The EA was prepared to identify, document and address potential environmental impacts associated with the Proposed Action. The EA examines two alternatives, the Proposed Action, and the No Action Alternative. ● Alternative I – No Action Alternative ● Alternative II – The Proposed Action – 64-unit housing development on Kapiolani Street and Kukuau Street in Hilo, Hawaii. This multi-family apartment development would provide affordable rental housing for low income households. The Office of the Governor of Hawaii, Hawaii State Legislature, and Hawaii Housing Finance and Development Corporation (HHFDC) have identified a need for affordable housing in Hawaii. In support of the Proposed Action, the County of Hawaii will be granting funds for 25 Section 8 Project Based Vouchers for rent subsidy, and the County may grant approximately $12,800,000 $1,500,000 of CDBG, HOME and/or HTF funds in support of the project. The following potentially impacted environments were evaluated in this EA: ● Topography and Geology ● Soils ● Natural Hazard   ● Flora and Fauna  ● Water Resources ● Climate and Air Quality  ● Noise ● Solid Wastes ● Land Use Considerations and Zoning ● Archaeological and Cultural Considerations ● Circulation and Traffic  ● Social Factors and Community Identity  ● Recreational and Public Facilities ● Visual and Aesthetic Resources ● Infrastructure Systems and Utilities   Findings: ● A Finding of No Significant Impact (FONSI) is anticipated determination has been made based on the environmental and social factors considered under the Proposed Action and the No-Action Alternative, as well as comments received on the Draft Environmental Assessment. ES-2 ● While potential impacts to Soil, Air Quality, Noise, and Circulation and Traffic are possible during construction, implementing best management practices would reduce these impacts to less than significant levels. ● Beneficial impacts to Land Use Considerations and Zoning are anticipated as they would address the necessity of additional affordable rental housing for lower income persons. ● Under Alternative I, the No Action Alternative, Land Use Considerations and Zoning would incur a negative impact as full use of the land will not be realized. Additional negative impacts are anticipated to Social Factors and Community Identity under Alternative I. If No Action is taken, lower income persons will not have the additional affordable housing units and support services available to them. 1 Section 1 Introduction and Summary 1.1 Scope and Authority This Environmental Assessment (EA) has been prepared in accordance with the National Environmental Policy Act (NEPA) of 1969; 24 Code of Federal regulations (CFR) Part 50 and Part 58 Environmental Review with the National Housing Trust Fund (HTF) Environmental Provisions at 24 CFR 93.301(f)(1); the Council on Environmental Quality (CEQ) regulations (40 Code of Federal Regulations [CFR] 1500-1508) and pursuant to Chapter 343, Hawaii Revised Statutes (HRS); and associated Title 11 Chapter 200 Hawaii Administrative Rules (HAR). The intent of the document is to ensure that systematic consideration is given to the environmental consequences of the Proposed Action. The Proposed Action is the construction of a new housing development on Hawaii Island, in Hilo Hawaii, Hawaii (Figure 1). A NEPA, 24 CFR Part 58 EA is required because the project has been allocated federal funds from the HOME Investment Partnerships Program (HOME), which is subsidized by the Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD) and the County of Hilo, Department of Housing on Human Concerns, and also Community Development Block Grant funds. The HTF also requires a 24 CFR Part 50 and Part 58 review according to environmental provisions of 24 CFR 93.301(f)(1) for new construction, and when combining HTF and other HUD funds. An HRS Chapter 343 EA is also required due to the award of state funds from the Rental Housing Revolving Fund, which is administered by the Hawaii Housing Finance and Development Corporation (HHFDC). 1.2 Project Information Project Name: Kaiaulu O Kapiolani Proposed Housing Development Project Hilo, Hawaii Applicant: A0705 Hilo, L.P. 2000 E.

The purpose of the Proposed Action (i.e., construction of a new affordable housing development) is to assist the State of Hawaii in addressing affordable housing needs. Need: The Office of the Governor of Hawaii has expressed a specific need to create additional affordable housing for the very low income to moderate income households. The Hawaii State Legislature has also recognized this need by passing legislation that has increased monies to funds such as the Rental Housing Revolving Fund for financing to build affordable rental housing units. This project helps to fulfill this need for affordable rental housing. The Department of Business, Economic Development & Tourism (DBEDT) projects a population increase in Hawaii County of 29.5% by 2025. This would result in a total demand of between 7,816 and 13,527 additional housing units for Hawaii County by 2025 (DBEDT, 2019). 2.2 Project Description The proposed development site (TMKs (3) 2-4-025:048,053,080) encompasses 5.05 acres of land situated in Hilo on the east side of the Island of Hawaii. Currently, this location is zoned for multi- family dwelling units. A0705 Hilo, L.P. is proposing to develop an affordable rental complex of 64 units, consisting of 32 two-bedroom units, an estimated 24 three-bedroom units, and an estimated 8 4-bedroom units in Hilo (Figures 3-11). The development will include a community center for resident use (Figure 12) and at least 80 117 parking stalls. The objective of this project is to produce an affordable rental development, while utilizing the least amount of State of Hawaii resources. These apartments will target low income households earning 60 percent or less of the Area Median Income (AMI) for the County of Hawai‘i. These units will address the dire need for affordable rentals for the households in this income bracket, many of whom are at risk of becoming homeless due to the severe housing shortage. 2.3 Construction Time Frame and Estimated Project Construction Cost The construction period is estimated to be from 2022 through 2023. Construction is estimated to begin first quarter of 2022. Completion is anticipated in the fourth quarter of 2023. The total budget for these improvement activities is estimated at $53,888,000 $46,400,000. The anticipated primary financing will be provided by Hunt Capital Partners and Section 8 Project Based Vouchers. HHFDC has awarded Tax Exempt Bonds, tax credits and the State’s Rental Housing Revolving Funds. 8 THIS PAGE INTENTIONALLY LEFT BLANK.

Under NEPA (as implemented by the CEQ regulations [40 CFR Parts 1500-1508]) and HAR, Title 11, Department of Health, Chapter 200 Environmental Impact Statement Rules, Section 11-200-17 (f), all alternatives considered for the proposed project should be evaluated. These alternatives may possibly enhance environmental quality or avoid, reduce, or minimize some or all of the adverse environmental effects, costs, and risks. 3.1 Alternative I: No Action Alternative Under the No Action alternative, the Site would be kept as is with no changes or alterations. This alternative would not accomplish the goals detailed in Section 2.1, Purpose and Need and would leave much of the existing Site vacant. 3.2 Alternative II: The Proposed Action The Proposed Action is the construction of a 64-unit multi-family apartment complex (Figures 4, 6, 8, 10). This development would provide affordable housing to low income households. 30 THIS PAGE INTENTIONALLY LEFT BLANK. 31 Section 4 AFFECTED ENVIRONMENT This section discusses the current status of the potentially affected environments should the Proposed Action be implemented. Affected environments include important natural and cultural sources and systems. Environmental consequences are provided in Section 5. 4.1 Physical Environment 4.1.1 Topography and Geology According to the United States Geological Survey (USGS), Honolulu, Hawaii, 7.5 minute topographic map, the subject property is located at -155.087087 – 155o 5’ 14’ longitude and 19.71405 – 19o 42’ 51” latitude, approximately 91 feet above mean sea level (EDR, 2019e). The Site is unpaved and undeveloped with overgrown vegetation covering the majority of the parcel. Vegetation on the Site and surrounding property was found to be heavily wooded and associated with the moist conditions of the area. No chemicals or hazardous materials were observed on the subject property. No noticeable spills, unusual odors, or evidence of oil contamination was noted during the site reconnaissance in February 2019. The subject Site address submitted to the Environmental Database Resource (EDR) was not listed in any reviewed databases searched by EDR. The Site is located south of the Wailuku River, which is the approximate boundary between the lava flows from Mauna Kea (north) and those from Mauna Loa (south). The Mauna Loa lava flow consists of Ka’u volcanic series, an extremely permeable basalt. There are patches of Pahala ash on some older Mauna Loa lavas near the Wailuku River, but are insignificant in contrast to the wide extent of bare Ka’u lava over the remainder of the area (Buchanan-Banks, J.M., 1993a). 4.1.2 Soils The United States Department of Agriculture (USDA) Soil Conservation Service classifies the soil within the Site as 100% Keaukaha-Urban land complex. It is classified as Hydrologic Soil Group D with a typical profile consisting of highly decomposed plant material from 0 to 4 inches below ground surface (bgs), and lithic bedrock from 4 to 14 inches bgs. The soils have a high runoff class, which indicates they are well drained. The depth to groundwater is more than 80 inches (USDA, 2019). 4.1.3 Natural Hazard The Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA) Flood Insurance Rate Map (FIRM) #1551660736F is a Non-Printed Flood Map Boundary. Upon consultation with the County of Hawaii Engineering division, it was determined that the Site lies within Flood Zone X, beyond the 500-year flood plain (Figure 13). The Hawaiian Islands are seasonally affected by Pacific hurricanes from the months of June to November. The State has been affected by significant hurricanes in the past, including Hiki (1950), Nina (1957), Dot (1959), Iwa (1982), Iniki (1992), and Iselle (2014). The main concerns with hurricanes are the damaging winds, heavy rains, and high surf. According to a report presented at the International Union of Conservation of Nature World Conservation Congress, global climate 32 change could mean that Hawaii may experience more frequent and more severe hurricanes in the future (HNN, 2016). A tsunami is a series of waves caused by earthquakes or undersea volcanic eruptions that can impact all shorelines (NOAA, 2019). This Site is not located in a tsunami evacuation zone. The County of Hawaii, Evacuation Zone Map is presented in Figure 15. Due to the volcanic nature of the Hawaiian Islands, the islands are very vulnerable to seismic activity. Most of the earthquakes in Hawaii occur on the island of Hawaii, as it is the only island with an active volcano. However, other earthquakes are caused by the weight of the Hawaiian Islands on the Pacific lithosphere (Nullet, Dennis). According to USGS, the Site is located in Lava-Flow Hazard Zone 3, which are areas less hazardous than Zone 2 due to greater distance from recent active vents (Figure 14). The eruption and subsequent lava flows that occurred in 2018 were located south of the Site in the Kilauea lava flow, which was designated Lava-Flow Hazard Zone 2 and 3 (Wright, Chun, & Exposo et. al., 2011). The Site is not anticipated to be impacted by waves, storm surges, high tide or shoreline erosion. According to the Hawaii Sea Level Rise Viewer, mapping of the project site shows it is not susceptible to sea level rise at 0.5 feet (www.hawaiisealevelriseviewer.com), Appendix A, Exhibit 5. 4.1.4 Flora and Fauna A Biological Survey was not performed on the Site. A pre-consult letter was sent to U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service (USFWS) in order to serve as a biological inquiry, but a response was not received before the submission date for this EA. USFWS identified the following species as may occurring or transiting through the vicinity of the proposed project area. • the endangered Hawaiian hoary bat (Lasiurus cinereus semotus), • the endangered Hawaiian goose (Branta sandvicensis), • the endangered Band-rumped storm petrel (Oceanodroma castro), • the endangered Hawaiian petrel (Pterodroma sandwichensis), • the threatened Newell’s shearwater (Puffinus newelli), • the endangered Hawaiian stilt or aeʻo (Himantopus mexicanus knudseni), • the endangered Hawaiian coot or ʻalae keʻokeʻo (Fulica alai), and • the endangered Blackburn’s sphinx moth. The Hawaiian petrel, band-rumped storm-petrel, and Newell’s shearwater will hereafter, collectively be referred to as “Hawaiian seabirds,” and the Hawaiian stilt and Hawaiian coot will be referred to as “Hawaiian waterbirds.” The USFWS determined there is no critical habitat for listed species in the vicinity of this proposed project. During the Archaeological Inventory Survey (AIS), some plant species were noted. Senior Archaeologists Glen and Suzan Escott noted that the area was dominated by trees, grasses, ferns, and bushes. The tree species include gunpowder (Trema orientalis), autograph (Clusia rosea), PROJECT NAME: Environmental Assessment Kaiaulu O Kapiolani Kapiolani Street and Kukuau Street Hilo, Hawaii 96720 TMKs (3) 2-4-025:048,053,080 FIGURE NAME: Flood Insurance Rate Map FIGURE NUMBER: 13 USGS The National Map: Orthoimagery.

No mammals, birds, or insects were noted during the AIS. A Biological Survey was conducted by SSFM International in October of 2018 at a proposed hydroelectric facility at Wailuku River, about two and a half miles northwest of the Site. Since this Biological Survey was conducted only a few miles from the site in an area not too much higher in elevation (approximately 350 feet higher than the Site), it can be assumed that the project areas would have similar plant and animal species. The follow are the findings of SSFM International’s Biological Survey. The area was previously dominated by native ‘ohi’a and koa trees, but the native vegetation has mostly been destroyed by farming and cultivation of sugar cane. The area is now dominated by non-native plant species. Threatened or endangered wide-ranging terrestrial vertebrate species, such as the endangered Hawaiian hawk and endangered Hawaiian hoary bat may be present in the area. The Hawaiian hawk is endemic to Hawaii, but is currently only found on the Island of Hawaii. They breed in stands of the native ‘ohi’a trees, but utilize a broad range of areas for foraging, including wooded areas with both native or non- native vegetation. A total of six migratory Birds of Conservation Concern were identified in the USFWS’s Information for Planning and Consrvation (IPaC) database. The endangered Hawaiian hoary bat (Lashiurus cinereus semotus) is the only native terrestrial mammal species that still exists in the Hawaiian Islands. They forage in open, wooded, and linear habitats with a wide range of vegetation types. Hawaii Department of Land and Natural Resources, Division of Forestry and Wildlife noted the State listed Hawaiian Hawk or ‘Io (Buteo solitarius) is known to occur in the project vicinity. And the Hawaiian Hoary Bat or ʻŌpeʻapeʻa (Lasiurus cinereus semotus) has the potential to occur in the vicinity of the project area and may roost in nearby trees. 4.1.5 Wetlands The U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service (USFWS) National Wetland Inventory, Wetland Mapper (USFWS, 2017) did not identify any wetlands in the project area. The nearest wetlands are Wailuku River, which is located approximately ½ mile north of the Site; Alenaio Stream, which is located approximately ¾ miles southeast the Site; and Waloa Pond, which is located approximately a mile southeast from the Site. The Wetlands Mapper figure is presented as Figure 16. 4.1.6 Water Resources Groundwater Groundwater in Hawaii occurs in volcanic rock aquifers, which consist of a freshwater lens that floats on saltwater, separated by a zone of brackish water (SSFM, 2018). The Site overlies the Hilo aquifer system of the Northeast Mauna Loa aquifer sector. The aquifer is a basal (fresh water in contact with sea water), unconfined (where water table is upper surface of saturated aquifer), flank aquifer. It is classified as currently used, drinking, irreplaceable, and highly vulnerable to contamination, and fresh water (<250 milligrams per liter [mg/l] chloride [Cl-]) (Mink and Lau, 1992). The sustainable yield of the aquifer has been estimated at 347 million gallons per day 40 (County of Hawaii, 2014). The Project Site is not located above any of the nine Sole-Source aquifers identified in the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency’s (US EPA) Region 9. According to a 1-mile radius search from the Site, the EDR report listed two (2) United States Geological Survey (USGS) wells within a 1-mile radius of the Site (EDR, 2019e). The nearest Federal Public Water Supply (PWS) well is located within a ¼-mile radius from the Site. The subject property of the well is located up-gradient of the Underground Injection Control Line (UIC) therefore it is considered a potable water resource. The subject property of the other well is located down-gradient of the UIC therefore, not considered a potable water resource. Injection wells do require a UIC permit or permit exemption and permit limitations are imposed (Figure 17). Studies have shown anticipated sea level rise could affect the boundary between saltwater and freshwater, causing freshwater to be lifted. The result is a rise in the groundwater table. Low elevation coastal planes and shallow groundwater tables are prevalent in Hawaii. The rise in the groundwater level could affect drinking water by turning wells that were previously freshwater into brackish or saline. Groundwater at the Site is in contact with seawater. The aquifer supporting the site could experience impacts from sea level rise (Figure 18). Surface Water There are no streams or surface water features at the Site. The nearest natural body of water is the Pacific Ocean to the north. There is a natural occurring pond, Waiakea Pond, within a mile east of the vicinity. The pond, which flows into Hilo Bay, is utilized as a recreational public fishing area (Department of Land and Natural Resources). 4.1.7 Climate and Air Quality Climate The climate in Hilo is characterized as a subtropical rainforest climate with substantial rainfall throughout the year. The temperature and amount of rainfall in Hilo varies based on altitude, with cooler temperatures and greater precipitation in higher elevations. Temperatures in Hilo remain moderate and steady throughout the year, with an average temperature of 73 oF. The steady temperature reflects small seasonal variation in energy received from the sun and the temperature effect of the surrounding Pacific Ocean. The average high temperature in Hilo is 80.9 oF, which generally occurs during the months of July through October. The average low temperature in Hilo is 66.8 oF, which generally occurs during the months of January and February (U.S. Climate Data). Hilo, which is located on the windward side of the island, has a very wet climate. Hilo receiving an average of approximately 126.69 inches of rain per year (U.S. Climate Data). Air Quality The Clean Air Act of 1972 and its 1990 Amendments (CAA) and subsequent legislation regulate air emissions from area, stationary, and mobile sources. Both the USEPA and the State of Hawaii have instituted Ambient Air Quality Standards (AAQS) to maintain air quality in the interest of public health and secondary public welfare. Currently, the parameters that are regulated include: particulate matter, sulfur dioxide, hydrogen sulfide, nitrogen dioxide, carbon monoxide, ozone and PROJECT NAME: Environmental Assessment Kaiaulu O Kapiolani Kapiolani Street and Kukuau Street Hilo, Hawaii 96720 TMKs (3) 2-4-025:048,053,080 FIGURE NAME: Wetland Map FIGURE NUMBER: 16 Kaiulu O Kapiolani wetlands U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service, National Standards and Support Team,wetlands_team@fws.gov Wetlands Estuarine and Marine Deepwater Estuarine and Marine Wetland Freshwater Emergent Wetland Freshwater Forested/Shrub Wetland Freshwater Pond Lake Other Riverine August 9, 2019 0 0.3 0.60.15 mi 0 0.5 10.25 km 1:19,111 This page was produced by the NWI mapperNational Wetlands Inventory (NWI) This map is for general reference only.

