Matayoshi dated May 7, 1980 informing bids for Phase II of the Waiakea Flood Control project were opened recently and the low bid of four was $1, 345, 478. 70 , which was acceptable to the Public Works Department. The bidding results have been reported to the Governor and they have requested the release of $456 ,645 in State funds appropriated for this project.
