORT The requested Change of Zone for portions of several parcels serves to facilitate the development of separate Waimea Elementary School and Waimea Middle School campuses and improve the design of the Lindsey Road extension. At this time, no construction is planned on the parcels requested to be rezoned. The DOE does not anticipate any new school to open before 2019, and most likely later. Although the school lots currently and are proposed to have residential zoning for the purposes of this study, no new residential units will be built as a result of the rezoning. While DOE does not anticipate any new school to open in the immediate future and no new homes will be built as a result of the Change of Zoning, this traffic impact analysis report (TZAR) was prepared in conformance with Section 25-2-46 of the Hawaii County Code, which requires a TIAR for any Change of Zone application where the change of zone has the potential to generate 50 or more peak hour trips. The parcels to be rezoned are situated in the Waimea Town Center which is south of Mamalahoa Highway from west of Pukalani Road to the area near the race track. The Waimea Town Center Connector Road will run south of and parallel to Mamalahoa Highway, creating a new east -west travel route. It is adjacent to some of the parcels proposed to be rezoned. The current parcel zonings are provided by PBR Hawaii & Associates, Inc. and are shown on Figure 1. Lindsey Road and Kaomoloa Road will provide north -south access between Mamalahoa Highway and the connector road, as well as serve the adjoining land uses. There are plans to extend Lindsey Road south to eventually connect with the proposed Waimea Bypass Road. It is also proposed to realign the southbound approach of Lindsey Road at the connector road further west to provide a more direct route to the southern extension. The previously and currently proposed roadway alignments of Lindsey Road are also provided by PBR and shown on Figure 2. The proposed Lindsey Road alignment will cut across some property boundary lines and leave three small "orphan" sublots which are adjacent to a commercially zoned parcel (Waimea AECOM PAGE 2 Project No. 60181110.00300 December 2010 Proposed Waimea Town Center Zoning Adjustments TIAR PROPOSED WAIMEA TOWN CENTER ZONING ADJUSTMENTS TRAFFIC IMPACT ANALYSIS REPORT Town Center). The three sublots, identified as zoning lots 2, 5 and 6 on Figure 2, will create a 2.45± acre parcel identified as a portion of TMK (3) 6-7-008: 093. Parker Ranch is proposing to rezone these three sublots to CV -7.5 so that they can be incorporated into the larger commercial property which is already zoned CV -7.5. They have developed two alternate scenarios to downzone zoning lots 1, 3, 4 and 7 (identified on Figure 2) to balance the number of trips generated. Table 1 lists the developable area for each of the seven study sublots, its current zoning and allowable housing units, and for each scenario, the proposed rezoning as well as the allowable number of housing units/shopping center floor area. The proposed rezoning will create several large contiguous lots, each with their own similar zoning as shown on Figure 3 provided by PBR. A comparative analysis was conducted to determine the differences in traffic operations between the two proposed rezoning scenarios and the current zoning. This analysis could be considered theoretical in nature since it assumes that the school properties will have residential units in accordance with their current/proposed zoning. In reality, the housing would not be built. This assumption was made to comply with requirements of Section 25-2-46, Hawaii County Code. The study forecast years included 2015, 2020 and 2030, to comply with the five, ten and 20 -year forecasting requirement of Section 25-2-46, Hawaii County Code. The sublots affected by the two scenarios of rezoning changes are along Lindsey Road. This study assumed that only intersections at Mamalahoa Highway and the Waimea Town Center Connector Road will be significantly affected and would need to be analyzed. Hence, traffic forecasts were made at the Mamalahoa Highway and connector road intersections with Lindsey Road. It was initially assumed that Lindsey Road will not be extended to intersect with the connector road until 2030. AECOM PAGE 3 Project No. 60181110.00300 December 2010 Proposed Waimea Town Center Zoning Adjustments TIAR PROPOSED WAIMEA TOWN CENTER ZONING ADJUSTMENTS TRAFFIC IMPACT ANALYSIS REPORT PROPOSED ROADWAY IMPROVEMENTS Four new roadways are proposed to improve traffic circulation in Waimea: • Waimea Bypass • Kawaihae Bypass • Kawaihae-Mamalahoa Connector Road • Waimea Town Center Connector Road The State of Hawaii Department of Transportation (HDOT) is proposing the Waimea Bypass and Kawaihae Bypass Roads to allow through traffic to pass around Waimea town and improve traffic flow in town. The County of Hawaii Department of Public Works is proposing the Kawaihae-Mamalahoa Connector Road as an alternative to the Kawaihae-Lindsey-Mamalahoa route, which all vehicles traveling between Waimea and Kawaihae/North Kohala currently must use. Parker Ranch is building the Waimea Town Center Connector Road, which will be a two-way, two-lane collector roadway running parallel to and south of Mamalahoa Highway. If constructed, the Kawaihae-Mamalahoa Connector Road combined with the Waimea Town Center Connector Road would create a second urban route through Waimea; thereby, improving traffic operations in town. However, the County of Hawaii is not actively pursuing the Kawaihae-Mamalahoa Connector Road at this time due to community concerns. The FY 2008-2011 Statewide Transportation Improvement Program (STIP), (Approved Revision #14 effective August 11, 2010), lists the design of the Kawaihae Bypass Road ($2.7 million) in FY 2011, and the design of the Waimea Bypass Road ($1.7 million) in FY 2012. HDOT has recently indicated that the Waimea Bypass is on indefinite hold, also due to community concerns about the project. The Kawaihae Bypass Road is expected to proceed as planned. TRAFFIC FORECASTS The traffic forecasts from three previous studies for the Waimea area were not applicable to this study due to the optimistic land use development forecasts that had been assumed. Other information from these studies was used for the traffic forecasts AECOM PAGE 4 Project No. 60181110.00300 December 2010 Proposed Waimea Town Center Zoning Adjustments TIAR PROPOSED WAIMEA TOWN CENTER ZONING ADJUSTMENTS TRAFFIC IMPACT ANALYSIS REPORT developed in this study, as further described in this section. The Waimea Traffic Circulation Study by PB Americas, Inc. (2007), developed screenline peak hour forecasts for 2011 and regional level afternoon (PM) peak hour forecasts for 2030. The report assumed that the Kawaihae-Mamalahoa Connector Road and the Waimea Town Center Connector Road would be in place by 2011, and that the Waimea Bypass and Kawaihae Bypass Roads would be in place by 2030. The study identified over 1,500 household units that would be built and occupied from 2006 to 2011, resulting in large increases in traffic. However, less than 100 of these households have been built to date so the traffic forecasts are not realistic. Information on ambient traffic growth rates and diversion rates to the new roadways were utilized in this study. The Waimea Town Center Connector Road Traffic Assessment (2008), a letter report by The Traffic Management Consultant, developed 2020 PM peak hour traffic forecasts for the Waimea Town Center Connector Road as input for roadway design. The report assumed that the Kawaihae-Mamalahoa Connector Road and the Waimea Town Center Connector Road would be in place by 2020, but that they would not intersect directly across each other on Mamalahoa Highway. The traffic forecasts for the connector road assume the full build -out of the Waimea Town Center by 2020; however, this assumption is not considered appropriate