The Hawaii AAQS are in some cases considerably more stringent than the comparable National Ambient Air Quality Standards (NAAQS). In particular, the Hawaii 1-hour AAQS for carbon monoxide is four times more stringent than the comparable national limit. The largest source of air pollution in the immediate project area is most likely associated with automobile traffic. Emissions from automobile traffic consist primarily of particulate matter, carbon monoxide, sulfur dioxide, and nitrogen oxides. Volcanic emissions from Kilauea Volcano also affect the air quality during “Kona” or southerly wind conditions. The Hawaii Department of Health (HDOH) operates a network of air quality monitoring stations at various locations around the state, including a station in Hilo located near the Hilo Medical Center. This station monitors particulate matter (PM) 2.5 and sulfur dioxide (SO2). Volcanic eruptions are considered natural events; therefore, the USEPA may exclude exceedances of the one-hour NAAQS from attainment determinations (HDOH, 2016). The State of Hawaii is in attainment with the NAAQS for all pollutants regulated by the USEPA. In addition to the NAAQS and the State AAQS, the HDOH regulates fugitive dust. HAR Section 11-60.1-33, Fugitive Dust, states that no person shall cause or permit visible fugitive dust to become airborne without taking reasonable precautions, and no person shall cause or permit the discharge of visible fugitive dust beyond the property lot line on which the fugitive dust originates (HDOH, 2019). This rule applies to construction projects and would therefore be applicable to the Proposed Action. The Site is located within 5 miles of Hilo International Airport. Specifically, it is approximately 1.55 miles from Runway 3. Due to the proximity of the airport, there are potential for fumes, smoke, vibrations, odors, etc. that may result from aircraft flight operations overhead. 4.1.8 Noise Noise is defined as unwanted sound and is one of the most common environmental issues of concern to the public. The State of Hawaii Community Noise Control Rule (HAR Chapter 11-46) defines three classes of zoning districts and specifies corresponding maximum permissible sound levels due to stationary noise sources (air-conditioning units, generators, pumps, etc.), but does not address most moving sources (vehicular traffic, air traffic, etc.). However, noise relating to construction activities is regulated. Noise impacts from construction-related activities are regulated under the HAR, HDOH, Title 11, Chapter 46, Community Noise Control. The project area is located in a residential zone, and as such falls into District Class A under the HDOH regulations, with a maximum day (7:00 a.m. to 10:00 p.m.) and night (10:00 p.m. to 7:00 a.m.) sound level threshold of 55 decibels (dBA). This sound threshold is enforced for any location at or beyond the property line, which cannot be exceeded for more than 10% of the time during any 20-minute period. District Class A also covers areas zoned as military and federal preservation land, conservation, open space and public space. Table 1 lists sound exposure levels (SELs) associated with typical equipment, in varying operating modes. 48 Table 1: Typical Equipment Sound Levels Equipment Sound Level (in dBA) Under Indicated Operational Mode Idle Power Full Power Moving Under Load Dozer 63 74 81 Dump Truck 70 71 74 Excavator 62 66 72 Forklift 63 69 91 Front-end Loader 60 62 68 Grader 64 68 78 Sweeper 64 76 85 Tractor-Trailer 67 78 77 The Site is located outside the 55 Day-Night Average Sound Levels noise contours on the 2018 Hilo International Airport map, however there is potential for single event noise from aircraft operations. 4.1.9 Solid Wastes Public facilities for solid waste on the island of Hawaii includes two landfills West Hawaii Sanitary Landfill and East Hawaii Reload Facility and twenty-one transfer stations. There are two three locations near the site, South Hilo Sanitary Landfill, East Hawaii Organics Facility, and Hilo Transfer Station. 4.1.10 Hazardous Wastes Environmental Risk Analysis, LLC performed a Phase 1 Environmental Site Assessment (ESA) in 2019. The findings are summarized below: ● The Site is unpaved and undeveloped with overgrown vegetation covering the majority of the parcel. No chemicals or hazardous materials were observed on the subject property. No noticeable spills or evidence of oil contamination was noted during the site reconnaissance. Vegetation on the Site and surrounding property was found to be heavily wooded, most likely associated with the humid and moist condition of the area. No unusual odors or staining were noticed indicating a potential environmental condition. ● The Site was not listed in any of the databases searched by EDR. The EDR database search provides a review of federal, state, and local lists and available files of reported hazardous waste sites and hazardous substance/petroleum product sources and releases. ● There are no underground storage tanks (USTs) located on the Site, or on properties adjacent to the Site. No leaking underground storage tank (LUST) sites were located directly adjacent to the Site. A search of the HDOH UST Branch database records (dated 49 08/31/2018) resulted in eleven (11) sites having reported a UST release within a ½-mile radius of the Site. According to the HDOH LUST database, of the 11 LUST sites, nine (9) sites are recorded as Site Cleanup Completed and were issued a No Further Action (NFA). The LUST sites do not pose an environmental threat to the subject Site. ● ERA observed three (3) electrical transformers located near the Site. Hawaii Electric Light Company (HELCO) was queried regarding if the polychlorinated biphenyl (PCB) status of these transformers were known. HELCO responded that all three (3) observed pole mounted transformers were non-PCB containing. 4.2 Social Environment 4.2.1 Land Use Considerations and Zoning The County of Hawaii, Planning Division, indicates the Site Land Use Ordinance Zoning Designation is Multi-family Dwelling Units (RM 1.5). The Site is not located in a Special District or Special Management Area. 4.2.2 Archaeological and Cultural Considerations The project area located in Hilo, Hawaii, Tax Map Keys (TMKs) (3) 2-4-025:048,053,080, consists of a 5.05-acre parcel located on the west side of Kapiolani Street, where it intersects with Kukuau Street. The substrate of the project area is a Mauna Loa lava flow dated between 750 and 1,500 years ago. The soil of the project area is Keaukaha Series (rKFD) extremely rocky much overlaying pahoehoe lava. Scattered subsistence agriculture was evident around the project area. The Site is located on level to moderately sloping land at 95 feet above mean sea level. Early accounts of settlements on the windward side of the island describe the Hilo area as having several different environmental regions. From Hilo Bay to approximately 6 miles inland was scattered subsistence agriculture, followed by a region full of tall ferns and bracken. In the higher elevations were forest regions spanning 10 to 20 miles across, followed by an expanse of grass and lava. The rich marine resources of Hilo Bay and gently sloping forests of Mauna Loa and Mauna Kea provided abundant resources for the local people. Hilo was established as a royal center by the sixteenth century and became a port of call for whalers and merchant ships, and a point of entry for missionaries and travelers. Hilo continued to develop as a commercial port throughout the twentieth century, and eventually became developed with shopping centers and malls, industrial parks and residential neighborhoods. A search was conducted for archaeological sites and architectural structures within approximate half-mile of the current project area that are eligible for listing on the National Register of Historic Places (NRHP) and Hawaii Register of Historic Places (HRHP). These Sites include two historical districts, several church buildings, schools, commercial buildings, homes, and a Portuguese oven. The Site is comprised of TMKs (3) 2-4-025:048,053,080. An AIS was conducted at each of the parcels in order to identify archaeological features and sites that may be located on the parcel. An AIS of parcels 048 and 053 had previously been conducted by Nelson, Clark and Rechtman in 2006. An AIS of parcel 080 was conducted on July 11, 2019 by Senior Archaeologists Glen Escott M.A. and Suzan Escott, B.A of Scientific Consultant Services, Inc. (SCS). There was no evidence 50 of prehistoric or historic sites or features observed during the field survey of the parcels. Based on historical and archaeological literature review, consultation efforts and responses, and the reconnaissance survey, SCS concluded that there are no indications that specific traditional and customary practices are being carried in the vicinity of the project area. There is a low probability that surface and subsurface archaeological features and/or human remains would be discovered by excavations in the area. SCS recommended a determination of “no historic properties affected” for the proposed development project. State Historic Preservation Division accepted the AIS and report concurred with the finding of “no historic properties affected”. An Archaelogical Field Inspection was conducted in September 2020 by ASM Affiliates (Appendix A, Exhibit 11). A 100% surface inspection was performed of the entire parcel. No lava blisters or historic properties were observed. ASM Affiliates recommended a “no historic properties affected” determination for the property. Cultural Impact Assessment for TMK (3) 2-4-025:080 A Cultural Impact Assessment (October 2019) was conducted by Scientific Consultant Service, Inc. for the project site (Appendix A, Exhibit 11). Based on the results of an Archaeological Assessment of the project area, the results of previous archaeological studies, as well as organizational response, individual cultural informant responses, and archival research, it is reasonable to conclude that, pursuant to Act 50, the exercise of native Hawaiian rights, or any ethnic group, related to gathering, access or other customary activities will not be affected by development activities on this parcel. The proposed project is not a location for past or ongoing cultural practices. The proposed undertaking will not produce adverse effects to any native Hawaiian cultural practices within the project area or in the broader region. As suggested in the “Guidelines for Accessing Cultural Impacts” (OEQC 1997), CIAs incorporating personal interviews should include ethnographic and oral history interview procedures, circumstances attending the interviews, as well as the results of this consultation. It is also permissible to include organizations with individuals familiar with cultural practices and features associated with the project area. As stated above, consultation was sought from Kamaile Puluole-Mitchell, Office of Hawaiian Affairs (OHA) East Hawaii Island Representative; Jordan Kea Calpito, SHPD Burial Sites Specialist; Sean Naleimaile, State Historic Preservation Division (SHPD) Hawaii Island Archaeologist; and Kalena Blakemore, Hawaii Island Burial Council (HIBC) Member. Public notices were printed in the September 2019 issue of the Office of Hawaiian Affairs (OHA) Ka Wai Ola Newspaper. Public notices were also published in the Honolulu Star- Advertiser, and the Hawaii Tribune Herald on August 14th, 15th, and 18th. The public notices did not generate responses from the public. This fact is not surprising since it is unlikely as there no known inland locations in Hilo town where gathering or cultural practices occur. An analysis of the potential effect of the proposed construction of residences on cultural resources, practices or beliefs, its potential to isolate cultural resources, practices or beliefs from their setting, and the potential of the project to introduce elements which may alter the setting in which cultural practices take place is a requirement of the OEQC (No. 10, 1997). To our knowledge, the project 51 area was used as a location for animal husbandry in the late Historic to Modern eras. Based on historical research and responses from the above listed contacts, it is reasonable to conclude that, as the current project was not and is not a location for past and ongoing cultural practices, there will be no traditional cultural practices affected and there will be no direct adverse effect upon cultural practices or beliefs in the broader project area region. 4.2.3 Transportation Traffic and Circulation A Traffic Impact Analysis Report (TIAR) was conducted for the Site by Austin, Tsutsumi & Associates, Inc., received June 21, 2019 (provided in Appendix A). The following are the results of their study. The Site will be made accessible along Kapiolani Street and Kukuau Street. Kapiolani Street provides access to residential and commercial areas as well as institutional uses, such as the Hawaii Police Department, Hilo Driver Licensing Station, and the University of Hawaii (UH) at Hilo. Kukuau Street mainly provides access to residential and commercial areas in South Hilo. Hualalai Street, which is located northeast of the Site, provides access to St. Joseph School and residential and commercial areas. Kupukupu Street, which is located approximately a ¼-mile southeast of the Site, provides access to Kukuau Street to 5 existing residential buildings, and is proposed as one of the access roads to the project. The Site is equidistant to two major highways, Route 200 and Route 19, which are approximately a mile northwest and a mile northeast. The immediate area surrounding the site is a developed residential area, therefore, traffic is generally light to moderate. The main source of traffic in the area is the surrounding schools, with over 8 schools in the area including Hilo High School and UH Hilo. Therefore, peak traffic hours occur from 7AM to 8AM, and then in the afternoon from 3:45PM to 4:45PM. The intersections of Kukuau Street and Kupukupu Street, Kapiolani Street and Kukuau Street, and Kapiolani Street and Hualalai Street are all unsignalized. The roads surrounding the Site are considered “complete streets”, which encourage equitable, accessible, and safe transportation for all modes. Sidewalks are provided along both sides of the roadway on Kapiolani Street and Hualalai Street. Kukuau Street only has a sidewalk provided along the eastbound direction of the roadway. There is a bicycle lane located on Kukuau Street, and a signed shared roadway on Kapiolani Street. The Island of Hawaii utilizes the public transportation of the Hele-On Bus. There are no bus routes that run along the streets surrounding the project area, however, there is a bus stop approximately a half mile away from the Site on Kilauea Avenue. The study addressed the following: ● Existing traffic operating conditions at key intersections during the weekday morning (AM) and afternoon (PM) peak hours of traffic within the study area. ● Traffic projections for Base Year 2021 (without the development of the Site) including traffic generated by other known developments in the vicinity of the Site in addition to an ambient growth rate. These other known developments are projects that are currently under 52 construction or known new/future developments that are anticipated to affect traffic demand and operations within the study area. ● Trip generation and traffic assignment characteristics for the proposed development of the Site. ● Traffic projections for Future Year 2021 (with the development of the Site), which includes Base Year traffic volumes in addition to traffic volumes generated by project. ● Recommendations for Base Year as well as Future Year roadway improvements or other mitigative measures, as appropriate, to reduce or eliminate the adverse impacts resulting from traffic generated by known developments in the region or the Site. Based on the study, existing traffic volumes in the study area were generally light with the studied roadways servicing local traffic only. All intersections were observed to operate adequately with no major delays to any movements. The study intersections operate satisfactorily during both peak hours of traffic with all movements operating at LOS C or better. Base year 2021 predictions state that although some of the minor street movements are expected to experience longer delays, all minor street movements are anticipated to operate at LOS C or better during the AM peak hour of traffic and LOS D or better during the PM peak hour. All major street movements are anticipated to continue operating at LOS A during both peak hours. According to Future Year 2021 predictions, at full buildout, the Site is projected to generate a total of 32 net external trips during the AM peak hours of traffic, and 42 net external trips during the PM peak hours of traffic. Traffic from the Project is expected to generate growth along major roadways in the study area. It is anticipated that by Future Year 2021 with the Project, traffic will increase slightly compared to Base Year 2021 conditions without the Project due to the projected growth along Kapiolani Street and Kukuau Street. Despite the added traffic, all movements will continue to operate similar to Base Year 2021 conditions at LOS C or better during the AM peak hour of traffic and LOS D or better during the PM peak hour. Both Project access intersections are anticipated to operate with all movements at LOS B or better during both peak hours. Study findings are presented in Table 2. Table 2: LOS Summary Table Existing Conditions and Base Year 2021 53 Airports The Site is located approximately 1.55 miles from the end of Runway 3 at the Hilo International Airport. Due to the proximity of the Site to the Hilo International Airport, there is a potential for fumes, smoke, vibrations, odors, etc. that may result from aircraft flight operations over the proposed housing development. While the Site is located outside the 55 Day-Night Average Sound Levels area on the Noise Exposure Map, which can be seen in Appendix A, Exhibit 12, there is still a potential to create noise pollution from aircraft operations. Also, according to the Federal Aviation Association (FAA), the use of Photovoltaic (PV) systems near the approach path of aircrafts is prohibited, as it may interfere with radio communications and visually impair the pilots. The Site is not located within a Runway Protection Zone/Clear Zone (RPZ/CZ) or Accident Potential Zone (APZ). 4.2.4 Social Factors and Community Identity Aerial photographs from 2013 depicts the area as it appears today with a police station to the northeast of the site. The Site is located approximately a mile away from Hilo Elementary School, Hilo High School, along with several other schools. Wailoa River State Recreational Area is located less than two miles from the Site. Within two miles of the Site are several small shops, grocery stores, drug stores, coffee shops, and restaurants. Two beachfront hotels and a golf course are located approximately two miles from the Site. According to the U.S. Census Bureau the population in Hilo is approximately 43,263 people (Census, 2010). There are approximately 15,955 households, with an average of 2.78 people per household (Census, 2013-2017). 4.2.5 Recreational and Public Facilities Recreational activities in the area mainly consist of outdoor activities such as swimming, surfing, scuba diving, snorkeling, dolphin and whale watching, hiking and camping, golfing, boating and fishing. A number of recreational areas and facilities are located throughout the island of Hawaii, consisting of beach parks, golf courses, district and neighborhood parks, and community centers. Honoli’i Beach Park, Keaukaha Beach Park, and Laupahoehoe Beach Park are popular beach parks located on the east side of the island. Several state parks are located on the east side of the island as well, including ‘Akaka Falls State Park, Wailoa River State Park, Lava Tree State Monument, and Hawaii Volcanoes National Park. There are several resorts found around Hilo Bay, which is located northeast of the Site. Five (5) public recreational facilities were identified within a 1-mile radius of the project site. Lincoln Park is a County of Hawaii owned; public park located approximately 1500-feet north of the project site. Hilo Bayfront Soccer fields is a public park located approximately 3000-feet northeast of the project site. Mohouli Park is a public park located approximately 3000-feet southwest of the project site. University Heights Park is a County of Hawaii owned; public park located approximately 3200-feet south of the project Site. 54 4.2.6 Visual and Aesthetic Resources The Site is located in a residential area and is not specifically identified in any county or State plans or studies as containing scenic vistas or view planes. Kaiaulu O Kapiolani site is not identified as a scenic vista or view plane nor will it affect identified scenic vistas or view planes. The community will not affect scenic corridors and coastal scenic and open space resources. In addition, the project development will not have buildings exceeding two stories. 4.2.7 Infrastructure Systems and Utilities Electricity service is supplied by Hawaiian Electric. Telephone, cable, and internet can be provided by Spectrum or Hawaiian Telcom, as well as satellite service providers. County of Hawaii Department of Water Supply is responsible for providing drinking water for all of Hawaii County. The infrastructure is expected to be able to meet the drinking water demand of the proposed project, as the water demand would be an additional 64 75 units, whereas a previous proposed project at the Site had a water demand of an additional 97 units. Wastewater and sewer are managed by the County of Hawaii Wastewater Division. There is no sewer main on the Site, but there is a 10-inch sewer main located in Kukuau Street that may be an option for wastewater and sewer, as long as it can meet the demand of an extra 14,280 gallons per day (gpd) from the proposed project. The Hawaii County Fire Department has 20 stations throughout the island of Hawaii. There is one station in Hilo, “Station 1”, which is located at 466 Kinoole Street, less than a mile away from the Site. The next nearest station is “Station 2”, located at 95 Keaa St., which is approximately 2.3 miles from the Site. The Hawaii Police Department is headquartered in Hilo, which is located at 349 Kapiolani Street, directly across the street from the Site. Kaiaulu O Kapiolani is located within the Hawaii School District, Hilo Complex. The schools located in the Hilo complex include: de Silva Elementary, Haaheo Elementary, Hilo High, Hilo Intermediate, Hilo Union Elementary, Kalanianaole Elementary and Intermediate, Chiefess Kapiolani Elementary, Kaumana Elementary, Keaukaha Elementary, Connections NCPCS, Ka ‘Umeke Ka’eo PCS, and Ke Ana La’ahana PCS. Hilo Union, Hilo Intermediate, and Hilo High School are all within a mile of the Site. University of Hawaii at Hilo, and Hawaii Community College, and Pacific Academy of Music are all located on the east side of the island of Hawaii. University of Hawaii at Hilo and Hawaii Community College offer on-site and distance learning classes and program. Other colleges and universities are located on the west side of Hawaii Island. The Hele-On Bus transportation system is available for seniors and persons with disability and those with mobility devices. Hele-On Kako’o is available in the Hilo and Kona area. There are two (2) Hele-On bus stations within a 1/2-mile radius of the project Site. The Hele-On Mo’oheau Bus Terminal located at 329 Kamehameha Avenue and the hele-On Bus Stop located at 16-44 Ohuohu Street in Hilo, Hawaii. 55 Section 5 ENVIRONMENTAL CONSEQUENCES AND PROPOSED MITIGATION MEASURES Potential impacts of Alternative I: No Action and Alternative II: Proposed Action are described in this section of the report. Impacts are evaluated on whether they constitute a “significant effect” on a particular environmental setting. Impacts are described as having No Impact, Significant Adverse Impact or Beneficial Impact depending on the outcome to the environment. The terms impact and effect are used synonymously in this EA. Impacts may apply to the full range of natural, aesthetic, historic, cultural and economic resources. The following subsections define key terms used throughout Section 5, Significance Criteria A “significant effect” is defined by HRS Chapter 343 as “the sum of effects on the quality of the environment, including actions that irrevocably commit a natural resource, curtail the range of beneficial uses of the environment, are contrary to the State’s environmental policies or long-term environmental goals as established by law, or adversely affect the economic welfare, social welfare, or cultural practices of the community and State.” Beneficial Versus Adverse Impacts from the proposed Action may also have beneficial or adverse effects to the environment. Beneficial impacts are those that have favorable outcomes and add value to the environment. Adverse impacts are those that produce detrimental effects and cause harm to the environment. Cumulative Impacts Cumulative impacts are two or more individual effects which, when considered together, compound or increase the overall impact. Cumulative impacts can arise from the individual effects of a single action or from the combined effects of past, present, or future actions. Thus, cumulative impacts can result from individually minor but collectively significant actions taken over a period of time. The cumulative impacts of implementing the Proposed Action along with past and reasonably foreseeable future projects proposed were assessed based upon available information. Cumulative impacts are discussed in Section 5.3. Mitigative Measures Mitigative measures are defined as measures taken to avoid, reduce and compensate for adverse impacts to a resource. Mitigative measures are identified and discussed for each alternative, where relevant. In this EA, mitigative measures are provided to reduce adverse impacts when levels of impact are more than minor and to ensure levels of impact are not significant. Only those mitigative measures that are practicable have been identified. 56 5.1 Physical Environment 5.1.1 Topography and Geology Alternative I No significant adverse impacts to the topography or geology are expected to result from Alternative I. The Site would remain the same as there would be no construction. Alternative II No significant adverse impacts to the topography or geology are expected to result from Alternative II. As the Site is essentially on a flat surface, no significant changes to the topography are necessary for construction. Construction and operational activities would follow existing topography. 5.1.2 Soils Alternative I No significant adverse impacts are anticipated for Alternative I. Site conditions would remain the same. Alternative II Alternative II could have a potential significant adverse impact to soils as a result of construction activities (i.e., clearing, grubbing, excavation and trenching) that disturb the earth and soils. Exposed soils are susceptible to erosion during periods of heavy rain or wind, which occur often due to the Site being located on the windward side (wet side) of the island. Short-term adverse impacts would be minimized to less than significant or avoided by implementing temporary erosion control measures during construction activities. All earthwork will conform to Hawaii County Code Chapter 10. All runoff will be disposed of on- site. An existing flood route is in the immediate vicinity of the proposed project site. Impacts from the undeveloped flood route have been evaluated. The developed condition flow will not exceed the pre-developed condition flow in accordance with County drainage standards. 5.1.3 Natural Hazard Alternative I No significant adverse impacts to natural hazard vulnerability would result from Alternative I as the Site will not change. 57 Alternative II No significant adverse impacts to natural hazard vulnerability would result from Alternative II. The project area lies approximately 91 feet above mean sea level and is classified within Flood Zone X, where the risk of flooding would be minimal. The Site is located in Lava-Flow Hazard Zone 3, where risk of adverse impacts by lava is fairly low. The Site is not located in a tsunami evacuation zone and does not lie within the 0.5 ft sea level rise exposure area. 5.1.4 Flora and Fauna Alternative I No significant adverse impacts to flora/fauna are anticipated by implementing Alternative I, as the Site would remain undeveloped. Alternative II No significant adverse impacts to flora and fauna are anticipated due to Alternative II. While no biological survey was conducted, no threatened or endangered species are believed to exist in the project area. An inquiry with the US Fish and Wildlife Service (USFWS) was sent out and the following mitigative measures for potential species that may occur or transit the vicinity of the proposed project are listed below but was not received in time for the EA submission. Therefore, information Information on flora and fauna near the Site was attained from the AIS and an EA that was completed a few miles northwest of the Site. These studies revealed that there are two federally listed species in the vicinity of the project area. The following are recommendations to avoid or minimize project impacts to listed species: Endangered Hawaiian hawk Impacts to the endangered Hawaiian Hawk could occur due to vegetation removal, as these birds are known to forage and nest in all different types of vegetation. To minimize impact to the endangered Hawaiian hawk, all trees to be cut would be inspected to ensure that no Hawaiian hawk nests are present. Endangered Hawaiian hoary bat Impacts to the endangered Hawaiian hoary bat could occur due to vegetation removal, as they are known to forage in all types of vegetation and pup in trees that are 15 feet or taller. To avoid and minimize impacts to the endangered Hawaiian hoary bat, it is recommended that wooded plants greater than 15 feet tall during the bat birthing and pup rearing season (June 1 through September 15) not be disturbed, removed, or trimmed. It is also recommended that barbed wire fencing should not be used, as they are known to entangle the bats. 58 A “Biosecurity Protocol – Hawaiian Island (July 2018)” was included as information to prevent the spread of harmful invasive species. This document is presented in Appendix A, Exhibit 17. Endangered Hawaiian hoary bat The Hawaiian hoary bat roosts in both exotic and native woody vegetation across all islands and will leave young unattended in trees and shrubs when they forage. If trees or shrubs 15 feet or taller are cleared during the pupping season, there is a risk that young bats could inadvertently be harmed or killed since they are too young to fly or may not move away. Additionally, Hawaiian hoary bats forage for insects from as low as 3 feet to higher than 500 feet above the ground and can become entangled in barbed wire used for fencing. To avoid and minimize impacts to the endangered Hawaiian hoary bat, the USFWS recommend that projects incorporate the following applicable measures into the project description: • Do not disturb, remove, or trim woody plants greater than 15 feet tall during the bat birthing and pup rearing season (June 1 through September 15). • Do not use barbed wire for fencing. Endangered Nene Nene are found on the islands of Hawaii, Maui, Molokai, and Kauai predominately, with a small population on Oahu. They are observed in a variety of habitats, but prefer open areas, such as pastures, golf courses, wetlands, natural grasslands and shrublands, and lava flows. Threats to the species include introduced mammalian and avian predators, wind facilities, and vehicle strikes. To avoid and minimize potential project impacts to nene, the USFWS recommend that projects incorporate the following applicable measures into the project description: • Do not approach, feed, or disturb nene. • If nene are observed loafing or foraging within the project area during the breeding season (September through April), have a biologist familiar with the nesting behavior of nene survey for nests in and around the project area prior to the resumption of any work. Repeat surveys after any subsequent delay of work of 3 or more days (during which the birds may attempt to nest). • Cease all work immediately and contact the Service for further guidance if a nest is discovered within a radius of 150 feet of proposed work, or a previously undiscovered nest is found within said radius after work begins. • In areas where nene are known to be present, post and implement reduced speed limits, and inform project personnel and contractors about the presence of endangered species on-site. Endangered Hawaiian petrel, Threatened Newell’s Shearwater, and Endangered Band-rumped storm-petrel Newell’s shearwaters are found in the highest densities on Kauai with lower densities on all of the other islands, except Lanai. Hawaiian Petrel populations are greatest on Maui, Lanai, and Kauai 59 with lower densities on Hawaii and Molokai. Band-rumped storm-petrels are found in low densities throughout the islands. All islands may experience overflight at night. For all projects, Hawaiian seabirds may traverse the project area at night during the breeding, nesting and fledging seasons (March 1 to December 15). Outdoor lighting could result in seabird disorientation, fallout, and injury or mortality. Seabirds are attracted to lights and after circling the lights they may become exhausted and collide with nearby wires, buildings, or other structures or they may land on the ground. Downed seabirds are subject to increased mortality due to collision with automobiles, starvation, and predation by dogs, cats, and other predators. Young birds (fledglings) traversing the project area between September 15 and December 15, in their first flights from their mountain nests to the sea, are particularly vulnerable. To avoid and minimize potential project impacts to seabirds, the USFWS recommend that projects incorporate the following applicable measures into the project description: • Fully shield all outdoor lights so the bulb can only be seen from below bulb height and only use when necessary. • Install automatic motion sensor switches and controls on all outdoor lights or turn off lights when human activity is not occurring in the lighted area. • Avoid nighttime construction during the seabird fledging period, September 15 through December 15. Endangered Blackburn’s sphinx moth The Blackburn’s sphinx moth may be in the vicinity of the proposed project area. Adult moths feed on nectar from native plants, including beach morning glory (Ipomoea pes-caprae), iliee (Plumbago zeylanica), and maiapilo (Capparis sandwichiana); larvae feed upon non-native tree tobacco (Nicotiana glauca) and native aiea (Nothocestrum sp.). To pupate, the larvae burrow into the soil and can remain in a state of torpor for up to a year (or more) before emerging from the soil. Soil disturbance can result in death of the pupae. We offer the following survey recommendations to assess whether the Blackburn’s sphinx moth is within the project area: • A biologist familiar with the species should survey areas of proposed activities for Blackburn’s sphinx moth and its larval host plant tree tobacco prior to work initiation. o Surveys should be conducted within 4-6 weeks prior to construction. o Surveys should include searches for eggs, larvae, and signs of larval feeding (chewed stems, frass, or leaf damage). • If no Blackburn’s sphinx moth are found on the tree tobacco during surveys, it is imperative that measures be taken to avoid attraction of Blackburn’s sphinx moth to the project location and prohibit additional tree tobacco from entering the site. Tree tobacco can grow greater than 3 feet tall in approximately 6 weeks. If it grows over 3 feet, the plants may become a host plant for Blackburn’s sphinx moth. We therefore recommend that you: o Remove any existing tree tobacco less than 3 feet tall. 60 o Monitor the site every 4-6 weeks for new tree tobacco growth before, during and after the proposed ground-disturbing activity and remove all tree tobacco that resprouts before it reaches 3 feet in height. § Monitoring for tree tobacco can be completed by any staff, such as groundskeeper or regular maintenance crew, provided with picture placards of tree tobacco at different life stages. o Soil around tree tobacco smaller than 3 feet may be disturbed after removal. • If tree tobacco is more than 3 feet in height, it is possible that the signs of Blackburn’s sphinx moth foraging have been shed and pupating larvae may be in the ground in the area beneath the plant(s). Therefore, if there are no signs of Blackburn’s sphinx moth on tree tobacco more than 3 feet in height, the above- ground portion of the plant(s) may be cut off and removed and the following measures implemented to minimize the potential for future use of the plant by Blackburn’s sphinx moth and potential impact to a pupae that may already be in the soil near the plant: o Treat stems with herbicide or re-trim to prevent leaf growth and potential use by Blackburn’s sphinx moth. o A 33-ft (10-m) buffer should be established around the plant’s location for three months assuming a heavy rain event occurs. If no heavy rains occur, then this period should be extended for six months until rains do occur. After this period, the plant roots may be removed and the soil disturbed. • If additional Blackburn’s sphinx moth eggs or larvae are found, notify the Service biologist … to coordinate on avoiding take. Hawaiian waterbirds Hawaiian waterbirds are currently found in a variety of wetland habitats including freshwater marshes and ponds, coastal estuaries and ponds, artificial reservoirs, Colocasia esculenta (kalo or taro) loʻi or patches, irrigation ditches, sewage treatment ponds. Hawaiian stilts may also be found wherever ephemeral or persistent standing water may occur. Threats to these species include nonnative predators, habitat loss, and habitat degradation. Based on the project details provided, your project may result in the creation of standing water or open water that could attract Hawaiian waterbirds to the project site. In particular, the Hawaiian stilt is known to nest in sub-optimal locations (e.g., any ponding water), if water is present. Hawaiian waterbirds attracted to sub-optimal habitat may suffer adverse impacts, such as predation and reduced reproductive success, and thus the project may create an attractive nuisance. Therefore, we recommend you work with our office during project planning so that we may assist you in developing measures to avoid impacts to listed species (e.g., fencing, vegetation control, predator management). To avoid and minimize potential project impacts to Hawaiian waterbirds we recommend you incorporate the following applicable measures into your project plan: • In areas where waterbirds are known to be present, post and implement reduced speed limits, and inform project personnel and contractors about the presence of endangered species on-site. • If water resources are located within or adjacent to the project site, incorporate applicable best management practices regarding work in aquatic environments into the project design (see enclosed Aquatic Best Management Practices). 61 • Have a biological monitor that is familiar with the species’ biology conduct Hawaiian waterbird nest surveys where appropriate habitat occurs within the vicinity of the proposed project site prior to project initiation. Repeat surveys again within 3 days of project initiation and after any subsequent delay of work of 3 or more days (during which the birds may attempt to nest). If a nest or active brood is found: o Contact the Service within 48 hours for further guidance. o Establish and maintain a 100-ft buffer around all active nests and/or broods until the chicks have fledged. Do not conduct potentially disruptive activities or habitat alteration within this buffer. o Have a biological monitor that is familiar with the species’ biology present on the project site during all construction or earth moving activities until the chicks fledge to ensure that Hawaiian waterbirds and nests are not adversely impacted. Hawaiian hawk The Hawaiian hawk was recently federally delisted but remains a listed species under Hawaiʻi State law. The Hawaiian hawk is known to occur across a broad range of forest habitats throughout the island of Hawaiʻi. Loud, irregular and unpredictable activities, such as using heavy equipment or building a structure, near an endangered Hawaiian hawk nest may cause nest failure. Harassment of Hawaiian hawk nesting sites can alter feeding and breeding patterns or result in nest or chick abandonment. Nest disturbance can also increase exposure of chicks and juveniles to inclement weather or predators. To avoid and minimize impacts to Hawaiian hawks we recommend you incorporate the following applicable measures into your project plan: • If work must be conducted between March 1 through September 30, during the Hawaiian hawk breeding season, have a biologist familiar with the species conduct a nest search of the project footprint and surrounding areas immediately prior to the start of construction activities. o Pre-disturbance surveys for Hawaiian hawks are only valid for 14 days. If disturbance for the specific location does not occur within 14 days of the survey, conduct another survey. • Clearing of vegetation or construction activities should not occur within 1,600 ft of any active Hawaiian hawk nest during the breeding season until the young have fledged. • Regardless of the time of year, avoid trimming or cutting trees containing a hawk nest, as nests may be re-used during consecutive breeding seasons. Other Measures to Reduce Mortality of Listed Animal Species Additional measures for housing developments common to all listed animal species that will reduce mortality or predation include the following: • Post and enforce low speed limits to reduce vehicle collisions with wildlife. • Require all pets, including cats and dogs, to be on leash at all times outside. • Require garbage cans with lids to reduce populations of rats and mongoose, which are invasive species and prey upon native and endangered species. • Provide signage instructing residents and visitors to avoid approaching, feeding, or disturbing wildlife. Recommendations provided by the State of Hawaii Department of Land and Natural Resources, Division of Forestry and Wildlife include: 62 ● stop work of all activities within 100 feet (30 meters), ● do not approach the bird, ● work may continue if the bird leaves of its own accord, ● if a nest is discovered, to contact the Division of Forestry and Wildlife, and ● minimizing predator (cat, rodent, mongoose) presence by o removal of the predators, and/or o providing covered trash receptacles, and/or o placing bait stations. ● Minimize disturbance during bat birthing and pup rearing season between June 1 through September 15 or not disturbing woody plants greater than 15 feet tall without consultation with the Division of Forestry and Wildlife. ● For nighttime lighting that might be required, DOFAW recommends that all lights be fully shielded to minimize impacts. Nighttime work that requires outdoor lighting should be avoided during the seabird fledging season from September 15 through December 15. ● The Division of Forestry and Wildlife also recommends using native plant species for landscaping and not using invasive plant species. ● In addition, minimizing the movement of plant or soil material between worksites, such as in fill, to reduce the spread of invasive fungal pathogens, vertebrate and invertebrate pests (e.g. Little Fire Ants), or invasive plant parts that could harm native species and ecosystems. Mitigative measures above will be implemented during the proposed project. In addition, the project workers will be educated on identification of the above species and will stop work to determine the best course of action for completion. Biological consultation will be performed if any of the above species are observed at the property. 5.1.5 Wetlands Alternative 1 No significant adverse impacts to wetlands are anticipated by implementing Alternative I, as the Site would remain undeveloped Alternative II No significant adverse impacts are anticipated under Alternative II. Alternative II, the Proposed Action, would not result in loss or destruction of existing wetland resources as there are no designated wetlands near the site. 5.1.6 Water Resources Alternative I 63 No significant adverse impacts to groundwater or surface water would result under Alternative I, the no action alternative. Site conditions would remain the same. Alternative II No significant adverse impacts are anticipated to groundwater resources assuming implementation of Alternative II, the Proposed Action. Hazardous substances that could adversely affect groundwater are not likely to be introduced or released into the soil given the proposed use of the Site as housing. No significant impact to surface water near the Site is anticipated because of construction operations associated with Alternative II as there is no streams or surface water bodies at the Site. Potable water calculations are being determined at this time with the finalization of fixture types/counts through the building design process. However, potable water estimates based on the unit count (64 units) and unit type (2, 3, and 4 bedrooms) were used by Imata & Associates, Inc. The amount of water determined to be necessary for the development was estimated at 29,890 gallons per day. An existing water commitment expired on January 31, 2016 for a previous proposed development for the Site. Water is available from an existing eight (8) inch waterline within Kapiolani Street fronting TMK (3) 2-4-025:080. There are no existing services to the subject parcels. The Hawaii County Department of Water Supply can issue a water commitment if the conditions and standards are met and an application is submitted. Waste water calculations are being determined at this time with the finalization of fixture types/counts through the building design process. Waste water estimates based on the unit count (64 units) and unit type (2, 3, and 4 bedroom) were used by Imata & Associates, Inc. The amount of waste water generated by the development was estimated at 12,544 gallons per day. The Site is not located on a Sole-Source aquifer. No significant impact to surface water near the Site is anticipated as a result of construction or operations associated with Alternative II as there are no streams or surface water bodies at the Site. There are no designated wild and scenic rivers in the State of Hawaii. An NPDES permit may need to be obtained for point source water pollutant discharges into State Surface waters (HAR, Chapter 11-55). Point source means any discernible, confined, and discrete conveyance from which pollutants are or may be discharged. An onsite drainage system will be constructed to accommodate runoff generated by a 50-year storm for one (1) hour for a fully developed site. This system will divert site waters to dry wells installed on the property. The drainage and dry wells are intended to prevent significant flooding and migration off property of site waters. Onsite and Offsite drainage were studied. Reports were provided to the Engineering Division for review and approval. The studies found that proposed culvert conditions would decrease adverse impacts or additional ponding. The installation of drywells would decrease runoff from the site compared to existing conditions. The system will be constructed in accordance with the County rules for the design of storm drainage facilities and to ensure that there are no adverse impacts to adjacent and downtown stream properties. 64 5.1.7 Climate and Air Quality Alternative I Alternative I would not have a significant adverse impact to air quality as the existing conditions would remain unchanged. Alternative II Under Alternative II, potentially significant adverse impacts to air quality from earth moving and excavation activities during construction activities (i.e., fugitive dust emissions) are anticipated. Temporary increases in traffic during the construction phase of Alternative II are also anticipated to increase emissions from combustion as well as increase fugitive dust. Adequate dust control measures, in compliance with Section 11-60. 1-33, “Fugitive Dust”, of HAR will be implemented during all phases of construction. A best management practices (i.e., watering of roads and trenches during project activities, use of a dust screen which surrounds the project area) would reduce any impacts to less than significant. Once project construction is complete, impacts to air quality would not be significant. Due to proximity of airport to the project site location; fumes, odors, and smoke may result from aircraft flight operations. Prospective occupants will be made aware of the potential for these to occur. 5.1.8 Noise Alternative I No significant adverse impacts to noise are expected to occur under Alternative I. Site conditions would remain unchanged. Alternative II No significant noise disturbance is anticipated, as the properties immediately surrounding the Site are undeveloped. HDOH Administrative Rules, Title 11, Chapter 46, “Community Noise Control” regulations and CFR 24 CFR Subpart B – Noise Abatement and Control will be complied with for the duration of the project. Construction activities at the Site may increase noise levels, then a noise permit will be obtained. No industrial processes or activities that would contribute to a significant adverse impact to the noise environment are planned under Alternative II. Once the project is completed, no significant increases in noise are anticipated. While overall noise levels would increase due to a rise in area population, increases would only be observed as modest increases in vehicular traffic, mechanical noise (i.e. air conditioning) and voice load. No industrial processes or activities that would contribute to a significant adverse impact of the noise environment are planned under Alternative II. 65 Due to proximity of airport to the project site location; excessive single event noise may result from aircraft flight operations. Prospective occupants will be made aware of the potential for this to occur. 5.1.9 Solid Waste Alternative I No significant adverse impacts to solid waste are expected to occur under Alternative I. Site conditions would remain unchanged. Alternative II Construction activities at the Site will increase solid waste and construction wastes. Waste generated by site preparation will primarily consist of vegetation, rocks, and debris from clearing, grubbing, and grading. Very little demolition material is expected, as the site is essentially vacant. These wastes will be minimized by proper planning of building materials and recycling efforts. A solid waste management plan will be coordinated with the County’s Solid Waste Division for the disposal of onsite and construction-related waste material. Once the project is completed, solid waste generation will be increased over the current conditions. However, West Hawaii Sanitary landfill South Hilo Sanitary landfill will have adequate capacity to accommodate waste generated from the proposed project. Future planning for waste on the island of Hawaii is being evaluated for the long-term. This increase in waste generation would not contribute to a significant adverse impact under Alternative II. There are three facilities nearby that manage solid waste. In addition, the proposed project will support programs that encourage waste reduction, recycling, and other green/environmentally friendly practice. 5.1.10 Hazardous Waste Alternative I No significant adverse impacts to solid waste are expected to occur under Alternative I. Site conditions would remain unchanged. Alternative II Construction activities at the Site will increase hazardous wastes. These wastes can be minimized by pre-construction proper planning. Existing potentially hazardous wastes would be removed during construction activities. Once the project is completed, household hazardous waste (e.g., batteries, paints, cleaners, etc.) generation will be increased over the current conditions. This increase in waste generation would not contribute to a significant adverse impact under Alternative II. There are three facilities nearby that manage solid waste. 66 5.2 Social Environment 5.2.1 Land Use Considerations and Zoning Alternative I Alternative I would have a direct adverse impact to land use and zoning. The Site is currently undeveloped but is zoned RM 1.5 Multi-Family Dwelling Units. The No Action Alternative would not be utilizing the land to its fullest potential. Alternative II Alternative II would have a significant beneficial impact on land use and zoning. Consistency with its zoning designation would make available additional rental housing for low income families. 5.2.2 Archaeological and Cultural Considerations Alternative I No significant adverse impacts are anticipated under Alternative I. Site conditions would remain the same. Alternative II Alternative II would involve ground disturbing activities that may adversely impact historical and archaeological resources. However, these impacts are considered unlikely. The area surrounding the Site has no history of archeological resources. The archeological surveys conducted in 2006 and 2019 did not reveal any cultural, historic, or natural resources, or practices and beliefs concerning the project area. A Cultural Impact Assessment in 2019 determined that though there have been numerous discoveries of archaeological sites in the Hilo area, previous archaeological studies conducted in the project area revealed no traditional Hawaiian archaeological sites were present. The reconnaissance survey determined that no rock outcrops that could signal the presence of caves were encountered. Because of an absence of archaeological sites in the project area, it is recommended that a determination of “no historic properties affected” be considered for the proposed Kaiaulu O Kapiolani Housing Development Project. SHPD concurred with the “no historic properties affected” determination. If human osteological remains or a potential archaeological site are uncovered during construction activities, mitigation measures will be implemented. Specifically, site work will cease and the Hawaii State Historic Preservation Division (SHPD) would be contacted in compliance with Chapter 6E of the HRS. These mitigation measures will be implemented. These mitigation measures will ensure no loss or destruction of historic and archaeological resources, avoid adverse impacts to potential sites, and ensure compliance with State laws and regulations. Implementation 67 of mitigation measures would reduce any potential impacts associated with Alternative II to less than significant. 5.2.3 Transportation Alternative I No significant adverse impacts are anticipated under Alternative I. Site conditions would remain the same. Alternative II No significant adverse impacts are anticipated under Alternative II. The Site is located in an area that serves mostly local traffic and is surrounded by unsignalized intersections. North of the Site is the County of Hawaii Police Department and a shopping center. Directly east of the Site is Saint Joseph’s School, and further west of the site is Hilo Elementary and Hilo High School. South and west of the Site is residential area. The primary traffic affected would be the nearby schools. However, traffic in the area is believed to increase on its own in the near future due to the construction of more shops and businesses near the Site. Traffic at these areas operates at a LOS of C or better. Projected traffic in the year 2021 showed a slightly worsening of traffic conditions operating at a LOS of D or better during the PM peak hour. Both Site access intersections are anticipated to operate with all movements at LOS B or better during both peak hours. Based on the TIAR projections, the proposed project’s 64 multi-family residential units will generate a total of 32 vehicular trips during the AM peak hours of traffic, and 40 vehicular trips during the PM peak hours of traffic. The TIAR did not provide projections during the construction period for the Site. While there are no significant adverse impacts anticipated under Alternative II for the airport, the airport may pose adverse impacts for the Site. The Site is located outside the 55 Day-Night Average Sound Levels area for the Hilo International Airport. However, residents should be aware of the proximity of the airport and potential single event noise from aircraft operations. The use of PV (normally used for common areas and offices) will also not be allowed for the Site due to its proximity to the airport, which could mean higher electricity costs for the project owner. 5.2.4 Social Factors and Community Identity Alternative I Alternative I would have no impact to the social and community identity. Site conditions would remain unchanged. Alternative II Construction of housing for low income households is expected to have a significant beneficial impact on the social and community identity of the area. If the proposed project is not completed, 68 the property would remain vacant and unused for an undetermined amount of time. The proposed project will add residential units to the district and assist families who would otherwise have few, if any, options for affordable housing in the area. Also, the project will incorporate a non-profit service that coordinates with community-based organizations to deliver programs and services that address health, education, employment, childcare, financial fitness and safety. 5.2.5 Recreational and Public Facilities Alternative I No significant impacts are anticipated under Alternative I. Site conditions would remain unchanged. Alternative II Alternative II is expected to have no significant adverse impact on the recreational and public facilities on the island. The proposed development plans on having an onsite playground, with open areas and spaces to gather, including a picnic area. This is in addition to the onsite community meeting room that will be constructed. The construction of the Site is not expected to impact nearby existing recreational facilities, such as golf courses, parks, and beaches. 5.2.6 Visual and Aesthetic Resources Alternative I There would be no significant adverse impact on the visual resources and aesthetics in or around the project area anticipated with Alternative I, as this alternative shall not bring about any changes in the existing conditions. Alternative II Significant adverse impacts to visual resources are not expected under Alternative II. Construction of the new housing complex will not significantly impact the view of adjacent buildings, as the buildings will only be two stories tall, and the area is all relatively flat. Significant public views will also not be affected. The project location is set back from the main street and would not obstruct the view. 5.2.7 Infrastructure Systems and Utilities Alternative I No significant adverse impacts are anticipated under Alternative I. Site conditions would remain unchanged. Alternative II 69 Alternative II is expected to have minimal impact on the infrastructure and utilities in and around the project area. Water, sewer, and electricity services are expected to be supplied by the same service providers used within the area. The addition of the 64-unit dwellings will not tax the current supply. An onsite drainage system, constructed in accordance with the County rules for the design of storm drainage facilities, will be constructed to accommodate generated runoff. Waste diversion will be implemented during the proposed project construction and operation. In addition, the proposed project will have a Leadership in Energy and Environmental Design (LEED) consultant throughout our design and construction of the project to minimize waste and optimize utilization of resources. There is currently no sewer main on the Site. The closest sewer main is located on Kukuau Street, which the developer would have to pump sewer up to an elevation and allow it to gravity into the Kukuau Street collector. Students living in the proposed project will attend Hilo Elementary, Hilo Intermediate, and Hilo High Schools. Both Hilo Elementary and Intermediate schools have capacity, while Hilo High is over capacity. The number of students that will be generated by the complex is unknown. An inquiry was sent to DOE for an approximate number of students that would be generated by this proposed project, but there has been no response to this inquiry yet. Based on the types of units proposed, it is estimated up to 100 children of varying ages maybe residing at the Site. Hilo Elementary and Hilo Intermediate should have minimal impacts as there is capacity at those locations. Hilo High is reported at over capacity which will be further strained with the introduction of additional students. Impacts to educational facilities are anticipated, the developer will work with the Hawai'i Department of Education (DOE) to address and mitigate project impacts. 5.3 Cumulative Impacts Cumulative effects are not anticipated as a result of implementing Alternatives I or II. The actions themselves do not involve a commitment to larger actions. The alternatives will likely not result in substantial secondary impacts, such as population changes or effects on public facilities. Alternative I will effect no change to the project area, Alternative II involves the construction of a 64-unit housing facility. Population changes or effects on public facilities would be minimal. The addition of an estimated 180 individuals would minimally add to the existing population of 43,263 for the area (0.4% increase in the population). The change in population and demand for public facilities would be readily met by existing infrastructure. 70 SECTION 6 RELATIONSHIP TO PLANS, POLICIES, AND CONTROLS The purpose of Section 6 is to identify plans and policies that may be applicable to this project and summarize the relationship of the plans and policies to project actions. Additionally, the intent is to revisit these plans and policies to qualify any significant effects from actions proposed in this EA. 6.1 State and County Land Use Plans and Policies 6.1.1 State Land Use Chapter 205, Hawaii Revised Statues, relating to the Land Use Commission (LUC), establishes four (4) major land use districts in which all lands in the state are placed.

The Kaiaulu O Kapiolani housing development is consistent with the State Housing Functional Plan: State Housing Functional Plan 2017 Objective A: Increase and sustain the supply of permanent rental housing that is affordable and accessible to Hawaii residents, particularly those with incomes at or below 60% AMI. 6.1.4 Hilo Community Development Plan The County of Hawaii General Plan section 15.1 (February 2005, as amended) calls for the preparation of community development plans (CDP) “to translate the broad General Plan statements to specific actions as they apply to specific geographical areas.” The General Plan requires CDPs be adopted as an “ordinance”, giving the plans force of law. This is a long-term plan with a planning horizon to year 2020, consistent with the General Plan. The Hilo CDP was prepared by the Hilo Community with the assistance of The County of Hawaii Planning Department and Townscape, Inc. It was adopted in 1975. The Kaiaulu O Kapiolani Proposed Housing Development is in accordance with the following CDP Plan objectives: ● Planning and development of future land use taking into consideration environmental assets such as vegetation, important views, attractive rivers, interesting shoreline and protected bay, and environmental constraints, such as recurring tsunamis, earthquakes, flooding and volcanic activity. ● Development of residential areas of various densities distributed on the basis of their relationship to the city center, transportation facilities and other infrastructure and with sufficient expansion acreage for an approximate ten-year period, and with alternative or additional expansion areas indicated to provide flexibility to the County and developers. ● Identification of housing improvements needed by planning area and designation of priority improvement areas. 6.2 Necessary Permits and Approvals The following approvals may be required for the implementation of the project. All approvals will be obtained in accordance with approving agency guidelines. 6.2.1 State of Hawaii (a) Chapter 343, HRS, environmental review (b) Department of Health 73 ● Chapter 46, HAR – noise permit, as required. ● Chapter 11-23, HAR – Underground Injection Control permit for the use of drainage injection wells to handle discharges of storm water runoff. ● Chapter 11-55, HAR – National Pollutant Discharge Elimination System permit for construction stormwater discharges.

Compliance procedures are listed in Appendix D. • Coastal Barrier Resources • Coastal Zone Management • Sole Source Aquifers • Endangered Species • Explosives and Hazards • Environmental Justice 74 SECTION 7 FINDINGS AND REASONS SUPPORTING AGENCY DETERMINATION In accordance with the provisions set forth in Chapter 343, HRS, this EA has preliminarily determined that the project would not have significant adverse impacts on the environment. As such, a Finding of No Significant Impact (FONSI) is anticipated for the Proposed Action. Anticipated impacts will be temporary and will not adversely impact the environmental quality of the area. A review of the “Significance Criteria” used as a basis for the above determination is presented below. An action is determined to have a significant impact on the environment if it meets any one of the thirteen (13) criteria. (1) Involves an irrevocable commitment to loss or destruction of any natural or cultural resource; Alternative II would not cause loss or destruction of any natural or cultural resources. The area around the Site is already developed. Archaeological surveys concluded that there would be “no historic properties affected”. Furthermore, the biological survey revealed that there were no threatened or endangered plants or animals on the Site. (2) Curtails the range of beneficial uses of the environment; Alternative II will not curtail the range of beneficial uses of the environment. In fact, the implementation of the Proposed Action would increase beneficial uses of the Site by providing affordable housing in an otherwise underutilized area. (3) Conflicts with the State’s long-term environmental policies or goals and guidelines as expressed in Chapter 344, HRS; and any revisions thereof and amendments thereto, court decisions, or executive orders; Alternative II will be in conformance with the Chapter 344, HRS, State Environmental Policy, to enhance the quality of life. The Proposed Action will make available much needed housing for low income households. This is in compliance with the residential zoning status. (4) Substantially affects the economic welfare, social welfare, and cultural practices of the community or State; Alternative II would have beneficial effects to the economic and social welfare of the community and State. The construction phase of the proposed alternatives would create jobs, and the families who occupy the development will generate income for local businesses. The operation of the proposed alternative would assist low income families who may not otherwise receive assistance and offer those families better quality of life. Cultural practices would not be affected. A Cultural Impact Assessment conducted in October 2019 did not reveal any cultural resources, practices and beliefs concerning the project area. SHPD has concurred with the “no historic properties affected” determination. 75 (5) Substantially affects public health; Alternative II will not have significant effects on public health. The Proposed Action would provide safe and sanitary housing within a suitable living environment, which would ensure a better standard of living. (6) Involves substantial secondary impacts, such as population changes or effects on public facilities; Alternative II will likely not result in substantial secondary impacts, such as population changes or effects on public facilities. The Proposed Action involves the construction of a 64-unit apartment complex. Population changes or effects on public facilities would be minimal. The addition of an estimated 180 individuals would minimally add to the existing population of 43,263 for the area (0.4 % increase in population). The change in population and demand for public facilities would be readily met by existing infrastructure. The addition of school aged children residing at the Site would have minimal impact to Hilo Elementary and Hilo Intermediate Schools. Impacts to Hilo High School are anticipated as the school is over capacity. The developer will work with the Hawai'i DOE to address and mitigate project impacts (7) Involves a substantial degradation of environmental quality; Alternative II is not likely to result in a substantial degradation of environmental quality. Assessment of impacts associated with the Proposed Action have been minimal. (8) Is individually limited but cumulatively has considerable effect on the environment, or involves a commitment for larger actions; Cumulative effects are not anticipated as a result of implementing alternative II. The Proposed Action does not involve a commitment to larger actions. Much of the land near the Site is undeveloped, and the construction of 64 units will have minimal impact to the environment. (9) Substantially affects a rare, threatened, or endangered species, or its habitat; Alternative II is not anticipated to have substantial effects on rare, threatened, or endangered species, or any critical habitat. USFWS identified eight (8) five (5) federally listed species in the vicinity of the project area. There is one (1) State listed species identified. Mitigation measures will be employed as to avoid or minimize any impacts to rare, threatened, or endangered species during and post- construction. There is little potential for encountering such resources as there are no rare, threatened, or endangered species or critical habitats at the Site. (10) Detrimentally affects air or water quality or ambient noise levels; No significant impacts on the area’s long-term air or ambient noise environments are anticipated to result from Alternative II. During the proposed project these parameters will be monitored. Any exceedances in local, state, or federal rules or 76 regulations will be mitigated to minimize their effects to the area. Water quality impacts are not anticipated and do not require mitigation measures. (11) Affects or is likely to suffer damage by being in an environmentally sensitive area such as a flood plain, tsunami zone, beach, erosion-prone area, geologically hazardous land, estuary, freshwater, or coastal water The Site is not located in an environmentally sensitive area, such as a flood plain, tsunami zone, beach, erosion-prone area. Water quality impacts are not anticipated and do not require mitigation measures. (12) Substantially affects scenic vistas and view planes identified in county or state plans or studies; or, Alternative II will not affect the visual aesthetics of the areas identified in the county or state plans and studies. Coastal view planes will not be impacted by the Site. (13) Requires substantial energy consumption. Alternative II would not require substantial energy consumption. The addition of about 180 individuals would minimally add to the existing population of 43,263 for the area (0.4 % increase in population). The change in population and demand for energy would be readily met by existing infrastructure. In addition, energy efficient appliances will be incorporated into the project design. In summary, the proposed project will provide 64 units of much needed affordable family rental housing in Hilo. Based on the foregoing analysis, the proposed action is not anticipated to result in any significant adverse impacts. A FONSI has been determined is anticipated for the proposed project. 77 THIS PAGE INTENTIONALLY LEFT BLANK. 78 SECTION 8 REFERENCES Buchannan-Banks, J.M. 1993a.

D e v e l o p m e n t U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development 451 Seventh Street, SW Washington, DC 20410 www.hud.gov espanol.hud.gov Environmental Assessment Determinations and Compliance Findings for HUD-assisted Projects 24 CFR Part 58 Project Information Project Name: Kaiaulu O Kapiolani Proposed Housing Development Responsible Entity: County of Hawaii, Mayor Grant Recipient: A0705 Hilo, LP State/Local Identifier: Hilo, Hawaii (Hawaii Island) Preparer: Environmental Risk Analysis, LLC Certifying Officer Name and Title: Grant Recipient (if different than Responsible Entity): Consultant (if applicable): Direct Comments to: Environmental Risk Analysis LLC 905A Makahiki Way Honolulu, Hawaii 96826 Project Location: The proposed development site is located in the state of Hawaii, at property tax map keys (TMKs) (3) 2-4-025:048,053,080. The Site is located on Kapiolani Street between Kukuau Street and Hualalai Street. It encompasses 5.05 acres of land situated in Hilo on the east side of the island of Hawaii. This location is currently zoned for apartments. Description of Proposed Project [24 CFR 50.12 & 58.32; 40 CFR 1508.25]: A0705 Hilo, L.P. is proposing to develop an affordable rental complex of 64 units in Hilo, consisting of 32 two- bedroom units, 24 three-bedroom units, and 8 four-bedroom units. The project will consist of 64 newly-constructed units, comprised of 2-bedroom, 3-bedroom, and 4-bedroom units in two-story apartment buildings. In addition to the residential buildings there will also be a community center, laundry facilities, tot lot, community gardens, and open spaces. The project anticipates providing at least 1.5 parking stalls per residential unit. The project does not anticipate the use of federal funds for infrastructure improvements. The objective of this project is to produce an affordable rental development, while utilizing the least amount of State of Hawaii resources. These apartments will target low income households earning 60 percent or less of the Area Median Income (AMI) for the County of Hawai‘i. These units will address the dire need for affordable rentals for the households in this income bracket, many of whom are at risk of becoming homeless due to the severe housing shortage. The HHFDC Consolidated Plan outlines the planned project schedule. The construction start date is proposed to be in first quarter 2022. The last building by fourth quarter 2023. Statement of Purpose and Need for the Proposal [40 CFR 1508.9(b)]: The purpose of the Proposed Action is to develop an affordable rental development, while utilizing the least amount of State of Hawaii resources. These units will address the dire need for affordable housing on the island of Hawaii, for many residents who are at risk of becoming homeless due to the severe housing shortage. The Office of the Governor of Hawaii has expressed a specific need to create additional affordable housing for the very low income to moderate income households. The Hawaii State Legislature has also recognized this need by passing legislation that has increased monies to funds such as the Rental Housing Trust Fund for financing to build affordable rental housing units. The Department of Business, Economic Development & tourism (DBEDT) projects a population increase in Hawaii County of 29% by 2025. This would result in a total demand of between 19,600 and 20,100 additional housing units for Hawaii County by 2025 (DBEDT, 2015). In May 2015, the HHFDC adopted the Consolidated Plan for funding through the HOME Investment Partnership Program (HOME), the Housing Opportunities for persons with AIDS Program (HOPWA), and the Emergency Solutions Grant Program (ESG). The application to HUD will fund the Counties of Maui, Hawaii, and Kauai (HHFDC, Consolidated Plan Information Packet). The County of Hawaii 2020-2024 Consolidated Plan noted that housing demand would increase and a total of 13,300 units would be needed in the years 2020 through 2025. The proposed project will directly address goals and priorities identified in the County of Hawaii’s Consolidated Plan for Program Years 2020 through 2024. The proposed project directly addresses the goal to “construct 3 new affordable rental projects for extremely low, low and moderate income households” and the high priorities of “housing” and “infrastructure Improvements.” The proposed project will serve tenants earning up to 30%, 40%, 50%, and 60% of area median income, will create new housing units, and will improve a drainage area within a County easement on the property. Existing Conditions and Trends [24 CFR 58.40(a)]: The property is currently unpaved and undeveloped with heavy wooded vegetation covering the entire parcel. Surrounding the Site is developed residential area. Aerial photographs from 2013 depicts the area as it is today with a police station directly northeast of the Site. The Site is located approximately a mile away from Hilo Elementary School, Hilo High School, and several other schools. Wailoa River State Recreational Area is located less than two miles from the Site. Within two miles of the Site are several small shops. Grocery stores, drug stores, coffee shops, and restaurants. Two beachfront hotels and a golf course are located approximately two miles from the Site. If the proposed project is not completed, the property would remain vacant and unused for an undetermined amount of time. This would neither benefit the residents of the island of Hawaii nor fulfill the purpose of the land use zoning ordinance. Funding Information Estimated Total HUD Funded Amount: The total is $12,800,000 $1,500,000. However, as of today, no funding from this source has taken place. Estimated Total Project Cost (HUD and non-HUD funds) [24 CFR 58.32(d)]: The total is $53,888,000 $46,400,000. This includes STATE RHRF of $12,800,000 $1,5000.000, permanent loan of $601,297 $5,340,000, $23,505,010 $20,963,296 of private equity from the sale of federal tax credits, $8,681,693 $7,292,310 of private equity from the sale of state tax credits, and $2,300,000 $4,394 Deferred Developer Fee. This project also includes Section 8 project-based vouchers.

Air quality in the state is most affected by proximity to the volcano. Monitoring stations with communities near the volcano (Island of Hawaii) record higher levels of sulfur dioxide (SO2) and particulate matter at 2.5 microns or less (PM2.5), with regular exceedances of National Ambient Air Quality Standards (NAAQS) for SO2 and occasional exceedances of the NAAQS for PM2.5. The Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) considers the volcano a natural, uncontrollable event, therefore the state requests attainment/non-attainment determination. Excluding the exceedances due to the volcano, in 2015 the State of Hawaii was in attainment of all NAAQS. (HDOH Annual Summary 2015 Air Quality Data). The Hilo area is currently in attainment of all criteria pollutants established by the Clean Air Act, State Ambient Air Quality Standards (SAAQS, and NAAQS. Please see Exhibit 4. http://health.hawaii.gov/cab/ Coastal Zone Management Coastal Zone Management Act, sections 307(c) & (d) Yes No The Site is not located in a tsunami evacuation zone.

The ESA did not identify any American Society for Testing and Materials (ASTM) defined Recognized Environmental X X X Conditions (RECs) for the subject Site. ASTM proximity search guidelines were used to evaluate properties near the Site. There are no underground storage tanks (USTs) located on the Site, or on properties adjacent to the Site. No leaking underground storage tank (LUST) sites were located directly adjacent to the Site. A search of the HDOH UST Branch database records (dated 08/31/2018) resulted in eleven (11) sites having reported a UST release within a ½-mile radius of the Site. According to the HDOH LUST database, of the 11 LUST sites, nine (9) sites are recorded as Site Cleanup Completed and were issued a No Further Action (NFA). The LUST sites do not pose an environmental threat to the subject Site. Please see Exhibit 6. Endangered Species Endangered Species Act of 1972, particularly section 7; 50 CFR Part 402 Yes No There are no endangered or threatened species, no candidates listed as endangered or threatened species, or any critical habitat for any such species known to occur on the Site. Please see Exhibit 7. Explosive and Flammable Hazards 24 CFR Part 51 Subpart C Yes No Research regarding historical land use was conducted to determine any RECs at the Site and if the surrounding area may have impacted the Site. No RECs were found at the Site, and it is not believed that previous uses of the Site will affect surrounding areas. During previous site reconnaissance, no explosive or hazardous materials were observed. Please see Exhibit 8. Farmlands Protection Farmland Protection Policy Act of 1981, particularly sections 1504(b) and 1541; 7 CFR Part 658 Yes No The County of Hawaii, Planning Division, indicates the Site Land Use Ordinance Zoning Designation is Multi-Family Dwelling Units (RM 1.5). The Site is not located in a Special District or Special Management Area. The United States Department of Agriculture (USDA) Soil Conservation Service Classifies the soil within the 100% Keaukaha-Urban land complex. It is classified as Hydrologic Soil Group D with a typical profile consisting of highly decomposed plant material from 0 to 4 inches below ground surface (bgs), and lithic bedrock from 4 to 14 inches bgs. The soils have high runoff class, which indicates they are well drained. The depth of groundwater is more than 80 inches (USDA, 2019). Please see Exhibit 9. X X X Floodplain Management Executive Order 11988, particularly section 2(a); 24 CFR Part 55 Yes No According to FEMA FIRM Map No. 1551660736F, it was determined that the Site lies beyond the 500-year flood plain (within Flood Zone X). Please see Exhibit 10. Historic Preservation National Historic Preservation Act of 1966, particularly sections 106 and 110; 36 CFR Part 800 Yes No Two surveys were conducted of the project parcels. Nelson, Clark, and Rechtman conducted an AIS of parcels 048 and 053 in 2006 and in 2019. An AIS of parcel 080 was conducted by Glen and Suzan Escott in 2019. No evidence of prehistoric or historic sites or features was observed during the field surveys. No areas of cultural significance were identified during consultation with locals or during the literature review. SHPD has concurred with the “no historic properties affected” determination. An Archaelogical Field Inspection was conducted in September 2020 by ASM Affiliates. A 100% surface inspection was performed of the entire parcel. No lava blisters or historic properties were observed. ASM recommended a “no historic properties affected” determination for the property. Please see Exhibit 11. Noise Abatement and Control Noise Control Act of 1972, as amended by the Quiet Communities Act of 1978; 24 CFR Part 51 Subpart B Yes No The properties immediately surrounding the Site are developed. No significant noise disturbance is anticipated from nearby roadways or from Hilo International Airport. Construction activities at the Site may increase noise levels, however limiting these activities to daylight hours will help to minimize noise impacts during construction. HDOH Administrative Rules, Title 11, Chapter 46, “Community Noise Control” regulations will be complied with for the duration of the project. If noise levels exceed allowable levels, as stated in Chapter 46 rules, a noise permit will be obtained. Once the project is completed, no significant increases in noise are anticipated. While overall noise levels would increase due to a rise in area population, increases would only be observed as modest increases in vehicular traffic, mechanical noise (i.e, air conditioning) and voice load. No industrial processes or activities that would contribute to a significant adverse impact to the noise environment are anticipated. Please see Exhibit 12. X X X https://maps.bts.dot.gov/arcgis/apps/webappviewer/index.ht ml?id=a303ff5924c9474790464ccOe9d5c9fb Sole Source Aquifers Safe Drinking Water Act of 1974, as amended, particularly section 1424€; 40 CFR Part 149 Yes No The Site is not located on a sole source aquifer. The County of Hawaii Department of Water Supply provides public water service for Hilo. Water supply is from the Hilo aquifer system, which has a sustainable yield of 347 million gallons per day (MGD). The potable water calculations are being determined at this time with the finalization of fixture types/counts through the building design process. Potable water estimates based on the unit count and unit type were used by Imata and Associates Inc. They provided an estimate of 29,890 gallons per day (gpd) drinking water demand for the proposed project. There are no existing water services to the Site. An existing water commitment for a proposed development on the Site expired in June of 2016. Water is available from an 8-inch waterline within Kapiolani Street fronting parcel 080. The Hawaii County Department of Water Supply can issue a water commitment if their conditions and standards are met and an application is submitted. Please see Exhibit 13. Wetlands Protection Executive Order 11990, particularly sections 2 and 5 Yes No The U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service (USFWS) National Wetland Inventory, Wetlands Mapper (USFWS, 2018) did not identify any wetlands in the project area. Riverine features were mapped to the northwest and east of the Site. Please see Exhibit 14. ENVIRONMENTAL JUSTICE Environmental Justice Executive Order 12898 Yes No The Office of the Governor of Hawaii, Hawaii State Legislature, and HHFDC have identified a need for affordable housing in Hawaii. The proposed project involves the new construction for 64 affordably-priced multi-family subdivision housing units. There are no adverse environmental conditions affecting the Site. The development will have a positive effect on the target community, as there is a dire need for affordable housing in the State of Hawaii. Please see Exhibit 16. X X X Environmental Assessment Factors [24 CFR 58.40; Ref. 40 CFR 1508.8 & 1508.27] Recorded below is the qualitative and quantitative significance of the effects of the proposal on the character, features and resources of the project area. Each factor has been evaluated and documented, as appropriate and in proportion to its relevance to the proposed action. Verifiable source documentation has been provided and described in support of each determination, as appropriate. Credible, traceable and supportive source documentation for each authority has been provided. Where applicable, the necessary reviews or consultations have been completed and applicable permits of approvals have been obtained or noted. Citations, dates/names/titles of contacts, and page references are clear. Additional documentation is attached, as appropriate. All conditions, attenuation or mitigation measures have been clearly identified. Impact Codes: Use an impact code from the following list to make the determination of impact for each factor. (1) Minor beneficial impact (2) No impact anticipated (3) Minor Adverse Impact – May require mitigation (4) Significant or potentially significant impact requiring avoidance or modification which may require an Environmental Impact Statement Environmental Assessment Factor Impact Code Impact Evaluation LAND DEVELOPMENT Conformance with Plans / Compatible Land Use and Zoning / Scale and Urban Design 1 The Proposed Action would have a significant beneficial impact on land use and zoning. Consistency with its zoning designation would make available additional housing for low income families. Soil Suitability / Slope / Erosion / Drainage / Storm Water Runoff 3 The Proposed Action could have a potential minor adverse impact to soils because of construction activities (i.e., grubbing, grading, excavation and trenching) that disturb the earth and soils. Exposed soils are susceptible to erosion during periods of heavy rain or wind. Short-term adverse impacts would be minimalized to less than significant or avoided by implementing temporary erosion control measures during construction activities. A National Pollutant Discharge Elimination System (NPDES) permit for construction Storm Water Activities will be obtained from the HDOH. During site preparation, storm https://www.epa.gov/environmentaljustice https://www.epa.gov/environmentaljustice/environmental- justice-and-national-environmental- policy-act runoff from the community site will be controlled in compliance with the Count’s “Soil Erosion and Sediment Control Standards.” Typical mitigation measures include appropriately stockpiling materials on-site to prevent runoff and building over or establishing landscaping as early as possible on disturbed soils to minimize length of exposure. Geotechnical studies were performed on site and it was determined that surface water runoff can be sufficiently collected and drained through onsite retention pits or basins. Hazards and Nuisances including Site Safety and Noise 3 Construction activities at the Site will increase noise levels during the project. Limiting those activities that may increase noise levels to daylight hours will help to minimize noise impacts during construction. HDOH Administrative Rules, Title 11, Chapter 46, “Community Noise Control” regulations will be complied with for the duration of the project. If noise levels exceed allowable levels, stated in Chapter 46 rules, a noise permit will be obtained. Once the project is completed, no significant increases in noise are anticipated. While overall noise levels would increase due to a rise in area population, increases would only be observed as modest increases in vehicular traffic, mechanical noise (i.e. air conditioning) and voice load. No industrial processes or activities that would contribute to a significant adverse impact to the noise environment are planned under the Proposed Action. Energy Consumption 2 The Proposed Action would not require substantial energy consumption. The Kaiaulu O Kapiolani will involve the short- term commitment of fuel for equipment, vehicles, and machinery during construction activities. However, this use is not anticipated to result in a substantial consumption of energy resources. In the long-term, the community will create an additional demand for electricity. However, this demand is not deemed substantial or excessive within the context of the region’s overall energy consumption. The change in population and demand for energy would be readily met by existing infrastructure. SOCIOECONOMIC Employment and Income Patterns 1 No adverse impacts to the economy near the Site are anticipated as a result under the proposed project. The proposed renovations will result in short-term economic benefit for the construction industry. Over the long term, residents of the subdivision will contribute to the economy through the payment of sales and property taxes, as well as the consumption of goods and services from local businesses. Demographic Character Changes, Displacement 1 Construction of housing for low income households is expected to have a significant beneficial impact on the social and community identity of the area. The proposed project will add residential units to the district and assist families who would otherwise have few, if any options, for affordable housing in the area. COMMUNITY FACILITIES AND SERVICES Education and Cultural Facilities 2 The Kaiaulu O Kapiolani is located within the Hawaii School District, Hilo complex. Hilo Union, Hilo Intermediate, and Hilo High School are the schools within the Hilo complex that would service the Kaiaulu O Kapiolani community. The proposed project is not located within any of the School Impact Districts where fees are collected, though the Department of Education is reassessing whether collection of fees will be implemented in the future. Commercial Facilities 2 The Proposed Action is expected to have no impact to commercial facilities. No commercial facilities are needed for the project and there are no commercial facilities near the project area. Health Care and Social Services 2 The Proposed Action is expected to have no adverse impact on health care on the island. Hilo Medical Center is located less than 1.5 miles away. Straub Medical Center, Hilo Clinic is a little over a half mile away. Ululani Medical Center is less than 0.25 miles away. Kaiser Permanente Hilo Clinic is located approximately 2.6 miles from the project site. Kaiser Permanente provides general medical, behavioral, and optical health services. Solid Waste Disposal / Recycling 3 Construction activities at the Site will increase solid waste and construction wastes. Waste generated by site preparation will primarily consist of vegetation, rocks, and debris from clearing, grubbing, and grading. Very little demolition material is expected, as the site is essentially vacant. These wastes will be minimized by proper planning of building materials and recycling efforts. A solid waste management plan will be coordinated with the County’s Solid Waste Division for the disposal of onsite and construction-related waste material. Once the project is completed, solid waste generation will be increased over the current conditions. This increase in waste generation would not contribute to a significant adverse impact under the proposed project. Residential wastes are disposed of at West Hawaii Sanitary Landfill South Hilo Sanitary landfill, operated by waste management, located near Waikoloa to the west of the Site in Hilo. The nearest transfer station is Hilo Transfer Station. Waste Water / Sanitary Sewers 2 There are existing sewer lines along Kukuau Street and Kapiolani Street, with an existing sewer main on Kukuau Street. These sewer lines and sewer main are maintained by the County of Hawaii Wastewater Division. The waste water calculations are being determined at this time with the finalization of fixture types/counts through the building design process. Waste water estimates based on the unit count and unit type were used by Imata & Associates, Inc. Water Supply 2 The Proposed Action is expected to have no adverse impact on the public facilities on the island. Water will continue to be provided to the existing recreational and public facilities and their operations will continue as they exist today. The potable water calculations are being determined at this time with the finalization of fixture types/counts through the building design process. Potable water estimates based on the unit count and unit type were used by Imata & Associates. Public Safety – Police, Fire and Emergency Medical 2 The Proposed Action is expected to have no adverse impact on public safety on the island. Medical facilities, police and fire protection services are nearby. The Hawaii County Department has 20 stations throughout the island of Hawaii. There is one station in Hilo, “Station 1”, which is located at 466 Kinoole Street, less than a mile away from the Site. The next nearest station is “Station 2”, located at 95 Keaa Street, which is approximately 2.3 miles from the Site. The Hawaii Police Department is headquartered in Hilo, located at 349 Kapiolani Street, directly across the street from the Site. Kaiser Permanente Hilo Clinic is located approximately 2.6 miles from the project site. Kaiser Permanente provides general medical, behavioral, and optical health services. Parks, Open Space, and Recreation 2 The Proposed Action is expected to have no adverse impact on the recreational facilities on the island. The Department of Parks and Recreation operates and maintains over a dozen parks, including numerous beach parks as well as community recreational facilities and the Hilo Municipal Golf Course. There are numerous privately-owned golf courses open to the public within the Hilo and east Hawaii area. The development plans on having an outside playground with open space and areas together, such as picnic tables. This is in addition to the community center. Transportation and Accessibility 3 No significant adverse impacts are anticipated under the Proposed Action. Traffic in the area was evaluated for the intersections surrounding the project site. Traffic was evaluated on the following intersections: Kukuau Street/ Kupukupu Street (unsignalized); Kapiolani Street/ Kukuau Street (unsignalized); Kapiolani Street/ Hualalai Street (unsignalized). Traffic conditions were assessed during the peak AM and PM hours. (See Exhibit 17). Traffic at these areas operated at a LOS of C or better. Projected traffic in the year 2021 showed slightly worsening of traffic conditions operating at a LOS of D or better. During construction activities, access and traffic are anticipated to increase compared to normal Site operations. If access and traffic are impacted because of renovation activities, minimizing impact on traffic and access to less than significant levels can be accomplished by the following: 1)Mobilizing and de-mobilizing construction vehicles and equipment during non-peak traffic hours 2)Use of temporary traffic control devices, such as signage, barricades, and cones, in accordance with City and County traffic standards; and 3)If necessary, utilize off-duty police to manage traffic. NATURAL FEATURES Unique Natural Features, Water Resources 3 No significant adverse impacts are anticipated to groundwater resources assuming implementation of the Proposed Action. Hazardous substances that could adversely affect groundwater are not likely to be introduced or released into the soil given the proposed use of the Site as housing. Water system improvements will be designed and constructed in accordance with the County of Hawaii Department of Water Supply standards and requirements. Fire hydrants will be installed with a maximum spacing of 250 feet. Vegetation, Wildlife 2 No adverse impacts to flora/fauna are anticipated due to the proposed project. No threatened or endangered species, or candidates for listing as endangered or threatened species of concern, are known to exist in the project area. Other Factors 2 No adverse impacts to natural hazard vulnerability would result from the proposed project. The project area lies approximately 95 feet above mean sea level and is classified within Flood Zone X, where the risk of flooding would be minimal. Additional Studies Performed: 2006 – Archaeological Inventory Survey October 2018 – Biological Survey June 2019 – Traffic Impact Analysis Report August 2019 – Archaeological Assessment September 2020 – Archeological Field Survey Field Inspection (Date and completed by): February 10, 2019 by Max Ulloa of Environmental Risk Analysis, LLC List of Sources, Agencies and Persons Consulted [40 CFR 1508.9(b)]: Various Federal, State, and County agencies were consulted during the preparation of the draft environmental assessment. County of Hawaii Office of Housing and Community Development – 2018 The project was presented to representatives of the County of Hawaii Office of Housing and Community, including Housing Administrator Mr. Neil Gyotoku. List of Permits Obtained: The following approvals may be required for the implementation of the project. All approvals will be obtained in accordance with approving agency guidelines. 6.2.1 State of Hawaii (a) Chapter 343, Hawaii Revised Statutes (HRS), environmental review (b) Department of Health • Chapter 46, Hawaii Administrative Rules (HAR) – noise permit, as required • Chapter 11-55, HAR – National Pollutant Discharge Elimination System permit for construction stormwater discharges (c) Chapter 6E, HRS, State Historic Preservation Division, as required 6.2.2 County of Hawaii (a) Conditional Use Permit, as required (b) Building Permits for infrastructure improvements (c) Grading Permits for earthwork activities associated with infrastructure improvements Public Outreach [24 CFR 50.23 & 58.43]: Pre- Consultation Letters – July 17, 2019 A Pre-Consultation letter was sent informing various federal, state, and county agencies, as well as representatives for the project area. The letter provided a background of the project and requested any comments for consideration in preparing the draft EA. Cumulative Impact Analysis [24 CFR 58.32] Cumulative effects are not anticipated as a result of implementing the proposed project. The proposed project represents a logical use of lands entitled for residential uses, within the urban area of Hilo. While further development in Hilo is probable, the Kaiaulu O Kapiolani development is an in-fill of the recognized residential growth boundaries of the region and has been seen as such by the Hilo Community Plan. Secondary impacts are those that have the potential to occur later in time or farther in distance, but which are reasonably foreseeable. They can be viewed as actions of others that are taken because of the presence of the project. Secondary impacts from highway projects, for example, can occur because they can induce development by removing transportation impediments to growth. There are no substantial, adverse, secondary impacts associated with the proposed project. The build-out of 64 affordable units will create minimal impacts upon area infrastructure, as discussed above, and will not generate a need to expand public infrastructure. Alternatives [24 CFR 58.40€; 40 CFR 1508.9] The Proposed Action is the construction of a 64-unit multi-family subdivision. This development would provide affordable housing to low income households. If approved, the subject parcel would require grading and construction permits for implementation. No Action Alternative [24 CFR 58.40€]: Under the No alternative, the property, which is zoned for residential uses, would continue to remain vacant. Additionally, 64 affordable residential units targeted at low income families would not become available. Given the recognized need for affordable-priced housing as well as the land owner’s desire to see some use made of the land, this No Action Alternative is not preferred. Summary of Findings and Conclusions: The Kaiaulu O Kapiolani development will not result in an irrevocable commitment to loss or destruction of any natural or cultural resources. There are no archaeological sites to be preserved, no evidence of past or present use for Hawaiian cultural practices, resources, or beliefs, and no known rare, endangered or threatened species of flora, fauna or avifauna or critical habitat for any such species located within the property. Kaiaulu O Kapiolani will not curtail the range of beneficial uses of the environment. This community is intended to provide affordable housing in the Hilo region. Use of the land for housing is appropriate in the context of the Hilo Community Plan and the current need for affordable housing inventory. Kaiaulu O Kapiolani is in accord with the State’s policies and goals, as set forth in HRS Chapter 344-3 (listed below). The subdivision will not waste or misuse natural resources. The proposed project is suitable for the area proposed and will improve social and economic welfare by providing affordable housing inventory. The State’s Environmental Policy is set forth in Chapter 344-3, HRS. (1) Conserve the natural resources, so that land, water, mineral, visual, air and other natural resources are protected by controlling pollution, by pre-serving or augmenting natural resources, and by safeguarding the State’s unique natural environmental characteristics in a manner which will foster and promote the general welfare, create and maintain conditions under which humanity and nature can exist in productive harmony, and fulfill the social economic, and other requirements of the people of Hawaii. (2) Enhance the quality of life by: a. Setting population limits so that the interaction between the natural and artificial environments and the population is mutually beneficial; b. Creating opportunities for the residents of Hawaii to improve their quality of life through diverse economic activities which are stable and in balance with the physical and social environments; c. Establish communities which provide a sense of identity, wise use of land, efficient transportation, and aesthetic and social satisfaction in harmony with the natural environment which is uniquely Hawaiian; and d. Establishing a commitment on the part of each person to protect and enhance Hawaii’s environment and reduce the drain on nonrenewable resources. Kaiaulu O Kapiolani is expected to have a direct beneficial effect on the local economy. The addition of affordable housing units addresses the need for homes in the region. The project is not expected to impact cultural resources as no cultural resources have been identified on the property; there is no evidence of past or present use for Hawaiian cultural practices, resources, or beliefs. Kaiaulu O Kapiolani is not expected to substantially affect public health. Environmental impacts from the community, such as noise and air pollution, will be minimal. A clean source of water will be provided. Wastewater will be properly handled. Additional drainage will be retained onsite. Solid waste will be disposed of properly. Kaiaulu O Kapiolani does involve substantial secondary impacts. Residents are not expected to adversely impact public services such as police, fire, and emergency medical operations, nor are they anticipated to have an adverse effect upon educational and recreational facilities. Kaiaulu O Kapiolani does not involve a substantial degradation of environmental quality. During the construction phase, there will be short-term air quality and noise impacts. In the long-term, effects upon air quality and ambient noise levels will be minimal. Other impacts, such as site grading, increased runoff, and use of resources, are not expected to be significant and can be mitigated with proper management techniques. Kaiaulu O Kapiolani does not involve a commitment to larger action as it is an “infill” project. As represented by the RM 1.5 multi-family dwelling units designation, residential uses on the site represent the carefully thought out development in Hilo. While the project may add new residents to the area, impacts from these new residents are not expected to be significant, and can be accommodated without substantially increasing public infrastructure or services. No endangered or threatened species or critical habitats are known to exist in the Kaiaulu O Kapiolani project area. Best Management Practices will be implemented to prevent secondary impacts to the coastal habitat, which may contain rare, threatened, or endangered species. Kaiaulu O Kapiolani will meet all required State and County air, water, and ambient noise quality standards prior to and during construction. No significant long-term impacts are anticipated. Construction activities will result in short-term air quality and noise impacts. Dust control measures, such as regular watering and sprinkling, will be implemented to minimize wind-blown emissions. Noise impacts will occur primarily from construction-related activities. It is anticipated that construction will be limited to daylight working hours. Water quality is not expected to be affected. In the long term, the community is not anticipated to have significant impacts on air, water quality, or ambient noise levels. Kaiaulu O Kapiolani is not located within, and will not affect, environmentally sensitive areas. The site is not subject to flooding or tsunami inundation. There are no geologically hazardous lands, estuaries, or coastal waters within or adjacent to the site. Hilo does afford beautiful views, however the subject property is not specifically identified in any county or State plans or studies as containing scenic vistas or view planes. The Kaiaulu O Kapiolani site is not identified as a scenic vista or view plane nor will it affect identified scenic vistas or view planes. The community will not affect scenic corridors and coastal scenic and open space resources. No substantial increase in energy consumption is expected as a result of the proposed action. The Kaiaulu O Kapiolani will involve the short-term commitment of fuel for equipment, vehicles, and machinery during construction activities. However, this use is not anticipated to result in a substantial consumption of energy resources. In the long-term, the community will create an additional demand for electricity. However, this demand is not deemed substantial or excessive within the context of the region’s overall energy consumption. Based on the foregoing findings, it is anticipated that the Kaiaulu O Kapiolani will not result in any significant impacts. Mitigation Measures and Conditions [40 CFR 1505.2(c)] Summarized below are all the mitigation measures adopted by the Responsible Entity to reduce, avoid, or eliminate adverse environmental impacts and to avoid non-compliance or non- conformance with the above-listed authorities and factors. These measures/conditions must be incorporated into project contracts, development agreements, and other relevant documents. The staff responsible for implementing and monitoring mitigation measures should be clearly identified in the mitigation plan. Law, Authority, or Factor Mitigation Measure HAR, Chapter 11-46, Community Noise Control HAR Chapter 11-60.1, Air Pollution Control, Section 11-60.1-33, Fugitive Dust; County’s “Soil Erosion and Sediment Control Standards.” Grading activities will be limited to normal daylight hours in order to limit noise impact and adhere to the Department of Health’s noise regulations for construction equipment. All construction activities will comply with all applicable Federal, State, and County regulations and rules for erosion control. Before issuance of grading permit by the County of Hawaii, the final erosion control plan and best management practices required for the NPDES permit will be completed. Typical mitigation measures taken to control erosion during the site development period include: minimizing the time of construction; retaining existing ground cover as long as possible; constructing drainage control features early; using temporary sprinklers in non-active construction areas when ground cover is removed; appropriately stockpiling materials on-site to prevent runoff; watering graded areas as needed, using temporary berms and cut-ff ditches where needed, installing silt screens where appropriate, covering open-bodied trucks. In 2007, the Hawaii Legislature enacted Act 245 as Section 302A, HRS, “School Impact Fees”. Based upon this legislation, the Department of Education will be enacting impact fees for residential developments that occur within identified school impact districts. Should the area be so designated prior to final subdivision approval, the applicant will coordinate with the DOE to determine the appropriate measures to be taken as required by the Section 302A-1603(b), HRS. Drainage An onsite drainage system will be constructed to accommodate runoff generated by a 50-year storm for one (1) hour for a fully developed site. The proposed system will include curb-inlet catch basins, drain manholes, drain lines and perforated drain lines. The system will be constructed in accordance with the County rules for the design of storm drainage facilities and to ensure that there are no adverse impacts to adjacent and downtown stream properties. Please see Exhibit 5 for drainage studies. Department of Water Supply Based upon coordination with the County of Hawaii Department of Water Supply, water for the subdivision will be provided from their water system. The water system improvements will be designed and constructed in accordance with County standards and requirements. Best management practices designed to minimize infiltration and runoff from daily operations will be implemented. Determination: Finding of No Significant Impact [24 CFR 58.40(g)(1); 40 CFR 1508.27] The project will not result in a significant impact on the quality of the human environment. Finding of Significant Impact [24 CFR 58.40(g)(2); 40 CFR 1508.27] The project may significantly affect the quality of the human environment.

Riverine features were mapped to the northwest and east of the Site. Please see Exhibit 14. Contamination 24 CFR Part 50.3(i) & 58.5(i)(2) YES According to a Phase I Environmental Site Assessment (ESA) dated February 2019, and a subsequent reconnaissance visit on February 10, 2019, the subject Site was not listed on any of the databases searched by Environmental Data Resources (EDR), which provides a review of federal, state, and local lists and available files of reported hazardous waste sites and hazardous substance/petroleum product sources and Environmental Provisions and Resource Yes/ No Environmental Review Record releases. The ESA did not identify any American Society for Testing and Materials (ASTM) defined Recognized Environmental Conditions (RECs) for the subject Site. ASTM proximity search guidelines were used to evaluate properties near the Site. There are no underground storage tanks (USTs) located on the Site, or on properties adjacent to the Site. No leaking underground storage tank (LUST) sites were located directly adjacent to the Site. A search of the HDOH UST Branch database records (dated 08/31/2018) resulted in eleven (11) sites having reported a UST release within a ½-mile radius of the Site. According to the HDOH LUST database, of the 11 LUST sites, nine (9) sites are recorded as Site Cleanup Completed and were issued a No Further Action (NFA). The LUST sites do not pose an environmental threat to the subject Site. Please see Exhibit 6. Noise Noise Control Act of 1972, as amended by the Quiet Communities Act of 1978; 24 CFR Part 51 Subpart B YES The properties immediately surrounding the Site are developed. No significant noise disturbance is anticipated from nearby roadways or from Hilo International Airport. Construction activities at the Site may increase noise levels, however limiting these activities to daylight hours will help to minimize noise impacts during construction. HDOH Administrative Rules, Title 11, Chapter 46, “Community Noise Control” regulations will be complied with for the duration of the project. If noise levels exceed allowable levels, as stated in Chapter 46 rules, a noise permit will be obtained. Once the project is completed, no significant increases in noise are anticipated. While overall noise levels would increase due to a rise in area population, increases would only be observed as modest increases in vehicular traffic, mechanical noise (i.e, air conditioning) and voice load. No industrial processes or activities that would contribute to a significant adverse impact to the noise environment are anticipated.

The U. S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) has set national ambient air quality standards (NAAQS) for six criteria pollutants: carbon monoxide, nitrogen dioxide, sulfur dioxide, lead, ozone, and particulate matter (PM10 and PM2.5).Hawaii has also established a state ambient air standard for hydrogen sulfide. The primary purpose of the statewide monitoring network is to measure ambient air concentrations of these pollutants and ensure that these air quality standards are met. The stations are maintained and the data are collected by the Air Surveillance and Analysis Section of the State Laboratories Division. In addition to monitoring the ambient air for criteria pollutants, the State of Hawaii also participates in the NCore multi pollutant monitoring network; the NCore station in Hawaii is located at the Kapolei monitoring station. The NCore network addresses the following objectives: x Timely reporting of data to public by supporting AIRNow, air quality forecasting, and other public reporting mechanisms; x Support for development of emission strategies through air quality model evaluation and other observational methods; x Accountability of emission strategy progress through tracking long-term trends of criteria and non-criteria pollutants and their precursors; x Support for long-term health assessments that contribute to ongoing reviews of the NAAQS; x Compliance through establishing nonattainment/attainment areas through comparison with the NAAQS; x Support to scientific studies ranging across technological, health, and atmospheric process disciplines; x Support to ecosystem assessments recognizing that national air quality networks benefit ecosystem assessments and, in turn, benefit from data specifically designed to address ecosystem analyses; and x PM2.5 speciation monitoring that EPA determined to be essential for establishing a relationship between particle concentrations and adverse health effects and would provide valuable information in characterizing aerosols, determining the effectiveness of control strategies, and understanding the effects of particle pollution on atmospheric and regional haze. Air pollution is caused by many different man-made and natural sources. There are industrial sources of pollution, such as power plants and refineries; mobile sources, such as cars, trucks, and buses; agricultural sources, such as cane burning; and natural sources, such as windblown dust and volcanic activity. In 2015, for the most part, the state maintained 14 air monitoring stations on 4 islands. Most commercial, industrial, 2 and transportation activities and their associated air quality effects occur on Oahu, where 4 of the stations are located. The monitoring stations on Maui are mainly to measure the air quality impacts from agricultural activities. The majority of stations are located on the island of Hawaii to measure air quality impacts from the volcano and geothermal energy production. The monitoring station on Kauai is mainly to measure the air quality impacts from cruise ships. The state’s ambient air monitoring network is reviewed annually and relocations, additions and/or discontinuations can occur in the future as the need arises. This report summarizes the validated air pollutant data collected at the 14 monitoring stations during calendar year 2015. Tabular summaries are provided which compare the measured concentrations of criteria pollutants with federal ambient air quality standards and of hydrogen sulfide with the state standard. The 2015 speciation data is also included in this report. Trend summaries of criteria pollutants parameters are shown graphically. The Department of Health has a web site that displays near real-time air quality data updated throughout the day from the air monitoring stations. The data has not been reviewed for quality assurance and is subject to change but provides the public with viewing access to current air pollutant and meteorological information. To view this data online, go to http://health.hawaii.gov/cab and link to “Hawaii Ambient Air Quality Data.” Additionally, because emissions from the Kilauea volcano are affecting communities on the island of Hawaii on a daily basis, the Department of Health has a website dedicated to displaying short term SO2 data from stations located on the island. It provides near real-time 15-minute SO2 averages and advisory level guidance to help individuals protect themselves against possible health effects.

Ambient Air The general outdoor atmosphere, external to buildings, to which the general public has access. Ambient Air Quality Standard A limit in the quantity and exposure to pollutants dispersed or suspended in the ambient air. Primary standards are set to protect public health, including sensitive populations such as asthmatics, children, and the elderly. Secondary standards are set to protect public welfare including protection against visibility degradation, and damage to animals, crops, vegetation and buildings. Carbon Monoxide Carbon monoxide (CO) is a colorless, odorless, tasteless gas under atmospheric conditions. It is produced by the incomplete combustion of carbon fuels with the majority of emissions coming from transportation sources.

Title 40 is the Protection of the Environment. Collocated This is a procedure required for a certain percentage of PM10 and PM2.5 samplers in the monitoring network. Collocated samplers determine precision or variation in the PM10 or PM2.5 concentration measurements of identical samplers run in the same location under the same sampling conditions. Criteria Pollutants These are the six pollutants for which the EPA has established national air quality standards. The pollutants are ozone, carbon monoxide, nitrogen dioxide, sulfur dioxide, lead and particulate matter (PM10 and PM2.5). EPA The U. S. Environmental Protection Agency; established to 4 protect human health and the natural environment. Hydrogen Sulfide Hydrogen sulfide (H2S) is a toxic, colorless gas with a characteristic “rotten egg” odor detectable at very low levels. It occurs naturally during the decomposition of organic matter, near geothermal sources and is also produced during certain industrial processes, including wastewater treatment facilities. Micron One micron is one millionth of a meter or approximately 1/25,000 of an inch. µg/m3 Micrograms per cubic meter. This is the measurement of air quality expressed as mass per unit volume. NAAQS National Ambient Air Quality Standards. These are pollutant standards that the EPA has established to protect public health and welfare. NAAQS have been set for carbon monoxide, nitrogen dioxide, PM10,PM2.5,ozone, sulfur dioxide, and lead. These are commonly referred to as criteria pollutants. NCore A multi-pollutant network that integrates several advanced measurement systems for particles, pollutant gases and meteorology. Most NCore stations have been operating since the formal start of the network on January 1, 2011, including Hawaii’s. Nitrogen Dioxide Nitrogen dioxide (NO2)isabrownish,highlycorrosivegas with a pungent odor. It is formed in the atmosphere from emissions of nitrogen oxides (NOx). Sources of nitrogen oxides include electric utilities, industrial boilers, motor vehicle exhaust and combustion of fossil fuels. NO2 is also a component in the atmospheric reaction that produces ground-level ozone. Ozone Ozone (O3) is the main constituent in photochemical air pollution. It is formed in the atmosphere by a chemical reaction of nitrogen oxides (NOx) and volatile organic compounds (VOCs) in the presence of sunlight. In the upper atmosphere, O3 shields the earth from harmful ultraviolet radiation; however, at ground level, it can cause harmful effects in humans and plants. Particulate Matter This refers to any solid or liquid matter dispersed in the air. Particulate matter (PM) includes dust, soot, smoke, and 5 liquid droplets from sources such as factories, power plants, motor vehicles, construction, agricultural activities, and fires. PM10 Particulate matter that is 10 microns or less in aerodynamic diameter. These are considered “coarse” particles, generally from sources such as road and windblown dust, and crushing and grinding operations. PM2.5 Particulate matter that is 2.5 microns or less in aerodynamic diameter. Considered “fine” particles, these are generally a result of fuel combustion such as from motor vehicles, utility generation and industrial facilities. Fine particles can also be formed when gases, such as sulfur dioxide and nitrogen dioxide, are chemically transformed into particles. ppm Parts per million is one particle in 1,000,000 other particles. It is approximately one drop in 13 gallons. SLAMS State and Local Air Monitoring Stations. The Clean Air Act requires that every state establish a network of air monitoring stations for criteria pollutants. SPM Special Purpose Monitoring stations. These are stations established to provide data for special studies in support of air program interests and activities. SPM stations supplement the SLAMS network as special circumstances require and adequate resources permit. Sulfur Dioxide Sulfur dioxide (SO2) is a colorless gas that easily combines with water vapor forming sulfuric acid. Emissions of sulfur dioxide are largely from sources that burn fossil fuels such as coal and oil. In Hawaii, another major source of sulfur dioxide emissions is from the eruption of Kilauea Volcano on the Big Island. Vog Vog is a local term used to express volcanic smog. Vog occurs when volcanic gas and particles combine with air and sunlight to produce atmospheric haze. 6 Table 2-1 State and Federal Ambient Air Quality Standards Sources: State standards HAR §11-59; Federal standards 40 CFR Part 50 Air Pollutant Averaging Time Standards Hawaii State Standard Federal Primary Standard a Federal Secondary Standard b Carbon Monoxide (CO) 1-hour 8-hour 9ppm 4.4 ppm 35 ppm 9ppm None Nitrogen Dioxide (NO2) 1-hour Annual --- 0.04 ppm 0.100 ppm 0.053 ppm --- 0.053 ppm PM10 24-hour Annual c 150 µg/m 3 50 µg/m 3 150 µg/m 3 --- --- --- PM2.5 24-hour Annual ---35 µg/m 3 12 µg/m 3 35 µg/m 3 15 µg/m 3 Ozone (O3)8-hour 0.08 ppm 0.070 ppm 0.070 ppm Sulfur Dioxide (SO2) 1-hour 3-hour 24-hour Annual --- 0.5 ppm 0.14 ppm 0.03 ppm 0.075 ppm --- --- --- --- 0.5 ppm --- --- Lead (Pb)Rolling 3-month 1.5 µg/m 3d 0.15 µg/m 3 0.15 µg/m 3 Hydrogen Sulfide 1-hour 0.025 ppm None None a Primary Standards set limits to protect public health, including the health of “sensitive” populations such as asthmatics, children and the elderly. b Secondary Standards set limits to protect public welfare, including protection against decreased visibility, damage to animals, crops, vegetation, and buildings. c Due to a lack of evidence linking health problems to long-term exposure to coarse particle pollution, EPA revoked the annual PM10 standard effective December 17, 2006. However, the state still has an annual standard. d The state standard is based on calendar quarter.

Data collected from the ambient air network is validated by the Air Surveillance and Analysis Section to ensure that the reported data is of good quality and meets all quality control and assurance requirements. The monitoring stations in communities near the volcano record higher levels of SO2 and PM2.5, with regular exceedances of the NAAQS for SO2 and occasional exceedances of the NAAQS for PM2.5. The EPA considers the volcano a natural, uncontrollable event and therefore the state is requesting exclusion of these NAAQS exceedances from attainment/non-attainment determination. Excluding the exceedances due to the volcano, in 2015 the State of Hawaii was in attainment of all NAAQS. Explanation of Summary Tables 4-1 through 4-18: x Summaries are by pollutant and averaging period, with the number of occurrences exceeding the NAAQS or, in Table 4-17, the number of exceedances of the state H2S standard (there is no federal H2Sstandard); x The “Maximum” is the highest and second highest valid values recorded in the year for the averaging period. For PM2.5, the maximum and 98 th percentile concentrations are provided and for O3, the 4 th highest daily maximum value is also displayed; x The “Annual Mean” is the arithmetic mean of all valid values recorded in the year; x “Possible Periods” is the total number of possible sampling periods in the year for the averaging period; x “Valid Periods” is the total number of acceptable sampling periods after data validation; x “Percent Recovery” represents the amount of quality data reported; x Attainment with the NAAQS is determined according to 40 CFR 50. Explanation of Tables 4-19 through 4-29: x For each pollutant and averaging period, the highest concentration for each month is presented; x The month with the highest value recorded in the year for each site is highlighted.

Primary and secondary particles tend to have long lifetimes in the atmosphere and can travel longdistances, up to hundreds or perhaps thousands of miles. Sources include dust from roads,construction, and agriculture; combustion particles from motor vehicles, electric utilities andagricultural burning; and particles from natural sources such as the ocean or volcano. Most of the PM2.5 is a combination of the following components: sulfates, nitrates,ammonium, elemental carbon, organic compounds, water and metals. The EPA selectedtarget particulates of interest based on data use objectives, primary constituents of PM2.5,and the capability and availability of current analytical methods. The filter-based speciation sampler collects samples once every 3 days for analyses performed by an EPA contract laboratory. The speciation sampler is located at the Kapolei NCore monitoring station. Table 5-1 lists the parameters measured, highest and second highest values recorded in the year, the annual arithmetic mean of all valid samples and the total number of samples collected in the year. Table 5-2 lists the analysis methods for each parameter. With the exception of lead, there are no ambient air quality standards for the individual components of speciated PM2.5.

Figures 6-1 and 6-2 are graphs of the PM10 annual and maximum 24-hour averages. Figure 6-3 is the graph of the PM2.5 annual averages. Attainment of the PM2.5 24-hour standard is based on the 98 th percentile value at each station, which is depicted in Figure 6-4. Figures 6-5 and 6-6 are graphs of the SO2 annual and maximum 24-hour averages. Figure 6-7 and 6-8 shows the annual and maximum 1-hour averages of NO2 compared to the federal NAAQS. Attainment of the 8-hour ozone standard is achieved by averaging 3 years of the fourth highest daily maximum 8-hour average concentrations, which must not exceed 0.070 ppm (standard effective October 1, 2015). Figure 6-9 is a graph of the fourth highest daily maximum values recorded at the Sand Island and Kapolei (since 2011) ozone monitoring stations in the past five years. The graphs for 1-hour and 8-hour carbon monoxide (figures 6-10 and 6-11, respectively) represent the maximum 1-hour or 8-hour values recorded in the year. Criteria pollutant levels remain below state and federal ambient air quality standards at all SLAMS stations in the state. 37 Figure 6-1. PM10 Annual Average: 2011-2015 Figure 6-2.