at this time. The distribution of land uses were utilized for this study's project generated traffic forecasts. The Traffic Impact Analysis Report for the Waimea District/Regional Park, by PB Americas, Inc. (2010), developed 2018 and 2023 traffic forecasts for the western end of the Waimea Town Center Connector Road. The report assumed that only the Waimea Town Center Connector Road would be in place by 2018 since it would provide access to the park. All three remaining new roadways would be in place by 2023. The report did not elaborate on the development of background (ambient) traffic forecasts so it was not utilized for this study. All three studies analyzed only the PM peak hour due to its higher traffic volumes relative to the morning (AM) peak hour. AECOM PAGE 5 Project No. 60181110.00300 December 2010 Proposed Waimea Town Center Zoning Adjustments TIAR PROPOSED WAIMEA TOWN CENTER ZONING ADJUSTMENTS TRAFFIC IMPACT ANALYSIS REPORT A two step traffic forecasting methodology was utilized for this current study focusing on the currently proposed Change of Zoning adjustments. The first step forecast ambient traffic growth on Mamalahoa Highway and the Waimea Town Center Connector Road for 2015, 2020 and 2030. The second step forecast traffic generated by the Waimea Town Center for the current zoning and the two proposed rezoning scenarios for the three study years. The ambient and project generated traffic forecasts were combined to create the total with project forecasts. The Kawaihae-Mamalahoa Connector Road, Kawaihae Bypass Road and Waimea Bypass Road were initially not assumed in any of the forecasts. As with the previous three studies, only the PM peak hour was analyzed since the trip generation analysis showed much higher traffic volumes during that period relative to the AM peak hour. The ambient traffic forecast consisted of increasing current traffic volumes by a 2% annual growth rate and diverting traffic from Mamalahoa Highway to the Waimea Town Center Connector Road. Fifteen percent (15%) of the westbound (off-peak direction of travel) traffic on Mamalahoa Highway was diverted to the Waimea Town Center Connector Road for all three forecast years. For the eastbound (peak direction of travel) traffic, 15% of the 2015 and 2020 traffic and 30% of the 2030 traffic were diverted. The 2% annual growth rate for ambient traffic and diversion rates were utilized as in the Waimea Traffic Circulation Study. The second step was to forecast traffic generated by the Waimea Town Center for the three forecast years utilizing an estimate provided by Parker Ranch. The estimate was based on the current zoning, and it extends the full development of Waimea Town Center past 2030. The estimate was revised to show the effects of the two proposed rezoning scenarios and the results are summarized on Table 2. The Scenario 1 rezoning includes the most single family dwelling units in each forecast year, while the current zoning shows a slightly higher number of dwelling units than the Scenario 2 rezoning. The two proposed rezoning scenarios will not have multi -family AECOM PAGE 6 Project No. 60181110.00300 December 2010 Proposed Waimea Town Center Zoning Adjustments TIAR PROPOSED WAIMEA TOWN CENTER ZONING ADJUSTMENTS TRAFFIC IMPACT ANALYSIS REPORT dwelling units until the 2020-2030 period, and will have 53 less units than the current zoning. The rezoning of sublots 2, 5 and 6 to CV -7.5 was assumed to result in additional commercial building area to be developed after 2030 for the two proposed rezoning scenarios. The traditional three-step process of trip generation, trip distribution, and trip assignment was used to forecast the future traffic which will be generated by the additional units of the Waimea Town Center. The trip generation step forecasts the number of new trips that will be produced in each of the two study periods. The trip distribution step allocates these new trips by direction of travel. Finally, the trip assignment step assigns the trips to the specific turning movements at the study intersections. Table 3 summarizes the trip generation analyses for the current zoning and two proposed rezoning scenarios for the three study years. The trip generation step forecasts the volume of vehicle trips that will be generated by the rezoned parcels during the morning and afternoon peak hours. Both peak hours were calculated to show the disparity in the number of trips between the two peak hours. The Institute for Transportation Engineers' Trip Generation report has trip generation equations for single-family dwelling units (ITE LU 210), multi -family dwelling units (LU 230), and shopping centers (LU 820) to calculate the number of AM and PM peak hour trips generated. The report also shows the percentage of inbound and outbound trips in each peak hour. The trip generation equations and the percentage of inbound and outbound trips are shown on Table 3. The number of trips generated with the Scenario 1 rezoning changes is higher than the comparable current zoning. The number of trips generated by the Scenario 2 rezoning changes is less in the AM peak and slightly higher in the PM peak than the comparable current zoning. The number of trips generated in the PM peak hour is more than twice as high as the comparable AM peak hour trips for the 2020 and 2030 forecast years. For this reason, the subsequent analyses procedures were limited to the PM peak hour. AECOM PAGE 7 Project No. 60181110.00300 December 2010 Proposed Waimea Town Center Zoning Adjustments TIAR PROPOSED WAIMEA TOWN CENTER ZONING ADJUSTMENTS TRAFFIC IMPACT ANALYSIS REPORT The trip distribution and trip assignment procedures initially assumed that Lindsey Road would not be extended to intersect with the Waimea Town Center Connector Road until 2030. The PM peak hour traffic assignments for ambient traffic and Waimea Town Center generated traffic at the two study intersections were combined to form the total with project forecasts for the three zoning scenarios and three forecast years. The total with project traffic assignments for the current zoning and two rezoning scenarios are shown on Figure 4. The three columns of figures show the 2015, 2020 and 2030 traffic assignments, respectively. The three horizontal grouping shows the results for the current zoning, Scenario 1 rezoning and Scenario 2 rezoning, respectively. LEVEL OF SERVICE ANALYSIS The concept of level of service is used to quantify the quality of traffic flow on roadway facilities. The Transportation Research Board (TRB) has developed procedures to calculate level of service value(s) by measuring traffic volumes against the capacities of different types of roadway facilities. Their Highway Capacity Manual 2000 (HCM 2000) describes the various procedures developed for freeways, highways, signalized and unsignalized intersections, etc. The study intersection at Mamalahoa Highway and Lindsey Road is traffic signal controlled. The methodology for analyzing signalized intersections calculates the levels of service for individual movements, approaches, and the intersection as a whole based on the average stopped delay per vehicle. The results range from level of service A (best with average delays less than ten seconds) to F (worst with average delays longer than 80 seconds), as described in the following table. AECOM PAGE 8 Project No. 60181110.00300 December 2010 Proposed Waimea Town Center Zoning Adjustments TZAR PROPOSED WAIMEA TOWN CENTER ZONING ADJUSTMENTS TRAFFIC IMPACT ANALYSIS REPORT SIGNALIZED INTERSECTION LEVEL OFSERVICE LEVEL OF SERVICE CONTROL DELAY PER VEHICLE Seconds/Vehicle A < 10.0 B 10.1 to 20.0 C 20.1 to 35.0 D 35.1 to 55.0 E 55.1 to 80.0 F > 80.1 The County of Hawaii considers levels of service A to D as acceptable for signalized intersections, with levels of service E and F indicating the need for mitigating measures. For signalized intersections, the major streets can be designed to have a higher