COASTAL ZONE MANAGEMENT/SPECIAL MANAGEMENT AREA The Hawaii Coastal Zone Management Program (HCZMP), as formalized in Chapter 205A, HRS, establishes objectives and policies for the preservation, protection, and restoration of natural resources of Hawaii’s coastal zone. The project site is not located in a Special Management Area (SMA). As set forth in Chapter 205A, HRS, this section addresses the project’s relationship to applicable coastal zone management considerations. 1. Recreational Resources Objective: Provide coastal recreational opportunities accessible to the public. Policies: a. Improve coordination and funding of coastal recreational planning and management; and b. Provide adequate, accessible, and diverse recreational opportunities in the coastal zone management area by: (i) Protecting coastal resources uniquely suited for recreational activities that cannot be provided in other areas; (ii) Requiring replacement of coastal resources having significant recreational value including, but not limited to, surfing sites, fishponds, and sand beaches, when such resources will be unavoidably damaged by development; or requiring reasonable monetary compensation to the State for recreation when replacement is not feasible or desirable; (iii) Providing and managing adequate public access, consistent with conservation of natural resources, to and along shorelines with recreational value; (iv) Providing an adequate supply of shoreline parks and other recreational facilities suitable for public recreation; (v) Ensuring public recreational uses of county, state, and federally owned or controlled shoreline lands and waters having recreational value consistent with public safety standards and conservation of natural resources; (vi) Adopting water quality standards and regulating point and nonpoint sources of pollution to protect, and where feasible, restore the recreational value of coastal waters; (vii) Developing new shoreline recreational opportunities, where appropriate, such as artificial lagoons, artificial beaches, and artificial reefs for surfing and fishing; and (viii) Encouraging reasonable dedication of shoreline areas with recreational value for public use as part of discretionary approvals or permits by the land use commission, board of land and natural resources, and requirements of section 46-6. Response: Recreational area needs of the proposed project are anticipated to be addressed through the provision of open space. The project proposes an onsite playground with open space and areas to gather, such as picnic tables, and a community center. Based on its location and development parameters, the project is not anticipated to adversely impact coastal resources, including access to the shoreline. 2. Historic Resources Objective: Protect, preserve, and where desirable, restore those natural and manmade historic and prehistoric resources in the coastal zone management area that are significant in Hawaiian and American history and culture. Policies: a. Identify and analyze significant archaeological resources; b. Maximize information retention through preservation of remains and artifacts or salvage operations; and c. Support state goals for protection, restoration, interpretation, and display of historic resources. Response: As noted previously, a cultural impact assessment was performed for the proposed project to identify and issue recommendations regarding historic, cultural, and archaeological resources. No historic properties affected was determined for the proposed project. In accordance with Section 6E- 43.6, Hawaii Revised Statutes and Chapter 13- 300, Hawaii Administrative Rules, if any significant cultural deposits or human skeletal remains are encountered, work will stop in the immediate vicinity and the applicant will contract the State Historic Preservation Division of the Department of Land and Natural Resources (SHPD/DLNR). Pursuant to their specific requests, the Office of Hawaiian Affairs (OHA) will also be notified. 3. Scenic and Open Space Resources Objective: Protect, preserve, and, where desirable, restore, or improve the quality of coastal scenic and open space resources. Policies: a. Identify valued scenic resources in the coastal zone management areas; b. Ensure that new developments are compatible with their environment by designing and locating such developments to minimize the alteration of natural landforms and existing public views to and along the shoreline; c. Preserve, maintain, and where desirable, improve and restore shoreline open space and scenic resources; and d. Encourage the developments that are not coastal dependent to locate in inland areas. Response: The subject property is located in Hilo at elevations up to approximately 91-feet above mean sea level. The proposed project plan will conform to the Hilo Community Development Plan and will be buffered with landscaping and open space areas to mitigate visual impact. View corridors will not be adversely affected by the proposed project, as the subject property is not specifically identified in any county or State plans or studies as containing scenic vistas or view planes. 4. Coastal Ecosystems Objective: Protect valuable coastal ecosystems, including reefs, from disruption and minimize adverse impacts on all coastal ecosystems. Policies: a. Exercise an overall conservation ethic, and practice stewardship, the protection, use, and development of marine and coastal resources; b. Improve the technical basis for natural resource management; c. Preserve valuable coastal ecosystems, including reefs, of significant biological or economic importance; d. Minimize disruption or degradation of coastal water ecosystems by effective regulation of stream diversions, channelization, and similar land and water uses, recognizing competing water needs; and e. Promote water quantity and quality planning and management practices that reflect the tolerance of fresh water and marine ecosystems and maintain and enhance water quality through the development and implementation of point and nonpoint source water pollution control measures. Response: The project site is located approximately 3,400 feet from the shoreline and is not anticipated to affect the coastal ecosystems. With implementation of Best Management Practices (BMPs), the proposed project should have minimal long-term adverse effects on the nearby coastal ecosystems. Appropriate BMPs and erosion-control measures will be implemented to ensure that coastal ecosystems are not adversely impacted by construction activities. Project-related drainage system improvements will be designed in accordance with applicable regulatory standards to mitigate potential adverse impacts to surrounding properties. 5. Economic Uses Objective: Provide public or private facilities and improvements important to the State’s economy in suitable locations. Policies: a. Concentrate coastal dependent development in appropriate areas; b. Ensure that coastal dependent development such as harbors and ports, and coastal related development such as visitor industry facilities and energy generating facilities, are located, designed, and constructed to minimize adverse social, visual, and environmental impacts in the coastal zone management area; and c. Direct the location and expansion of coastal dependent developments in areas presently designated and used for such developments and permit reasonable long- term growth at such areas, and permit coastal dependent development outside of presently designated areas when: i. Use of presently designated locations is not feasible; ii. Adverse environmental effects are minimized; and iii. The development is important to the State’s economy. Response: The proposed project is not located at or near the coastline and will, therefore, not involve coastal development. The proposed action does not contravene the objective and policies for economic use. 6. Coastal Hazards Objective: Reduce hazard to life and property from tsunami, storm waves, stream flooding, erosion, subsidence, and pollution. Policies: a. Develop and communicate adequate information about storm wave, tsunami, flood, erosion, subsidence, and point and nonpoint source pollution hazards; b. Control development in areas subject to storm wave, tsunami, flood, erosion, hurricane, wind, subsidence, and point and nonpoint source pollution hazards; c. Ensure that developments comply with requirements of the Federal Flood Insurance Program; and d. Prevent coastal flooding from inland projects. Response: The project site is not within a tsunami or flood zone. Project-related drainage system improvements will be designed in accordance with applicable regulatory standards to mitigate potential adverse impact to surrounding properties. 7. Managing Development Objective: Improve the development review process, communication, and public participation in the management of coastal resources and hazards. Policies: a. Use, implement, and enforce existing law effectively to the maximum extent possible in managing present and future coastal zone development; b. Facilitate timely processing of applications for development permits and resolve overlapping or conflicting permit requirements; and c. Communicate the potential short and long-term impacts of proposed significant costal developments early in their life cycle and in terms understandable to the public to facilitate public participation in the planning and review process. Response: public input was solicited in coordination with the processing of the EA pursuant to the environmental assessment review process. All aspects of development will be conducted in accordance with applicable Federal, State, and County standards. Opportunities for review of the proposed action are offered through the regulatory review process for construction and development permits. 8. Public Participation Objective: Stimulate public awareness, education, and participation in coastal management. Policies: a. Promote public involvement in coastal zone management processes; b. Disseminate information on coastal zone management issues by means of educational materials, published reports, staff contact, and public workshops for persons and organizations concerned with coastal issues, developments, and government activities; and c. Organize workshops, policy dialogues, and site-specific mediations to respond to coastal issues and conflicts. Response: The EA document environmental review process allows opportunity for comment by agencies and the public. 9. Beach Protection Objective: Protect beaches for public use and recreation. Policies: a. Locate new structures inland from the shoreline setback to conserve open space, minimize interference with natural shoreline processes, and minimize loss of improvements due to erosion; b. Prohibit construction of private erosion-protection structures seaward of the shoreline, except when they result in improved aesthetic and engineering solutions to erosion at the sites and do not interfere with existing recreational and waterline activities; and c. Minimize the construction of public erosion-protection structures seaward of the shoreline. Response: The proposed project is situated inland, away from the shoreline (approximately 3,400 feet) and no adverse effect on beach processes is anticipated. Appropriate BMPs will be implemented to mitigate storm water runoff associated with the project and to ensure that downstream and adjoining properties will not be adversely affected. 10. Marine Resources Objective: Promote the protection, use, and development of marine and coastal resources to assure their sustainability. Policies: a. Ensure that the use and development of marine and coastal resources are ecologically and environmentally sound and economically beneficial; b. Coordinate the management of marine and coastal resources and activities to improve effectiveness and efficiency; c. Assert and articulate the interests of the State as a partner with federal agencies in the sound management of ocean resources within the United States exclusive economic zone; d. Promote research, study, and understanding of ocean processes, marine life, and other ocean resources in order to acquire and inventory information necessary to understand how ocean development activities relate to and impact upon ocean and coastal resources; and e. Encourage research and development of new, innovative technologies for exploring, using, or protecting marine and coastal resources. Response: The proposed project is situated inland (approximately 3,400 feet), away from the ocean and no adverse effect on marine or coastal resources is anticipated. Appropriate BMPs and erosion control measures will be implemented to ensure that coastal resources are not adversely impacted by construction activities. In addition to the foregoing objectives and policies, SMA permit review criteria pursuant to Act 224 (2005) provides that: No special management area use permit or special management area minor permit shall be granted for structures that allow artificial light from floodlights, uplights, or spotlights used for decorative or aesthetic purposes when the light: (1) Directly illuminates the shoreline and ocean waters; or (2) Is directed to travel across property boundaries toward the shoreline and ocean waters. The proposed subdivision is not located on or near the shoreline. The preliminary lighting plan for the project will be designated to ensure that no lighting is directed across property boundaries towards the shoreline.

INTRODUCTION This offsite drainage report and stream study determines the peak flow discharge rate for the proposed Kaiaulu O Kapiolani affordable housing project at TMK parcels 2-4-025 : 048, 053 and 080. The property has an existing drainage easement which runs through the property to convey offsite runoff from the mauka side of the property to the makai side, prior to draining into County properties above Kapiolani Street with an undeveloped retention basin area. Based on the peak flows determined to flow through the drainage easement, onsite drainage improvements are recommended to accommodate the storm water runoff and allow the site to be developed into the proposed multi-family development. II. EXISTING CONDITIONS The properties for the proposed Kaiaulu O Kapiolani affordable housing project are TMKs: 2-4- 025: 048, 053 and 080. See Appendix A for a Tax Map of the properties involved. Currently the site is a vacant and has a paved and gravel access driveway along the mauka side of the property connecting to Kukuau Road to the north and a long winding driveway to Hualalai Street to the south. The drainage easement runs through the center of the main parcel and consists of Drainage Easement “254” being approximately 3,388 square feet in size and Drainage Easement “253” being approximately 18,059 square feet. Along the mauka portion of the drainage easement, three (3) 36” diameter culverts run underneath the driveway and an unlined channel conveys storm water runoff through the property in the middle of the drainage easement. The site elevations range from 92’ on the mauka side of the easement down to 86’ on the makai side of the drainage easement. See Appendix B for a topographic survey of the properties showing the existing driveway culverts and unlined channel in the drainage easement. The current FEMA Flood Insurance Rate Map (FIRM) for the area is panel 155166 0904 Revision F dated September 29, 2017. A copy of the area of interest from the current FIRM panel is attached in Appendix C. This FIRM panel shows the property is fully outside of the regulatory floodplain and within the Zone X (unshaded) floodplain being outside of the 500-year floodplain. An additional Flood Hazard Assessment Report from Hawaii State DLNR for the property is provided in Appendix D. The properties and drainage easement conveying offsite runoff through the site is situated between larger drainageways of the Alenaio Stream to the north and the Waiakea Flood Control Channel to the south. Some adjacent residential properties to the north of the site are shown as being within a Zone X location protected by a Levee on the Alenaio Stream, however the proposed Kaiaulu O Kapiolani development does not reside within the area protected by the Levee. Even though the properties lie outside the FEMA 500-year floodplain, this report assesses the smaller drainage area and peak runoff flows through the drainage easement in accordance with the County Storm Drainage Standard, dated October 1970 (Drainage Standards). Stream Study Kaiaulu O Kapiolani Page 4 III. HYDROLOGIC CRITERIA The offsite drainage area was obtained using USGS topographic maps available for the offsite areas and the USGS StreamStats tool. The offsite watershed was determined to start up near Kahikini Street by the Hilo Adult Day Center, passing through Komohana Steet down to the Kaiaulu O Kapiolani project development site and ending in the undeveloped retention basin area below the project site within County property on the mauka side of Kapiolani Street. See Appendix E for the Offsite Drainage Map. The total offsite drainage area is estimated to be 65 acres with mean elevation of 176 ft. Change in elevations is 269 feet from top to bottom over about 4,800 feet distance. Since the offsite runoff will flow through a culvert within a County drainage easement, the 50-year recurrence interval will be used. Maximum 60 minute precipitation that occurs on average once in 50-years is 6.2 inches per hour per Plate 2. See Appendix F for the StreamStats report summarizing the drainage area and Plate 6 showing the hydrologic information for the offsite watershed area. Based on the County Drainage Standards, the design recurrence interval for the offsite drainage area of 65 acres is the 50 year design storm (for drainage area being less than 100 acres) within a County drainage easement. The 50-year design storm recurrence interval will be used as the basis for the drainage improvements for the drainage easement through the project site. Runoff Coefficient (C) Based on the Drainage Standards, the rational method will be used to estimate the storm runoff for the offsite drainage area being less than 100 acres. The runoff coefficient (C) for the offsite drainage area was estimated based on Table 1 of the Drainage Standards. The offsite drainage area is generally developed and residential in nature with a small drainageway running through the properties. The runoff coefficient is estimated to be: Watershed Characteristics Value Infiltration 0.07 (medium) Relief 0.03 (rolling 5% to 15% grades) Vegetal Cover 0.03 (good 10% to 50%) Development Type 0.40 (residential) Total (Runoff Coefficient) 0.53 The estimated runoff coefficient for the offsite drainage area is calculated to be 0.53. Time of Concentration, Tc The time of concentration is calculated for the overland flow across the offsite areas. The time of concentration will be 30.5 minutes. Refer to Figure 1: Plate 3 – Overland Flow Chart. Stream Study Kaiaulu O Kapiolani Page 5 Figure 1: Plate 3 – Overland Flow Chart Rainfall Intensity for Indicated Durations Based on the Time of Concentration for drainage area, the Rainfall Intensity for the Indicated Duration is calculated based on Plate 4 from the County’s Drainage Standards. The Rainfall Intensities are estimated as shown in Figure 2: Plate 4 – Rainfall Intensities for Indicated Duration. Figure 2: Plate 4 – Rainfall Intensities for Indicated Duration 8.6 IN/HR Stream Study Kaiaulu O Kapiolani Page 6 Using the rational method equation, the peak storm water runoff discharge rates for the offsite drainage area through the drainage easement through the property is calculated as: Area (Acre) 50-year 65.0 0.53 I50i 8.60 Q50 296.27 C Q (cfs) I (in/hr) IV. HYDRAULIC CRITERIA The proposed site development plan for Kaiaulu O Kapiolani is shown in Appendix G. The drainage easement is shown within the middle of the site and is planned to remain as open pavement and parking areas without any building structures. To provide a safe and usable site, a long culvert is planned to be installed underneath the central parking lot drive aisle. An inlet headwall will be installed on the mauka side of the culvert along with an outlet headwall on the makai side of the culvert. The culvert pipes will generally be placed in the same location as the existing unlined channel and replace the existing three (3) 36” diameter culverts on the gravel driveway. It will pass through the middle of the site under the parking lot drive aisle. The Federal Highway Administration (FHWA) HY-8 culvert modeling software was used to confirm the culvert sizing that would be warranted to pass the offsite drainage through the drainage easement underneath the parking lot drive aisle. Based on the preliminary construction plans, the culvert design is based on a 386.92’ long culvert with 1.24% slope and square headwalls on the inlet and outlet structures. Based on the 50-year design recurrence interval (296.27 cfs peak flow rate), the following culvert configuration will be used for the culvert installation: · Four (4) 36” diameter RCP circular pipe culverts (HDPE pipe culverts also allowable) Since the basis of design is the 50-year recurrence interval, it would be recommended to have the parking lot drive aisle areas above the culvert to be designed as a low spot in the project site to accommodate additional storm water runoff if the culverts overflow due to a higher recurrence rain event or temporary blockage of the culvert(s) by debris. Regular maintenance of the culvert pipes will be required to clear any large debris that doesn’t pass through the culvert. See Appendix H for the HY-8 analysis report. Based on the proposed culvert analysis, a headwater elevation of 97.33’ would occur during the 50-year storm event. For the current existing conditions, see Appendix I for the HY-8 analysis report for the existing three (3) 36” diameter culverts. The existing conditions has an unpaved driveway going overtop of the existing three culverts, which drains into a natural open channel with a relatively flat channel slope. According to the topographic survey, the existing culverts actually have an inverted negative slope (i.e. the inlet inverts are lower than the outlet inverts), however the center culvert has close to the same invert and outlet elevations, so we modeled the existing culvert conditions using a flat culvert slope. Based on the existing culvert analysis, an existing headwater elevation of 97.89’ would occur during the 50-year storm event. The culvert outlet will have flow velocities of 12 feet per second, and outlet protection shall be provided in the final construction plan design, that can accommodate the flow velocities. Stream Study Kaiaulu O Kapiolani Page 7 V. CONCLUSION The offsite watershed area passing through the proposed project drainage easement has been assessed and a range of culvert options are proposed to convey the design 50-year recurrence interval storm offsite runoff through the site. The proposed culvert conditions would decrease the anticipated headwater elevation slightly compared to the existing culvert headwater elevations, so there would not be adverse impacts or additional ponding to the upstream lot. The culvert options would safely convey the design peak storm water runoff and not cause adverse impacts to neighboring adjacent properties. It is recommended that the Kaiaulu O Kapiolani development provide onsite stormwater provisions to convey runoff into this culvert within the drainage easement either by surface flow into drain inlets above the culvert, or underground storm drain lines to tie into the sidewalls of the culvert with a 45-degree angle in the downstream flow direction. Drywells could be installed within the project site or below the invert of the new culvert (if a box culvert option was selected) to help infiltrate stormwater runoff and mitigate developmental increase in storm water runoff anticipated due to the impervious surfaces added for the proposed development.

Environmental Risk Analysis LLC Prepared By: Name: Vincent Yanagita Title: Senior Project Manager Reviewed By: Name: Russell Okoji Title: Principal Scientist Phase I Environmental Site Assessment Section: ES February 2019 Page: 1 of 4 EXECUTIVE SUMMARY At the request of A0705 Hilo, L.P., Environmental Risk Analysis LLC (ERA) has performed a Phase I Environmental Site Assessment (ESA) for an undeveloped property located in Hilo, Hawaii (hereafter referred to as the Site). The Site is located on the west side of the island of Hawaii and is designated as Tax Map Keys (TMK) (3) 2-4-025:048, 053 & 080. The purpose of this ESA was to identify, to the extent feasible, Recognized Environmental Conditions (RECs) associated with the Site. The investigation included a physical inspection of the property; review of current regulatory environmental database information; interviews of persons knowledgeable about the property, review of historical records; and preparation of this Phase I ESA Report. This ESA report conforms to the format outlined in the American Society for Testing and Materials (ASTM) Document E1527-13 and the United States Environmental Protection Agency’s (USEPA) All Appropriate Inquiries Rule. The site reconnaissance visit was conducted by Mr. Max Ulloa on February 10, 2019. FINDINGS The Site was located at an open, undeveloped, and heavily wooded property on Kapiolani Street, across from the County of Hawaii Civil Defense building in the town of Hilo, Hawaii. The property did not appear to be currently in use. The entrance to the property was through Hualalai Street and through a dirt road that ran through a small residential area located in the southern portion of the subject Site. The Site was heavily wooded and vegetated with no roads or public access. The Site was accessed through the dirt road starting at Hualalai Street on the southern portion of the Site and ending at Kukuau Street on the northern portion of the Site. No indications of current or historical chemical use or storage were observed, and no indications of current or historical petroleum or hazardous material use, or storage were noted. There were no indicators of stressed vegetation, discolored, or disturbed soil areas. No discolored or polluted water was observed, including unusual or noxious odors. ERA did no observe any groundwater monitoring wells or floor drains on the Site. Aerial photographs from 1954 through 2013, indicate that the Site has remained undeveloped throughout its recorded history. No RECs were identified in the review of the historic aerial photographs. ES-1 Phase I Environmental Site Assessment Section: ES February 2019 Page: 2 of 4 Electrical transformers may contain PCBs and all untested mineral oil transformers purchased prior to July 1, 1979, must be considered PCB-contaminated. RECs were not identified during the assessment of electrical transformers. ERA observed three poles each with a single electrical transformer mounted. HELCO was queried regarding if the PCB status of these transformers were known. HELCO responded that all three (3) observed pole mounted transformers were non-PCB containing. The Hawaiian Electric Company response is provided in Appendix F. No fluorescent light fixtures were observed throughout the subject property. ERA queried the EDR database to obtain information about federal and state environmental release listings. The Site was not listed on any federal or state environmental database. No sites in the vicinity of the subject Site were identified which would pose and environmental threat to the subject Site.

The subject of this Phase I ESA is an undeveloped 5.05-acre property subdivided into three (3) separate parcels designated by Tax Map Keys (TMKs) (3) 2-4-025:048, 053 & 080. The subject Site is located in the town of Hilo, on the east coast of the island of Hawaii. 1.1 PURPOSE This Phase I ESA was requested by A0705 Hilo, L.P., to determine the current environmental status of the Site to satisfy due diligence requirements mandated by the Comprehensive Environmental Response, Compensation, and Liability Act of 1980 (CERCLA). The purpose of this investigation was to identify and evaluate evidence that may indicate any Recognized Environmental Conditions (REC) at the Site due to past or current management of chemicals or other materials that, if released or not properly controlled, could present a risk to human health or the environment. Under CERCLA, owners and operators of real estate with hazardous substance contamination may be held strictly liable for the costs of cleaning up contamination found on their property. No evidence linking the owner/operator with the placement of the hazardous substances on the property is required. Congress, in response to pressure from business and academic groups, established the “innocent landowner defense” in the 1986 amendments to CERCLA known as the Superfund Amendments and Reauthorization Act (SARA). To establish innocent landowner status, the landowner “must have undertaken, at the time of acquisition, all appropriate inquiry into the previous ownership and uses of the property consistent with good commercial and customary practice in an effort to minimize liability.” In an effort to clarify what constitutes “all appropriate inquiry,” the American Society for Testing and Materials (ASTM) has developed a standard that provides specific definition of the steps one should take when conducting a “due diligence” Phase I ESA for commercial real estate. The site assessment documented herein complies with the current ASTM E1527-13 Standard Practice for Environmental Site Assessments. 1-1 Phase I Environmental Site Assessment Section: 1 February 2019 Page: 2 of 6 ASTM E-1527-13 defines three categories of Recognized Environmental Conditions (REC) which may impact the project site. x A REC is defined as the presence of any hazardous substance or petroleum product in, on, or at the property: 1) due to any release to the environment, 2) under conditions indicative of a release to the environment, or 3) under conditions that pose a material threat of a future release to the environment x Historical RECs (H-RECs) are defined as a past release of any hazardous substance or petroleum product that has occurred in connection with the property and has been addressed to the satisfaction of the applicable regulatory authorities or meeting unrestricted use criteria established by a regulatory authority, without subjecting the property to any required controls x Controlled RECs (C-RECs) are defined as a REC resulting from a past release that has been addressed to the satisfaction of the applicable regulatory authority, with hazardous substances or petroleum products allowed to remain in place, subject to the implementation of required controls, such as property use restrictions, activity and use limitations, institutional controls, or engineering controls Additionally, the United States Environmental Protection Agency (USEPA) has also published its final rule setting federal standards for the conduct of all appropriate inquiries. This rule establishes specific regulatory requirements for conducting all appropriate inquiries into previous ownership, uses, and environmental conditions of a property. As of November 1, 2006, parties must comply with either the requirements of the All Appropriate Inquiries Final Rule or the standards set forth in the ASTM E1527-13 Phase I Environmental Site Assessment Process. All appropriate inquiries must be conducted in compliance with either of these standards in order to obtain protection from potential liability under CERCLA as an innocent landowner, a contiguous property owner, or a bona fide prospective purchaser. This site assessment complies with both the current ASTM E1527-13 Standard Practice for Environmental Site Assessments and the USEPA All Appropriate Inquiries Rule. 1.2 SCOPE The scope of services for this Phase I ESA consisted of the following tasks: x Reviewing historical aerial photographs, information of past ownership, and conducting discussions with knowledgeable persons to evaluate historical land use. x Assessing general conditions at the Site including a general geology and hydrogeology evaluation. 1-2 Phase I Environmental Site Assessment Section: 1 February 2019 Page: 3 of 6 x A reconnaissance visit to the Site to evaluate visual evidence of past or current practices that may have impacted the Site. x Reviewing local, state, and federal agency lists and available files of reported hazardous waste sites and hazardous substance/petroleum sources and releases. ERA queried the Environmental Data Resources, Inc. (EDR) database which provides comprehensive federal and state environmental release listings. The EDR database provides results in proximity to the Site following ASTM search distance guidelines. x Providing a summary of findings and recommendations for the Site. x Providing a summary of the limitations of this assessment. 1.3 SITE LOCATION The Site is approximately 219,978 square feet (5.05-acres) and is defined as TMKs (3) 2-4-025:048, 053 & 080 in the city of Hilo, Hawaii. A map displaying the location of the Site is included as Figure 1. Figure 2 depicts the TMK boundaries. 1.4 CURRENT USE OF THE SUBJECT PROPERTY The Site is completely unpaved and heavily wooded with no traversing roads or public access. 1.5 CURRENT USE OF ADJACENT PROPERTIES Adjoining properties were observed from public access areas for signs of RECs for their potential to pose an environmental risk to the subject property.

Research on historical land use was accomplished by examining the following sources: historical information sources, historical aerial photographs, land lease and land ownership records, and reports from previous investigations that may have been conducted at the Site. In addition, first hand interviews were conducted with persons who are knowledgeable about the Site. 2.1 HISTORICAL INFORMATION SOURCES ERA queried the EDR database to obtain information about federal and state environmental release listings. The EDR database provides results in proximity to the Site following ASTM search distance guidelines (indicated in Section 5) and is continually updated. EDR provided the Sanborn Fire Insurance maps, historical city records, and historical topographic maps reviewed in this Section. Results of the EDR database search are provided in Section 5 of this report. Other historical information sources queried included: aerial photographs and environmental records reviewed through the State of Hawai‘i, Department of Health (HDOH). 2.2 HISTORICAL AERIAL PHOTOGRAPHS Historical aerial photographs were reviewed to help determine the past use of the Site, as well as adjacent properties. Aerial photographs for the years 1954, 1975, 1977, 1985, 1992, and 2000 were obtained from EDR historical aerial maps (EDR, 2019a). A 2013 aerial photograph from Google Maps is included. Based on a review of the historical aerial photographs spanning 1954 to 2013, the Site remains undeveloped. No ASTM defined RECs were noted from review of the historical aerial photographs. Copies of the aerial photographs are available in Appendix B. Brief descriptions of these photographs are presented below: 2-1 Phase I Environmental Site Assessment Section: 2 February 2019 Page: 2 of 9 1954 Site: The 1954 aerial photograph depicts the Site being undeveloped land, with no roads or structures visible on the property.

The following section describes the Site with regards to soil classifications, groundwater hydrology, topography and land cover and local zoning. 3.1 SOIL CLASSIFICATIONS The United States Department of Agriculture (USDA) Soil Conservation Service (SCS) classifies the type of soil within the Site as 100% Keaukaha-Urban land complex. It is classified as a Hydrologic Soil Group D with a typical profile consisting of highly decomposed plant material from 0 to 4 inches bgs and lithic bedrock from 4 to 14 inches bgs. These soils have a high runoff class, which indicates they are well drained. The depth to groundwater is more than 80 inches. 3.2 GROUNDWATER HYDROLOGY The Site overlies the Hilo aquifer system of the Northeast Mauna Loa aquifer sector. The aquifer is a basal (fresh water in contact with sea water), unconfined (where water table is upper surface of saturated aquifer), flank aquifer. It is classified as currently used, drinking, irreplaceable, and highly vulnerable to contamination, that is fresh (<250 milligrams per liter [mg/l] chloride [Cl-]) (Mink and Lau, 1992). According to a 1-mile radius search from the Site, the EDR report listed two (2) United States Geological Survey (USGS) wells within a 1-mile radius of the Site (EDR, 2019e). The nearest Federal Public Water Supply (PWS) well is located within ¼-mile radius from the Site. The subject property of the well is located Mauka (i.e., toward the mountains) of the Underground Injection Control Line (UIC) therefore it is considered a potable water resource. The subject property of the other well is located Makai (i.e., toward the ocean) of the UIC therefore, not considered a potable water resource. Injection wells do require a UIC permit or permit exemption and permit limitations are imposed. 3.3 TOPOGRAPHY AND LAND COVER The Site is undeveloped and heavily wooded.

Evidence of possible releases of hazardous substances or petroleum products include discolored soil, flooring, or paving; visible leaks; odors; and apparent stressed vegetation. A visual survey of adjacent properties from public thoroughfares is also conducted. Mr. Max Ulloa of ERA conducted the site reconnaissance on February 10, 2019. The following sections present general observations of the Site and the surrounding area. 4.1 GENERAL OBSERVATIONS OF THE SITE No visual evidence of hazardous substance release was noted during the site reconnaissance. Photos of the Site as it appeared on February 10, 2019 are provided in Appendix F. General The Site was located at an open, undeveloped, and heavily wooded property on Kapiolani Street, across from the County of Hawaii Civil Defense building in the town of Hilo, Hawaii. The property did not appear to be currently in use. The entrance to the property was through Hualalai Street and through a dirt road that ran through a small residential area located in the southern portion of the subject Site. The Site was heavily wooded and vegetated with no roads or public access. The Site was accessed through the dirt road starting at Hualalai Street on the southern portion of the Site and ending at Kukuau Street on the northern portion of the Site. No indications of current or historical chemical use or storage were observed, and no indications of current or historical petroleum or hazardous material use, or storage were noted. There were no indicators of stressed vegetation, discolored, or disturbed soil areas. No discolored or polluted water was observed, including unusual or noxious odors. ERA did not observe any groundwater monitoring wells or floor drains on the Site. 4-1 Phase I Environmental Site Assessment Section: 4 February 2019 Page: 2 of 3 4.2 GENERAL OBSERVATIONS OF THE SURROUNDING AREA ERA visually assessed areas adjacent to the Site from public thoroughfares. The following were observed for the surrounding area: x North: Residential structures, Kukuau Street. More residential structures beyond Kukuau street. x East: Kapiolani Street. Across Kapiolani Street is The County of Hawaii Civil Defense building, Hilo Driver Licensing Station, and the Hawaii Police Department. St. Joseph’s School is also located to the southeast of the Site. x South: Residential structures. Hualalai Street, and Hale Nani Street. x West: Residential structures and Popolo Street. The adjacent properties that were observed during inspection of the subject property mainly include residential properties, along with tanning salons, schools and government buildings. All adjacent properties that were inspected appeared to be well maintained and no indications of any potential for RECs were observed. No evidence of hazardous substance release was observed from any of the adjacent properties or other public thoroughfares. 4.3 PCB-CONTAINING EQUIPMENT RECs were not identified during the assessment of electrical transformers. Electrical transformers may contain PCBs and all untested mineral oil transformers purchased prior to July 1, 1979, must be considered PCB-contaminated. ERA observed three (3) poles, each with a single electrical transformer located near the Site. Hawaii Electric Light Company (HELCO) was queried regarding if the PCB status of these transformers were known. HELCO responded that all three (3) observed pole mounted transformers were non-PCB containing. The HELCO response is provided in Appendix F. No fluorescent light fixtures were observed throughout the subject property. 4.4 ASBESTOS-CONTAINING MATERIAL AND LEAD PAINT ACBM and LCP are not considered to be RECs as defined by ASTM but can pose potential health hazards. There was no observed potential ACBM and LCP at the Site. If additional materials are discovered during Site development, these materials may require testing prior to disposal. 4-2 Phase I Environmental Site Assessment Section: 4 February 2019 Page: 3 of 3 4.5 ARSENIC From the review of historic site use, the Site was not historically used for sugar cane cultivation; therefore, arsenic is not considered a REC for the Site. 4-3 Phase I Environmental Site Assessment Section: 5 February 2019 Page: 1 of 12 SECTION 5: REVIEW OF FEDERAL, STATE, AND LOCAL LISTS AND AVAILABLE FILES OF REPORTED HAZARDOUS SUBSTANCE/PETROLEUM PRODUCT SOURCES AND RELEASES This section includes results of a review of federal, state, and local lists and available files of reported hazardous waste sites and hazardous substance/petroleum product sources and releases.

The purpose of this ESA was to identify, to the extent feasible, RECs associated with the Site. The investigation included a physical inspection of the property; review of current regulatory environmental database information; interviews of persons knowledgeable about the property, review of historical records; and preparation of this Phase I ESA Report. This ESA report conforms to the format outlined in the ASTM Document E1527-13 and the USEPA All Appropriate Inquiries Rule. The site reconnaissance visit was conducted by Mr. Max Ulloa on February 10, 2019. Findings The Site was located at an open, undeveloped, and heavily wooded property on Kapiolani Street, across from the County of Hawaii Civil Defense building in the town of Hilo, Hawaii. The property did not appear to be currently in use. The entrance to the property was through Hualalai Street and through a dirt road that ran through a small residential area located in the southern portion of the subject Site. The Site was heavily wooded and vegetated with no roads or public access. The Site was accessed through the dirt road starting at Hualalai Street on the southern portion of the Site and ending at Kukuau Street on the northern portion of the Site. No indications of current or historical chemical use or storage were observed, and no indications of current or historical petroleum or hazardous material use, or storage were noted. There were no indicators of stressed vegetation, discolored, or disturbed soil areas. No discolored or polluted water was observed, including unusual or noxious odors. ERA did no observe any groundwater monitoring wells or floor drains on the Site. Aerial photographs from 1954 through 2013, indicate that the Site has remained undeveloped throughout its recorded history. No RECs were identified in the review of the historic aerial photographs. Electrical transformers may contain PCBs and all untested mineral oil transformers purchased prior to July 1, 1979, must be considered PCB-contaminated. RECs were not identified during the assessment of electrical transformers. ERA observed three poles each with a single electrical transformer mounted. HELCO was queried regarding if the PCB status of these transformers were 6-1 Phase I Environmental Site Assessment Section: 6 February 2019 Page: 2 of 2 known. HELCO responded that all three (3) observed pole mounted transformers were non-PCB containing. The Hawaiian Electric Company response is provided in Appendix F. No fluorescent light fixtures were observed throughout the subject property. ERA queried the EDR database to obtain information about federal and state environmental release listings. The Site was not listed on any federal or state environmental database. No sites in the vicinity of the subject Site were identified which would pose and environmental threat to the subject Site. SUMMARY AND RECOMMENDATIONS RECs - Site x No RECs Identified List of Additional Environmental Issues x No Additional Environmental Issues Identified. 6-2 Phase I Environmental Site Assessment Section: 7 February 2019 Page: 1 of 1 SECTION 7: DEVIATIONS AND DATA GAPS The following are data gaps encountered during the assessment: x A valuation assessment comparing fair market value of the property was not performed as information regarding the fair market value and property purchase price was not available. These data gaps are not considered significant. 7-1 Phase I Environmental Site Assessment Section: 8 February 2019 Page: 1 of 2 SECTION 8: REPORT LIMITATIONS The findings, observations, conclusions, and recommendations of this report are limited by the technical requirements specified in the contract between A0705 Hilo, L.P. and ERA. The findings, observations, conclusions, and recommendations presented herein solely identify and evaluate evidence that may indicate that environmental hazards exist at the Site due to past or current management of chemicals or other materials that, if released or not properly controlled, could present a risk to human health or the environment. The Phase I ESA provides a “snap shot” of Site conditions at the time of the investigation. The assessment does not cover site changes that ERA could not reasonable ascertain. Additionally, it must be noted that no investigation can completely rule out the existence of any regulated or hazardous materials at a given Site. In preparing this report, ERA relied on information derived from visual reconnaissance, governmental agencies, computer databases, and personal interviews. Except as set forth in this report, ERA made no independent investigations as to the accuracy and completeness of the information derived from the listed sources. ERA assumed that all information obtained during the course of the investigation is accurate and complete. Although ERA did evaluate (to the extent reasonable) the historical use of adjacent properties (e.g., City Directory Search), ERA cannot guarantee that neighboring industries have not impacted the subject Site. ERA did not perform a complete environmental assessment of adjacent properties and it is possible that groundwater migration, overland flow or transport of contaminated particles via wind may have contaminated the Site. All findings, observations, conclusions, and recommendations stated in this report are based on facts; circumstances; applicable federal, state and local laws, rules, and regulations; and generally accepted national standards for such services in existence at the time that the report was prepared. Topics not explicitly discussed within this report should not be assumed to have been investigated or tested. ERA has prepared this document for the use and benefit of A0705 Hilo, L.P.

EXECUTIVE SUMMARY TC5554368.2s EXECUTIVE SUMMARY 6 Elevations have been determined from the USGS Digital Elevation Model and should be evaluated on a relative (not an absolute) basis. Relative elevation information between sites of close proximity should be field verified. Sites with an elevation equal to or higher than the target property have been differentiated below from sites with an elevation lower than the target property. Page numbers and map identification numbers refer to the EDR Radius Map report where detailed data on individual sites can be reviewed. Sites listed in bold italics are in multiple databases. Unmappable (orphan) sites are not considered in the foregoing analysis. STANDARD ENVIRONMENTAL RECORDS Federal CERCLIS NFRAP site list SEMS-ARCHIVE: SEMS-ARCHIVE (Superfund Enterprise Management System Archive) tracks sites that have no further interest under the Federal Superfund Program based on available information. The list was formerly known as the CERCLIS-NFRAP, renamed to SEMS ARCHIVE by the EPA in 2015. EPA may perform a minimal level of assessment work at a site while it is archived if site conditions change and/or new information becomes available. Archived sites have been removed and archived from the inventory of SEMS sites. Archived status indicates that, to the best of EPA’s knowledge, assessment at a site has been completed and that EPA has determined no further steps will be taken to list the site on the National Priorities List (NPL), unless information indicates this decision was not appropriate or other considerations require a recommendation for listing at a later time. The decision does not necessarily mean that there is no hazard associated with a given site; it only means that. based upon available information, the location is not judged to be potential NPL site. A review of the SEMS-ARCHIVE list, as provided by EDR, and dated 12/13/2018 has revealed that there is 1 SEMS-ARCHIVE site within approximately 0.5 miles of the target property.

Manufactured gas sites were used in the United States from the 1800’s to 1950’s to produce a gas that could be distributed and used as fuel. These plants used whale oil, rosin, coal, or a mixture of coal, oil, and water that also produced a significant amount of waste. Many of the byproducts of the gas production, such as coal tar (oily waste containing volatile and non-volatile chemicals), sludges, oils and other compounds are potentially hazardous to human health and the environment. The byproduct from this process was frequently disposed of directly at the plant site and can remain or spread slowly, serving as a continuous source of soil and groundwater contamination. A review of the EDR MGP list, as provided by EDR, has revealed that there is 1 EDR MGP site within approximately 1 mile of the target property.

The list was formerly known as the CERCLIS-NFRAP, renamed to SEMS ARCHIVE by the EPA in 2015. EPA may perform a minimal level of assessment work at a site while it is archived if site conditions change and/or new information becomes available. Archived sites have been removed and archived from the inventory of SEMS sites. Archived status indicates that, to the best of EPA’s knowledge, assessment at a site has been completed and that EPA has determined no further steps will be taken to list the site on the National Priorities List (NPL), unless information indicates this decision was not appropriate or other considerations require a recommendation for listing at a later time. The decision does not necessarily mean that there is no hazard associated with a given site; it only means that. based upon available information, the location is not judged to be potential NPL site.

The Risk Management Program Rule (RMP Rule) was written to implement Section 112(r) of these amendments. The rule, which built upon existing industry codes and standards, requires companies of all sizes that use certain flammable and toxic substances to develop a Risk Management Program, which includes a(n): Hazard assessment that details the potential effects of an accidental release, an accident history of the last five years, and an evaluation of worst-case and alternative accidental releases; Prevention program that includes safety precautions and maintenance, monitoring, and employee training measures; and Emergency response program that spells out emergency health care, employee training measures and procedures for informing the public and response agencies (e.g the fire department) should an accident occur.

Manufactured gas sites were used in the United States from the 1800’s to 1950’s to produce a gas that could be distributed and used as fuel. These plants used whale oil, rosin, coal, or a mixture of coal, oil, and water that also produced a significant amount of waste. Many of the byproducts of the gas production, such as coal tar (oily waste containing volatile and non-volatile chemicals), sludges, oils and other compounds are potentially hazardous to human health and the environment. The byproduct from this process was frequently disposed of directly at the plant site and can remain or spread slowly, serving as a continuous source of soil and groundwater contamination.

We further appreciate your July 12, 2021 email including the link to the Draft Environmental Assessment. The regulatory requirements of 24 CFR 58.4 require units of local governments to assume the responsibility for environmental review, decision- -making, and actions that would otherwise apply to the Department of Housing and Human Development (HUD) under the provisions of NEPA and other provisions of law that further the purposes of NEPA as responsible entities" . This includes section 7 of the Endangered Species Act of 1973 (16 U.S.C 1531 et seq.), as amended. The U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service (Service) understands that the County of Hawaii will administer Federal funding from HUD in support of this project and will therefore act as the responsible entity on behalf of HUD as it pertains to section 7 consultation with the Service The proposed development site (TMKs [3] 2-4-025: :048,053. ,080) is an undeveloped lot encompassing 5. .05 acres in Hilo, on the island of Hawai'i The project proponent, A0705 Hilo, L.P proposes to develop an affordable rental complex of 64 units, consisting of 32 two-bedroom units, an estimated 24 three -bedroom units, and an estimated 8 four-bedroom units in Hilo. The development will include a community center for resident use and at least 80 parking stalls. This location is already zoned for multi- -family Habitat consists mostly of nonnative trees and shrubs. This letter has been prepared under the authority of, and in accordance with provisions of the Endangered Species Act of 1973 (16 U.S.C. 1531 et seq.) as amended (ESA).