level of service than the side streets or turning lanes. The study intersection at the Waimea Town Center Connector Road is expected to be an unsignalized T -intersection with stop sign control on the Lindsey Road approach. The T -intersection will remain until Lindsey Road is extended south to connect with the Waimea Bypass Road. The procedure used for analyzing unsignalized intersections calculates vehicle delays and levels of service based on the distribution of gaps in traffic on the major street and driver judgment in selecting gaps through which to execute turns. For two-way stop intersections where only the minor street traffic is controlled by a stop sign, levels of service are calculated for the critical turning movements including outbound movements from the stop -controlled approach and left turns from the main road to the minor road. The procedure does not calculate an overall intersection level of service. The HCM 2000 defines the relationship between level of service and delay (in seconds/vehicle) for unsignalized intersections as shown in the following table. AECOM PAGE 9 Project No. 60181110.00300 December 2010 Proposed Waimea Town Center Zoning Adjustments TZAR PROPOSED WAIMEA TOWN CENTER ZONING ADJUSTMENTS TRAFFIC IMPACT ANALYSIS REPORT UNSIGNALIZED INTERSECTION LEVEL OF SERVICE LEVEL OF SERVICE DELAY (Seconds/Vehicle) A < 10.0 B 10.1 to 15.0 C 15.1 to 25.0 D 25.1 to 35.0 E 35.1 to 50.0 F > 50.1 Levels of service A to D are considered acceptable for unsignalized intersections. Level of service F (with average delays longer than 50 seconds) is considered Undesirable for unsignalized intersections and would indicate the possible need for mitigation. Table 4 summarizes the initial level of service analysis for the signalized intersection at Mamalahoa Highway and Lindsey Road. The table shows the traffic operation statistics of level of service (LOS) and delay (DEL) in columns for current zoning, Scenario 1 rezoning, and Scenario 2 rezoning; and in horizontal groupings for each of the three study years. The traffic operation statistics for signalized intersections were calculated with the Synchro 7 software program that simulates and optimizes traffic signal timings in a roadway network. The level of service calculation worksheets for the signalized intersection are included in Appendix A. The first horizontal grouping is for 2015, with no intersection of Lindsey Road/connector road. The levels of service/delays for the intersection, approaches and movements are similar for the current zoning and two proposed rezoning scenarios, for each forecast year. The similar values of levels of service/delay indicate no differences in traffic operations with the different zoning scenarios. The intersection level of service D for all three scenarios would indicate acceptable traffic conditions for all three alternatives. Several individual movements in 2015 are forecast to be at levels of service E and F, indicating the possible need for mitigating measures. However, it is common practice to AECOM PAGE 10 Project No. 60181110.00300 December 2010 Proposed Waimea Town Center Zoning Adjustments TIAR PROPOSED WAIMEA TOWN CENTER ZONING ADJUSTMENTS TRAFFIC IMPACT ANALYSIS REPORT allow levels of service E and F on minor movements to provide acceptable levels on the major movements. The second horizontal grouping is for 2020, with no intersection of Lindsey Road/connector road. Each of the three zoning scenarios is forecast to operate at level of service E, indicating undesirable traffic conditions. Also, many of the approaches and individual movements are operating at level of service E and F, indicating the possible need for mitigating measures. Although this is a theoretical study that analyzes land use forecasts that would not occur, the results indicate that short term mitigation measures may be needed by 2020. The Waimea Traffic Circulation Study recommended the elimination of left turns from both Mamalahoa Highway approaches at Lindsey Road to improve traffic operations at this intersection. The County of Hawaii imposed the condition that the elimination of left turns could occur only after Lindsey Road intersects the connector road. The 2020 and 2030 traffic assignment forecasts on Figure 4 were modified to account for the elimination of these left turns, which would also cause increases in turning movements at the Lindsey Road/connector road intersection. The modified traffic assignment forecasts are shown on Figure 5. The arrangement of the forecast templates are different from that shown on Figure 4. The three columns show the traffic assignments for the current zoning, Scenario 1 rezoning and Scenario 2, respectively. The first and second horizontal groupings show the traffic assignments for 2020 and 2030, respectively. The results of the level of service analyses for no left turns from Mamalahoa Highway are shown on Table 4. The third horizontal grouping is for 2020 and the fourth horizontal grouping is for 2030. The results for 2020 show that all three zoning scenarios would be operating at acceptable level of service D, with several approaches/movements operating at level of service E. This similarity indicates no differences in traffic operations with the different zoning scenarios and no need for further mitigation. AECOM PAGE 11 Project No. 60181110.00300 December 2010 Proposed Waimea Town Center Zoning Adjustments TIAR PROPOSED WAIMEA TOWN CENTER ZONING ADJUSTMENTS TRAFFIC IMPACT ANALYSIS REPORT The results for 2030 show that all three zoning scenarios would be operating at level of service F, which indicates that the scenarios will require additional mitigation. The proposed Kawaihae Bypass and Waimea Bypass Roads are assumed to be completed by 2030, although the latter is on indefinite hold. Both proposed roads were analyzed as mitigating measures. The previous traffic reports assumed that the Kawaihae and Waimea Bypass Roads would be implemented before 2030. In lieu of any recent traffic forecasts for these two proposed facilities, it was assumed that 15% of the westbound traffic and 28% of the eastbound traffic would be diverted to these new roadways. The Waimea Traffic Circulation Study estimated that both bypass roadways could divert from 400 to 1,100 vehicles during the PM peak hour from Mamalahoa Highway and Waimea Town Center Connector Road. Also, the Saddle Road Improvement project could also divert an unspecified number of east -west traffic that is currently traveling through Waimea town. Both projects could help improve traffic operations through Waimea town; however, the impacts of the Saddle Road Improvement project were not analyzed. Traffic volumes were reduced only on the left turn movement of the southbound approach of Lindsey Road and the right turn on the westbound approach of Mamalahoa Highway. It was also assumed that traffic volumes on the connector road would not be affected, and that Lindsey Road was not extended south from the connector road. The resultant 2030 traffic assignments are shown on Figure 6 for the current zoning and two proposed rezoning scenarios. The results of the 2030 level of service analysis for the, bypass roads are shown on the fifth horizontal grouping of Table 4. Each of the alternatives shows an intersection level of service E, which is not considered to be acceptable. Although this result indicates the need for additional mitigating measures, this study is a theoretical study that analyzes land use forecasts that would not occur. Further traffic forecasts are required when planning and design proceeds for the two proposed roadways. The above analysis indicates that mitigating measures will not be needed at the Mamalahoa Highway/Lindsey Road intersection in 2015 for the current zoning and two AECOM PAGE 12 Project No. 60181110.00300 December 2010 Proposed Waimea Town Center Zoning Adjustments TIAR PROPOSED WAIMEA TOWN CENTER ZONING ADJUSTMENTS TRAFFIC IMPACT ANALYSIS REPORT