The Service provides the following comments to assist you in your planning process so that impacts to trust resources can be avoided through site preparation and construction Our data indicate the following federally listed species may occur or transit through the vicinity of the proposed project area: the threatened Hawaiian goose or nene (Branta sandvicensis), the endangered Hawaiian hoary bat or ope'ape' 'a (Lasiurus cinereus semotus), the endangered Hawaiian petrel or "ua' u (Pierodroma sandwicensis), the endangered Hawai' 'i distinct population segment of the band- -rumped storm- -petrel or ake' ake (Oceanodroma castro), the threatened Newell 's shearwater or a'o (Puffinus auricularis newellf), the endangered Hawaiian stilt or ae'o (Himantopus mexicanus knudseni), the endangered Hawaiian coot or alae ke' oke' o (Fulica alai), and the endangered Blackburn' 's sphinx moth (Manduca blackburni). The Hawaiian petrel, band- -rumped storm- -petrel, and Newell S shearwater will hereafter, collectively be referred to as Hawaiian seabirds," and the Hawaiian stilt and Hawaiian coot will be referred to as "Hawaiian 9 waterbirds." 'There is no critical habitat for listed species in the vicinity of this proposed project. The Hawaiian hawk or io (Buteo solitarius), a species that was recently removed from the Federal list of threatened and endangered species, is known to occur in the area, While the Service no longer consults on the Hawaiian hawk, this species is still protected under Hawaiian state regulations (H. R.S. $195D-4) and the Migratory Bird Treaty Act (16 U. S.C. 703-712) Please see our recommendations below and reference the aforementioned regulations for any additional consultation or mitigation requirements Hawaiian goose The Hawaiian goose is found on the islands of Hawai'i, Maui, Moloka'i, and Kaua*i. They are observed in a variety of habitats, but prefer open areas, such as pastures, golf courses, wetlands, natural grasslands and shrublands, and lava flows, Threats to the species include introduced mammalian and avian predators, wind energy facilities, and vehicle strikes To avoid and minimize potential project impacts to the Hawaiian goose we recommend you uncorporate the following measures into your project plan Do not approach, feed, or disturb the Hawaiian goose Ifa Hawaiian goose is observed loafing or foraging within the project area during the breeding season (September through April), have a biologist familiar with Hawaiian goose nesting behavior survey for nests in and around the project area prior to the resumption of any work. Repeat surveys after any subsequent delay of work of 3 or more days (during which the birds may attempt to nest) Cease all work immediately and contact the Service for further guidance if a nest is discovered within a radius of 150 feet (ft) of proposed project, or a previously undiscovered nest is found within the 150-ft radius after work begins. In areas where Hawaiian goose are known to be present, post and implement reduced speed limits, and inform project personnel and contractors about the presence of endangered species on-site Hawaiian hoary bat 3 Rachel Okoji The Hawaiian hoary bat roosts in both exotic and native woody vegetation across all islands and will leave young unattended in trees and shrubs when they forage. If trees or shrubs 15 ft or taller are cleared during the pupping season, there is a risk that young bats could inadvertently be harmed or killed since they are too young to fly or may not move away. Additionally, Hawaiian hoary bats forage for insects from as low as 3 ft to higher than 500 ft above the ground and can become entangled in barbed wire used for fencing, To avoid and minimize impacts to the endangered Hawaiian hoary bat we recommend you incorporate the following applicable measures into your project plan Do not disturb, remove, or trim woody plants greater than 15 ft tall during the bat birthing and pup- -rearing season (June I through September 15) Do not use barbed wire for fencing, Hawaiian seabirds Hawaiian seabirds may traverse the project area at night during the breeding, nesting and fledging seasons (March 1 to December 15). Outdoor lighting could result in seabird disorientation, fallout, and injury or mortality. Seabirds are attracted to lights and after circling the lights they may become exhausted and collide with nearby wires, buildings, or other structures or they may land on the ground. Downed seabirds are subject to increased mortality due to collision with automobiles, starvation, and predation by dogs, cats, and other predators. Young birds (fledglings) traversing the project area between September 15 and December 15, in their first flights from their mountain nests to the sea, are particularly vulnerable to light attraction To avoid and minimize potential project impacts to seabirds we recommend you incorporate the following measures into your project plan Fully shield all outdoor lights so the bulb can only be seen from below. Install automatic motion sensor switches and controls on all outdoor lights or turn off lights when human activity is not occurring in the lighted area Avoid nighttime construction during the seabird fledging period, September 15 through December 15 Hawaiian waterbirds Hawaiian waterbirds are currently found in a variety of wetland habitats including freshwater marshes and ponds, coastal estuaries and ponds, artificial reservoirs, Colocasia esculenta (kalo or taro) lo' i or patches, irrigation ditches, sewage treatment ponds. Hawaiian stilts mnay also be found wherever ephemeral or persistent standing water may occur, Threats to these species include nonnative predators, habitat loss, and habitat degradation Based on the project details provided, your project may result in the creation of standing water or open water that could attract Hawaian waterbirds to the project site. In particular, the Hawaiian stilt is known to nest in sub-optimal locations (c.gr, any ponding water), if water is present. Hawaiian waterbirds attracted to sub-optimal habitat may suffer adverse impacts, such as predation and reduced reproductive success, and thus the project may create an attractive nuisance. Therefore, we recommend you work with our office during project planning so that we Rachel Okoji 4 may assist you in developing measures to avoid impacts to listed species (e.g fencing, vegetation control, predator management) To avoid and minimize potential project impacts to Hawaiian waterbirds we recommend you incorporate the following applicable measures into your project plan In areas where waterbirds are known to be present, post and implement reduced speed limits, and inform project personnel and contractors about the presence of endangered species on-site If water resources are located within or adjacent to the project site, incorporate applicable best management practices regarding work in aquatic environments into the project design (see enclosed Aquatic Best Management Practices) Have a biological monitor that is familiar with the species' biology conduct Hawaiian waterbird nest surveys where appropnate habitat occurs within the vicinity of the proposed project site prior to project initiation. Repeat surveys again within 3 days of project initiation and after any subsequent delay of work of 3 or more days (during which the birds may attempt to nest). If a nest or active brood is found o Contact the Service within 48 hours for further guidance Establish and maintain a 100- -ft buffer around all active nests and/or broods until 0 the chicks have fledged. Do not conduct potentially disruptive activities or habitat alteration within this buffer o Have a biological monitor that is familiar with the species' biology present on the project site during all construction or earth moving activities until the chicks fledge to ensure that Hawaiian waterbirds and nests are not adversely impacted. Blackburn' 's sphinx moth The adult Blackburn' 's sphinx moth feeds on nectar from native plants, including Ipomoea pes caprae(beach morning glory), Plumbago zeylanica( ilie'e), Capparis sandwichiana (maiapilo) and others. Blackburn' 's sphinx moth larvae feed on nonnative Nicotiana glauca (tree tobacco), and native, federally listed, Nothocestrum spp. ("aiea). To pupate, the larvae burrow into the soil and can remain in a state of torpor for a year or more before emerging from the soil. Soil disturbance can result in death of the pupae We offer the following survey recommendations to assess whether the Blackburn' 's sphinx moth occurs within the project area A biologist familiar with the species should survey areas of proposed activities for Blackburn' 's sphinx moth and its larval host plants prior to work initiation. o Surveys should be conducted during the wettest portion of the year (usually November- -to-April or several weeks after a significant rain) and within 4-to-6 weeks prior to construction Surveys should include searches for adults, eggs, larvae, and signs of larval feeding (i.e. ,chewed stems, frass, or leaf damage) If moths, eggs, larvae, or native aiea or tree tobacco over 3-ft tall, are found 0 during the survey, please contact the Service for additional guidance to avoid umpacts to this species 5 Rachel Okoji aiea, or tree tobacco are found during surveys, it is imperative If no Blackburn' 's sphinx moth that measures be taken to avoid attraction of Blackburn' s sphinx moth to the project location and prohibit tree tobacco from entering the site. Tree tobacco can grow greater than 3.- -ft tall in approximately 6 weeks. If it grows over 3- -ft tall, the plants may become a host plant for Blackburn' s sphinx moth. We therefore recommend that you Remove any tree tobacco less than 3- -ft tall Monitor the Site every 4-to-6 weeks for new tree tobacco growth before, during, and after the proposed ground-disturbing activity Monitoring for tree tobacco can be completed by any staff, such as groundskeeper or regular maintenance crew, provided with picture placards of tree tobacco at different life stages Hawaiian hawk The Hawaiian hawk was recently federally delisted but remains a listed species under Hawai'i State law. The Hawaiian hawk is known to occur across a broad range of forest habitats throughout the island of Hawai'i. Loud, irregular and unpredictable activities, such as using heavy equipment or building a structure, near an endangered Hawaiian hawk nest may cause nest failure. Harassment of Hawaiian hawk nesting sites can alter feeding and breeding patterns or result in nest or chick abandonment. Nest disturbance can also increase exposure of chicks and juveniles to inclement weather or predators To avoid and minimize impacts to Hawaiian hawks we recommend you incorporate the following applicable measures into your project plan If work must be conducted between March 1 through September 30, during the Hawaiian hawk breeding season, have a biologist familiar with the species conduct a nest search of the project footprint and surrounding areas immediately prior to the start of construction activities o Pre-disturbance surveys for Hawaiian hawks are only valid for 14 days. If disturbance for the specific location does not occur within 14 days of the survey conduct another survey Clearing of vegetation or construction activities should not occur within 1,600 ft of any active Hawalian hawk nest during the breeding season until the young have fledged Regardless of the time of year, avoid trimming or cutting trees containing a hawk nest, as nests may be re- -used during consecutive breeding seasons Other Measures to Reduce Mortality of Listed Animal Species Additional measures for housing developments common to all listed animal species that will reduce mortality or predation include the following Post and enforce low speed limits to reduce vehicle collisions with wildlife. pets, including cats and dogs, to be on leash at all times outside Require all Require garbage cans with lids to reduce populations of rats and mongoose, which are invasive species and prey upon native and endangered species Provide signage instructing residents and visitors to avoid approaching, feeding, or disturbing wildlife 6 Rachel Okoji The Service recommends incorporating all applicable avoidance and minimization measures into If you determine the your project design to avoid and minimize effects on protected species proposed project may affect federally listed species, we recommend you contact our office early in the planning process so that we may assist you with ESA compliance. We appreciate your efforts to conserve protected species.

Best Management Practices (BMPs) include the incorporation of procedures or materials that may be used to reduce either direct or indirect negative impacts to aquatic habitats that result from project construction-related activities. These BMPs are recommended in addition to, and do not over- -ride any terms, conditions, or other recommendations prepared by the USFWS, other federal, state or local agencies. If you have questions concerning these BMPs, please contact the USFWS Aquatic Ecosystems Conservation Program at 808- -792-9400 1, Authorized dredging and filling- -related activities that may result in the temporary or permanent loss of aquatic habitats should be designed to avoid indirect, negative impacts to aquatic habitats beyond the planned project area. 2. Dredging/filling in the marine environment should be scheduled to avoid coral spawning and recruitment periods, and sea turtle nesting and hatching periods. Because these periods are variable throughout the Pacific islands, we recommend contacting the relevant local, state, or federal fish and wildlife resource agency for site specific guidance 3. Turbidity and siltation from project- -related work should be minimized and contained within the project area by silt containment devices and curtailing work during flooding or adverse tidal and weather conditions, BMPs should be maintained for the life of the construction period until turbidity and siltation within the project area is stabilized. All project construction- -related debris and sediment containment devices should be removed and disposed of at an approved site. 4. All project construction-related materials and equipment (dredges, vessels, backhoes, silt curtains, etc.) to be placed in an aquatic environment should be inspected for pollutants including, but not limited to; marine fouling organisms, grease, oil, etc., and cleaned to remove pollutants pnor to use. Project related activities should not result in any debris disposal, non-native species introductions, or attraction of non- -native pests to the affected or adjacent aquatic or terrestrial habitats. Implementing both a litter-control plan and a Hazard Analysis and Critical Control Point plan (HACCP see https://www fws gov/policy/A1750fw1 html) can help to prevent attraction and introduction of non- -native species 5. Project construction- -related materials (fill revetment rock. pipe, etc.) should not be stockpiled in or in close proximity to aquatic habitats and should be protected from erosion (e.g.; with filter fabric, etc.), to prevent materials from being carried into waters by wind, rain, or high surf 6. Fueling of project- related vehicles and equipment should take place away from the aquatic environment and a contingency plan to control petroleum products accidentally spilled during the project should be developed. The plan should be retained on site with the person responsible for compliance with the plan. Absorbent pads and containment booms should be stored on-site to facilitate the clean-up of accidental petroleum releases 7. All deliberately exposed soil or under-layer materials used in the project near water should be protected from erosion and stabilized as soon as possible with geotextile, filter fabric or native or non-invasive vegetation matting, hydro- -seeding, etc Exhibit 8: Explosive and Flammable Hazards Environmental Risk Analysis LLC 905A Makahiki Way, Honolulu, Hawaii 96826 www.enviroriskhawaii.com July 16, 2019 State of Hawaii Department of Defense 3949 Diamond Head Road Honolulu, Hawaii 96816 Subject: Environmental Assessment for the Kaiaulu O Kapiolani Housing Development TMKs: (3) 2-4-025:048, :053, :080, Hilo, Hawaii Dear Sir or Madam, Environmental Risk Analysis LLC is conducting an Environmental Assessment to evaluate potential environmental impacts associated with the construction and operation of a proposed housing development on unimproved real property known as Tax Map Keys (TMK) (3) 2-4-025:048, :053, :080 in Hilo, Hawaii on the island of Hawaii. The proposed action is to build a total of 64 units of affordable housing. The property will consist of a total of 9 buildings, 8 of which will be residential, with one being a community center. The project will be funded in part by the Hawaii Housing Finance and Development Corporation in the form of Federal and State Low Income Housing Tax Credits (LIHTC), Tax Exempt Bonds, and the State’s Rental Housing Revolving Funds. The tax credits will generate equity investment into the project. These units will address the critical housing shortage issue on the island of Hawaii, and specifically to the city of Hilo. Due to the overwhelming demand for affordable housing, A0705 Hilo, L.P. (project proponent) proposes the Kaiaulu O Kapiolani project for the potential to improve the quality of life for residents that cannot afford homes in the area. As the proposed project is in a developed area and has a low potential for adverse environmental impacts, ERA anticipates a Finding of No Significant Impact.

(SCS) conducted an Archaeological Inventory Survey (AIS) of a 0.6447-acre parcel [TMK: (3) 2-4-025:080] in Kūkūau 1st Ahupa‘a, South Hilo District, Hawai‘i Island to identify historic properties within the project area. Parcel 080 is an easement located southeast of Kūkūau Street that is bounded to the north by Kūkūau Street, to the east by undeveloped land (Parcel 048), and by residential properties to the south and west. The AIS was conducted as supporting documentation required for the proposed Office of Housing and Community Development (OHCD) Kaiāulu o Kapi‘olani Affordable Housing Project within TMK: (3) 2-4-025: 048, 053 and 080. The development will include nine residential buildings containing 32 two-bedroom units, 24 three-bedroom units, and 8 four- bedroom units, access roads, and a community center and 117-stall parking lot. The proposed undertaking will include grubbing, grading and trenching for utilities. The proposed project is a private project undertaken on private land, using private funding, under the direction of the OHCD, requiring County of Hawai‘i and Hawai‘i state approvals/permits, and is subject to Hawai‘i Revised Statutes (HRS) 6E-42 historic preservation review. The proposed OHCD project will receive partial federal funding from the U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD) and is considered a federal action and undertaking, as defined in Title 36 of the Code of Federal Regulations (CFR) Part 800.16(y) and is subject to Section 106 of the National Historic Preservation Act (NHPA) of 1966, as amended (2006). Under 24 CFR Part 58 Section 5 of 1998, as amended (2003), OHCD is the entity responsible for compliance with environmental requirements including those relating to NHPA and Section 106. A pedestrian survey of TMK: (3) 2-4-025:080 was conducted on July 11, 2019 by SCS Senior Archaeologists Glenn Escott M.A. and Suzan Escott, B.A. There were no historic properties identified within TMK: (3) 2-4-025:080. As there were no archaeological sites identified within the current project area (TMK: (3) 2-4- 025:080), and Site 25547 previously recorded within TMK: (3) 2-4-025:048 was adequately documented during the Nelson et al. (2006) AIS study and no further work was recommended for Site 25547 (Nelson et al. 2006:18), these findings support a project effect determination of no historic properties directly affected the proposed affordable housing. Given that the project area is surrounded by existing rental housing, modern residential neighborhoods, the police station, businesses, paved roads, sidewalks, and overhead utility lines, these findings support a project determination of no added visual effect on the existing historic properties located within one-half mile of the project area. These findings support a project effect determination of “No historic properties affected” pursuant to HAR §13-284-7(a)(1) and no historic properties affected pursuant to 36 CFR 800.4(d)(1). 1 INTRODUCTION PROJECT AREA DESCRIPTION Scientific Consultant Services, Inc. (SCS) conducted an Archaeological Inventory Survey (AIS) of a 0.6447-acre parcel [TMK: (3) 2-4-025:080] in Kūkūau 1st Ahupa‘a, South Hilo District, Hawai‘i Island to identify historic properties within the project area (Figures 1 through 4). Parcel 080 is an easement located southeast of Kūkūau Street and is owned by Giampaolo Boschetti. Parcel 080 is bounded to the north by Kūkūau Street, to the east by undeveloped land (Parcel 048), and by residential properties to the south and west. Parcel 080 is situated at 95 feet (29 meters) above mean sea level on level land. The AIS was conducted under contract to Urban Housing Communities, LLC. In response to Hawai‘i Island’s affordable housing needs, the Office of Housing and Community Development (OHCD) and the developer are proposing to build a 64- unit low-income housing development on TMK: (3) 2-4-025: 048, 053 and 080 (Figure 5). The development will include nine residential buildings containing 32 two-bedroom units, 24 three-bedroom units, and 8 four-bedroom units, access roads, and a community center and 117-stall parking lot. The proposed undertaking will include grubbing, grading and trenching for utilities. The proposed project is a private project undertaken on private land, using private funding, under the direction of the OHCD, requiring County of Hawai‘i and Hawai‘i state approvals/permits, and is subject to Hawai‘i Revised Statutes (HRS) 6E-42 historic preservation review. The proposed OHCD project will receive partial federal funding from the U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD) and is considered a federal action and undertaking, as defined in Title 36 of the Code of Federal Regulations (CFR) Part 800.16(y) and is subject to Section 106 of the National Historic Preservation Act (NHPA) of 1966, as amended (2006). Under 24 CFR Part 58 Section 5 of 1998, as amended (2003), OHCD is the entity responsible for compliance with environmental requirements including those relating to NHPA and Section 106. 2 Figure 1: 5,500 K-Series Map of Hawai‘i Showing Location of Project Area (National Geographic Topo!, 2003.

(Google Earth, 2013 Image. Data Sources: Digital Globe, GeoEye, Earthstar, USDA, and USGS). 6 Figure 5: Proposed Kaiāulu o Kapi‘olani Affordable Housing Project Site Plan Showing AA Project Area. 7 Rechtman Consulting, LLC conducted an AIS within TMK: (3) 3-2-4-025:048, 050, 052, 053, 059 (por.), 078 (por.), 080 (por.), 093, 106 (por.), 107 (por.), 108 (por.), 109 (por.), 110 (por.), 115 (por.), and 129 (por.) Parcels 048 and 053 (Nelson et al. 2006). The Nelson et al. (2006) AIS project area included the entirety of parcels 048 and 053, and a narrow corridor bisecting Parcel 080 (see Figure 6). The proposed affordable housing project area includes all of parcels 048, 053 and 080. No historic properties were identified within Parcel 080 during the current AIS fieldwork. The negative findings are presented in this Archaeological Assessment Report (AA) pursuant to HAR §13-284-5 that includes summaries of study methods, a project area description and maps, environmental background, cultural and historical background research, previous archaeological studies, project area study findings, significance and integrity assessments, and recommendations. The negative findings support a project effect determination of “No historic properties affected” pursuant to HAR §13-284- 7(a)(1). METHODS The archaeological inventory survey was undertaken in accordance with Hawai‘i Administrative Rules 13§13-284 and was performed in compliance with the Rules Governing Minimal Standards for Archaeological Inventory Surveys and Reports contained in Hawai‘i Administrative Rules 13§13-276. The investigation included the following procedures: 1. SCS conducted historical and archaeological archival research including a search of historic maps, aerial photos, written records, Land Commission Award documents, State and County Planning and Tax Records documents, and previous archaeological reports. 2. SCS carried out a 100% pedestrian survey of the project area. 3. SCS documented the results of all research and fieldwork in this report. Prior to fieldwork, a search of geological maps, aerial photos, historical maps, historical documents, land-use records, and previous archaeological reports was conducted at the SHPD Hilo office library, the University of Hawai‘i – Hilo Mookini library, the County of Hawai‘i Planning Department website, the County of Hawai‘i Real Property Tax Office website, and the Hawai‘i Department of Accounting and General Services map website. 8 Figure 6: TMK: (3) 2-4-025 Map Showing Location of Nelson et al. (2006) Project Area and Current Project Area (Adapted from Nelson et al. 2006: 3). 9 A pedestrian survey was conducted on July 11, 2019 by SCS Senior Archaeologists Glenn Escott M.A. and Suzan Escott, B.A. The fieldwork took a total of 14 person-hours to complete. A series of northeast/southwest transects spaced one meter apart were walked across the entire project area. Ground cover consisted of mown grass, trees and some low ferns and bushes. Ground visibility was fair. Glenn Escott was the principal investigator and project director for the current study. This report contains background information outlining the project area environmental and cultural contexts, a presentation of previous archaeological work within the study area and in the immediate vicinity, current survey expectations based on the previous work, and survey results. ENVIRONMENTAL SETTING The project area is situated on level to moderately sloping land at 95 feet (29 meters) above mean sea level (amsl). The project area substrate is a Mauna Loa lava flow dated between 750 and 1,500 years ago (Wolfe and Morris 1996). Soil in the project area is Keaukaha Series (rKFD) extremely rocky muck overlaying pāhoehoe lava (Sato 1973:27). The soil is thin and well drained with 6% to 20% slopes. Annual rainfall ranges from 120 to 160 inches and drains toward the east (Giambelluca et al. 2013). There is a narrow drainage area that bisects the middle of the property. Plant communities in the project are dominated by trees, grasses, ferns, and bushes. Tree species include gunpowder (Trema orientalis), autograph (Clusia rosea), banyan (Ficus sp.), guava (Psidium sp.), and bingabing (Macaranga mappa). 10 Figure 7: Hawai‘i Island Soil Survey Map Showing Location of Project Area and Soil Series Types (Adapted from Sato et al. 1973, Plate 74). 11 HISTORICAL AND CULTURAL CONTEXTS Many archaeologists believe that Hawai‘i Island was first settled around A.D. 1,000 by people sailing from the Marquesas (Athens et al. 2014; Dye 2011; Kahn et al. 2014; Kirch 2011; Kirch and McCoy 2007; Mulrooney et al. 2011; Reith et al. 2011; Wilmhurst et al. 2011a and 2011b). An article published in the Journal of Archaeological Science reviewing radiocarbon dates recovered at archaeological sites on the Island of Hawai‘i suggests that, by relying on only carbon samples from short-lived plant remains, the most reliable dates point to initial Polynesian colonization of Hawai‘i Island occurring between A.D. 1220 and 1261 (Rieth et al. 2011:2747). Hilo was, by most estimates, one of the first settlements on the Island of Hawai‘i. The rich marine resources of the Hilo Bay area and the gently sloping forests of Mauna Loa and Mauna Kea provided abundant resources. Fresh water was available from the Wailoa and Wailuku rivers and smaller streams such as Waiākea, Waiolama, Pukihae, and ‘Alenaio. PRE-CONTACT ACCOUNTS OF HILO AND PUNA DISTRICTS The earliest account of the Hilo Bay area appears in ‘Umi-a-Liloa’s (1600–1620) conquest of the Island of Hawai‘i, which establishes Hilo as a royal center by the sixteenth century. In the account, ‘Umi-a-Liloa began his conquest of the Island of Hawai‘i by defeating chief Kulukulu‘ā, who lived in Waiākea, and the other chiefs of Hilo (Kamakau 1992:16–17). ‘Umi-a-Liloa’s second son, Keawe-nui-a-‘Umi, ruled Hāmākua, Hilo, and Puna from his residence at Hilo (ibid: 34). It was from Hilo that he waged war on the Kona chiefs and unified the island. Keawe-nui-a-‘Umi’s descendants single handedly continued rule for many generations from Hilo. After the death of Keawe-nui-a-‘Umi the kingdom was divided into three parts and was established under warring chiefs; Hilo was ruled by Kumalae-nui-pu`awa-lau and his son Makua (Kamakau 1992: 45). It was during the period of time that Kamehameha I was born. Kalani‘ōpu‘u’s grandson, Keoua Kuahu‘ula and nephew Kamehameha vied for control over the six chiefdoms constituting the island kingdom and Keoua conquered Hilo chief Keawe-mau-hili and harvested the benefits for a short time only to be killed by Kamehameha late in 1791. Kamehameha’s son Liholiho was born in Hilo in November 1797 (ibid:22). 12 EARLY HISTORIC ACCOUNTS OF HILO Early accounts of settlements along the windward shores describe the area as divided into several distinct environmental regions (Ellis 1963: 291-292). At Hilo Bay, from the coast to a distance of five or six miles inland, scattered subsistence agriculture was evident, followed by a region of tall fern and bracken, flanked at higher elevations by a forest region between 10 and 20 miles wide, beyond which was an expanse of grass and lava (Ibid:403). A map of Hilo Bay drawn by Malden in 1825 shows an area of agricultural fields inland of the bay (Figure 8) The American Missionary C.S. Stewart wrote in 1825, “the first four miles of the country is open and uneven, and beautifully sprinkled with clumps, groves, and single trees of the bread-fruit, pandanus, and candle tree” (Stewart 1970:361-363). The majority of inhabitants in 1825 lived within this coastal region. Taro, plantains, bananas, coconuts, sweet potatoes, and breadfruit were grown individually or in small garden plots. Fish, pig, dog, and birds were also raised and captured for consumption. Wood, such as ‘ōhi‘a and koa for house construction, canoe building, and fires was obtained from the upland agricultural zone (McEldowney 1979:18-19), and from the dense forests above (Ellis 1963:236). THE MĀHELE OF 1848 AND LAND COMMISSION AWARDS Article IV of the Board of Commissioners to Quiet Land Titles was passed in December 1845 and began the legal process of private land ownership. The Māhele (1848-1850) established a board of five commissioners to oversee land claims and to issue patents and leases for valid claims. Many scholars believe that Kauikeaouli (Kamehameha III) established laws intended to protect Hawaiian sovereignty and crown lands from foreigners who had already begun claiming ownership of land they were granted permission to use for homes and business interests (Daws 1968:111; Kame‘eleihiwa 1992: 169-70, 176; Kelly 1983: 45; Kuykendall 1938(1): 145 footnote 47, 152, 165-6, 170). Among other things, the foreigners were demanding private ownership of land to secure their island investments, particularly agricultural and ranching ventures (Kuykendall 1938(1): 138, 145, 178, 184, 202, 206, 271; Kame‘eleihiwa 1992: 178). 13 Figure 8: Portion of 1825 Map of Hilo Bay and Project Area Location (Malden 1825). 14 As legal statutes defining the Māhele continued to be enacted from 1845 to 1850, the lands of the kingdom of Hawai‘i were divided among the king (crown lands), the ali‘i and konohiki, and the government. Once lands were thus divided and private ownership was instituted, the maka`āinana (commoners), if they had been made aware of the procedures, were able to claim the plots on which they had been cultivating and living as stipulated in the Kuleana Act (1850). These claims, however, could not include any previously cultivated or presently fallow land, ‘okipu‘u (forest clearing created to allow sunlight to reach the forest floor), stream fisheries, or many other resources traditionally necessary for survival (Kame‘eleihiwa 1992:295; Kelly 1983:45-76; Kirch and Sahlins 1992 vol.1:3, 135-137, and vol. 2:2). The right of claimants to land was based on the written testimony of at least two witnesses who could corroborate the claimant’s long-standing occupation and use of the lot(s) in question. The claimant was then awarded a patent for the property, subsequently called Land Commission Awards (LCAs) (Chinen 1961:16). Prior to the Māhele, Kūkūau 1st Ahupua‘a belonged to King Kamehameha I and was Crown Lands during the Māhele of 1848. John Young’s son Keoni Ana was awarded 9,360 acres of land within Kūkūau 1st in 1851 as part of Land Commission Award (LCA) 8515. Nine smaller LCAs were awarded within Kūkūau 1st Ahupua‘a (Table 1 and Figure 9). Table 1: Land Commission Awards in Waiākea Ahupua‘a. Award To LCA Description Papa 00513 2 houses Puniono 02606 0.93 acres, 2 house lots & 1 cultivated plot Kahue 02663 3.75 acres Kahue 02664 0.34 acres Aiko 03205 2 lots: 0.55 acres and 0.46 acres Haoleopunui 03206 2.48 acres Hoomoo 03993 2.06 acres, 1 house Ana 08815 9,360 acres Kanakaole 11045B 3 houses Ouluihi, wahine 11144 1 ‘apana 15 Figure 9: Portion of 1891 Hilo Property Title Map Showing Project Area Location and Eastern Kūkūau 1st Ahupua‘a Land Commission Awards (Baldwin 1891). 16 The Land Commission awards were small in area, between 0.34 and 3.75 acres, and the majority of awards were made to native claimants. Most of the awards are makai (east) of the current project area. The project area parcel is not associated with any LCA. The LCAs closest to the project area were awarded in Kūkūau 1st Ahupua‘a and Waiākea Ahupua‘a, just south of the current project area (see Figure 9). From testimony given by LCA claimants, it is clear that the awards included house lots and agricultural lots under cultivation. The only references to cultigens given in the testimonies are hala (Pandanus tectorius) and kalo (Colocasia esculenta). There are also references to uncultivated “wastelands” of pāhoehoe lava in the region of the project area lands. CHANGING RESIDENTIAL AND LAND-USE PATTERNS (1845-1865) Between 1845 and 1865 traditional land-use and residential patterns underwent a dramatic change. In particular, the regular use of Hilo Bay by foreign vessels, the whaling industry, the establishment of missions in the Hilo area, the introduction of the sandalwood trade, the legalization of private land ownership, the introduction of cattle ranching, and the introduction of sugar cane cultivation all brought about changes in settlement patterns and long-established land-use patterns (Kelly et al. 1981). Hilo became the center of population and settlements in outlying regions declined or disappeared. The area of Hilo continued to develop as a commercial port throughout the twentieth century. Hilo Bay Front area became a store front venue, while the outlying regions were developed as industrial parks, shopping malls, and residential neighborhoods. The historical events at Hilo have received significant attention and presentation elsewhere (Desha 2000; Kelly et al. 1981; George 1948; Leithead 1974). Those events and trends that do or may relate directly to the project area are synthesized below. A synthesis of research into relevant newspaper articles conducted by Kent Warshauer provides a chronology of historical events associated with the project area (Table 1). Sandalwood was being shipped out of Hilo Bay in the first 20 years of the 19th century (Kelly et al. 1981:25). In April of 1822, the first missionary, Auna, a Tahitian, preached in Hilo. Many other missionaries soon followed. Whaling ships are documented as docking at Hilo by at least 1824. Whaling declined precipitously in the mid 1800s due to depredations by the U.S. Confederate fleet, increased use worldwide of 17 kerosene, and increased cost of outfitting, among other things (George 1948:32). Whaling hobbled on in the islands, and the wreck of the Tamerlane in 1892 marks the end of commercial whaling in the area (Rogers 1999). Table 2: Events Associated with the Project Area.

Waiākea had no frame buildings, just a few grass homes (after the tidal wave of 1877)” (Leithead 1974:59). The industrial and commercial concerns began to expand in the Wailoa River vicinity. Markets, landings, agriculture, and milling soon flourished in the Waiākea side of the bay (Kelly et al. 1981; Leithead 1974). Habitation then increased in the Waiākea area on the heels of the industrial developments in the late 1800s and early 1900s. By 1901 sugar dominated the island’s industry, and Hilo was the epicenter of production and export. Railroads connected sugar factors along the Hāmākua and Puna coasts to the mills and wharves at Hilo. An important spur of the railroad line connected the switch yard to the wharf. The first pier at Kuhio Wharf was built between 1912 and 1916 (Kelly et al. 1981:194). A second was added in 1923. The railroad began operation in the Hilo area in 1899, and was abandoned in 1946 (Kelly et al. 1981). The first railroad to wharf connection was at the mouth of the Wailoa River. Railroad and sugar expansion coincided with one another, although not always productively (Kelly et al. 1981:154). The tsunami of 1946 struck Hilo Bay just as one train was passing through the project area. The Alenaio canal was created to facilitate the filling of the lowlands near the ocean that had once been fishponds and taro fields just to the west and beyond the project area. It was upgraded with stone walls in 1917 (Kelly et al. 1981:220). Black sand from the beach was pumped up into the Waiolama swamps to fill them (Kelly et al. 1981:223). Removing beach sand to Waiolama swamp partially undermined the railroad. When the sand dredging started for the nearby Ponahawai taro and pond filling, the railroad company complained, and the dredging stopped (Kelly et al. 1981:224). Dredging started up again in 1922, and 31,763 cubic yards of black sand was then taken from the shoreline and placed in the Ponahawai drainage (Kelly et al. 1981:225). “Altogether, between the years 1917 to 1923, a total or roughly 250,000 cubic yards of fine black-lava sand from the beach at Hilo Bay was pumped…” into the interior wetlands (Kelly et al. 1981:225). 19 Banyan Drive was built in the early 1930’s, and soon thereafter banyan trees were planted in regular intervals on both sides of the drive (Warshauer 2003b, 2004). The first banyan tree was planted in 1933 (Warshauer 2003b) The last tree was planted in 1972 by Mrs. Richard Nixon to replace one that was planted previously in 1952, but that had been destroyed by “seismic sea wave” in 1952 (Warshauer 2004:D3). Some trees that have been destroyed have not been replanted. PREVIOUS ARCHAEOLOGICAL STUDIES At least fourteen archaeological studies were conducted in the area near the current project area (Figure 10 and Table 2). Six studies included portions of Kūkūau 1st Ahupua‘a (Kelly & Athens 1982, Nelson et al. 2006, Rosendahl 1988, Rechtman 2009, Wickler & Ward 1992, and Wilkinson et al. 2012). There were no archaeological sites identified in the vast majority of previous archaeological studies. This is not surprising since much of the area within Hilo town has been developed. It is likely that many archaeological remains have been disturbed and obscured by construction activities associated with modern development (Hudson 1932:226). Thrum (1907) and Stokes and Dye (1991) documented heiau located on the Island of Hawai‘i. Many of the heiau in the Hilo area had been dismantled by the time Thrum conducted his study. There were no heiau remaining in Kūkūau 1st Ahupua‘a when Thrum conducted his study. Only five of the fourteen previous archaeology studies documented a few archaeological sites (see Table 2). Walker and Rosendahl (1996) recorded five historic sugarcane sites, including Waiakea Sugar Plantation field features and remains from the old Hilo Sugar Company mill. Pre-Contact era to early post-Contact era artifacts were recovered from one feature, indicating a pre-Contact to early post-Contact component. No radiocarbon samples were dated. The plantation field features and artifacts were identified south of Hāla‘i Hill in Ponahawai Ahupua‘a, outside of the current project area (see Figure 10). The old Hilo Sugar Company mill site is north of the current project area, though the mill is no longer present, and more modern structures have been built over the site. 20 Figure 10: 7.5-Minute Series USGS Topographic Map Showing Location of Project Area Shaded Yellow and Previous Archaeological Studies (National Geographic Topo!, 2003, USGS Hilo Quadrangle). 21 Table 3: Previous Archaeological Studies Near the Project Area.

Wolforth (2006) recorded the Kanakea Fishpond, pecked basins, and three historic sites, all of which north of the current project area. 22 A single set of burial remains were identified by Smith and Tourtellotte (1988) 2.0km northeast of the current project area, at the mouth of the Wailoa River. The burial site location is not plotted on Figure 10 as it is a culturally sensitive site. None of the previously identified archaeological sites will be affected by the current undertaking. Rechtman Consulting, LLC conducted an AIS study (Nelson et al. 2006) adjacent to the current project area that included a narrow study corridor bisecting the current project area (see Figure 1 and Figure 11). A single archaeological site (Site #50-10-35- 25547) was recorded within TMK: (3) 2-4-025: 048 (Figure 12 and Figure 13). Site 25547 is a 24.0 m long (NE/SW) by 2.0 m wide by 2.0 m high Historic era linear enclosure constructed along a naturally occurring crack in a raised pāhoehoe bedrock outcrop (Nelson et al. 2006:12). The bedrock crack has been modified in three locations by stacking cobbles along the sides and across the middle of the crack (see Figure 13). The enclosure was likely constructed to keep animals. Site 25547 appeared to be unaltered and was in good condition. Site 25547 was assessed as significant under Criterion d, as having, or likely to yield information important to Historic era animal husbandry features. The integrity of Site 25547 was not assessed in the Nelson et al (2006) AIS report. It was determined that Site 25547 was adequately documented during the Nelson et al. (2006) study and, thus, no further work was recommended for Site 25547 (Nelson et al. 2006:18). The AIS report was approved by the Hawai‘i State Historic Division (SHPD) (Log No. 2006.3275, Doc. No. 0609JT83, Approval Letter dated September 28, 2006). 23 Figure 11: TMK: (3) 2-4-025 Map Showing Location of Nelson et al.

The records search was conducted at the SHPD Hilo office. The results of the records search indicate that there are nineteen historic properties listed on the Hawai‘i Register of Historic Places (HRHP) (Table 3 and Figure 14). Two of those sites are also listed on the NRHP. The historic properties include two historic districts, several church buildings, schools, commercial buildings, homes, and a Portuguese oven. Many of the buildings are characteristic of period style architecture. Table 4: Inventory of Registered Historic Properties Within a 0.5 Mile Search Radius.

The Serrao Winery building is constructed of stone (Figure 15). All of the sites listed on the HRHP and the NRHP within 0.5-mile radius of the project area/ APE are surrounded by the modern built environment including private residential neighborhoods, condominiums and rental housing, commercial businesses, paved roads, sidewalks and utility poles and lines (Figure 16). The proposed affordable housing buildings will not be larger in area or height than nearby existing buildings. Given that the project area is surrounded by existing condominium and rental housing, commercial businesses, the Hilo police station and Department of Motor Vehicle offices, modern residential neighborhoods, paved roads, sidewalks, and overhead utility lines, it is likely that the proposed affordable housing project will have no added visual effect on the existing historic properties located within one-half mile of the project area. EXPECTED ARCHAEOLOGICAL PATTERNS Based on previous archaeological studies, historical research, and land-use records, site types on the current project can be predicted to consist primarily of pre- Contact era to Historic era agricultural features including agricultural rock clearing mounds, rock walls, and agricultural terraces. Habitation features, such as enclosures and platforms are less likely to be located on the current project area. Though, it is possible that traditional Hawaiian pre-Contact era sites might have existed in the region, previous archaeological investigations have shown that Historic era to Modern era activities have often removed them from the landscape. PEDESTRIAN SURVEY RESULTS A pedestrian survey was conducted on July 11, 2019 by SCS Senior Archaeologists Glenn Escott M.A. and Suzan Escott, B.A. A series of northeast/southwest transects spaced one meter apart were walked across the entire project area. Most of Parcel 080 is a partially paved dirt road with vegetation along the edges and within the southern portion of the parcel where there is no road. Ground cover consisted of mown grass, trees and some low ferns and bushes (Figure 17 through Figure 20). It was possible to see the ground surface beneath the ferns where vegetation existed. Ground visibility was fair. 29 Figure 15: Photograph of Site #50-10-35-07436 Serrao Winery Building Looking Northwest. 30 Figure 16: Aerial Photograph Showing Project Area and Surrounding Land-Use, Hilo, HI, Zone 5 North, 281420 m E, 2181994 m N. (Google Earth, 2013 Image. Data Sources: Digital Globe, GeoEye, Earthstar, USDA, and USGS). Un-shaded Structures are Residential Dwellings. 31 TMK: (3) 2-4-025:080 is a private access easement with a partially paved driveway down the center of the parcel. The driveway provides access for residential homes on property along the west and south boundaries of Parcel 080. There is a modern drainage culvert constructed in the 1970s that crosses the center of Parcel 080 from the west to east. The culvert is constructed of three 36 inch diameter galvanized pipes within rock and cement foundation (Figure 19). No archaeological sites or features were located within the project area. CONCLUSION As there were no archaeological sites identified within the current project area (TMK: (3) 2-4-025:080), and as Site 25547 located within TMK: (3) 2-4-025:048 was adequately documented during the Nelson et al. (2006) study and no further work was recommended for Site 25547 (Nelson et al. 2006:18), these findings support a project effect determination of no historic properties directly affected the proposed affordable housing. All of the sites listed on the HRHP and the NRHP within 0.5-mile radius of the project area/ APE are surrounded by the modern built environment that including private residential neighborhoods, rental housing, businesses, paved roads, sidewalks and utility poles and lines. The proposed affordable housing buildings will not be larger in area or height than nearby existing buildings. Given that the project area is surrounded by existing rental housing, modern residential neighborhoods, the police station, businesses, paved roads, sidewalks, and overhead utility lines (See Figure 16), these findings support a project determination of no added visual effect on the existing historic properties located within one-half mile of the project area. These findings support a project effect determination of “No historic properties affected” pursuant to HAR §13-284-7(a)(1) and no historic properties affected pursuant to 36 CFR 800.4(d)(1). 32 Figure 17: Photograph of Northwest Corner of Project Area Looking Southeast. 33 Figure 18: Photograph of Near Center of Project Area Looking Northeast. 34 Figure 19: Photograph of Near South End of Project Area Looking Northeast. 35 Figure 20: Photograph of Modern Culvert at Center of Project Area Looking Southwest. 36 REFERENCES CITED Athens, J., T.

(SCS) conducted a Cultural Impact Assessment (CIA) for the lands of TMK: (3) 2-4-025: 048, 053 and 080 located in Kūkūau 1st Ahupua„a, South Hilo District, Hawai„i Island (Figure 1 through Figure 4). The 5.049-acre project area is located approximately one kilometer southwest the coast of Hilo Bay Front and is bordered Kūkūau Street to the west and by Kapi„olani Street to the north. The south and east property boundaries are bordered by undeveloped residential lots. The project area is currently undeveloped. The project area property is owned by Giampaolo Boschetti. Urban Housing Communities, LLC is applying for grubbing and grading permits for the proposed construction of residential homes on TMK: (3) 2-4-025: 048, 053 and 080. Urban Housing Communities, LLC is managing the proposed construction of residential homes on the project area. The point of contact is Mr. James Rock at Urban Housing Communities, LLC. Mr. Rock‟s mailing address is 2000 E. Fourth Street, Suite 205 Santa Ana, CA 92705. Mr. Rock can be contacted by email at jrock@uhcllc.net or by telephone 714-835-3955 x108. The Constitution of the State of Hawai„i clearly states the duty of the State and its agencies is to preserve, protect, and prevent interference with the traditional and customary rights of native Hawaiians. Article XII, Section 7 requires the State to “protect all rights, customarily and traditionally exercised for subsistence, cultural and religious purposes and possessed by ahupua‘a tenants who are descendants of native Hawaiians who inhabited the Hawaiian Islands prior to 1778” (2000). In spite of the establishment of the foreign concept of private ownership and western-style government, Kamehameha III (Kauikeaouli) preserved the people's traditional right to subsistence. As a result, in 1850 the Hawaiian Government confirmed the traditional access rights to native Hawaiian ahupua‘a tenants to gather specific natural resources for customary uses from undeveloped private property and waterways under the Hawai„i Revised Statutes (HRS) 7-1. In 1992, the State of Hawai„i Supreme Court, reaffirmed HRS 7-1 and expanded it to include, “native Hawaiian rights…may extend beyond the ahupua‘a in which a native Hawaiian resides where such rights have been customarily and traditionally exercised in this manner” (Pele Defense Fund v. Paty, 73 Haw.578, 1992). 1 Figure 1: 5,500 K-Series Map of Hawai‘i Showing Location of Project Area (National Geographic Topo!, 2003.

(Google Earth, 2013 Image. Data Sources: Digital Globe, GeoEye, Earthstar, USDA, and USGS). 2 Act 50, enacted by the Legislature of the State of Hawaii (2000) with House Bill 2895, relating to Environmental Impact Statements, proposes that: …there is a need to clarify that the preparation of environmental assessments or environmental impact statements should identify and address effects on Hawai„i‟s culture, and traditional and customary rights… [H.B. NO. 2895]. Act 50 requires state agencies and other developers to assess the effects of proposed land use or shoreline developments on the “cultural practices of the community and State” as part of the HRS Chapter 343 environmental review process (2001). Its purpose has broadened, “to promote and protect cultural beliefs, practices and resources of native Hawaiians [and] other ethnic groups, and it also amends the definition of „significant effect‟ to be re-defined as “the sum of effects on the quality of the environment including actions that are…contrary to the State‟s environmental policies…or adversely affect the economic welfare, social welfare, or cultural practices of the community and State” (H.B. 2895, Act 50, 2000). Thus, Act 50 requires an assessment of cultural practices to be included in the Environmental Assessments and the Environmental Impact Statements, and to be taken into consideration during the planning process. The concept of geographical expansion is recognized by using, as an example, “the broad geographical area, e.g. district or ahupua‘a” (OEQC 1997). It was decided that the process should identify „anthropological‟ cultural practices, rather than „social‟ cultural practices. For example, limu (edible seaweed) gathering would be considered an anthropological cultural practice, while a modern-day marathon would be considered a social cultural practice. According to the Guidelines for Assessing Cultural Impacts established by the Hawaii State Office of Environmental Quality Control: 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 manmade and natural, which support such cultural beliefs (OEQC 1997). 3 This Cultural Impact Assessment involves evaluating the probability of impacts on identified cultural resources, including values, rights, beliefs, objects, records, properties, and stories occurring within the project area and its vicinity (H.B. 2895, Act 50, 2000). METHODOLOGY This Cultural Impact Assessment was prepared in accordance with the methodology and content protocol provided in the Guidelines for Assessing Cultural Impacts (OEQC 1997). In outlining the “Cultural Impact Assessment Methodology”, the OEQC states: …information may be obtained through scoping, community meetings, ethnographic interviews and oral histories… (1997). The report contains archival and documentary research, as well as communication with organizations having knowledge of the project area, its cultural resources, and its practices and beliefs. This Cultural Impact Assessment was prepared in accordance with the methodology and content protocol provided in the Guidelines for Assessing Cultural Impacts (OEQC 1997). The assessment concerning cultural impacts should address, but not 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 of limitations with 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, as well as the particular perspective of the authors, if appropriate, any opposing views, 4 and any other relevant constraints, limitations or biases; (6) a discussion concerning the cultural resources, practices and beliefs identified, and for the resources and practices, their location within the broad geographical area in which the proposed action is located, 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, and; (11) the inclusion of bibliography of references, and attached records of interviews, which were allowed to be disclosed. Based on the inclusion of the above information, assessments of the potential effects on cultural resources in the project area and recommendations for mitigation of these effects can be proposed. ARCHIVAL RESEARCH Archival research focused on a historical documentary study involving both published and unpublished sources. These included legendary accounts of native and early foreign writers; early historical journals and narratives; historic maps and land records such as Land Commission Awards, Royal Patent Grants, and Boundary Commission records; historic accounts, and previous archaeological project reports. INTERVIEW METHODOLOGY Interviews are conducted in accordance with applicable state laws and guidelines. Individuals and/or groups who have knowledge of traditional practices and beliefs associated with a project area or who know of historical properties within a project area are sought for consultation. Individuals who have particular knowledge of traditions passed down from preceding generations and a personal familiarity with the 5 project area are invited to share their relevant information. Often people are recommended for their expertise, and indeed, organizations, such as Hawaiian Civic Clubs, the Island Branch of Office of Hawaiian Affairs, historical societies, Island Trail clubs, and Planning Commissions are depended upon for their recommendations of suitable informants. These groups are invited to contribute their input, and suggest further avenues of inquiry, as well as specific individuals to interview. If knowledgeable individuals are identified, personal interviews are sometimes taped and then transcribed. These draft transcripts are returned to each of the participants for their review and comments. After corrections are made, each individual signs a release form, making the information available for this study. When telephone interviews occur, a summary of the information is often sent for correction and approval, or dictated by the informant and then incorporated into the document. Key topics discussed with the interviewees vary from project to project, but usually include: personal association to the ahupua‘a, land use in the project‟s vicinity; knowledge of traditional trails, gathering areas, water sources, religious sites; place names and their meanings; stories that were handed down concerning special places or events in the vicinity of the project area; evidence of previous activities identified while in the project vicinity. In this case, letters with maps and descriptions the project area were sent to individuals and organizations whose jurisdiction includes knowledge of the area with an invitation for consultation. Consultation was sought from Kamaile Puluole-Mitchell, Office of Hawaiian Affairs (OHA) East Hawai„i Island Representative; Jordan Kea Calpito, SHPD Burial Sites Specialist; Sean Naleimaile, State Historic Preservation Division (SHPD) Hawai„i Island Archaeologist; and Kalena Blakemore, Hawai„i Island Burial Council (HIBC) Member. If cultural resources are identified based on the information received from these organizations and/or additional informants, an assessment of the potential effects on the identified cultural resources in the project area and recommendations for mitigation of these effects can be proposed. Public notices (Appendix A) were placed in the September 2019 issue of the Office of Hawaiian Affairs (OHA) Ka Wai Ola Newspaper. Public notices were also published in the Honolulu Star- Advertiser, and the Hawai„i Tribune Herald on August 14th, 15th, and 18th. 6 PROJECT AREA NATURAL ENVIRONMENT The project area is situated on level to moderately sloping land at 95 feet (29 meters) above mean sea level (amsl). The project area substrate is a Mauna Loa lava flow dated between 750 and 1,500 years ago (Wolfe and Morris 1996). Soil in the project area is Keaukaha Series (rKFD) extremely rocky muck overlaying pāhoehoe lava (Sato 1973:27). The soil is thin and well drained with 6% to 20% slopes. Annual rainfall ranges from 120 to 160 inches and drains toward the east. There is a narrow drainage area that bisects the middle of the property. Plant communities in the project are dominated by trees, grasses, ferns, and bushes. Tree species include gunpowder (Trema orientalis), autograph (Clusia rosea), banyan (Ficus sp.), guava (Psidium sp.), and bingabing (Macaranga mappa). HISTORICAL AND CULTURAL CONTEXTS Many archaeologists believe that Hawai„i Island was first settled around A.D. 1,000 by people sailing from the Marquesas (Athens et al. 2014; Dye 2011; Kahn et al. 2014; Kirch 2011; Kirch and McCoy 2007; Mulrooney et al. 2011; Reith et al. 2011; Wilmhurst et al. 2011a and 2011b). An article published in the Journal of Archaeological Science reviewing radiocarbon dates recovered at archaeological sites on the Island of Hawai„i suggests that, by relying on only carbon samples from short-lived plant remains, the most reliable dates point to initial Polynesian colonization of Hawai„i Island occurring between A.D. 1220 and 1261 (Rieth et al. 2011:2747). Hilo was, by most estimates, one of the first settlements on the Island of Hawai„i. Early settlers established settlements on the windward shores in likely places such as Waipi„o, Waimanu, and Hilo Bay. People at these locations were able to sustain themselves through inshore and pelagic fishing, gathering shellfish from the shore and strand, plant and animal husbandry, and the utilization of natural terrestrial flora and fauna (Kirch and Kelly 1975; Pearson et al. 1971; Kirch 1985). The rich marine resources of Hilo Bay and the gently sloping forests of Mauna Loa and Mauna Kea provided abundant resources. Fresh water was available from the Wailoa and Wailuku rivers and smaller streams such as Waiākea, Waiolama, Pukihae, and „Alenaio. Settlement is thought to have consisted of widely spaced, permanent homes that gradually expanded to form a nearly continuous zone of settlement. 7 PRE-CONTACT ACCOUNTS OF HILO Hilo is likely one of the first two main settlement areas on the island (Kirch 1985), due to its calm and sizable bay, permanent supply of fresh water and fertile and arable soils near the bay. Indeed, one of the early Polynesian travelers to Hawai„i was named Hiro, or Hilo (Beckwith 1970; Henry 1995), and the attachment of his namesakes to this place supplies some circumstantial evidence to the early occupation here. The coming of Pa„ao to Hawai„i is commemorated in a legend associated with Hilo. Pa„ao is said to have made his first home in Hawai„i on a rock at the mouth of the Wailuku River (Reed 1987; Westervelt 1977). The subsequent history retained through oral history over the centuries is anchored on the events, often romantic and violent, of the struggle for power. Pa„ao affected the overthrown of the ancient lineages of power and supplanted them with the new Pili line by intrigues and warfare in Hilo (Westervelt 1977). There is another story associated with Hilo that relates directly to the struggle between the old lineages of authority (Nanaula) versus the new ones represented by Pa„ao and Pili. Kaupe„epe„e, from the older Nanaula line, resisted the authority of the newcomers (Kalākaua 1990:84). He traveled to Hilo and captured a chiefess from her home in Hilo Bay, and returned to Moloka„i. A series of phenomenal battles transpired at his Moloka„i fortress, leading eventually to the return of the chiefess to her home (Beckwith 1970:464-466; Fornander 1996: 32; Pukui et al. 1974:42). This set of legendary events emphasizes the place of power that Hilo had during this pivotal time in Hawaiian history. The chronology of developments in Hilo is portrayed in the oral traditions that were written down in the 19th century regarding struggles for power. Chiefs from Hilo and Puna banded together to raid O„ahu. They were slaughtered in Kipapa Gulch in „Ewa, where "the head of Hilo was cut off and carried in triumph to Honouliuli, and stuck up at a place still called Poo-Hilo” (Fornander 1996:90). That did not deter Kulukulua, a subsequent Hilo chief, from successfully attacking O„ahu forces to retrieve a loved one (Elbert 1959:288-290). Not long after that, „Umi spent time in Hilo soon after becoming ruler of the island, and before he was widely recognized as such. A lack of understanding with the Hilo chief Kulukulua was the purported reason for his attacking Hilo, but his subsequent actions, that of traveling around the island with his forces, indicates that „Umi 8 merely started his campaign of asserting his military authority over the entire island at the important seat of power of Hilo (Kamakau 1961:17). The chiefs of Hilo fought those from Kona for “several centuries” (Kamakau 1961:62). “It is said that the cause which started the war between the chiefs of Hilo and Kona was the cruel treatment of Kua„ana, chief of Hilo, by the chiefs of Kona. He was the son of „I…” (Kamakau 1961:62). Sometimes the victory went to the chiefs of Kona, but more often to the chiefs of Hilo. Locations of these battles are not disclosed in the written histories. Hilo played a prominent role in the long campaign of conquest of the islands by Kamehameha. The first major battle campaign after the ascendance of Kamehameha at Moku„ōhai took place at Hilo, and is referred to as the Battle of the Bitter Rains. Kamehameha went by land from Kona to Hilo, and descended upon Keawema„uhili at Pū„āinakō for three days of battle. Forces from Maui in support of Keawema„uhili joined in the battle, and armies fought over the uplands and shoreline of Hilo for three more days. “Kamehameha‟s forces were badly used in these battles. Ka- lani-malokulolu-i-ke-po„o-ka-lani was almost killed at Hala„i. The army was saved only by getting to the sea and going aboard Ke„e-au-moku‟s fleet” (Kamakau 1961:125). Years later, Keawema„uhili became an ally of Kamehameha. While Kamehameha was battling for control over Maui, Kamehameha's Hawai„i island nemesis, Keōuakū„ahu„ula, made a decisive move on Hilo. When Keouakuahuula heard of the assistance in men and canoes which Keawemauhili of Hilo had furnished to Kamehameha on his expedition to Maui, he was greatly irritated, and considered it as a breach of the agreement between them to jointly oppose Kamehameha’s pretensions to sovereignty. To punish, therefore, his former ally, Keoua invaded Hilo. A battle was fought at Alae in Hilo-paliku, in which Keawemauhili was killed, and Keoua added the district of Hilo to his own possessions of Puna and Kau [Fornander 1996:240]. After another series of later battles in Hamakua between Kamehameha and Keōua, "Keoua retired to Hilo; Kamehameha went back to Waipi„o and Kohala” (Kamakau 1961:151-152). Keōua “stayed at Pi„opi„o for two days and on the third day 9 he returned to Puna. From Puna he announced that he was the mō‘i of all of Hawai„i Kuauli…” (Desha 2000:271). It was immediately following this episode that a significant portion of Keōua‟s forces were destroyed by rock and ash spewing from the volcano Kilauea during their trek to Ka„ū. Kamehameha selected Hilo as his base of operations in preparation for launching an attack on O„ahu and the western islands. Upon one trip to Hilo "(i)t is thought that there were as many as seven mano [twenty eight thousand] people who gathered at the shore at Kaipalaoa when the ali‘i landed in their regal garments" (Desha 2000:369). Kamehameha developed a rapport with Vancouver. During one of Vancouver's visits to Hilo "he sent Lieutenant Puget ashore with a red British flag on a wooden staff to wave in the breezes of Hilo. By that flag, the island of Hawai„i was to escape being troubled by other governmental powers" (Desha 2000:379). Even after Kamehameha was successful in subduing O„ahu at the battle of Nu„uanu, events in Hilo required his attention. A tabu chief from Maui named Namakeha„ fomented rebellion in the eastern half of the island of Hawai„i while Kamehameha was in O„ahu. Kamehameha returned to Hawaii to make war on Na-makeha„ and his followers. The battle took place at Hilo. Na-makeha„ was defeated, fled, and hid in the bush until he was captured. He was made a mock of by his enemies, and in January, 1797, with the consent of Kamehameha, he was offered in sacrifice to the gods in the heiau of Kaipalaoa in Pi„ihonua, Hilo…This was the last of the battles fought by Kamehameha to unite the islands [Kamakau 1961:174]. The last battle that Kamehameha ever fought was in Hilo. Hilo continued to be place of power after the death of Kamehameha and after the breaking of the kapu. Kalākaua had a residence in Hilo, as did Governess Ruth Ke„eilikolani (Zambucka 1992). Kamehameha III visited in 1829 and 1830 (Kelly et al. 1981). Governor Kuakini had a mill in Ponahawai. Several of the ahupua‘a fronting Hilo Bay were personal lands of Kamehameha I (Kelly et al. 1981:40). Waiākea, which had been retained as a personal land by Kamehameha I … was at some later time held by the chiefess Ka-unu-o-hua, a granddaughter of Keawe-mau-hili … She surrendered it in the Māhele of 1848 and it became a Crown Land (Indices … 1929:26) (Kelly et al. 1981:40). 10 The Maka‘āinana Rulers and would-be rulers would come and go, but the maka‘āinana, the common folk, lived on and farmed the land and fished for generations in the Hilo area. The settlement in Hilo Bay was concentrated in the eastern portion of the shoreline, with perhaps 2,000 people living in 400 houses there in 1823 (Ellis 1917:253, cited in Kelly et al. 1981:19). Other habitations were distributed throughout the coastline well beyond the east and west limits of the bay. The map from Byron depicts the position of the shoreline further to the west than it is today (Figure 5). The larger heiau were concentrated on the western portion of Hilo Bay (Stokes 1991). This may suggest a segregation between ceremonial and mundane precincts in the Hilo region, with the former being concentrated at the mouth of the Wailuku and the latter at the mouth of the Wailoa River. Heiau were also located along the Waiākea coast. These were smaller, or perhaps not as ceremonially prominent, and consequently went unreported to Stokes. One is on the east coast of Reed‟s Bay (Kam 1983), and this is the only heiau in the Hilo vicinity that still has observable architecture. Another heiau once existed at Leleiwi point to the east of the project area. This heiau was a "fish heiau (heiau ho‘oulu i‘a), named Pū-hala (pandanas tree)" (Pukui et al. 1974:131). There is a local variant of the popular legend regarding the growth of a plant from a person after their burial, particularly as it relates to sustaining a starving population (Beckwith 1970:98). A man named „Ulu lived in Waiākea. He died of famine. Priests directed that his body be buried near a running stream, and an ‘ulu tree sprouted at that location the next day. The fruits of that tree saved the people from further starvation. Fishponds for the Ali‘i and the Maka‘āinana Kikuchi (1973) recognized the variations and complexities of fishpond design, and devised a classificatory system that recognizes 7 variants of loko kuapā, 3 variants of loko pu‘uone, 4 variants of loko wai, 1 loko i‘a kalo, 12 variants of loko ‘ume‘iki, 2 variants of kaheka, and 2 variants of kahē paniwai (Kikuchi 1973:227-232). Royal fishponds are situated northeast of the project area (see Figure 5). 11 Figure 5: Portion of 1825 Map of Hilo Bay and Project Area Location (Malden 1825). 12 Loko kuapā were controlled by the ali‘i, and built by the local inhabitants (Summers 1964). Mullet (‘ama‘ama) and milkfish (awa) were the most common fish kept in this type of pond, in part, because their food (microbenthos) grew best in brackish water. Other fish raised and kept in ponds are awa‘aua, kaku, aholehole, ‘o‘opu, ‘opae and puhi (Summers 1964; Titcomb 1952). Pond caretakers could eat these as they wished, but “those kinds reserved for the chiefs they would eat secretly” (Kamakau, cited in Summers 1964:11). Ponds were built at least as early as the 1400s (Summers 1964:12), and probably many were built earlier than that. One fishpond on the West Loch of Pearl Harbor has been securely dated with radiocarbon assay to circa 1000 AD (Wolforth et al. 1997). Royal fishponds were located in the western boundary of Waiākea (Kamakau 1961:152) with fish from these ponds being reserved for the ali‘i. These ponds were said to be favorites of Hi„iaka and Pele. This was invoked as one possible explanation for the volcanic eruption that decimated Keōua's marching army across Kilauea. Keōua had apparently not treated the Waiolama ponds with their due respect as he was passing through after a battle against chief Kamehameha (Desha 2000). In 1823 Ellis observed small huts alongside the Waiākea ponds for the pond caretakers. In addition, it "was custom to build small watch houses from which to guard the fish from being stolen at high tide, of from being killed by pigs and dogs; when the tides receded the fish would return to the middle of the pond out of reach of thieves" (Kamakau 1976:48). In addition to the royal ponds, there were pu‘uone ponds that belonged to the commoners, and other non-royal inhabitants (Kamakau 1976:49). The pu‘uone ponds near the sea (loko kai pu‘uone) were much desired by farmers, and these ponds they stocked (ho‘oholo) with fish. Pu‘uone ponds were close to shore ponds, loko kuapo, or to the seashore, and next to the mouths (nuku) of streams. The farmer cleared away the mokae sedges, ‘aka‘akai bulrushes, and the weeds, and deepened the pond, piling up the muck on the sides, until he had a clean pond. Then he stocked it with awa and fish fry, pua i‘a - two or three gourds full - until the pond was full of fish [Kamakau 1976:49]. 13 There were at least two shore ponds within the bay area at Hilo, but no early information on them has been found. These ponds, Waihonu and Kanakea, were natural indentations of the shoreline and required little in the way of rock walls that characterize the typical shore ponds (Kamakau 1976:47-48: Summers 1964:2-12). Ponds such as these were called loko i‘a, and were used for storing excess fish rather than for fish culture (Summers 1964:I) [Kelly et al. 1981:15]. Kamakau refers to the shore ponds as loko kuapa. He uses loko i‘a as the generic term for all types of fishponds (Kamakau 1976:47-49). There are approximately 10 other fishponds to the east of Hilo along the Keaukaha shoreline (Kikuchi 1973: 34). One, the large pond named Lokowaka, is associated with the mo‘o Waka (Kikuchi 1973:262). "Waka, a mo‘o, dived into the pool to escape Pele who was jealous of Waka's interest in a man" (Pukui et al. 1974:134). The project area is southwest of the royal fishpond called Pi„opi„o, “a place of residence of chiefs from ancient times” (Desha 2000:76) (see Figure 5). There is one historical development that involves three generations of island mō‘ī at Pi„opi„o. While the young Kamehameha was staying there in 1752 with the current mō‘ī Alapa„inui, Kalaniopu„u attempted, and failed, to abduct Kamehameha. This precipitated an attack on the warriors of Kalaniopu„u at Kalepolepo “by Alapai‟s men, who had followed Kalaniopu„u from Hilo. First the warriors from the lowland gained, then those from the upland, until night fell and the battle was postponed until the next day” (I„i 1959:3). Later when Kalaniopu„u became the island ruler, he had a house in Pi„opi„o, and that is where he died (Fornander 1996:142, 201). Pi„opi„o was under ali‘i control for centuries prior to modern land ownership codes and regulations were implemented in Hawai„i during the Māhele in the middle 1800s. The land between the royal fishponds and the ocean (the project area) was given to Victoria Kamamalu during the Māhele. Victoria Kamamalu, then, was granddaughter of Kamehameha I. Her brothers by same parents (Kina„u and Kekuanao„a) were Alexander Liholiho (who became Kamehameha IV), and Lot (who became Kamehameha V). 14 EARLY HISTORIC ACCOUNTS OF HILO Early accounts of settlements along the windward shores describe the area as divided into several distinct environmental regions (Ellis 1963: 291-292). At Hilo Bay, from the coast to a distance of five or six miles inland, scattered subsistence agriculture was evident, followed by a region of tall fern and bracken, flanked at higher elevations by a forest region between 10 and 20 miles wide, beyond which was an expanse of grass and lava (Ellis 1963:403). A map of Hilo Bay drawn by Malden in 1825 shows an area of agricultural fields inland of the bay (see Figure 4). The American Missionary C.S. Stewart wrote in 1825, “the first four miles of the country is open and uneven, and beautifully sprinkled with clumps, groves, and single trees of the bread-fruit, pandanus, and candle tree” (Stewart 1970:361-363). The majority of inhabitants in 1825 lived within this coastal region. Taro, plantains, bananas, coconuts, sweet potatoes, and breadfruit were grown individually or in small garden plots. Fish, pig, dog, and birds were also raised and captured for consumption. Wood, such as „ōhi‘a and koa for house construction, canoe building, and fires was obtained from the upland agricultural zone (McEldowney 1979:18-19), and from the dense forests above (Ellis 1963:236). Hilo quickly became a port of call for both whalers and merchant ships. It also became a point of entry for missionaries and travelers. Wooden homes and businesses began to pop up in the area along Hilo Bay amidst the traditional homes and agricultural fields. For their part in aiding King Kamehameha, he gave John Young the ahupua‘a of Kūkūau 1 and he gave the ahupua‘a of Kūkūau 2 to Isaac Davis (Kelly et al. 1981:11). THE MĀHELE OF 1848 AND LAND COMMISSION AWARDS With the Māhele of 1848 and the two Acts of 1850, authorizing the sale of land in fee simple to resident aliens and the award of kuleana lands to native tenants, land tenure in Hawai„i arrived at a significant turning point (Chinen 1961:13). Prior to the Māhele, Kūkūau 1st Ahupua„a belonged to King Kamehameha and were Crown Lands during the Māhele of 1848. John Young‟s son Keoni Ana was awarded 9,360 acres of land within Kūkūau 1st as Land Commission award (LCA) 8515. Nine smaller LCAs were awarded within Kūkūau 1st Ahupua„a (Table 1 and Figure 6). 15 Table 1: Land Commission Awards in Waiākea Ahupua„a. Award To LCA Description Papa 00513 2 houses Puniono 02606 0.93 acres, 2 house lots & 1 cultivated plot Kahue 02663 3.75 acres Kahue 02664 0.34 acres Aiko 03205 2 lots: 0.55 acres and 0.46 acres Haoleopunui 03206 2.48 acres Hoomoo 03993 2.06 acres, 1 house Ana 08815 9,360 acres Kanakaole 11045B 3 houses Ouluihi, wahine 11144 1 „apana The Land Commission awards were small in area, between 0.34 and 3.75 acres, and the majority of awards were made to native claimants. Most of the awards are makai (east) of the current project area. The project area parcel is not associated with any LCA. The LCAs closest LCAs were awarded in Kūkūau 1st Ahupua„a and Waiākea Ahupua„a, just south of the current project area (see Figure 6). From testimony given by LCA claimants, it is clear that the awards included house lots and agricultural lots under cultivation. The only references to cultigens given in the testimonies are hala (Pandanus tectorius) and kalo (Colocasia esculenta). There are also references to uncultivated “wastelands” of pāhoehoe lava in the region of the project area lands. CHANGING RESIDENTIAL AND LAND-USE PATTERNS (1845-1865) Between 1845 and 1865 traditional land-use and residential patterns underwent a dramatic change. In particular, the regular use of Hilo Bay by foreign vessels, the whaling industry, the establishment of missions in the Hilo area, the introduction of the sandalwood trade, the legalization of private land ownership, the introduction of cattle ranching, and the introduction of sugar cane cultivation all brought about changes in settlement patterns and long-established land-use patterns (Kelly et al. 1981). Hilo became the center of population and settlements in outlying regions declined or disappeared. The area of Hilo continued to develop as a commercial port throughout the twentieth century. Hilo Bay Front area became a store front venue, while the outlying regions were developed as industrial parks, shopping malls, and residential neighborhoods. 16 Figure 6: Portion of 1891 Hilo Property Title Map Showing Project Area Location and Eastern Kūkūau 1st Ahupua„a Land Commission Awards (Baldwin 1891). 17 The historical events at Hilo have received significant attention and presentation elsewhere (Desha 2000; Kelly et al. 1981; George 1948; Leithead 1974). Those events and trends that do or may relate generally to the project area are synthesized below. Sandalwood was being shipped out of Hilo Bay in the first 20 years of the 19th century (Kelly et al. 1981:25). In April of 1822, the first missionary, Auna, a Tahitian, preached in Hilo. Many other missionaries soon followed. Whaling ships are documented as docking at Hilo by at least 1824. Whaling declined precipitously in the mid 1800s due to depredations by the U.S. Confederate fleet, increased use worldwide of kerosene, and increased cost of outfitting, among other things (George 1948:32). Whaling hobbled on in the islands, and the wreck of the Tamerlane in 1892 marks the end of commercial whaling in the area (Rogers 1999). Due to economic, cultural and natural forces, the focus of habitation had fully shifted from the Wailoa River side of Hilo Bay to the Wailuku River side of the bay by 1885. “Hilo in 1885 was a small settlement with only a few hundred inhabitants. Waiākea had no frame buildings, just a few grass homes (after the tidal wave of 1877)” (Leithead 1974:59). The industrial and commercial concerns began to expand in the Wailoa River vicinity. Markets, landings, agriculture, and milling soon flourished in the Waiākea side of the bay (Kelly et al. 1981; Leithead 1974). Habitation then increased in the Waiākea area on the heels of the industrial developments in the late 1800s and early 1900s. By 1901 sugar dominated the island‟s industry, and Hilo was the epicenter of production and export. Railroads connected sugar factors along the Hāmākua and Puna coasts to the mills and wharves at Hilo. An important spur of the railroad line connected the switch yard to the wharf. The first pier at Kuhio Wharf was built between 1912 and 1916 (Kelly et al. 1981:194). A second was added in 1923. The railroad began operation in the Hilo area in 1899, and was abandoned in 1946 (Kelly et al. 1981). The first railroad to wharf connection was at the mouth of the Wailoa River. Railroad and sugar expansion coincided with one another, although not always productively (Kelly et al. 1981:154). The tsunami of 1946 struck Hilo Bay just as one train was passing through the project area. 18 The Alenaio canal was created to facilitate the filling of the lowlands near the ocean that had once been fishponds and taro fields just to the west and beyond the project area. It was upgraded with stone walls in 1917 (Kelly et al. 1981:220). Black sand from the beach was pumped up into the Waiolama swamps to fill them (Kelly et al. 1981:223). Removing beach sand to Waiolama swamp partially undermined the railroad. When the sand dredging started for the nearby Ponahawai taro and pond filling, the railroad company complained, and the dredging stopped (Kelly et al. 1981:224). Dredging started up again in 1922, and 31,763 cubic yards of black sand was then taken from the shoreline and placed in the Ponahawai drainage (Kelly et al. 1981:225). “Altogether, between the years 1917 to 1923, a total or roughly 250,000 cubic yards of fine black-lava sand from the beach at Hilo Bay was pumped…” into the interior wetlands (Kelly et al. 1981:225). With the growth in industry and population in the latter half of the 1800s, the Minister of the Interior of the Provisional Government focused attention on the Waiākea side of the bay for the development of a new wharf (Kelly et al. 1981:104). While the Isbell Point wharf continued to be used in the 1890s, the government began building a “boat landing” just south of Kalauiiokukui in 1897 (Kelly et al. 1981:105). “Difficulties in obtaining a lease for this location, delayed the start of construction until October 1897, when a lease agreement was reached” (Kelly et al. 1981:105). But this boat landing turned out to be inadequate, and was then leased to Hackfeld & Co. for use as warehouse and landing (Kelly et al. 1981:107). The “boat landing” is identified as being immediately adjacent and to the south of Kalauiiokukui point on a U.S. Engineer Office map dated July 16, 1920 (in Kelly et al. 1981:201, Figure 84). The government initiated construction in 1897 of a larger wharf just north of Reed‟s Landing known as the Government Ship Wharf (Kelly et al. 1981:107). Soon thereafter plans were made to increase the size of the wharf (Kelly et al. 1981:178), but efforts quickly changed to construction of the “railroad wharf” just to the south (over old Reed‟s Landing). The railroad wharf was completed in 1893, and after that this “new railroad wharf accommodated all vessels coming into Hilo Harbor” (Kelly et al. 1981:178). During this period larger steam vessels with deeper drafts were rapidly replacing sailing ships. Many large steam ships could not be accommodated by the railroad wharf. 19 By 1909 the only workable wharves were the railroad wharf and the territorial wharf [the Government Wharf], which was in “a condition of decay and beyond repair” (Kelly et al. 1981:184). And by this time the breakwater at Hilo Bay was under construction. The old government wharf was finally removed in February, 1912 (Kelly et al. 1981:185). Simultaneously, a considerable effort was expended to building a new wharf that would eventually become known as Kuhio Wharf. By 1916 Kuhio Wharf was busy to capacity. Buildings Hilo Iron Works building and railroad spur was built and began operations in 1913 (Warshauer 2003:28). Two acres of “swamp land” was sucked up from the Wailoa River into molds to pour concrete as foundations for expanding the Iron Works in 1919. The building that still stands today (just beyond the project area) was built in 1935. The foundry at the Iron Works closed in 1958. Other fabrication continued there until finally closing completely in 1983. FISHING PRACTICES Ellis‟ descriptions of the people he met and the villages he travelled through along the Puna coast in 1823 illustrate the long and well developed Hawaiian traditions of fishing and collecting food from the ocean. This orientation to the coast and the traditional practices developed in Hawai„i are still passed down generation to generation and persist today (Maly and Maly 2004). Many fishermen, whether they use a hand-line or rod and reel, use knowledge and techniques of past fishermen to select fishing locations, proper bait, and technique. Fishermen throw net, fish by rod and reel, or spear fish at different locations along the shoreline to catch specific fish such as āholehole, ‘āweoweo, kala, kole, kūmū, manini, mamo, moana, moi, mū, palani, ta‘ape, uhu, ‘ū‘ū, uouoa, weke‘ā, and weke‘ula. Many people still fish with rod and along the shore at Hilo Bay, or fish by boat offshore for akule, kawele‘ā, mahimahi, ono, ‘ōpakapaka, ‘ula‘ula, and other species. In addition, the traditional collection of ‘ōpihi, ‘a‘ama, and limu along the rocky shoreline is still practiced. Traditional Hawaiian fishing practices, shoreline gathering practices, and ocean access are protected by state law. 20 Traditional Cultural Practices at Hilo Bay Fishing, canoeing surfing are recognized past and ongoing cultural activities practiced along the coast at Hilo Bay. These coastal cultural practices are still conducted today at various spots along Hilo Bay Front and are protected by law. Considering all of the historical documentation, previous archaeology, past discussions with the public, and previous interviews conducted regarding Hilo Bay, fishing and canoeing can be considered as cultural practices conducted roughly one kilometer northeast of the current project area. Fishermen and Canoers have used this area into pre-Contact times. Other old style recreational activities conducted here include surfing, and the games of kilu, pahenehene, and others associated with lōkū. Those activities are documented to have been conducted here for a long time prior to European contact. Although the latter traditional games are no longer practiced, and have not been practiced here for some time, fishing and canoeing are still conducted. TRADITIONAL CULTURAL PRACTICES AT HĀLA‘I, PU‘UHONU, ‘ŌPE‘APE‘A, AND KAMALI‘I There is a collection of traditional Hawaiian legends that are set on the three hills in Ponahawai and Punahoa Ahupua„a (Figure 7). Hāla„i hill is the largest, is furthest makai, and is approximately 0.75 kilometers southwest of the current project area. The middle hill and the mauka hill have been referred to in legend as Pu„uhonu, „Ōpe„ape„a, and Pu„u o Kamali„i. The confusion in the names of the latter two hills continued into the early post-Contact era when cartographers gave these two cinder cones different names on their maps. Furthermore, the middle hill was excavated from the mid 1940s through the 1960s for cinder to supply various construction projects. Modern maps depict the large hill to the northeast as Hāla„i, the small hill to the southwest as Pu„uhonu, and the middle hill is no longer present (see Figure 7). The best treatment of the legends surrounding the three hills can be found in a study of the oral traditions and archival records of Ponahawai and Punahoa Ahupua„a written by Kepa and Onaona Maly (Maly and Maly 2003:14-19). Their work relied heavily on that of W.D. Westervelt (1910, reprinted in 1987) who published a collection of traditional stories about the goddesses called Hina and the demi-god Maui. 21 Figure 7: 7.5-Minute Series USGS Topographic Map Showing Location of Hāla„i and Pu„u Honu (USGS Hilo Quad, 2013. Source: National Geographic Society). 22 Regarding the traditions of Hina and the Hāla„i Hills, Westervelt (reprinted in 1987) wrote: Ghosts of the Hilo Hills The Legends about Hina and her famous son Maui, and her less widely known daughters, are common property among the natives of the beautiful little city of Hilo. One of these legends of more than ordinary interest finds its location in the three small hills back of Hilo toward the mountains. These hills are small craters connected with some ancient lava flow of unusual violence. The eruption must have started far up on the slopes of Mauna Loa. As it sped down toward the sea, it met some obstruction which, although overwhelmed, checked the flow and caused a great mass of cinders and ashes to be thrown out until a large hill with a hollow crater was built up, covering many acres of ground. Soon the lava found another vent and then another obstruction and a second, and then a third, hill were formed nearer the sea. These hills or extinct craters bear the names Halai, Opeapea, and Puu Honu. They are not far from the Wailuku River, famous for its picturesque waterfalls and also for the legends which are told along its banks. Hina had several daughters, four of whose names are given: Hina Keahi, Hina Kekai, Hina Mahuia, and Hina Kuluua. Each name marked the peculiar mana or divine gift which Hina, the mother, had bestowed upon her daughters. Hina Keahi meant the Hina who had control of fire. This name is sometimes given to Hina the mother. Hina Kekai was the daughter who had power over the sea. She was said to have been in a canoe with her brother Maui when he fished up Coconut Island [Mokuola], his line breaking before he could pull it up to the mainland and make it fast. Hina Kuluua was the mistress over the forces of rain. The winds and the storms were supposed to obey her will. Hina Mahuia is peculiarly a name 23 connected with the legends of the other island groups of the Pacific; Mahuia or Mafuie was a god or goddess of fire all through Polynesia. The legend of the Hilo hills pertains especially to Hina Keahi and Hina Kuluua. Hina the mother gave the hill Halai to Hina Keahi and the hill Puuhonu to Hina Kuluua for their families and dependents. The hills were of rich soil and there was much rain. Therefore, for a long time, the two daughters had plenty of food for themselves and their people. But at last the days were like fire and the sky had no rain to it. The taro planted on the hillsides died. The bananas and sugar cane and sweet potatoes withered and the fruit on the trees was blasted. The people were faint because of hunger, and the shadow of death was over the land. Hina Keahi pitied her suffering friends and determined to provide food for them. Slowly her people labored at her command. Over they went to the banks of the river course, which was only the bed of an ancient lava stream, over which no water was flowing. The famished laborers toiled. gathering and carrying back whatever wood they could find, then went up the mountainside to the great koa and ohia forests, gathering their burdens of fuel according to the wishes of the chiefess. Their sorcerers planted charms along the way and uttered incantations to ward off the danger of failure. The priests offered sacrifices and prayers for the safe and successful return of the burden bearers. After many days, the great quantity of wood desired by the goddess was piled up by the side of the Halai Hill. Then came the days of digging out the hill and making a great imu or cooking oven, and preparing it with stones and wood. Large quantities of wood were thrown into the place. Stones best fitted for retaining heat were gathered and the fires kindled. When the stones were hot, Hina Keahi directed the people to arrange the imu in its proper order for cooking the materials for a great feast. A place was made for sweet potatoes, another for taro, another for pigs, and another for dogs. All the forms of preparing the food for cooking were passed through, but no real food was laid on the stones. 24 Then Hina told them to make a place in the imu for a human sacrifice. Probably, out of every imu of the long ago, a small part of the food was offered to the gods, and there may have been a special place in the imu for that part of the food to be cooked. At any rate, Hina had this oven so built that the people understood that a remarkable sacrifice would be offered in it to the gods, who for some reason had sent the famine upon the people. Therefore it was in quiet despair that the workmen obeyed Hina Keahi and prepared the place for sacrifice. It might mean their own holocaust as an offering to the gods. At last Hina Keahi bade the laborers cease their work and stand by the side of the oven, ready to cover it with the dirt which had been thrown out and piled up by the side. The people stood by, not knowing upon whom the blow might fall. But Hina Keahi was "Hina the Kind," and although she stood before them robed in royal majesty and power. still her face was full of pity and love. Her voice melted the hearts of her retainers as she bade them carefully follow her directions. "O my people! Where are you? Will you obey and do as I command? This imu is my imu. I shall lie down in its bed of burning stones. I shall sleep under its cover. But deeply cover me, or I may perish. Quickly throw the dirt over my body. Fear not the fire. Watch for three days. A woman will stand by the imu. Obey her will." Hina Keahi was very beautiful, and her eyes flashed light like fire as she stepped into the great pit and lay down on the burning stones. A great smoke arose and gathered over the imu. The men toiled rapidly, placing the imu mats over their chiefess and throwing the dirt back into the oven until it was all thoroughly covered and the smoke was quenched. Then they waited for the strange, mysterious thing which must fallow the sacrifice of this divine chiefess. Halai hill trembled and earthquakes shook the land round about. The great heat of the fire in the imu withered the little life that was still left from the 25 famine. Meanwhile, Hina Keahi was carrying out her plan for securing aid for her people. She could not be injured by the heat, for she was a goddess of fire. The waves of heat raged around her as she sank down through the stones of the imu into the underground paths which belonged to the spirit world. The legend says that Hina made her appearance in the form of a gushing stream of water which would always supply the wants of her adherents. The second day passed. Hina was still journeying underground, but this time she came to the surface as a pool named Moe-waa (Canoe Sleep), much nearer the sea. The third day came and Hina caused a great spring of sweet water to burst forth from the seashore in the very path of the ocean surf. This received the name of Auauwai. Here Hina washed away all traces of her journey through the depths. This was the last of the series of earthquakes and the appearance of new water springs. The people waited, feeling that some more wonderful event must follow the remarkable experience of the three days. Soon a woman stood by the imu, who commanded the laborers to dig away the dirt and remove the mats. When this was done, the hungry people found a very great abundance of food, enough to supply their wants until the food plants should have time to ripen and the days of the famine should be over. The joy of the people was great when they knew that their chiefess had escaped death and would still dwell among them in comfort. Many were the songs sung and stories told about the great famine and the success of the goddess of fire. The second sister, Hina Kuluua, the goddess of rain, was always very jealous of her beautiful sister Hina Keahi, and many times sent rain to put out fires which her sister tried to kindle. Hina Keahi could not stand the rain and so fled with her people to a home by the seaside. Hina Kuluua could control rain and storms, but for some reason failed to provide a food supply for her people, and the famine wrought havoc among them. She thought of the stories told and songs sung about her 26 Sister, and wished for the same honor for herself. She commanded her people to make a great imu for her in the hill Puu Honu. She knew that a strange power belonged to her and yet, blinded by jealousy, forgot that rain and fire could not work together. She planned to furnish a great supply of food for her people in the same way in which her sister had worked. The oven was dug. Stones and wood were collected and the same ghostly array of potatoes, taro, pig and dog prepared as had been done before by her sister. The kahunas or priests knew that Hina Kuluua was going out of her province in trying to do as her sister had done, but there was no use in attempting to change her plans. Jealousy is self-willed and obstinate, and no amount of reasoning from her dependents could have any influence over her. The ordinary incantations were observed, and Hina Kuluua gave the same directions as those her sister had given. The imu was to be well heated. The make-believe food was to be put in and a place left for her body. It was the goddess of rain making ready to lie down on a bed prepared for the goddess of fire. When all was ready, she lay down on the heated stones and the oven mats were thrown over her and the ghostly provisions. Then the covering of dirt was thrown back upon the mats and heated stones, filling the pit which had been dug. The goddess of rain was left to prepare a feast for her people as the goddess of fire had done for her followers. Some of the legends have introduced the demi-god Maui into this story. The natives say that Maui came to "burn or cook the rain" and that he made the oven very hot, but that the goddess of rain escaped and hung over the hill in the form of a cloud. At least this is what the people saw - not a cloud of smoke over the imu, but a rain cloud. They waited and watched for such evidences of underground labor as attended the passage of Hina Keahi through the earth from the hill to the sea, but the only strange appearance was the dark rain cloud. They waited three days and looked for their chiefess to come in the form of a woman. They waited another day and still another, and no signs or wonders were manifest. 27 Meanwhile, Maui, changing himself into a white bird, flew up into the sky to catch the ghost of the goddess of rain that had escaped from the burning oven. Having caught this spirit, he rolled it in some kapa cloth that he kept for food to be placed in an oven, and carried it to a place in the forest on the mountainside, where again the attempt was made to "bum the rain"; but a great drop escaped and sped upward into the sky. Again Maui caught the ghost of the goddess and carried it to a pali or precipice below the great volcano Kilauea, where he again tried to destroy it in the heat of a great lava oven. But this time the spirit escaped and found a safe refuge among kukui trees on the mountainside. from which she sometimes rises in clouds that the natives say are the sure sign of rain. The ghosts of Hina Keahi and Hina Kuluua sometimes draw near to the old hills in the form of the fire of flowing lava or clouds of rain, while the old men and women tell the story of the Hinas, the sisters of Maui, who were laid upon the burning stones of the imus of a famine. [Westervelt 1987:25-31] While Theodore Kelsey was working with kūpuna of Hilo (1921), they shared with him descriptions the Ponahawai-Punahoa landscape that were of cultural and historical importance. Among their stories was that of Hina-a-ke-ahi and Hina-kulu-ua, similar to that above. They also told him of an important event that took place on a small hill above Hāla„i in 1881. Though late in the history of these lands, this event was one that stood out in the native mind as being of great importance to the well-being of Hilo. In a series of letters from Kelsey to Thomas Thrum (in the collection of Bernice Pauahi Bishop Museum), Kelsey wrote of the famed hills of Hala„i, Pu„u Honu and Pu'u a Kamali„i, the latter being the hill to which Princess Ruth Ke„elikolani (Governess of Hawai„i) went in August of 1881, when she personally asked Pele to spare Hilo from the Mauna Loa lava flow of 1881. 28 Kelsey's letters on this matter include the following observations: June 16, 1921 ... Ben Brown gave me the meanings of the names of the hills back of Hilo. Hala„i hill was named because of the easy life led by the subjects of Hina a ke Ahi, after she had relieved their famine by placing her body in the imu to create food for them. She went under ground appearing at two or three springs called Hina Auau Wai, and finally came walking up from the sea. Puu Honu is named after the rain sister, Hina a ka Ua, who was baked in her unsuccessful attempt to imitate Hina a ke Ahi. Hina a ka Ua only crawled about like a tortoise, never getting anywhere-nee wale iho no i kauhale [moving about only in her dwelling]. Puu o Kamalii was the peoples‟ playground. There was a holua slide from there down to the Nawahi place. Since Princess Ruth went up there in 1881 and prayed for the lava flow to stop, the hill has often been called Puu Alii [Royal Hill] ... [BPBM Vol. 1:930]. Based on Kelsey and his informants references to known locations— Hāla„i and Pu„u Honu also being identified on historic maps—Pu„u Kamali„i (Hill of the Children - perhaps referring to the children of Hina), or Pu„u Ali'i (Royal Hill) would apparently be the middle hill, as there is no other hill in the vicinity [Maly and Maly 2003:14-19]. The story of the three hills is an important part of the cultural memories of older Hilo residents, though it is not often visited for specific cultural practices. Pu„uhonu was recommended for preservation (Escott 2017). 29 PREVIOUS ARCHAEOLOGICAL INVESTIGATIONS At least fourteen archaeological studies were conducted in the area near the current project area (Figure 8 and Table 2). Six studies included portions of Kūkūau 1st Ahupua„a (Kelly & Athens 1982, Neslon et al. 2006, Rosendahl 1988, Rechtman 2009, Wickler & Ward 1992, and Wilkinson et al. 2012). The vast majority of studies did not encounter archaeological sites. This is not surprising since much of the area within Hilo town has been developed. It is likely that most archaeological remains have been disturbed and obscured by construction activities associated with modern development (Hudson 1932:226). Thrum (1907) and Stokes and Dye (1991) documented heiau located on the Island of Hawai„i. Many of the heiau in the Hilo area had been dismantled by the time Thrum arrived to document them. There were no heiau located in Kūkūau 1st Ahupua„a. Only five of the fourteen previous archaeology studies documented a few archaeological sites (see Table 2). Walker and Rosendahl (1996) recorded five historic sugarcane sites, including Waiakea Sugar Plantation field features and remains from the old Hilo Sugar Company mill. Pre-Contact era artifacts were recovered from one feature, indicating a pre-Contact component. The plantation field features and pre-Contact era artifacts were identified south of Hāla„i Hill in Ponahawai Ahupua„a, outside of the current project area (see Figure 8). The old Hilo Sugar Company mill site is east of the current project area, though the mill is no longer present, and more modern structures have been built over the site. None of the archaeological sites documented in Walker and Rosendahl (1996) will be impacted by the proposed cellular tower undertaking. Clark and Rechtman (2006) also recorded a single sugarcane era rock mound south of the current project area. Wolforth (2006) recorded the Kanakea fishpond, pecked basins, and three historic sites, all of which east of the current project area. 30 Figure 8: 7.5-Minute Series USGS Topographic Map Showing Location of Project Area (Green Border) and Previous Archaeological Studies (National Geographic Topo!, 2003, USGS Hilo Quadrangle). 31 Table 2: Previous Archaeological Studies Near the Project Area.