proposed rezoning scenarios. Removing the left turn movements from the Mamalahoa Highway approaches at Lindsey Road and extending Lindsey Road would serve as a mitigating measure to at least 2020 for the theoretical land uses. Additional mitigating measures, such as implementing the Kawaihae and Waimea Bypass Road, will be required for 2030 to attain level of service E for all three zoning scenarios. Further traffic forecasts are needed to determine the traffic impacts of these two proposed roadways. Table 5 summarizes the level of service analyses for the unsignalized Lindsey Road/ connector road intersection based on the traffic assignment forecasts from Figure 4 and Figure 5. The table shows the traffic operation statistics of level of service (LOS) and delay (DEL) for current zoning, Scenario 1 rezoning, and Scenario 2 rezoning for the latter two study years. The level of service results are not shown for 2015 and first 2020 alternative since Lindsey Road would not intersect the connector road. The 2030 with bypass road results are not shown since they would be the same as the 2030 with no left turns at Mamalahoa Highway results. The levels of service for unsignalized intersections were calculated by the Highway Capacity Analysis Program (HCAP). The level of service calculation worksheets for the unsignalized intersection analyses are included in Appendix B. The southbound approach of Lindsey Road is forecast to operate at level of service C in 4 2020 with Lindsey Road extended to the connector road and left turns eliminated from ! the Mamalahoa Highway approaches. By 2030, the approach is forecast to operate at level of service F, indicating the need for mitigation. Installing traffic signals is expected to be a feasible alternative by this future date. With traffic signals installed, the intersection is forecast to operate at level of service A as shown on Table 6. The analysis in Table 5 indicates that the Lindsey Road/connector road intersection could be stop sign controlled to at least 2020 when Lindsey Road would need to intersect with the connector road. Traffic signals could be required as a mitigating measure thereafter even with the Kawaihae and Waimea Bypass Roads implemented.

CONCLUSIONS A Change of Zone is being requested for portions of several parcels to facilitate the development of separate Waimea Elementary School and Waimea Middle School campuses and to improve the design of the proposed Lindsey Road extension. No construction is planned at this time on the parcels requested to be rezoned. There are no new residential lots proposed as a result of the rezoning. The DOE does not anticipate any new schools to open before 2019, and most likely later. A comparative analysis was conducted to determine the differences in traffic operations between the two proposed rezoning scenarios and the current zoning. This analysis could be considered theoretical in nature since it assumes that the school properties would have residential units in accordance with their current/proposed zoning which would not actually occur. Parker Ranch has developed two alternate scenarios to downzone several parcels to balance the number of trips generated by the additional commercial area. The traffic analysis found that the two proposed rezoning scenarios would have negligible differences on traffic volumes and operations at the Waimea Town Center Connector Road/Lindsey Road and Mamalahoa Highway/Lindsey Road intersections relative to the current zoning. Traffic operations at the two study intersections as measured by level of service and delay would be similar with the current zoning for the two proposed rezoning scenarios. Removing the left turn movements from the Mamalahoa Highway approaches at Lindsey Road would serve as a mitigating measure to about 2020. Additional mitigating measures, such as implementation of the Kawaihae and Waimea Bypass Roads and the Saddle Road Improvement project, will be needed to maintain acceptable traffic operations through Waimea Town to 2030. AECOM PAGE 14 Project No. 60181110.00300 December 2010 Proposed Waimea Town Center Zoning Adjustments TIAR PROPOSED WAIMEA TOWN CENTER ZONING ADJUSTMENTS TRAFFIC IMPACT ANALYSIS REPORT Traffic circulation patterns and conditions could change in the future as several roadway improvements being proposed in the Waimea area are implemented over the next twenty years. For this reason, it will be important to continue to monitor traffic conditions in the context of when roadways are actually built and when specific developments (such a new school) may actually occur.

Kohala TMK: 3/ 6-7-002:015 and por. 64; 6-7-008:093 We reviewed the subject application and our comments are as follows: It is understood that infrastructure development, including the extension of Lindsey Road and the construction of the Connector Road are required of the applicant under Ord. 02-25. In addition, the extension of Laikealoha Street, through proposed Easement U-1 and extension of Lindsey Road to County dedicable standards to the Connector Road should be required prior to issuance of any Certificate of Occupancy on the proposed RS 7.5 parcels. Direct vehicular access to the proposed RS 7.5 lots from Connector Road and Lindsey Road should be restricted. The proposed RS 7.5 lots should be required, unless otherwise approved by the Planning Director in consultation with DPW, to take vehicular access only from Laikealoha Street Extension. If required by DPW to determine necessary intersection or direct access improvements, a Traffic Impact Analysis Report (TZAR) shall be prepared by a licensed professional traffic engineer for review and approval by DPW. Recommended improvements shall be provided at no cost to the County. Should there be any questions concerning this matter, please feel free to contact Kiran Emler of our Kona Engineering Division office at 327-3530.

TORI SCHNFLL, AICP Senior Associate We understand the Department of Water Supply requests more detailed information RAYNIOND"i.HIGA,ASLA regarding water demand of the school expansion. In discussion with the Department of senior Associate Education (DOE), they have stated that their water calculations are done on a project -by - KEVIN K. NISHIK A.XfA, ASIA project basis by a consulting engineer hired at the time of each individual project. DOE ,Associate does not anticipate an expanded school to open any sooner than 2019, and most likely hull;vnKAAUYUF.N,LETDzAP later. As such, DOE has not initiated any plans regarding school design. Associate Sca•ITALIKAA13RIGO To provide some background information, currently Waimea Elementary and Waimea Associate Middle schools share a combined campus on the site, which is approximately 25 acres. SCOI-rp1URAKA\1I,ASIA, 1-I.ID+Ai, Waimea Elementary currently has a population of 714 students and staff and Waimea Associate Middle has a population of 534 students and staff. DACI u.NG DONG, I.F,EDAAP Associate Parker Ranch and the Department of Education (DOE) have agreed to a land exchange whereby Parker Ranch will provide an approximately 4,988 acre portion of TMK 6-7-2: 17 to the State of Hawaii and in exchange Parker Ranch will receive an approximately HONOLULU OFFICE 0.78 acre portion of TMK 6-7-2: 15. 1001 Bishop Street ASR !osier, Suite 650 Honolulu, H'awai'i 96813-3444 The 4.988 acre portion of TMK 6-7-2: 17 to be obtained by the State of Hawaii is x x 0(808 511-5631 1 contiguous to the exiting Waimea Elementary/Middle /Middle School campus. With the rax; tsc:f;f sz3-lallz g g rY p E -mall: sysadmin(a-lpbrlemcaii.crms additional property, DOE's plans call for a new elementary school campus (approximately 12 acres) and the renovation of the existing Waimea Elementary/Waimea .101 A p i Street Middle School campus into a separate middle school campus (approximately 18 acres). 101 Av uni Street Hilo Lai,00n Center, Suite 310 The two campuses would be divided by the extension of Laikealoha Street.