None of the previously identified archaeological sites will be affected by the current undertaking. Rechtman Consulting, LLC conducted an AIS study (Nelson et al. 2006) adjacent to the current project area that included a narrow study corridor bisecting the current project area (see Figure 8 and Figure 9). A single archaeological site (Site #50-10-35- 25547) was recorded on TMK: (3) 2-4-025: 048 (Figure 10 and Figure 11). Site 25547 is a 24.0 m long (NE/SW) by 2.0 m wide by 2.0 m high Historic era linear enclosure constructed along a naturally occurring crack in a raised pāhoehoe bedrock outcrop (Nelson et al. 2006:12). The bedrock crack as been modified in three locations by stacking cobbles along the sides and across the middle of the crack (see Figure 11). The enclosure was likely constructed to keep animals. Site 25547 appeared to be unaltered and was in good condition. Site 25547 is considered significant under Criterion d, as having, or likely to yield information important to Historic era animal husbandry features. No further work was recommended for Site 25547 (Nelson et al. 2006:18). The AIS report was approved by the Hawai„i State Historic Division (SHPD) (Log No. 2006.3275, Doc. No. 0609JT83, Approval Letter dated September 28, 2006). Scientific Consultant Services, Inc. (SCS) conducted an Archaeological Assessment (AA) for Parcel 080 (Escott 2019) to identify archaeological sites and/or historic properties within the survey area (see Figure 8). Parcel 080 is a private access easement with a paved driveway down the center of the parcel. The driveway provides access for residential homes on property along the west and south boundaries of Parcel 080. There is a modern drainage culvert constructed in the 1970s that crosses the center of Parcel 080 from the west to east. There were no archaeological sites or historic properties identified during the field inspection. 33 Figure 9: TMK: (3) 2-4-025 Map Showing Location of Current Housing Project Area Shaded Yellow and Nelson et al.

The results of the records search indicate that there are nineteen sites listed on the Hawai„i Register of Historic Places (Figure 12 and Table 3). Two of those sites are also listed on the National Register of Historic Places. The sites include two historic districts, several church buildings, schools, commercial buildings, homes, and a Portuguese oven. Many of the buildings are characteristic of period style architecture. Other than the nineteen sites listed in Table 3, there are no other previously recorded archaeological sites or structures eligible for listing within one half-mile of the current project area. There are a limited number of structures within one half-mile of the project area that are more than 50 years old that were not selected for listing on either register. 37 Figure 12: 7.5-Minute Series USGS Topographic Map Showing Location of Project Area Shaded Yellow and Historic Registered Sites Within One Half Mile Radius (National Geographic Topo!, 2003, USGS Hilo Quadrangle). 38 Table 3: Inventory of Registered Historic Properties Within a 0.5 Mile Search Radius.

Consultation was sought from each of the four individuals to identify past and ongoing cultural practices, as well as to identify any cultural practitioners that they could recommend for consultation. One individual responded. Table 4: Individuals Responding to CIA. Name Affiliation Responded Has Knowledge Cultural Practices Kalena Blakemore HIBC Representative Yes Some No Kamaile Puluole-Mitchell OHA East Hawai„i No - - Sean Naleimaile SHPD Archaeologist No - - Jordan Kea Calpito SHPD Burial Sites Specialist No - - SUMMARY The “level of effort undertaken” to identify potential effect by a project to cultural resources, places or beliefs (OEQC 1997) has not been officially defined and is left up to the investigator. A good faith effort can mean contacting agencies by letter, interviewing people who may be affected by the project or who know its history, research identifying sensitive areas and previous land use, holding meetings in which the public is invited to testify, notifying the community through the media, and other appropriate strategies based on the type of project being proposed and its impact potential. In the case of the present parcel, letters of inquiry were sent to organizations and individuals whose expertise would include the project area. Consultation was sought from Kamaile Puluole-Mitchell, Office of Hawaiian Affairs (OHA) East Hawai„i Island Representative; Jordan Kea Calpito, SHPD Burial Sites Specialist; Sean Naleimaile, State Historic Preservation Division (SHPD) Hawai„i Island Archaeologist; and Kalena Blakemore, Hawai„i Island Burial Council (HIBC) Member. Public notices were published in the Office of Hawaiian Affairs Ka Wai Ola Newspaper, and were published in the Honolulu Star-Advertiser and the Hawai„i Tribune Herald. 40 Historical and cultural source materials were extensively used and can be found listed in the References Cited portion of the report. Such scholars as I„i, Kamakau, Chinen, Kame„eleihiwa, Fornander, Kuykendall, Kelly, Handy and Handy, Puku„i and Elbert, Thrum, and Cordy have contributed, and continue to contribute to our knowledge and understanding of Hawai„i, past and present. The works of these and other authors were consulted and incorporated in the report where appropriate. Land use document research was supplied by the Waihona „Aina 2007 Data Base. CIA INQUIRY RESPONSE As suggested in the “Guidelines for Accessing Cultural Impacts” (OEQC 1997), CIAs incorporating personal interviews should include ethnographic and oral history interview procedures, circumstances attending the interviews, as well as the results of this consultation. It is also permissible to include organizations with individuals familiar with cultural practices and features associated with the project area. As stated above, consultation was sought from Kamaile Puluole-Mitchell, Office of Hawaiian Affairs (OHA) East Hawai„i Island Representative; Jordan Kea Calpito, SHPD Burial Sites Specialist; Sean Naleimaile, State Historic Preservation Division (SHPD) Hawai„i Island Archaeologist; and Kalena Blakemore, Hawai„i Island Burial Council (HIBC) Member. Public notices were printed in the the September 2019 issue of the Office of Hawaiian Affairs (OHA) Ka Wai Ola Newspaper. Public notices were also published in the Honolulu Star- Advertiser, and the Hawai„i Tribune Herald on August 14th, 15th, and 18th. The public notices did not generate responses from the public. This fact is not surprising since it is unlikely as there no known inland locations in Hilo town where gathering or cultural practices occur. An analysis of the potential effect of the proposed construction of residences on cultural resources, practices or beliefs, its potential to isolate cultural resources, practices or beliefs from their setting, and the potential of the project to introduce elements which may alter the setting in which cultural practices take place is a requirement of the OEQC (No. 10, 1997). To our knowledge, the project area was used a location for animal husbandry in the late Historic to Modern eras. Based on historical research and responses from the above listed contacts, it is reasonable to conclude that, as the current project was not and is not a location for past and ongoing cultural practices, there will be no traditional cultural practices affected and there will be no direct adverse effect upon cultural practices or beliefs in the broader project area region. 41 CULTURAL ASSESSMEMNT Based on the results of an Archaeological Assessment of the project area, the results of previous archaeological studies, as well as organizational response, individual cultural informant responses, and archival research, it is reasonable to conclude that, pursuant to Act 50, the exercise of native Hawaiian rights, or any ethnic group, related to gathering, access or other customary activities will not be affected by development activities on this parcel. The proposed project is not a location for past or ongoing cultural practices. The proposed undertaking will not produce adverse effects to any native Hawaiian cultural practices within the project area or in the broader region. 42 REFERENCES CITED Athens, J., T. Reith, and T.

The 5.05-acre project area is located approximately one kilometer southwest the coast ofHilo Bay Front and is bordered Kukuau Street to the west and by Kapi`olani Street to the north. The south and east property boundaries are bordered by undeveloped residential lots. The project area is currently undeveloped. The APE is situated within a built environment that includes residential homes,paved parking lots and walkways,paved roads,and landscaping. The project area property is owned by Giampaolo Boschetti. Rechtman Consulting,LLC conducted an AIS study(Nelson et al. 2006)within portions ofthe current project area[Enclosure 5].A single archaeological site(Site#50-10-35-25547)was recorded on TMK: 3)2-4-025: 048 [Enclosure 6]. Site 25547 is a 24.0 m long(NE/SW)by 2.0 m wide by 2.0 m high Historic era linear enclosure constructed along a naturally occurring crack in a raised pahoehoe bedrock outcrop(Nelson et al. 2006:12). The bedrock crack was modified in three locations by stacking cobbles along the sides and across the middle ofthe crack [Enclosure 7]. The enclosure was likely constructed to keep animals. Site 25547 appeared to be unaltered and was in good condition. Site 25547 was assessed significant under Criterion d, in accordance with eligibility criteria for listing on the Hawai`i Register of Historic Places(HRHP),as having yielded information important to Historic era animal husbandry features. Site 25547 was recorded in detail and there is virtually no excavation potential. Therefore,no further work was recommended for Site 25547(Nelson et al. 2006:18). This site was not considered a traditional cultural property, and there were no natural or cultural resources,or cultural beliefs and practices identified relative to the land within the current study area. The AIS report was approved by the Hawai`i State Historic Division(SHPD)(Log No. 2006.3275, Doc.No. 0609JT83, Approval Letter dated September 28,2006). Site 25547 is not eligible/recommended for listing on the NRHP. The animal pen does not have excavation potential and has been fully recorded in the Nelson et al. (2006)AIS report. The SHPD- accepted AIS report recommended no further work and archaeological preservation is not warranted. Scientific Consultant Services, Inc.(SCS)conducted an AA for Parcel 080(Escott 2019a,HICRIS Project 2021PR00880)to identify archaeological sites and/or historic properties within the survey area Enclosure 8]. Parcel 080 is a private access easement with a paved driveway down the center ofthe parcel. The driveway provides access for residential homes on property along the west and south boundaries ofParcel 080. There is a modern drainage culvert constructed in the 1970s that crosses the center of Parcel 080 from the west to east. There were no archaeological sites or historic properties identified during the field inspection. Scientific Consultant Services,Inc.(SCS)conducted a CIA(Escott 2019b)to identify and assess any possible impacts to past or ongoing cultural practices. The CIA concluded that based on archival research, the results ofprevious archaeological studies,a review of NRHP and HRHP eligible historic properties within a one-halfmile radius, as well as organizational response and individual cultural informant responses, it is reasonable to conclude that,pursuant to Act 50,the exercise of native Hawaiian rights, or Alan Downer, PhD State Historic Preservation Officer March 2, 2022 Page 3 any ethnic group,related to gathering, access or other customary activities will not be affected by the proposed Kaiaulu o Kapi`olani Affordable Housing Project. The proposed undertaking will not produce adverse effects to any native Hawaiian cultural practices within the project area or in the broader region. OHCD conducted Section 106 consultation Native Hawaiian Organizations(NHO), Hawai`i Island traditional cultural practitioners,and long-time community members.A record of Section 106 consultation is included with this letter.None of the respondents knew of any historic properties, archaeological or cultural sites,or past or ongoing cultural practices associated with the project area property. Based on Section 106 consultation conducted for the Kaiaulu o Kapi`olani Affordable Housing Project, the proposed undertaking will have no effect to historic properties, cultural properties,or cultural practices. The OHCD has made a Finding of"No Historic Properties Affected"pursuant to 36 CFR 800.4(d)(1). Included for your review are copies of relevant documents supporting our finding,along with maps showing the location of the property. This documentation satisfies requirements set forth at§800.11(d). In accordance with §800.4(d)(1)(i),your office has thirty days to object to this finding. Please respond within this timeframe, otherwise we will assume that you concur with our finding.If you concur,please sign on the line below and return a copy of this letter to Assistant Housing Administrator Harry Yada.

O Kapi'olani Housing Project. SHPD received the initial project submission on July 26, 2021. The submittal consisted of an archacological assessment titled, An Archaeological Assessment for a 0,.6447-acre Property in Kukiau 1' Ahupua'a, South Hilo Districr, Hawai 'i Island, Hawai'i TMK (3)2-4-025: *080 (Escott 2019a, revised March 2022) prepared on behalf of the Urban Housing Communities, LLC., a cultural impact assessment (Escott 2019) for parcel 080 and an archaeological summary letter report (Escott 2019b) that indicated the project area includes parcels 048, 053, and 080 (Submission No. 2021PR00880. 001). The submission indicated the landowner is Mr. Giampaolo Boschetti and that Urban Housing Communities, LLC, is managing the proposed project. On July 26, 2021, SHPD requested additional information, indicating that if federal funds were being used, our office looked forward to receiving a letter fron the appropriate agency initiating NHPA Section 106 consultation with the State Historic Preservation Officer (SHPO). In response, SHPD received a letter dated March 2, 2022, from the Office of Housing and Community Developinent (OHCD) indicating that the project was seeking funding from the U.S. Department of Urban Housing (HUD) and that OHCD is the County agency responsible for compliance with HRS 6E statutes and the Section 106 consultation. OHCD provided a project overview, identification of the HRS 6E and federal area of potential effect (APE), which are synonymous, previous archaeological studies and findings, and requested the SHPO 's concurrence with a finding of no historic properties affected pursuant to 36 CFR 800.4(d)(1) for the proposed undertaking, The SHPD received this letter on March 4, 2022, along with a letter dated February 9, 2022, from the archacological consultant (Glenn Escott) to the OHCD, summanizing the archacological studies undertaken and the Scction 106 consultation effort (Submission No. 2021PR00880. .003), OHCD indicates that the proposed project is the development of an affordable rental complex of 64-units, community center and 117-stall parking lot. The project consists of the construction of nine (9) residential units and will include grubbing, grading, and trenching for utility infrastructure. The project area and area of potential effect (APE) and project area includes the entirety of TMK: (3) 2-4- -025:048, 053, and 080. Ground disturbance consists of grubbing, grading, and trenching within the entire 5.0499-acre project area. Acrial photographs show the project area is mostly undeveloped land, Susan Kunz 05/11/2022 Page 2 SHPD records confirm that portions of the current project area/APE were included in an archaeological survey (AIS Nelson et a1. 2006) conducted by Rechtman Consulting, LLC for a previous waterline project. Nelson et al. (2006) identified a single historic property, a historic enclosure (Site 50-10-35- -25547) within TMK: (3) 2-4 -025:048. They indicated it was significant under HAR $13-284 -6 Criterion d, as having yielded information about historic animal husbandry features, that it was adequately documented during the AlS and, thus, they recommended no further archaeological work, SHPD concurred with the findings and recommendations and accepted the AlS report on September 28, 2006 (Log No. 2006.3275, Doc. No. 0609JT83) Scientific Consultant Services, Inc. (SCS) conducted the current AlS for the easement portion of the project area/APE [TMK: (3) 2-4-025:080]. Escott (2019a) indicates the AIS involved a 100% coverage pedestrian survey of the easement and that no historic properties were identified, thus the negative findings are presented in an archacological assessment (AA) report in accordance with HAR $13. -284-5(b)(5)(A) SHPD requested revisions via email [Susan Lebo (SHPD) to Glenn Escott (SCS)] for the AA (Escott 2019a) on March 20, 2022, On April 4, 2022, SHPD received from SCS the revised AA report (Escott, March 2022) and a letter dated March 24, 2022, summarizing the revisions (Submission No. 2021PR00880 007). On the same day SHPD also received a letter dated March 23, 2022, from OHCD requesting SHPD's concurtence with a determination of "'No Historic Properties Affected" pursuant to HAR 813- -284-7(a)(1), along with plans showing the limits of proposed disturbance, a current land use map (Submission No. 2021PR00880. 005), and a HRS 6E Submittal Form (Submission No. 2021PR00880 .006) The OHCD and SCS submissions indicate that no historic properties were identified during current AIS (Escott 2019; revised March 2022) conducted within TMK: (3) 2-4-025:080, and that the single historic property (Site 50- 10-35-25547) was identified previously within TMK: (3) 2-4-025:048. Additionally, Site 50- -10-35-25547 (historic enclosure) and that SHPD concurred that this site had been adequately documented. The OHCD and SCS submissions also indicate that nineteen (19) historic properties eligible for listing in the National Register of Historic Places (NRHP) were identified with a one-half mile radius of the current project area/APE. However, the project will have no direct or indirect (c.g., visual) impacts of these eligible historic properties. Based on the information provided, the SHPO concurs with the OHCD's determination of no historic properties affected for the proposed undertaking pursuant to 36 CFR 800.5(b). Additionally, SHPD concurs with OHCD's determination of "No historic properties affected pursuant to HAR $13- -275-7(a)(1). The NHPA Section 106 and the HRS 6E historic preservation review processes are concluded. The project initiation process may_proceed The OHCD is the office of record for this project. Please maintain a copy of this letter with your environmental review record for this undertaking. The revised AA report meets the minimum requirements of HAR $13-276-5. It is accepted.

A, B, and C, Saddle Road Well “A”, and the UH Hilo Well (all of which are groundwater sources). These source(s) may change depending on the supply and demand.Water Conservation TipsDid you know that the average U.S. household uses approximately 400 gallons of water per day or 100 gallons per person per day? Luck-ily, there are many low-cost and no-cost ways to conserve water. Small changes can make a big difference - try one today and soon it will become second nature.• Take short showers - a 5 minute shower uses 4 to 5 gallons of water compared to up to 50 gallons for a bath.• Use a water-efficient showerhead. They’re inexpensive, easy to install, and can save you up to 750 gallons a month.• Shutting off water while brushing your teeth, washing your hair, and shaving could save up to 500 gallons a month.• Run your clothes washer and dishwasher only when they are full. You can save up to 1,000 gallons a month.• Water plants only when necessary.• Fix leaky toilets and faucets. Faucet washers are inexpensive and take only a few minutes to replace. To check your toilet for a leak, place a few drops of food coloring in the tank and wait. If it seeps into the toilet bowl without flushing, you have a leak. Fixing it or replacing it with a new, more efficient model can save up to 1,000 gallons a month.• Teach your kids about water conservation to ensure a future generation that uses water wisely. Make it a family effort to reduce next month’s water bill!For more information,visit us at www.hawaiidws.org& follow the conservation links or visit www.epa.gov/watersenseSource WaterAssessment ProgramIn 2004, the preliminary source water assessment report was released. The purpose of the source water assessment report is to enable the public and deci-sion-makers to make well-founded decisions for the protection and preservation of our drinking water. The source water assessment report identifies the potential contaminating activities for each source of water.In the report, Hilo Water System sources are poten-tially vulnerable to contaminants associated with the following activities: roads, septic tanks, cesspools, sewer lines, injection wells, residential parcel, cul-tivated agriculture, and sugarcane. Note: the list of potential contaminating activities has not necessarily been associated with anything found in the water. For more information, please contact Kawika Uyehara, P.E., at 961-8670.How can I get involved?The Water Board meets the fourth Tuesday of every month. Call for the time and location of the meeting.

In 1974, Congress passed the Safe Drinking Water Act in order to protect the nation’s public drinking water supply. This law gives the EPA authority to set the standards for drinking water quality (to determine what levels of contaminants are safe to have in the water) and to oversee the states and water suppliers who implement these standards.The EPA requires community water systems to deliver a CCR, also known as an annual drinking Water Quality Report, to their customers. These reports provide information to customers about their drinking water quality for the past year. All water quality reports must contain certain content elements and must be made available each year by July 1st for the preceeding year.The EPA determines what levels of contaminants are safe to have in the water, and the water quality report will show customers how the levels of contaminants in their water source compare to the EPA standard.The water system must provide the EPA standard in the data table for each regulated contaminant detected. The customer can then compare the level of contaminants in their water to the EPA standard.Is my water safe?Yes it is. Last year, as in years past, our tap water met all U.S. EPA and State drinking water health standards. HDWS vigilantly safeguards its water supplies and once again we are proud to report that we have complied with all drinking water standards.Why are there contaminantsin my drinking water?Drinking water, including bottled water, may reasonably be expected to contain at least small amounts of some contaminants. The presence of contaminants does not necessarily indicate that water poses a health risk. More information about contaminants and potential health effects can be obtained by calling the EPA Safe Drinking Water Hotline 1-(800) 426-4791. If you have any questions regarding this Water Quality Report, please call Kawika Uyehara, P.E., at 961-8670.Do I need to take special precautions?Some people may be more vulnerable to contaminants in drinking water than the general population. Immuno-compromised persons such as persons with cancer undergoing chemotherapy, persons who have undergone organ transplants, people with HIV/AIDS or other immune system disorders, some elderly, and infants can be particularly at risk from infections. These people should seek advice about drinking water from their health care providers. EPA/CDC guidelines on appropriate means to lessen the risk of infection by Cryptosporidium and other microbial contaminants are available from the EPA Safe Drinking Water Hotline at 1-(800) 426-4791.Sources of drinking waterThe sources of drinking water (both tap water and bottled water) include rivers, lakes, streams, ponds, reservoirs, springs, and wells. As water travels over the surface of the land or through the ground, it dissolves naturally-occurring minerals and, in some cases, radio-active material, and can pick up substances resulting from the presence of animals or from human activity.Contaminants that may be present in source water include:•Microbial contaminants, such as viruses and bacte-ria, which may come from sewage treatment plants, septic systems, agricultural livestock operations, and wildlife.•Inorganic contaminants, such as salts and metals, which can be naturally-occurring or result from urban stormwater runoff, industrial or domestic wastewater discharges, oil and gas production, mining, or farm-ing.•Pesticides and herbicides, which may come from a variety of sources such as agriculture, urban stormwa-ter runoff, and residential uses.•Organic chemical contaminants, including synthetic and volatile organic chemicals, which are byproducts of industrial processes and petroleum production, and can also come from gas stations, urban stormwater runoff, and septic systems.•Radioactive contaminants, which can be naturally-occur-ring or be the result of oil and gas production and mining activities.In order to ensure that tap water is safe to drink, the EPA prescribes regulations which limit the amount of certain contaminants in water provided by public water systems. Food and Drug Administration reg-ulations establish limits for contaminants in bottled water which must provide the same protection for public health.Water Quality Report OnlineThis year, you are likely reading the report online, rather than the traditional paper copy sent by mail. The EPA recently changed the requirements to allow utilities to communicate this important information digitally.Customers are still able to request a paper copy and can do so by the following methods. (Please provide us with your account number, phone number, mailing or email address, and water system name so that we can provide you with the correct report.): • Call us at (808) 961-8670• Email us at dws@hawaiidws.org• Write to us at: Department of Water Supply/Micro Lab 889 Leilani Street Hilo, HI 96720Lead and drinking waterIf present, elevated levels of lead can cause serious health problems, especially for pregnant women and young children. Lead in drinking water is primarily from materials and components associated with service lines and home plumbing and not usually from the source water. HDWS is responsible for providing high quality drinking water, but cannot control the variety of materials used in plumbing components. When your water has been sitting in your home plumbing undisturbed for several hours, you can minimize the potential Ior lead e[posure E\ ÁushinJ \our tap Ior  seconds to 2 minutes before using water for drinking or cooking.If you are concerned about lead in your water, you may choose to have your water tested by contacting private laEoratories that are certified E\ the 6tate Ior doinJ drinking water analyses. Information on lead in drinking water, testing methods, and steps you can take to minimize exposure is available from the EPA Safe Drinking Water Hotline or at http://www.epa.gov/safewater/lead. You can also contact the National Lead Information Center at /($'  which proYides the Jeneral public and professionals with information about lead, lead hazards, and their prevention.Sodium in drinking waterThere is no State or Federal maximum contaminant level for sodium. Monitoring for sodium is performed primarily to gather information for the consumers, the Safe Drinking Water Branch, and HDWS.The EPA Drinking Water Advisory recommends that the sodium concentration in drinking water not exceed a ranJe oI  to  ppm Eecause oI the possiEle adYerse effects on taste at higher concentrations. For persons on a sodium-restricted diet, sodium concentrations greater than 120 ppm could be problematic. If you are on a sodium-restricted diet, you should consult your physician about the level of sodium in the drinking water.2018 Water Quality Report 2018 Hilo System Water Quality Data TablesThe table below lists the drinking water contaminants that we detected during the calendar year of this report. The presence of contaminants in the water does not necessarily indicate that the water poses a health risk. Unless otherwise noted, the data presented in this table is from testing done in the calendar year of the report. The EPA or the State requires us to monitor for certain contaminants less than once per year because the concentrations of these contaminants do not change frequently. Some of our data, though representative, are more than one year old.Regulated Contaminant Data TablesRegulated ContaminantsHilo Water SystemContaminants (units)MCLMCLGALLevelFoundRange ofDetectionsSampleDateViolationTypical Source of ContaminantInorganic ContaminantsCopper-source water (ppm)n/an/a1.30.00086ND - 0.004302017NoCorrosion of household plumbing systems; erosion of natural deposits.Chromium (ppb)100100n/a0.26ND - 1.302017NoErosion of natural deposits.Nitrate (ppm)1010n/a0.400.33 - 0.402018NoRunoff from fertilizer use; leaching from septic tanks, sewage; erosion of natural deposits.Lead and Copper Rule ComplianceHilo Water SystemContaminant (units)ALMCLGLevel Found# of sites > ALSample DateViolationTypical Source of ContaminantCopper (ppm)1.31.30.09550/352016NoCorrosion of household plumbing systems; erosion of natural deposits.The 90th percentile value of copper is reported as the level found.Key definitionsof termsused in this report•MCLG = Maximum Contaminant Level Goal: The level of a contaminant in drinking water below which there is no known or expected risk to health.

State projects are required to comply with 44CFR regulations as stipulated in Section 60.12. Be advised that 44CFR reflects the minimum standards as set forth by the NFIP. Local community flood ordinances may stipulate higher standards that can be more restrictive and would take precedence over the minimum NFIP standards. The owner of the project property and/or their representative is responsible to research the Flood Hazard Zone designation for the project. Flood Hazard Zones are designated on FEMA's Flood Insurance Rate Maps (FIRM), which can be viewed on our Flood Hazard Assessment Tool (FHAT) (http://gis.hawaiinfip.org/FHAT). If there are questions regarding the local flood ordinances, please contact the applicable County NFIP coordinating agency below: o Oahu: City and County of Honolulu, Department of Planning and Permitting (808)768-8098. o Hawaii Island: County of Hawaii, Department of Public Works (808) 961-8327. o Maui/Molokai/Lanai County ofMaui, Department of Planning (808) 270-7253. o Kauai: County ofKauai, Department of Public Works (808) 241-4846.

SNIFFEN STATE OF HAWAII DEPARTMENT OF TRANSPORTATION 869 PUNCHBOWL STREET HONOLULU, HAWAII 96813-5097 IN REPLY REFER TO: DIR 0725 STP 8.2733 August 14, 2019 Ms. Rachel Okoji, M.S. President Environmental Risk Analysis LLC 905A Makahiki Way Honolulu, Hawaii 96738 Dear Ms. Okoji: Subject: Kaiaulu O Kapiolani Housing Development Environmental Assessment Pre-Assessment Consultation Hilo, Hawaii Island, Hawaii TMK: (3) 2-4-025:048, 053, 080 The State Department of Transportation (DOT) understands A0705 Hilo, L.P. is proposing this 64-unit affordable housing complex. DOT’s comments on the subject project are as follows: Airports Division (DOT-AIR) The proposed location is within five miles from Hilo International Airport (ITO). Therefore, the developers need to be aware of the following: 1. The project area is approximately 1.55 miles from the end of Runway 3 at ITO. All projects within 5 miles from Hawaii State airports are advised to read the Technical Assistance Memorandum (TAM) for guidance with development and activities that may require further review and permits. The TAM can be viewed at this link: http://files.hawaii.gov/dbedt/op/docs/TAM-FAA-DOT-Airports_08-01-20 16.pdf 2. Due to the proximity of the airport, there is a potential for fumes, smoke, vibrations, odors, etc. that may result from aircraft flight operations over the proposed housing development. 3. Although the project is located outside of the 55 Day-Night Average Sound Levels noise contours on the ITO 2018 Noise Exposure Map (attached), the Applicant and future residents should be aware of the proximity of the airport and potential single event noise from aircraft operations. 4. The Airport Zoning Act, Hawaii Revised Statutes, Chapter 262 requires DOT-AIR to prevent hazards and non-conforming uses that conflict with the Federal Aviation Ms. Rachel Okoji, M.S. STP 8.2733 August 14, 2019 Page 2 Administration (FAA) Hazardous Wildlife Attractants requirements. DOT-AIR recommends that the proposed housing development construction and operation does not create a wildlife attractant. Please review the FAA Advisory Circular 150/5200-33B, Hazardous Wildlife Attractants On Or Near Airports for guidance. 5. Photovoltaic (PV) systems located in or near the approach path of aircrafts into ITO can create a hazardous condition for pilots due to possible glint and glare reflected from the PV array. If glint or glare from the PV array create a hazardous condition for pilots, the owner of the PV system must be prepared to immediately mitigate the hazard upon notification by DOT-AIR and/or FAA. 6. PV systems have been known to emit radio frequency interference (RFI) to aviation dedicated radio signals, disrupting the reliability of air-to-ground communications. Again, the owner of the PV system must be prepared to immediately mitigate the RFI hazard upon notification by DOT-AIR and/or FAA. Highways Division 1. We note that the Applicant's consultant letter did not include any maps or conceptual drawings; therefore, we do not have any early comments relating to the project layout or access details at this time. 2. A Transportation Assessment (TA) or a Traffic Impact Analysis Report (TIAR) should be prepared by a traffic engineer licensed in the State of Hawaii and should be included in the Draft Environmental Assessment (DEA). a. Both the TA/TIAR and the DEA should include a discussion of any traffic impacts generated by the project onto the nearby State highways and to identify any mitigations that will be required at no cost to the State. 3. The DEA should provide additional details if there are any ancillary uses such as a daycare program. This should be accounted for and reflected in the TIAR's trip generation and anticipated pedestrian patterns. If there are any questions, please contact Mr. Blayne Nikaido of the DOT Statewide Transportation Planning Office at (808) 831-7979 or by email at blayne.h.nikaido@hawaii.gov. Sincerely, JADE T.

The proposed action is to build a total of 64 units of affordable housing. The property will consist of a total of 9 buildings, 8 of which will be residential, with one being a community center. The project will be funded in part by the Hawaii Housing Finance and Development Corporation in the form of Federal and State Low Income Housing Tax Credits (LIHTC), Tax Exempt Bonds, and the State’s Rental Housing Revolving Funds. The tax credits will generate equity investment into the project. These units will address the critical housing shortage issue on the island of Hawaii, and specifically to the city of Hilo. Due to the overwhelming demand for affordable housing, A0705 Hilo, L.P. (project proponent) proposes the Kaiaulu O Kapiolani project for the potential to improve the quality of life for residents that cannot afford homes in the area. As the proposed project is in a developed area and has a low potential for adverse environmental impacts, ERA anticipates a Finding of No Significant Impact.

In meantime, if you have any preliminary site plans, drainage studies or environmental studies you can share with me at this time, I’m happy to review. Otherwise, preliminarily, I would suggest a tree survey for the property as it appears one of the few forest stands left in urbanized Hilo. While it may likely have high percentage of non-natives, be a shame to clear cut it if any healthy trees can be saved; happy to consult with you on that. Mahalo. Look forward to hearing from you.

We are still waiting on some information from the client on drainage and sewer. However, the client will be in contact with the Planning Department as the project progresses. A cultural study was conducted for the Site, and the archaeologists mentioned several plant species in their report, but there was no mention of Ohia or Koa. The following is the environmental section of the cultural study: SCS Report 1272-1 ENVIRONMENTAL SETTING The project area is situated on level to moderately sloping land at 95 feet (29 meters) above mean sea level (amsl). The project area substrate is a Mauna Loa lava flow dated between 750 and 1,500 years ago (Wolfe and Morris 1996). Soil in the project area is Keaukaha Series (rKFD) extremely rocky muck overlaying pāhoehoe lava (Sato 1973:27). The soil is thin and well drained with 6% to 20% slopes. Annual rainfall ranges from 120 to 160 inches and drains toward the east. There is a narrow drainage area that bisects the middle of the property. Plant communities in the project are dominated by trees, grasses, ferns, and bushes. Tree species include gunpowder (Trema orientalis), autograph (Clusia rosea), banyan (Ficus sp.), guava (Psidium sp.), and bingabing (Macaranga mappa). We will make sure to note the concern for Ohia and Koa on the project Site. We have also contacted USFWS for information on plant and animals species for the Site, but are still waiting on their response.

HDOT understands the project will consist of the construction of 64 affordable housing units on approximately 5. .05 acres of land in Hilo. Access to the development is proposed to be via Kapiolani Street and Kukuau Street. HDOT has the following comments Airports Division (HDOT-A) HDOT-A has reviewed the Draft EA and thanks the developer for addressing the comments previously provided during Pre- -Assessment ConsuItation in letter STP 8.2733 dated August 14 2019. HDOT-A offers the following additional comments 1. The project is approximately 8,213 feet from the end of Runway 3 at the Hilo International Airport. Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) regulation requires the submittal of FAA Form 7460- 1 Notice of Proposed Construction or Alteration pursuant to the Code of Federal Regulations, Title 14, Part 77.9, if the construction or alteration is within 20, .000 feet of a public use or military airport which exceeds a 100: I surface from any point on the runway of each airport with its longest runway more than 3. ,200 feet Construction equipment and staging area heights, including heights of temporary construction cranes, shall be included in the submittal. The form and criteria for submittal can be found at the following website https://oeaaa.faa.gov/oeaaa/externa Ms. Rachel Okoji STP 8.3229 August 2, 2021 Page 2 2. Please be aware that the FAA has updated the Advisory Circular for Wildlife Hazard Attractants. Please review FAA Advisory Circular 150/5200- -33C, Hazardous Wildlife Attractants on or near Airports for guidance Highways Division (HDOT- -HWY) In 2020, HDOT reviewed and provided comments on the application for an Amendment to Change of Zone for the project site in letter STP 8. 3047 dated October 7, 2020. That application included a Traffic Impact Analysis Report (TIAR) dated June 21, 2019. The TIAR is cited in the Draft EA, however it has not been included 1, The TIAR assessment was based on the project being fully operational in 2021, however the Draft EA describes a delay until 2023. The Final EA should disclose the TIAR assumption is outdated and should qualitatively assess potential impacts to State highways due to the delay in construction 2. HDOT- -HWY 's 2020 comments on the TIAR remain applicable, and are summarized as follows There would be no direct impact to State highways related to the 64- -unit aA affordable housing development. The project would be accessed from two County roadways (Kapiolani Street and Kukuao Street) and would generate a total of 32 net external trips during the A.M. peak hours of traffic, and 42 net external trips during the P.M. peak hours of traffic b. No State highway intersections were included in the TIAR study area However. the project would not have an indirect adverse impact on State highways because 1) the project- -related trips are low and would be distributed across alternative routes in the region that could avoid the use of State roadways, and 2) the nearest State roadways are Hawaii Belt Road (State Route 19) and Saddle Road (State Route 200), both of which are greater than a mile from the project site. The TIAR does not identify traffic impacts to State highways and no mitigation is warranted or recommended If there are any questions, please contact Mr. Blayne Nikaido of the HDOT Statewide Transportation Planning Office at (808) 831-7979 or via email at blayne.h. .nikaido@hawaii gov Sincerely JADE T.