Pavao SUBJECT: Parker Ranch Change of Zone Application (REZ 08-000083) March 5, 2009 Page 2 of 2 Y 4,000 gallons per day per acre for irrigation ® A water system capacity of 2,000 gallons per minute for a two-hour duration for fire flow In addition, DOE specifications for new schools call for total maximum population (students and staff) of 850 persons for an elementary school, and 1,125 for a middle school. While the above are general DOE standards, it should be noted that the combined Waimea Elementary/Waimea Middle campus is already in operation and serving an existing population of students and staff as noted on the first page of this letter. As the result of the land exchange and the proposed campus renovations/expansion, the total campus area would increase approximately five acres from the current campus size. Based on DOE's maximum total population for elementary schools, the Waimea Elementary population could increase by 136 students/staff and the Waimea Middle population could increase by 591 students/staff. Water uses would be expected to increase correspondingly. Please see the attached spreadsheet for general estimated water demands. Considering that there may be need for increased school capacity in the area, it is feasible that school water demand would increase with greater school enrolment, regardless whether the rezoning was granted and the school expanded. Thus, while we understand your request for more detailed information regarding water demand of the school renovation/expansion, we hope this more general information and explanation will suffice until DOE initiates more detailed school design. We hope this letter addresses your concerns at this time. Please contact me if you have any questions or require additional information. Thank you for reviewing the Change of Zone Application.

The solid waste management plan will be used to: (1) encourage recycling and recycling programs, (2) predict the waste generated by the proposed development -to anticipate the loading on County transfer stations, landfills and recycling facilities, and (3) predict the additional traffic being generated because of waste and recycling transfers. REPORT The consultant's report will contain the following: 1. Description of the project and the potential waste it may be generating: i.e. analysis of anticipated waste volume and composition. This includes waste generated during the construction and operational phases. Greenwastes will be included in this report for both construction grubbing and future operational landscape maintenance. 2. Description and location of the possible sites for waste disposal or recycling. We will not allow the use of the County transfer stations for any commercial development; commercial development as defined under the policies of the Department of Environmental Management Solid Waste Division. 3. Since the Department of Environmental Management promotes recycling, indicate onsite source separation facilities by waste stream; i.e. source separation bins of glass, metal, plastic, cardboard, aluminum, etc. Provide ample and equal space for rubbish and recycling. 4. Identification of the proposed disposal site and transportation methods for the various components of the waste disposal and recycling system, including the number of truck traffic and the route that truck will be using to transport the waste and recycled materials. Solid Waste Management Plan Guidelines Page 2 of 2 5. The report will include any impacts to County waste and recycling facilities, and the appropriate mitigation measures. All recommendations and mitigation measures will be addressed. 6. Description of the waste reduction component that analyzes techniques to be employed to achieve a reduction goal. 7. Analysis will be based on the highest potential use or zoning of the development. REQUIREMENTS AND CONDITIONS 1. A solid waste management plan will be done for all commercial developments, as defined under the policies of the Department of Environmental Management, Solid Waste Division. 2. We will require the developer to provide or resolve all recommendations and mitigation measures as outlined in the report; besides any conditions placed on the applicant by the Department of Environmental Management. 3. A licensed environmental or civil engineer will draft and certify the solid waste management plan.

Thank you for the opportunity to comment on the aforementioned project, which we originally received on September 15, 2008 and replied to shortly thereafter (Log No. 2008.4181, Doc No. 0809MD63). The change of zone request involves changes pertaining to the Waimea Town Center, the Linsey Road extension and connector road, and the Waimea Elementary and Middle Public Charter Conversion Schools. We have since learned that two of the TMKs in question, 6-7-002:064 and 6-7-008:093 were until 2002 part of a then -larger 6-7-002:017 which has already gone through the historic preservation process. Regarding the Change of Zone Application, we determinethat no historic properties will be affected by this project. Looking toward the future, we may advise that archaeological monitoring and/or installation of orange construction fencing around the sites subject to permanent preservation may be required during construction of the roadway(s). In the event that historic resources, including human skeletal remains, cultural materials, lava tubes, and lava blisters/bubbles are identified during the construction activities, all work needs to cease in the immediate vicinity of the find, the find needs to be protected from additional disturbance, and the State Historic Preservation Division, Hawaii Island Section, needs to be contacted immediately at (808) 933- 7650.

Due to the potential for the affected land to generate more than 50 VPH in peak traffic, a traffic impact analysis report was required by the County. Mamalahoa Highway (route 19 and 190) within Waimea town vicinity are under the jurisdiction of the County of Hawaii. The zoning adjustments are not expected to impact State highway facilities.

Thank you for the opportunity for the Waimea Planning and Design Review Committee of the Waimea Community Association to review the Change of Zone Application for Parker Ranch. Members of our committee have the following comments and concerns. They may not all pertain to this particular Zoning Change Application: From Laura Dierenfield, Executive Director, PATH Peoples Advocacy for Trails Hawaii: The zoning changes seem to be what's needed for DOE and Parker Ranch. The actual configuration and accommodation of the roads themselves remains the more crucial issue to us. From Carly Shepard: We at HoloHolo Ku would like to know how far from our property line the road will be. What are they going to do about landscaping on the sides of the road. We would like for the developers to make berms on each side of the road so as to minimize the sound for those who have homes close to it. Parker Ranch originally designed it with pathways and bikeways. It was also going to be divided lanes. Are they going to put in circles for those who have to cross this road? From Jim Frazier: I see there was thought and agreement on reallocation of land for contiguous area for the school with this proposal. The connecting alignment makes good sense for traffic safety. My observation would be supportive of the proposal. From Josephine Tanimoto: Mahalo for the heads up. I'm just happy to see progress. A hui hou. Planning Dept. Exhibit 10 From Margaret Wiley: I think DOE should give a presentation to the community on this rezoning.... and not leave it to the private entity (Parker Ranch) to handle. I guess that will not happen until the forum of the County Council hearing? It is my understanding the land being transferred to the state/DOE in this exchange is land required to be given to the state/school anyway pursuant to Parker Ranch's rezoning of the Waimea center land. Instead the rezoning application makes it sound as if Parker Ranch is simply generously offering this parcel in exchange for a smaller parcel to be rezoned as commercial.? The map seems inaccurate and misleading, for example, the current location of the Lindsey Road extension is shown as former connector road location? Why is not the concurrency requirement for construction of the Lindsey Road being triggered at this time given this transfer for development? Are there plans to include sidewalks and bikeways "complete streets"? I do not see anything about that. I think the state should have been negotiating for the parcel next to the Post office (where school traffic now parks) as part of this deal? I was told there may be a question about whether the state can transfer any of this land to Parker Ranch because it is ceded land? Following the settlement of the Parker Ranch connector road, I encouraged Parker Ranch and the County (there represented by Amy Self - deputy Corp. Counsel) that we immediately work to resolve the issues surrounding the Lindsey Road extension, including this proposed land transfer... Nothing came of that suggestion. Included is a PDF attachment with some plans/sketches from the original Parker Ranch 2020 Plan which showed Lindsey as a curved tree lined street to discourage fast traffic. Are the roads to the south side of the "Connector Road" also going to be redesigned/ relocated to meet this new intersection and will this also require a zoning change?

Margaret Wiley I think DOE should give a presentation to the community on this rezoning... and not leave it to the private entity (Parker Ranch) to handle. I guess that will not happen until the forum of the County Council hearing? Response: The Planning Commission will hold a hearing on the requested Change of Zone. After the Planning Commission hearing, the County Council will also hold hearing to consider the re -zoning. Planning Commission and the County Council hearings are open to the public. We note that in addition to the current Change of Zone Application, an Environmental Assessment (EA) was prepared regarding the land exchange between Parker Ranch and the State of Hawaii Department of Education. The EA discussed the proposed land exchange, the realignment of Lindsey Road, and the proposed re -zoning. The EA was subject to a public comment period and included supportive letters from: the South Kohala Traffic Safety Committee and the Hawaii Leeward Planning Conference. The Police Department had no concerns. It is my understanding that the land being transferred to the state/DOE in this exchange is land required to be given to the state/school anyway pursuant to Parker Ranch's rezoning of the Waimea center land. Instead the rezoning application makes it sound as if Parker Ranch is simply generously offering this parcel in exchange for a smaller parcel to be rezoned as commercial? Response: It was not the intent of the Change of Zoning Application to make "...it sound as if Parker Ranch is simply generously offering this parcel in exchange for a smaller parcel to be rezoned as commercial?" The details of proposed land exchange has been publicly discussed and approved by the Department of Education and the State Board of Land and Natural Resources as part of a public process. Section 2.2 (Statement of Objectives) of the Application states the following: Waimea Community Association SUBJECT: Parker Ranch Change of Zone Application (REZ 08-000083) March 5, 2009 Page 3 of 4 Parker Ranch entered into a development agreement with the DOE (referred to as "Waimea Development Agreement") in 2003 to exchange ownership of its lands for State lands. The State lands were transferred to the DOE by Executive Order. Under the terms of the agreement, the proposed land exchange action would convey a 4.988 -acre portion of TMK: (3) 6-7-08:93 to the State of Hawaii, and the State of Hawai'i would convey a 0.78 acre portion of TMK: (3) 6-7-2:15 to Parker Ranch. This Change of Zone request helps facilitate the implementation of goals in the Waimea Development Agreement by: 1) allowing for future expansion of the Waimea School site into two separate campuses for Waimea Elementary School and Waimea Middle Public Charter Conversion School; and 2) improving the design of Lindsey Road by removing the curve from the existing design of the road and connecting to the planned Connector Road. The land exchange would also provide for an approximately 18 -acre middle school and an approximately 12 -acre elementary school -- consistent with torrent DOE guidelines for campus acreage. The proposed project would provide land directly adjacent to the existing school campus, encouraging orderly division of the school into separate Elementary and Middle school campuses, while minimizing infrastructure costs such as roads, water and utilities. The map seems inaccurate and misleading, for example, the current location of the Lindsey Road extension is shown as former connector road location? Response: We are not sure which map you are referring too as there are several in the Application, however to provide clarification attached are: 1) an aerial photo showing landmarks and proposed roadways in the area; 2) a series of three maps showing: a) existing zoning; b) proposed zoning changes; and c) proposed inial zoning. Why is not the concurrency requirement for construction of the Lindsey Road being triggered at this time given the transfer for development? Response: The requested rezoning will facilitate separate campuses for Waimea Elementary School and Waimea Middle School (both schools currently share one campus) and improve the design of the Lindsey Road extension. However, DOE does not anticipate any new school to open sooner than 2019, and most likely later. As such, DOE has not initiated any plans regarding school design or access. A Traffic Impact Analysis Report will be prepared by a licensed professional traffic engineer to determine intersection or direct access improvements as DOE proceeds with school design. Are there plans to include sidewalks and bikeivays "complete streets?" I do not see anything about that. Response: The design of the Lindsey Road extension has not been prepared at this time; however the design will be consistent with the Waimea Town Center Plan (formerly known as Parker Ranch 2020). I think the state should have been negotiating for the parcel next to the Post office (where school traffic now parks as part of the deal. Response: We acknowledge your comunent, however the land exchange between Parker Ranch Inc., and the State of Hawaii Department of Education has been previously negotiated and agreed to. I ivas told there may be a question about whether the state can transfer any of this land to Parker Ranch because it is ceded land? Waimea Community Association SUBJECT: Parker Ranch Change of Zone Application (REZ 08-000083) March 5, 2009 Page 4 of 4 Response: On August 10, 2003, the State Board of Land and Natural Resources approved in principle to the land exchange between Parker Ranch Inc., and the State of Hawaii Department of Education. Subsequently recent court rulings have questioned the ability of the State to exchange or sell state-owned land. The issue may be addressed in future court decisions or through legislation. The Change of Zone Application has been prepared with the authorization and support of the. State of Hawaii Department of Education under the current status of land ownership of the parcels subject to the rezoning. Following settlement of the Parker Ranch connector road, I encouraged Parker Ranch and the County (there represented by Arny Self — deputy Corp. Counsel.) that we innnediately work to resolve the issues surrounding the Lindsey Road extension, including this proposed land transfer... Nothing carne of that suggestion. Response: The land exchange and the proposed rezoning will facilitate the Lindsey Road extension and separate campuses for Waimea Elementary School and Waimea Middle School (both schools currently share one campus). Included is a PDF attachment with soine plans/sketches frons the original Parker Ranch 2020 Plan which showed Lindsey as a curved tree lined street to discourage fast traffic. Are the roads to the south side of the "Connector Road" also going to be redesigned/ relocated to meet this new intersection and will this also require a zoning change? Response: The extension of Lindsey Road south of the Connector Road has been routed to the west side of the archaeological preserve area. It is not anticipated that a Change in Zoning will be necessary for the extension of Lindsey Road south of the Connector Road. Thank you for reviewing the Change of Zone Application.

Related traffic mitigation measures would then be discussed and adopted as conditions of approval for the granting of any such a Use Permit. that construction of a new Educational Facility does not trigger Parker Ranch's obligation to build the Lindsey Road Extension; that responsibility will be the State's. Our Committee's favorable recommendation is based, in part, on the above conditions being factual. Should this not be the case, we would ask to revisit our recommendation. Our discussions did not include verifying DOE's authorization for this Applicant to apply to rezone DOE -owned lands, nor did we review any comments from the County Department of Water Supply regarding availability of sufficient water for the lands to be rezoned. The Waimea Community Association Planning and Design Committee understands that the construction of the Lindsey Road Extension is a key element in traffic improvement plans for Waimea and supports the community's desire to see that road built sooner rather than later. The Committee believes that this land swap and re -zoning will encourage development that will achieve that end. Further, the Committee supports the Ranch's efforts to move forward with the Parker Ranch 2020 Plan as revised and approved in 1996 and thanks the Ranch for conveying more than 4 acres of land to the Department of Education. Thank you again for requesting comments from our Association on any land use applications. Please advise when we can be of further assistance.

Previous documentation submitted verifies I am authorized to represent South Kohala Traffic Safety Committee as its Chairman. Thank you for the opportunity to provide written testimony on this application. South Kohala Traffic Safety Committee only received the Traffic Impact Analysis Report (TZAR) from Parker Ranch regarding this Application. With no information or notice from Hawaii County Planning Department we have identified this application above per best information available, the TZAR. At the regular meeting of the South Kohala Traffic Safety Committee February 8, 2011 members requested a letter be sent to you addressing their concerns with the above Change of Zone Application (REZ 08-000083). The South Kohala Traffic Safety Committee is opposed to this application unless adequate and timely completion of the Lindsey Road Extension is stipulated in the terms. The Committee is concerned that this change of zoning is the last opportunity to stipulate timely building of the Lindsey Road Extension from Mamalahoa Highway to intersect with the Parker Ranch Connector Road. It is our understanding that when there is a request for a substantial change in a rezoning permit, the request opens the door to review other related provisions of the Change of Zone Ordinance 02-25. For example, the changes made in 1996 at the request of Parker Ranch were reviewed and approved by Hawaii County. The attached April 17, 2009 letter to Hawaii County Planning Department addresses community concerns regarding Change of Zone Application (REZ 08- - - 000083) and request for a TZAR. I T` Page 1 of 4 Planning Dept, Exhibit 12, The South_Kohala Traffic Safety Committee concern is not with the future Proposed developments by Parker Ranch or the adiacent school developments of Department of Education, but timely building of the Lindsey Road Extension. This roadway is an integral part of the First Phase of the Waimea Traffic Circulation Study Plan recommended by Parson Brinckerhoff Americas September, 2007. Starting on page 39 of that document the steps to relieve traffic congestion in Waimea are listed: 1. Selected Widening of Mamalahoa Highway (EA in progress, funding?) 2. Parker Ranch Connector (completed and open to use) 3. Waimea School Access Improvements (completed, waiting on item 4) 4. Prohibit East and West -bound Left -Turns at Lindsey/Mamalahoa Intersection (Lindsey Road Extension is essential). 5. Traffic Signal Optimization (completed until projects above progress or conditions change). This Study was paid for from the $10M Bond to mitigate traffic congestion in Waimea town center. As you can determine from reading the Study and the above status, Lindsey Road Extension is the next crucial task and needed now, not in the distant future. Currently there are increased pedestrian vehicular conflicts around Waimea School, adjacent to Parker Center and the U.S. Post Office. School children and other pedestrians are at risk of injury due to the lack of a "complete street" with adequate sidewalks and crossings. The community, Parker Ranch, Parker Center and Hawaii County Department of Public Works are working on short term solutions to reduce the risk to pedestrians and improve traffic circulation and safety at Lindsey/Mamalahoa Highway Intersection. The Long term solution is to build the Lindsey Road extension. This short section of road was requested as integral part of the now completed Parker Ranch Connector in the April 17, 2009 letter attached. Our Committee requests completion of Lindsey Road Extension within the next 5 years as a stipulated amended term of the Change of Zone Ordinance with the approval of Change of Zone Application (REZ 08-000083). Several options are available and listed in the April 17, 2009 letter. This project has been avoided since 1996 exposing Waimea and its pedestrians to known traffic safety impacts due to population growth in the area.

Recommendation: I recommend the Design Review Committee advise the Planning Commission against allowing this rezoning with its proposed increase in commercially zoned areas --unless construction of the Lindsey Road is included as a mitigation measure that is part of a comprehensive development plan for the affected area. To implement what ever plan is deemed reasonable, the County might best enter into a development agreement with Parker Ranch setting forth in detail Parker Ranch's obligations regarding the infrastructure design and include a definitive time line for construction of this connector road taking in to account current and foreseeable uses of land in the area to be affected by this proposed rezoning. I make this recommendation based on Parker Ranch's rezoning application, the December 10, 2010 Traffic Impact Analysis Report prepared by AECOM consultants, and relevant laws including the South Kohala Community Development Plan County Ordinance #08-159. 1. Rezoning_Historv: In 1992 Parker Ranch obtained the original rezoning of its 340 acres of agricultural land to commercial and residential based on the commitment to construct the interior roads - in advance of occupancy of any residential or commercial lots. In 1996 (after the death of Richard Smart) Parker Ranch requested and obtained a revision of that condition with the stated objective to allow for concurrent development of the interior roads. The redrafted ordinance language to implement this revision is now read restrictively such that Parker Ranch argues it is not responsible to construct the Lindsey Road extension at this time. In the mid 1990's Parker Ranch also requested and obtained permission to delete the original mitigation requirement to construct a sidewalk along Mamalahoa Highway to Lindsey Road. Other of the original commitments were also deleted - such as the requirement to construct "low-income" multi -unit housing in the area adjacent to the school. Instead the County approved a rezoning to allow this area to be zoned for single family residences. [This area is shown on TIAR figure 1 as "RM - 5" located immediately adjacent to the DOE property]. These adjustments in the zoning conditions benefited Parker Ranch with no benefit offered in exchange to the Community. Other rezoning conditions that presumably should have been completed by now, have also not been completed - such as the equestrian trail. Planning Dept. Exhibit il.. 2. Area to be conveyed to DOE. Based on the documents submitted, it would appear that Parker Ranch is conveying land to DOE as part of this exchange and not as part of any other obligation to do so. That is not the case. My understanding is that as part of the LUC original rezoning, Parker Ranch's rezoning was conditioned upon a conveyance of land for the school. The area planned to be conveyed previously included the area adjacent to the DOE property bordered by the Connector Road corridor and the Lindsey Road extension corridor - and included the areas shown on TIAR Figure 2 as areas "2" (about 0.8 acres ) "5" (about 1.3 acres) , and "6"(about 1.6 acres) as well as the additional CV -7.5 running along the previous alignment of the Lindsey Road extension (about 1.8? acres). Hence by way of this rezoning, the area of land being conveyed to DOE is substantially reduced from that previously contemplated. According to members of the public who attended the community meetings held by Richard Smart/Parker Ranch (in late 1980's and early 1990's), the intent was to allow for a high school to be built in this area - which would be supplemented by additional park - recreation acreage along the Connector Road corridor. 3. Road Design. According to Richard Smart's 2020 plan the curve in Lindsey Road was an intentional design feature - that would contribute to the village "tree -lined" atmosphere of Waimea. Although it is not clearly shown on the TIAR Figure 1, the original alignment of this Lindsey Road extension would mean the further extension of this road beyond the Connector Road would pass to the east of the archeological park area (on TIAR figure 2, this archeological park area is the dark rectangular area located south of the Connector Road corridor and east of the area zoned RS -10). 4. Cumulative impacts. It is not apparent that the December 2010 TIAR has taken into consideration other cumulative impacts in this immediate area - such as the approved expansion of Parker School - that will add some 300 students and corresponding faculty and staff in this center area of Waimea. S. Vacant Lot by Post Office. Parker Ranch's vacant lot on Lindsey Road next to the school and the Post Office is vacant and currently provides additional parking for the school and the post office. That lot is zoned as commercial and, so I am told, Parker Ranch intends to sell this lot -- presumably once this rezoning is approved. In my opinion concurrently with this rezoning, the County should negotiate for the acquisition of that lot - for future use as a multi modal transit center -- perhaps in cooperation with the US post office. In other words, before adjustments to zoning in this area are approved, a more comprehensive look at traffic patterns should be considered - including public transportation and pedestrian traffic. Keep in mind that once a lot is conveyed - there is greater uncertainty as to how to force construction of infrastructure rezoning conditions. To fully appreciate this point, refer to the County's lawsuit against 1250 Oceansides et al Civ 10-1-0157K ("Hokulia") filed on April 29, 2010 and still in the phase of (a morass of) pretrial motions. That case concerns the developer's obligations to provide certain infrastructure, in light of conveyance by that developer of certain affected property interests, in the context of reneging on its infrastructure obligations. 6. Assumed Use of DOE Property. As stated in the TIAR, at page 1, the purpose of the study is to identify the (foreseeable) traffic impacts of the proposed rezoning. The factors that should be considered, and which are typically considered, are based on the proposed uses of the parcels in the area. Here the proposed use of the DOE property is for school use, (with high peak am and pm traffic), not as residential property - regardless of whether zoned Residential. Yet it appears that the TIAR is not taking into account the foreseeable increase in school traffic, and instead based its calculations on use of these properties for residential uses. 7. Assumed Future Road Infrastructure Improvements: At this point, any TIAR should not assume that any of the following road will be built in the foreseeable future - or ever: The Kawaihae Road - Mamalahoa Connector Road (the Lalamilo Connector), the State Waimea Bypass, and the State Kawaihae Bypass. The TIAR acknowledges that the State Waimea Bypass should not be considered. The State Kawaihae Bypass is referred to as being on track. However, it is my understanding that this road project is likely to be delayed indefinitely or for many years due, not only because of funding issues, but due to the magnitude of archeological sites in the proposed road corridors. Likewise the County Kawaihae Road - Mamalahoa (Lalamilo) Connector Road is not on track - given "NIMBY" concerns by Lalamilo farm lot owners, and the DLNR's (December 2010) agreement to remove the deed reservation for the road corridor on the northerly most farm lots. 8. TIAR Conclusions. It does not take a rocket scientist, or a traffic engineer, to conclude based on this TIAR (even given its inadequacies) that without the Lindsey Road extension (which would allow for a no left turn from the Kona direction of the Mamalahoa Highway) this rezoning amendment should not be approved. 9. South Kohala Traffic Safety Committee Recommendations, The Design Review Committee should also consider the concerns raised by the SKTSC, in its opposition to this rezoning - unless the Lindsey Road extension to the Connector Road is also constructed (whether by the County or by Parker Ranch). 10. Water issues. I also suggest the Committee request that Parker Ranch explain how its proposed water plan complies with the Water Code and related rules. 11. Premature approvals. Rezoning approvals should not be granted unless and until there is clarity of development responsibilities and a fixed timeline for compliance by the requesting developer. Without absolutely clear conditions, the County is unlikely to attempt to enforce any mitigation conditions. This point is demonstrated by the County's failure to enforce Parker Ranch's obligation to construct the Parker Ranch Connector Road concurrently with development in the immediate area - Lualai'i Subdivisions phases III and IV. [For example, the Planning Department instructed the Engineering Division to approve Parker Ranch's Lualai'i subdivision infrastructure construction plans without requiring construction of any portion of the abutting Connector Road. At that point had I not brought a legal action to force the County to enforce the Parker Ranch rezoning ordinance - the Connector Road would not have been constructed. (According to one of the Parker Ranch trustees the Parker Ranch Connector road was not likely to be constructed until the Waimea bypass would be build -- in other words, not any time in the foreseeable future). As an aside, I am still waiting to be told why the County subsequently gave Parker Ranch a 4.5 million dollar set off of fair share funds otherwise due - based on construction of this Parker Ranch Connector Road. I believe that set off was in error and should be corrected - given that the Parker Ranch rezoning ordinance provided for a set-off for intersections on Mamalahoa Highway, but did not provide any fair share set-off for construction of the road itself - the road construction being a key component of the original approval to rezone the entire 340 acres in the middle of Waimea. 12. CDP Principles. When evaluating this project, the overarching principles of the SKCDP should be taken into consideration - including the emphasis on concurrency of infrastructure development, the emphasis on pedestrian and bike traffic and "complete streets", and the emphasis on landscaping along roadways - which reaffirms Richard Smart's village/tree lined vision for the Lindsey Road extension. 13. Burden of Proof Based on the CDP's "Precautionary Principle" decision-making framework, and recent Hawaii Supreme Court cases, when reviewing proposed mitigation measures -- the burden of proof is on the private developer to demonstrate the adequacy of those measures. 14. No harm to DOE will result from delay in order to properly process this rezoning application. DOE has waited since the late 1980's to complete the transfer of the land promised by Richard Smart. There is no immediate plan by the school to develop the land now to be transferred. It is in DOE's interest that this rezoning be handled properly and with clarity - to start with, for the safety of vehicular and pedestrian access of its students to and from the school. I offer these suggestions as a concerned Waimea resident - with a home and home office off Kaiwaihae Road near to the /Lindsey/Kawaihae Road and Mamalahoa Highway intersection with the Lindsey Road extension corridor. I almost daily use the roads in this immediate area and am constantly affected by the lack of adequate traffic circulation in Waimea center - in terms of traffic congestion and aesthetic and environmental impacts at this location. My traffic concerns relate not only to the anticipated increased delay in vehicular travel time, but also the decreased safety for pedestrian uses, and degraded environmental factors that result from excessive traffic congestion. Sincerely, Margaret Wille