We further appreciate your July 12, 2021 email including the link to the Draft Environmental Assessment. The regulatory requirements of 24 CFR 58.4 require units of local governments to assume the responsibility for environmental review, decision‐making, and actions that would otherwise apply to the Department of Housing and Human Development (HUD) under the provisions of NEPA and other provisions of law that further the purposes of NEPA as “responsible entities”. This includes section 7 of the Endangered Species Act of 1973 (16 U.S.C. 1531 et seq.), as amended. The U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service (Service) understands that the County of Hawaiʻi will administer Federal funding from HUD in support of this project and will therefore act as the responsible entity on behalf of HUD as it pertains to section 7 consultation with the Service. The proposed development site (TMKs [3] 2-4-025:048,053,080) is an undeveloped lot encompassing 5.05 acres in Hilo, on the island of Hawaiʻi. The project proponent, A0705 Hilo, L.P., proposes to develop an affordable rental complex of 64 units, consisting of 32 two-bedroom units, an estimated 24 three-bedroom units, and an estimated 8 four-bedroom units in Hilo. The development will include a community center for resident use and at least 80 parking stalls. This location is already zoned for multi-family dwelling units. Habitat consists mostly of nonnative trees and shrubs. This letter has been prepared under the authority of, and in accordance with, provisions of the Endangered Species Act of 1973 (16 U.S.C. 1531 et seq.) as amended (ESA). We have reviewed United States Department of the Interior FISH AND WILDLIFE SERVICE Pacific Islands Fish and Wildlife Office 300 Ala Moana Boulevard, Room 3-122 Honolulu, Hawaiʻi 96850 Rachel Okoji 2 the information you provided and pertinent information in our files, as it pertains to listed species in accordance with section 7 of the ESA. The Service provides the following comments to assist you in your planning process so that impacts to trust resources can be avoided through site preparation and construction. Our data indicate the following federally listed species may occur or transit through the vicinity of the proposed project area: the threatened Hawaiian goose or nēnē (Branta sandvicensis), the endangered Hawaiian hoary bat or ʻopeʻapeʻa (Lasiurus cinereus semotus), the endangered Hawaiian petrel or ʻuaʻu (Pterodroma sandwicensis), the endangered Hawaiʻi distinct population segment of the band-rumped storm-petrel or ʻakeʻake (Oceanodroma castro), the threatened Newell’s shearwater or ʻaʻo (Puffinus auricularis newelli), the endangered Hawaiian stilt or aeʻo (Himantopus mexicanus knudseni), the endangered Hawaiian coot or ʻalae keʻokeʻo (Fulica alai), and the endangered Blackburn’s sphinx moth (Manduca blackburni). The Hawaiian petrel, band-rumped storm-petrel, and Newell’s shearwater will hereafter, collectively be referred to as “Hawaiian seabirds,” and the Hawaiian stilt and Hawaiian coot will be referred to as “Hawaiian waterbirds.” There is no critical habitat for listed species in the vicinity of this proposed project. The Hawaiian hawk or ʻio (Buteo solitarius), a species that was recently removed from the Federal list of threatened and endangered species, is known to occur in the area. While the Service no longer consults on the Hawaiian hawk, this species is still protected under Hawaiian state regulations (H.R.S. §195D-4) and the Migratory Bird Treaty Act (16 U.S.C. 703-712). Please see our recommendations below and reference the aforementioned regulations for any additional consultation or mitigation requirements. Hawaiian goose The Hawaiian goose is found on the islands of Hawaiʻi, Maui, Molokaʻi, and Kauaʻi. They are observed in a variety of habitats, but prefer open areas, such as pastures, golf courses, wetlands, natural grasslands and shrublands, and lava flows. Threats to the species include introduced mammalian and avian predators, wind energy facilities, and vehicle strikes. To avoid and minimize potential project impacts to the Hawaiian goose we recommend you incorporate the following measures into your project plan: • Do not approach, feed, or disturb the Hawaiian goose. • If a Hawaiian goose is observed loafing or foraging within the project area during the breeding season (September through April), have a biologist familiar with Hawaiian goose nesting behavior survey for nests in and around the project area prior to the resumption of any work. Repeat surveys after any subsequent delay of work of 3 or more days (during which the birds may attempt to nest). • Cease all work immediately and contact the Service for further guidance if a nest is discovered within a radius of 150 feet (ft) of proposed project, or a previously undiscovered nest is found within the 150-ft radius after work begins. • In areas where Hawaiian goose are known to be present, post and implement reduced speed limits, and inform project personnel and contractors about the presence of endangered species on-site. Hawaiian hoary bat Rachel Okoji 3 The Hawaiian hoary bat roosts in both exotic and native woody vegetation across all islands and will leave young unattended in trees and shrubs when they forage. If trees or shrubs 15 ft or taller are cleared during the pupping season, there is a risk that young bats could inadvertently be harmed or killed since they are too young to fly or may not move away. Additionally, Hawaiian hoary bats forage for insects from as low as 3 ft to higher than 500 ft above the ground and can become entangled in barbed wire used for fencing. To avoid and minimize impacts to the endangered Hawaiian hoary bat we recommend you incorporate the following applicable measures into your project plan: • Do not disturb, remove, or trim woody plants greater than 15 ft tall during the bat-birthing and pup-rearing season (June 1 through September 15). • Do not use barbed wire for fencing. Hawaiian seabirds Hawaiian seabirds may traverse the project area at night during the breeding, nesting and fledging seasons (March 1 to December 15). Outdoor lighting could result in seabird disorientation, fallout, and injury or mortality. Seabirds are attracted to lights and after circling the lights they may become exhausted and collide with nearby wires, buildings, or other structures or they may land on the ground. Downed seabirds are subject to increased mortality due to collision with automobiles, starvation, and predation by dogs, cats, and other predators. Young birds (fledglings) traversing the project area between September 15 and December 15, in their first flights from their mountain nests to the sea, are particularly vulnerable to light attraction. To avoid and minimize potential project impacts to seabirds we recommend you incorporate the following measures into your project plan: • Fully shield all outdoor lights so the bulb can only be seen from below. • Install automatic motion sensor switches and controls on all outdoor lights or turn off lights when human activity is not occurring in the lighted area. • Avoid nighttime construction during the seabird fledging period, September 15 through December 15. Hawaiian waterbirds Hawaiian waterbirds are currently found in a variety of wetland habitats including freshwater marshes and ponds, coastal estuaries and ponds, artificial reservoirs, Colocasia esculenta (kalo or taro) loʻi or patches, irrigation ditches, sewage treatment ponds. Hawaiian stilts may also be found wherever ephemeral or persistent standing water may occur. Threats to these species include nonnative predators, habitat loss, and habitat degradation. Based on the project details provided, your project may result in the creation of standing water or open water that could attract Hawaiian waterbirds to the project site. In particular, the Hawaiian stilt is known to nest in sub-optimal locations (e.g., any ponding water), if water is present. Hawaiian waterbirds attracted to sub-optimal habitat may suffer adverse impacts, such as predation and reduced reproductive success, and thus the project may create an attractive nuisance. Therefore, we recommend you work with our office during project planning so that we Rachel Okoji 4 may assist you in developing measures to avoid impacts to listed species (e.g., fencing, vegetation control, predator management). To avoid and minimize potential project impacts to Hawaiian waterbirds we recommend you incorporate the following applicable measures into your project plan: • In areas where waterbirds are known to be present, post and implement reduced speed limits, and inform project personnel and contractors about the presence of endangered species on-site. • If water resources are located within or adjacent to the project site, incorporate applicable best management practices regarding work in aquatic environments into the project design (see enclosed Aquatic Best Management Practices). • Have a biological monitor that is familiar with the species’ biology conduct Hawaiian waterbird nest surveys where appropriate habitat occurs within the vicinity of the proposed project site prior to project initiation. Repeat surveys again within 3 days of project initiation and after any subsequent delay of work of 3 or more days (during which the birds may attempt to nest). If a nest or active brood is found: o Contact the Service within 48 hours for further guidance. o Establish and maintain a 100-ft buffer around all active nests and/or broods until the chicks have fledged. Do not conduct potentially disruptive activities or habitat alteration within this buffer. o Have a biological monitor that is familiar with the species’ biology present on the project site during all construction or earth moving activities until the chicks fledge to ensure that Hawaiian waterbirds and nests are not adversely impacted. Blackburn’s sphinx moth The adult Blackburn’s sphinx moth feeds on nectar from native plants, including Ipomoea pes- caprae (beach morning glory), Plumbago zeylanica (ʻilieʻe), Capparis sandwichiana (maiapilo), and others. Blackburn’s sphinx moth larvae feed on nonnative Nicotiana glauca (tree tobacco), and native, federally listed, Nothocestrum spp. (ʻaiea). To pupate, the larvae burrow into the soil and can remain in a state of torpor for a year or more before emerging from the soil. Soil disturbance can result in death of the pupae. We offer the following survey recommendations to assess whether the Blackburn’s sphinx moth occurs within the project area: • A biologist familiar with the species should survey areas of proposed activities for Blackburn’s sphinx moth and its larval host plants prior to work initiation. o Surveys should be conducted during the wettest portion of the year (usually November-to-April or several weeks after a significant rain) and within 4-to-6 weeks prior to construction. o Surveys should include searches for adults, eggs, larvae, and signs of larval feeding (i.e., chewed stems, frass, or leaf damage). o If moths, eggs, larvae, or native ʻaiea or tree tobacco over 3-ft tall, are found during the survey, please contact the Service for additional guidance to avoid impacts to this species. Rachel Okoji 5 If no Blackburn’s sphinx moth, ʻaiea, or tree tobacco are found during surveys, it is imperative that measures be taken to avoid attraction of Blackburn’s sphinx moth to the project location and prohibit tree tobacco from entering the site. Tree tobacco can grow greater than 3-ft tall in approximately 6 weeks. If it grows over 3-ft tall, the plants may become a host plant for Blackburn’s sphinx moth. We therefore recommend that you: • Remove any tree tobacco less than 3-ft tall. • Monitor the site every 4-to-6 weeks for new tree tobacco growth before, during, and after the proposed ground-disturbing activity. o Monitoring for tree tobacco can be completed by any staff, such as groundskeeper or regular maintenance crew, provided with picture placards of tree tobacco at different life stages. Hawaiian hawk The Hawaiian hawk was recently federally delisted but remains a listed species under Hawaiʻi State law. The Hawaiian hawk is known to occur across a broad range of forest habitats throughout the island of Hawaiʻi. Loud, irregular and unpredictable activities, such as using heavy equipment or building a structure, near an endangered Hawaiian hawk nest may cause nest failure. Harassment of Hawaiian hawk nesting sites can alter feeding and breeding patterns or result in nest or chick abandonment. Nest disturbance can also increase exposure of chicks and juveniles to inclement weather or predators. To avoid and minimize impacts to Hawaiian hawks we recommend you incorporate the following applicable measures into your project plan: • If work must be conducted between March 1 through September 30, during the Hawaiian hawk breeding season, have a biologist familiar with the species conduct a nest search of the project footprint and surrounding areas immediately prior to the start of construction activities. o Pre-disturbance surveys for Hawaiian hawks are only valid for 14 days. If disturbance for the specific location does not occur within 14 days of the survey, conduct another survey. • Clearing of vegetation or construction activities should not occur within 1,600 ft of any active Hawaiian hawk nest during the breeding season until the young have fledged. • Regardless of the time of year, avoid trimming or cutting trees containing a hawk nest, as nests may be re-used during consecutive breeding seasons. Other Measures to Reduce Mortality of Listed Animal Species Additional measures for housing developments common to all listed animal species that will reduce mortality or predation include the following: • Post and enforce low speed limits to reduce vehicle collisions with wildlife. • Require all pets, including cats and dogs, to be on leash at all times outside. • Require garbage cans with lids to reduce populations of rats and mongoose, which are invasive species and prey upon native and endangered species. • Provide signage instructing residents and visitors to avoid approaching, feeding, or disturbing wildlife. Rachel Okoji 6 The Service recommends incorporating all applicable avoidance and minimization measures into your project design to avoid and minimize effects on protected species. If you determine the proposed project may affect federally listed species, we recommend you contact our office early in the planning process so that we may assist you with ESA compliance. We appreciate your efforts to conserve protected species.

Sincerely, Island Team Manager Maui Nui and Hawaiʻi Island Enclosure (1): Aquatic Best Management Practices cc: Desiree Moore, Hawaiʻi County Janice Takahashi, HHFDC Pacific Islands Fish and Wildlife Service Field Office Adminstrative Staff U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service Recommended Standard Best Management Practices The U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service (USFWS) recommends the following measures to be incorporated into project planning to avoid or minimize impacts to fish and wildlife resources. Best Management Practices (BMPs) include the incorporation of procedures or materials that may be used to reduce either direct or indirect negative impacts to aquatic habitats that result from project construction-related activities. These BMPs are recommended in addition to, and do not over-ride any terms, conditions, or other recommendations prepared by the USFWS, other federal, state or local agencies. If you have questions concerning these BMPs, please contact the USFWS Aquatic Ecosystems Conservation Program at 808-792-9400. 1. Authorized dredging and filling-related activities that may result in the temporary or permanent loss of aquatic habitats should be designed to avoid indirect, negative impacts to aquatic habitats beyond the planned project area. 2. Dredging/filling in the marine environment should be scheduled to avoid coral spawning and recruitment periods, and sea turtle nesting and hatching periods. Because these periods are variable throughout the Pacific islands, we recommend contacting the relevant local, state, or federal fish and wildlife resource agency for site specific guidance. 3. Turbidity and siltation from project-related work should be minimized and contained within the project area by silt containment devices and curtailing work during flooding or adverse tidal and weather conditions. BMPs should be maintained for the life of the construction period until turbidity and siltation within the project area is stabilized. All project construction-related debris and sediment containment devices should be removed and disposed of at an approved site. 4. All project construction-related materials and equipment (dredges, vessels, backhoes, silt curtains, etc.) to be placed in an aquatic environment should be inspected for pollutants including, but not limited to; marine fouling organisms, grease, oil, etc., and cleaned to remove pollutants prior to use. Project related activities should not result in any debris disposal, non-native species introductions, or attraction of non-native pests to the affected or adjacent aquatic or terrestrial habitats. Implementing both a litter-control plan and a Hazard Analysis and Critical Control Point plan (HACCP – see https://www.fws.gov/policy/A1750fw1.html) can help to prevent attraction and introduction of non-native species. 5. Project construction-related materials (fill, revetment rock, pipe, etc.) should not be stockpiled in, or in close proximity to aquatic habitats and should be protected from erosion (e.g., with filter fabric, etc.), to prevent materials from being carried into waters by wind, rain, or high surf. 6. Fueling of project-related vehicles and equipment should take place away from the aquatic environment and a contingency plan to control petroleum products accidentally spilled during the project should be developed. The plan should be retained on site with the person responsible for compliance with the plan. Absorbent pads and containment booms should be stored on-site to facilitate the clean-up of accidental petroleum releases. 7. All deliberately exposed soil or under-layer materials used in the project near water should be protected from erosion and stabilized as soon as possible with geotextile, filter fabric or native or non-invasive vegetation matting, hydro-seeding, etc. Environmental Risk Analysis LLC 905A Makahiki Way, Honolulu, Hawaii 96826 www.enviroriskhawaii.com August 3, 2022 US Department of the Interior Fish and Wildlife Service Pacific Islands Fish and Wildlife Office 300 Ala Moana Blvd, Room 3-122 Honolulu, HI 96850 Subject: Environmental Assessment for the Kaiaulu O Kapiolani Housing Development TMKs: (3) 2-4-025:048, :053, :080, Hilo, Hawaii Dear Ms. Chelsie Javar-Salas, Thank you for your review and comment on the Draft Environmental Assessment for the Kaiaulu O Kapiolani Housing Development.

TSUJT, Administrator Land Division FROM DAVID G. SMITH, Administrator Division of Forestry and Wildlife SUBJECT: Division of Forestry and Wildlife Comments for the Draft Environmental Assessment (DEA) for the Proposed Kaiaulu O Kapi'olani Housing Development The Department of Land and Natural Resources, Division of Forestry and Wildlife (DOFAW) has received your inquiry regarding the DEA for the Kaiaulu O Kapi'olani housing development in Hilo on the Island of Hawai'i, TMKs: (3) 2-4-25:048, 053 and 080. The proposed project consists of constructing a total of 64 affordable housing units, a community center for resident use and at least 80 parking stalls The State listed Hawaiian Hawk or *Io (Buteo solitarius) is known to occur in the project vicinity DOFAW recommends surveying the area to ensure no Hawaiian Hawk nests are present if trees are to be cut. might be present during the breeding season from March to September. The State listed Hawaiian Hoary Bat or pe"ape' 'a (Lasiurus cinereus semotus) has the potential to occur in the vicinity of the project area and may roost in nearby trees If any site clearing is required this should be timed to avoid disturbance during the bat birthing and pup reanng season (June 1 through September 15). If this cannot be avoided, woody plants greater than 15 feet (4.6 meters) tall should not be disturbed, removed, or trimmed without consulting DOFAW We note that artificial lighting can adversely impact seabirds that may pass through the area at night by causing disorientation. This disorientation can result in collision with manmade artifacts or grounding of birds. For nighttime lighting that might be required, DOFAW recommends that all lights be fully shielded to minimize impacts. Nighttime work that requires outdoor lighting should be avoided during the seabird fledging season from September 15 through December 15 This is the period when young seabirds take their maiden voyage to the open sea. For illustrations and guidance related to seabird- -friendly light styles that also protect the dark, starry skies of Hawaii please visit: https://dInr, hawaii.gov/wildlife/files/2016/03/DOC439.pdf, DOFAW recommends minimizing the movement of plant or soil material between worksites, such as in fill. Soil and plant material may contain invasive fungal pathogens (e.g- Rapid *Ohi'a Death) vertebrate and invertebrate pests (e.g. Little Fire Ants), or invasive plant parts that could harm our We recommend consulting the Big Island Invasive Species native species and ecosystems Committee at (808) 933- -3340 in planning, design, and construction of the project to learn of any high-risk invasive species in the area and ways to mitigate spread. All equipment, materials, and personnel should be cleaned of excess soil and debris to minimize the risk of spreading invasive Gear that may contain soil, such as work boots and vehicles, should be thoroughly cleaned species with water and sprayed with 70% alcohol solution to prevent the spread of Rapid *Ohi'a Death and other harmful fungal pathogens To prevent the spread of Rapid *Dhi'a Death (ROD), if *Ohi'a trees are present and will be removed, trimmed, or potentially injured DOFAW requests that the information and guidance at the following website be reviewed and followed: https://cms ctahr.hawaii .edu/rod DOFAW recommends using native plant species for landscaping that are appropriate for the area (i.e. climate conditions are suitable for the plants to thrive, historically occurred there, etc.). Please DOFAW recommends consulting the Hawai' 'i-Pacific Weed Risk do not plant invasive species Assessment website to determine the potential invasiveness of plants proposed for use in the project (https com/site/weedriskassessment/home) We appreciate your efforts to work with our office for the conservation of our native species Should the scope of the project change significantly, or should it become apparent that threatened or endangered species may be impacted, please contact our staff as soon as possible If you have any questions, please contact Paul Radley, Protected Species Habitat Conservation Planning Associate at (808) 587-0010 or paul.m, radley@hawaii.gov Sincerely, DAVID G.

Mr. Vana owns property designated TMK No. (3) 2-4-25: 132 that borders the land that will comprise the contemplated 64 Unit Kaiaulu O Kapiolani Multifamily Housing Development bearing TMK Nos. (3) 2-4-25:48, 53, 80 (the "Project"). Mr. Vana's adjacent land is improved with three tenant occupied residential buildings. This letter constitutes Mr. Vana' comments as Trustee, individually and as principal of Kavana Homes, Inc., to the above referenced Draft EA. 1. The Project May Have Significant Flooding Problems: Concerns Re Parking Stalls in Drainage Ditch Figure 8: Site Location Map from Nelson et al. shows a Drainage Ditch right down the center of the Project. Similarly, a previous Site Plan by the same Owner for the subject land, "Boschetti Apartment Site Plan", depicts a Drainage Easement, bisecting the 2 site. The Boschetti Apartment Site Plan proposed bridges spanning both ends of the Drainage Easement. The lands that comprise the Project have been described as "Drainageway Lands"1 and have been said to be the subject of "periodic flooding".2The same 2006 Report shows pictures of vegetation near the "drainage channel in the subject parcel" as well as a trio of massive three foot culverts at the "center of the Project Area" looking Southwest3. In light of the above, it is reasonable to conclude that the Project is sited in low lying "drainage" or swamp lands that include a Drainage Easement, and that the site receives substantial volumes of runoff water and indeed "floods periodically". With respect to East Hawaii's propensity to be hammered by torrential rain, the Draft EA states at 4.1.3 that the Hawaiian Islands are regularly affected by Hurricanes, including Hiki (1950), Nina (1957), Dot (1959), Iwa (1982), Iniki (1992) and Iselle (2014). The Draft EA further acknowledges that "global climate change" could mean that Hawaii will have more Hurricanes in the future. Conspicuously absent from the Draft EA is any mention of the affects of record shattering Hurricane Lane of 2018, where upslope Hilo rain gauges recorded a deluge of 52 inches of rain in a couple of days. Hurricane Lane was recognized by FEMA as a "major disaster", with damage to County infrastructure at about 20 million dollars as well as flood damage to at least 150 homes and 30 businesses4 Hurricane Lane caused "the wettest four day period ever observed at Hilo with records going back to 1949".5 Who can forget seeing Hilo streets turn into rivers and the entire Hilo Bayfront area become a vast lake? Events like Hurricane Lane will become more common, as the Project's Draft EA points out. Hilo is the rainiest city in the United States with well over ten feet of rain annually. It is evitable-that the low lying Drainageway Lands comprising the Project will continue to experience periodic flooding as mentioned in the 2006 Report. Flooding and run off are an important environmental concern. Landslides, debris, and erosion can undermine or wash out paved roads, as well as structural members. Flooding can result in personal injury and damages in addition to environmental damage. In light of the above, Mr. Vana disagrees with 5.1.3 of the Draft EA that states that the "risk of flooding" is minimal at the Project and that there should be no significant Environmental concern as to this issue. Mr. Vana instead wonders whether the parking stalls, ADA stalls, and the proposed slab on grade structures themselves sited directly in the Drainage Easement at the center of the Project might end up underwater, especially 1 Nelson, J., M. Clark and R. Rechtman. 2006Archaeological Inventory . . . . for Drainage Way Lands Project (TMKS (3) 3-2-4-25:48, . . . 53, 80 por . . . . . ("2006 Report"). 2 Id. at 4. 3 Figure 15 at 25. 4 Claimsjournal.com 5 National Weather Service 3 after grading within the drainage easement . The above described significant Environmental issues should be addressed fully in the Draft EA.6 2. The Number of Parking Stalls are Insufficient for the Number of People Who will be Living at the Project: Lack of Adequate Parking will Significantly Affect the Surrounding Community The Draft EA at 2.2 states that the proposed Project would include 64 Units, consisting of 32 two-bedroom units, and 24 three bedroom units, and 8 four bedroom Units, and a Community Center. The Draft EA calls for and at least 80 parking stalls. The County mandates just 1.25 parking stalls per unit (64 x 1.25 = 80). While the composition of the prospective renters, families, partners, roommates and friends who may occupy the proposed multi bedroom units at the Project is unknown, it is likely that each of the 64 two, three and four bedroom units will on average need at least two parking stalls. Residents at the Project will also have guests with vehicles. Thus the calculation should be 64 x 2 and the Project should require no fewer than 128 parking stalls. It is important that sufficient parking be provided at the Project, because failure to do so will inevitably result in tenants and guests of the Project parking around the neighborhood wherever they can find parking, as close to the Project as they can find it. Many more cars circling the area looking for parking, equals not merely an increase in inconvenience, but an increase in traffic congestion, green house gas emissions, frustration, and possibly an increase in accidents, trespass, and unlawful parking. 3. The Fact That the Project is so Low that the Sewage Wastewater must be Pumped Uphill Creates a Significant Environmental Impact with Significant Ramifications if the Electricity Goes Out As mentioned above, the Project is sited in a low lying area of Drainageway Lands. It is axiomatic that water, including waste water and sewage do not flow uphill. Most waste water systems do not require electricity to pump wastewater uphill; rather such waste water systems flow down via gravity. Not so with the contemplated Project located in low lying Drainageway Lands. The Project is low relative to the sewer line that is buried on Kukuau Street which will necessitate additional infrastructure to provide electricity to pump the Project's sewage from hundreds of people (12,544 6 Chapter 343 finds and requires: "that the quality of humanity's environment is critical to humanity's well being, that humanity's activities have broad and profound effects upon the interrelations of all components of the environment, and that an environmental review process will integrate the review of environmental concerns with existing planning processes of the State and counties and alert decision makes to significant environmental effects which may result from the implementation of certain actions. The legislature further finds that the process of reviewing environmental effects is desirable because environmental consciousness is enhanced, cooperation and coordination are encouraged, and public participation during the review process benefits all parties involved and society as a whole." HRS 343-1. 4 gallons per day per 5.1.6 of the Draft EA) uphill7 This is a costly and environmentally burdensome plan. The constant pumping of wastewater uphill constitutes a significant environmental impact, especially in the context of global climate change. In the event of a blackout, during a Hurricane or high wind event for an example, or if for any reason the electricity goes out, the pump(s) will not operate and the sewage of hundreds of people (12, 544 gallons each day) will back up. If the power is out for hours or days, and especially if the low lying Project site becomes flooded during torrential rains, the wastewater tank could overflow. Even if the Project developers install a noisy emission producing "back up" diesel generator to pump the sewage uphill in the event of a power outage, the burning of diesel fuel to flush a toilet can reasonably be called a step backwards in terms of environmental protection. The Project does not appear to be "green building Project" and it does not purport to be, even with "energy efficient appliances". Whether or not exacerbation of global climate change will weigh in the approving agency's careful consideration of the environmental impact of the Project, the Project's plan to pump sewage uphill to the tune of 12, 544 gallons per day utilizing electric pumps should be reviewed against concomitant high utility bills, green house gas emissions, and possible environmentally damaging sewage overflows.8 4. Traffic Pattern Circulation Plan Significantly Burdens Kukuau Residents The Project TIAR discussed at 4.2.3 of the Draft EA does not analyze the element of the Project that sets up "right turn in and right turn out" only movements at Kapiolani Street. This traffic circulation plan dumps the extra burden of traffic onto Kukuau Street. Kukuau Street serves a residential "bedroom" area of homes. Kapiolani Street, in front of the Project serves non residential and governmental buildings, including the police station. All the extra traffic on Kukuau, and particularly the heavy equipment, trucks, construction vehicles and workers that follow the proposed circulation pattern during the two plus years of construction, will greatly burden the residential life and homes on Kukuau Street. Kapiolani Street fronting the Project across from the police station with no residences should bear this burden, not Kukuau Street. The Project developers understandably likely desired to economize where they could, but the more just and responsible plan would be to install a center turn lane in front of the police station on Kapiolani Street so that Kapiolani Street with the governmental buildings-and parking lots -not the Kukuau home owners-bear the bulk of the burden of 7 . . . [T]he developer would have to pump sewer up to an elevation . . . into the Kukuau Street collector. Draft EA at 5.2.7. 8 The Supreme Court of Hawaii established precedent in May of 2021of re global climate change requiring the PUC to expressly consider green house gas emissions. In the Matter of the Application of Hawaii Electric Light Company, Inc. etc. (Hawaii Supreme Court 5/24/2021). See also, HAR Sec. 11-200.1.13 (b)(13) setting forth "greenhouse gases" as a "Significance Criteria" in considering environmental effects. 5 the extra traffic that will be generated by the Project, including the parade of construction vehicles and equipment for however many years construction takes place. Why should homeowners and residents along Kukuau have this burden dumped on them because the Project developer doesn't want to pay for traffic control? The Project developer should install a center turn lane. After all, there is a ten foot wide future road widening strip along the entire Kapiolani Street fronting the Project. This road widening with a center turn land should be done now. This will allow left turns into and out of the Project on Kapiolani Street across from the Police Department. As it stands, with no left turns into or out of the Project on Kapiolani, all the traffic will be routed through the back of the Project onto Kukuau Street and then down to the Kukuau/Kapiolani Street intersection. This Kukuau/Kapiolani intersection already has such poor visibility that traffic mirrors have been installed. If the Project traffic is all routed to Kukuau then this Kukuau/Kapiolani Street intersection will urgently need a traffic light. The Draft EA needs to take into account this important health and safety issue given the statutory mandate of HRS 343 and HAR Sec. 11-200.1.3 to fully consider the "sum of the effects" of this Project cumulatively on the "quality of the environment" and the existing community, whose quality of life will not be enhanced by the aforementioned traffic impacts resulting from the Project, as planned. 5. The Nearest Fire Hydrant May be Insufficient To Suppress Fires at the Project Keith Okamoto, P.E. Department of Water Supply states that the existing 8 inch waterline fronting Kapiolani and the existing 6-inch waterline on Kukuau Street are adequate to provide 1,500 gallons GPM.9 for fire protection with respect to the Project. It is Mr. Vana's understanding however that the current fire suppression requirement is 2,000 GPM for multifamily zones. That is, Hydrants are required by law to have water flow and pressure of 2,000 gallons per minute. As an adjacent property owner with tenant occupied buildings, Mr.Vana requests that the Draft EA address this issue not only as to land and buildings bordering the Project, but as to the adverse impact on the environment when there is inadequate water flow and pressure at the Hydrant(s) and the consequences could be fires burning out of control. It is Mr. Vana's understanding that Fire Department and the Department of Water Supply maintain a close working relationship, and that staff operates hydrants quarterly by opening and flowing the water. Mr. Vana requests that a flow test be done to confirm the specific Hydrant serving the Project (per Mr. Okamoto's letter) provides 2,000 GPM and that the results of such a flow test be expressly stated in the Draft EA at 5.1.6. as being adequate for fire suppression. If such a Hydrant flow test does not result in the required 2,000 GPM capacity, the Draft EA should discuss alternatives/or mitigative measures such as sprinklers in each Unit. It was suggested to Mr. Vana at DWS in the past that joining the six inch Kukuau line with the 8 line where it terminates at the police station on Kapiolani Street (approx. 200 ft) would increase water flow to the hydrants. 9 Letter from DWS to Env. Risk etc. 8/14/2019. 6 Green house gasses from preventable fires should be a consideration in the Draft EA. Fires are likely preventable and properly suppressed with adequate 2,000 GMP Hydrants that should be confirmed by a current flow test. 6. Construction Barrier Blocking Solar Panels and Air Circulation, Trash Location Shown on Site Plan Mr. Vana's final comments may seem de minimus, but a closer look proves otherwise. Mr. Vana is concerned that the high construction barriers that will be erected for the two plus years of construction, between his tenant occupied buildings and the Project will shade out the solar panels he has installed on his buildings and block air circulation. The solar panels Mr. Vana installed are important because they provide energy from the sun to his tenants for water heating. If the Project construction barriers shade out the solar panels, his tenants will have no choice but to increase electricity use from environmentally damaging sources such as largely coal and oil powered HELCO. Accordingly, Mr. Vana requests that the Project Draft EA be amended to state that no construction barriers will be installed adjacent to Mr. Vana's property or that such barriers will be set back sufficiently so that air circulation, and sunlight on Mr. Vana's solar panels will not be affected. Finally Mr. Vana requests that the Project not place its Trash receptacle area directly next to his tenant occupied buildings as shown on the Project site Plan. Such trash receptacles placed literally up to the very property line adjacent to Mr. Vana's tenant windows will result in nuisance, racket, from early morning trash pickup trucks, unsightliness and may unnecessarily increase energy consumption as Mr. Vana's tenants deal with increased pests such as ants, flies and rodents, as well as noxious odors.

In response to the comments received. ERA provides the following responses: 1. The Project May Have Significant Flooding Problems: Concerns Re Parking Stalls in Drainage Ditch Drainage on site is being diverted to dry wells installed on the property. The drainage and dry wells are intended to prevent significant flooding and migration off property of site waters. Onsite and Offsite drainage were studied. Reports were provided to the Engineering Division for review and approval. The studies found that proposed culvert conditions would decrease adverse impacts or additional ponding. The installation of drywells would decrease runoff from the site compared to existing conditions. 2. The Number of Parking Stalls are Insufficient for the Number of People Who will be Living at the Project: Lack of Adequate Parking will Significantly Affect the Surrounding Community The parking requirement from Rezoning Ordinance 21-17 is 1.5 stalls per unit (96 stalls). The project has planned 117 stalls for the property. There will be 21 more stalls than the referenced rezoning ordinance (1.82 per unit). In addition, Building code and Fair Housing Act requires 76 stalls be constructed. The proposed number of stalls seeks to address parking availability in the area. 3. The Fact That the Project is so Low that the Sewage Wastewater must be Pumped Uphill Creates a Significant Environmental Impact with Significant Ramifications if the Electricity Goes Out The wastewater system designed for the project will be reviewed by the Wastewater Department for compliance and contingencies will be incorporated into the planning. Environmental Risk Analysis LLC 905A Makahiki Way, Honolulu, Hawaii 96826 www.enviroriskhawaii.com 4. Traffic Pattern Circulation Plan Significantly Burdens Kukuau Residents Traffic from the development will traverse via Kukuau Street and Kapiolani Street. A traffic study done in 2019 determined traffic in the area mainly serviced local traffic and all intersections (Kukuau St and Kupukupu St, Kapiolani St and Kukuau St, and Kapiolani St and Hualalai St) were observed to operate adequately. 5. The Nearest Fire Hydrant May be Insufficient to Suppress Fires at the Project NFPA 1, Uniform Fire Code, 2006 Edition with County of Hawaii amendments, Chapter 18 Fire Department Access and Water Supply will be complied with in the design of the project.

It is unfortunate that I only became aware of this proposal so late in this process, and only through mention in a newspaper article instead of more appropriate, community targeted approach. There are two small signs posted at the perimeter of the property in question; however, they are impossible to read unless interested parties park and exit their vehicles, and doing that would require availability of parking, of which there is none, a subject to be discussed later in this communication. Back in 2010, when the County Council first deliberated approval of Bill 184, changing the zoning of the property in question, it was done in anticipation of a Senior Housing project that later, as many of us suspected, turned out to be a canard, just a device to get the zoning changed. But even as both the Planning Commission and County Council mulled this fictional project, several flaws in the design were corrected, specifically relating to parking density ratio and building height, both of which reduced the proposed occupancy of the project and its burden on the infrastructure of the community. None of those well thought out revisions appear to be present in the current proposal. That failure to look to agreements of the past is not surprising as this project is pushed to completion with minimal oversight. I wish to state for the record that I am not categorically opposed to low income housing at this location; I’m quite aware of this community’s need for this relief. Rather, it is the size of the project that makes no sense if one looks at the community infrastructure at that location and the devasting impact that this huge (for this neighborhood) increase in cars, foot traffic, noise, and social amenities (e.g. playgrounds, etc.) will impose. The areas in need of further study are: 1. Pedestrian safety. Despite the misleading statements in the EIS regarding “berms” in the roadway on Kukuau providing safety to pedestrians, just the opposite is the case. I have included photos of the “walkways” leading from the Kukuau entrance to the property to the only path to town or other community destinations (e.g. playgrounds.) The fact that there are no photos of the pedestrian egress in the EIS makes it IMPOSSIBLE for decision makers to correctly evaluate the extreme danger that pedestrians encounter as they walk to and from their homes. There is a 19 foot right of way with a pavement width of 15 to 17 feet. That homes. There is a 19 foot right of way with a pavement width of 15 to 17 feet. That leaves only 24 inches for safe pedestrian travel (in some places much less BECAUSE of the BERM,) including children walking to school, aligned with a roadway that accumulates significant amounts of water, occasionally floods, and upon which cars are often forced to swerve. The drainage on the roadway/walkway is so faulty now that it is virtually impossible for pedestrians to avoid being splashed by passing cars on rainy days. Cars must slow down if pedestrians happen to be on both sides of the roadway. There is NO SIDEWALK for almost a quarter-mile. The pathway is so narrow that pedestrians must walk SINGLE FILE if they are not to be mauled by passing vehicles. PLEASE look at the photos and ignore the misleading text in the EIS. 2. Traffic. The intersection of Kapiolani and Kukuau was already a bottleneck even BEFORE the Kapiolani segment between Mohouli and Kawili was completed. The EIS doesn’t mention this. Each morning the downtown bound traffic is backed up from Ponahawai. A left turn from Kukuau is an exercise in patience and bravery, despite the concave mirror that was mounted that few can use because it is so distant and small in size. Rendering the Kapiolani exit “right turn only” makes matters much worse, since it puts most heavy-duty traffic on Kukuau, interfering with the safe flow of pedestrian foot traffic (as mentioned above) and impeding the flow on Kukuau in the other direction as the narrow turning area makes traffic on one side of the street stop to allow a vehicle to swing out onto the roadway. This is particularly true of delivery trucks that will only want to use the Kukuau entrance and exit because of the Kapiolani restriction. Please, once again, look at the photos of Kukuau and draw the appropriate conclusion. 3. Parking. There is already NO STREET PARKING on either Kukuau or Kapiolani. I have attached a photo of cars parked all the way up Kukuau but the road narrows past Kumukoa and there is no street parking past that point. I know there’s a formula for allocation parking spaces based on number of units, but 80 doesn’t seem to meet those criteria considering were talking about ALL the units being 2, 3 or FOUR Bedroom. 80 parking spots? By my count, according to the proposal, there will be 138 bedrooms. Three and four bedroom units will no doubt include many multi-adult extended families. In Hilo, with no viable public transportation and constant rain, is it reasonable to assume that there will only be 80 resident vehicles? And what about visitors? Where are they going to park? This is a colossal error in planning. There may be a nominal ratio of 1.75 to 1 for average units, but even that would yield 112 parking spots. And that’s truly not nearly enough with 3 and 4 bedroom units in the mix. Really, somebody needs to wake up on this. I believe that before any final decision is made regarding this, a site visit needs to I believe that before any final decision is made regarding this, a site visit needs to be made and the developer needs to rethink the parking. As far as pedestrian safety is concerned, I think the lower Kukuau walkways need to be totally revamped and drainage issues resolved. As far as traffic is concerned, there needs to be a light at Kukuau and Kapiolani and a light at Kapiolani and Hualalai if this has any chance of working.

Please see below our responses to your concerns. 1.Pedestrian Safety Please note that a traffic study was performed for the proposed project. The study noted: 3.2.2 Pedestrian Accessibility Sidewalks are provided along the following studied roadways in the vicinity of the Project: • Kapiolani Street – Sidewalks are provided along both sides of the roadway. • Kukuau Street – A sidewalk is provided along the eastbound direction of the roadway to the west of Kapiolani Street. • Hualalai Street – Sidewalks are provided along both sides of the roadway to the east of Kapiolani Street. 2.Traffic Please note that a traffic study was performed for the proposed project. The study will be appended to the final document and is attached for your consideration. 3.Parking The parking requirement from Rezoning Ordinance 21-17 is 1.5 stalls per unit (96 stalls). The project has planned 117 stalls for the property. There will be 21 more stalls than the referenced rezoning ordinance (1.82 per unit). Sincerely, Rachel Okoji, M.S. President Mitchell D.

Fourth St., Suite 220 Santa Ana CA 92705 Subject: Draft Environmental Assessment, Kaiaulu O Kapiolani Housing Development Aloha! I wish to provide comments on this draft EA. For the reasons I outline below, I believe that this document does not meet the requirements of the Hawaii Environmental Policy Act (Chapter 343, Hawaii Revised Statutes) nor those of the federal National Environmental Policy Act. It should accordingly be revised and resubmitted as a draft. No Biological Assessment The prepararers of this DEA did not conduct a review of flora and fauna at the site. Instead, as stated on page 32 (page 48 in the pdf), they relied instead on a survey conducted three years ago, for a completely different project, by a completely different consultant, at a completely different site, 2.5 miles distant, and at a much higher elevation. This study is then used as the basis for an assumption “that the project areas would have similar plant and animal species.” There is utterly no basis for this assumption. There is not even a description of the site at which the 2018 survey was done to justify that assumption. Surface Water According to the DEA, there are no streams or surface water features near the site. However, immediately to the west of the site, there is a drainage ditch that collects water from the Pacific Heights townhouses and other sites upslope. Acquaintances of mine who live along this ditch report that it can flood in heavy rains, overtopping stone walls that line it on the mauka side. Flooding in this ditch would potentially impact the Kukuau entrance to the project and needs to be addressed. This ditch is identified as a drainage easement on tax maps (see Tax Map 2-4-25). That same map shows an easement across TMK parcels 2-4-25:80 and 2-4-25:48. The total area of the easement across both parcels comes to more than 21,000 square feet. The nature of this easement and any restrictions that this may place on the development must be addressed. Parking Hawaii County ordinance 21-17, which enabled the development of this project, specifies that, “Should the property be developed as an affordable rental housing project as represented by the applicant, this additional parking requirement shall be 1.5 parking spaces per multiple family residential unit developed.” However, the DEA specifies that just 1.25 parking stalls will be provided. The actual number of stalls required by ordinance is 96, based on a 64-unit development. Kupukupu Street The DEA refers to traffic studies done at the intersection of Kupukupu Street and Kukuau Street. There is no such intersection. Indeed, Kupukupu Street does not seem to intersect with any street that would lead into the property, running just one block in the public housing project that is south of Hualalai Street. If a different, unnamed street is intended, it should be identified on a map. Historic Sites Appended to the DEA are archaeological reports. There is also a letter forwarding one of them to the State Historic Preservation Division. Any response from SHPD should be included; if there has been no response, that, too, should be stated. Traffic The Traffic Impact Analysis Report conducted by Austin Tsutsumi should be appended to the DEA. As one who lives in the neighborhood, I find it hard to believe that “existing traffic volumes in the study area were generally light.” In rush-hour traffic (generally, anytime within an hour of schools opening to about 8:30 am, and from the time schools close to about 5:30 pm) it is difficult to enter onto Kapiolani Street from Kukuau Street. In addition, traffic has been diverted onto Kapiolani Street in the past when Komohana Street is closed because of accidents or bridges washing out. Also, the consultants are said to have studied the intersection of Kukuau and Kupukupu. Without a map, there is no way of knowing where exactly this is. I am not the only one to wish the inclusion of the TIAR: the state Department of Transportation (letter from Jade Butay, DOT director, to ERA, 8/14/19) asks that the TIAR be included in the DEA. Hawaii County Ordinance 21-17 imposes restrictions on traffic into and out of the proposed development: “Access at Kapiolani Street shall be limited to right-turn in and right-turn out movements only.” This will inevitably mean that the preferred entry will be the one running off Kukuau Street, significantly increasing traffic on this substandard, narrow roadway. Was this considered in the TIAR? Other Transportation Issues On page 51, there is this statement: “The roads surrounding the site are considered ‘complete streets,’ which encourage equitable, accessible, and safe transportation for all modes. … Kukuau Street only has a sidewalk provided along the eastbound direction of the roadway. There is a bicycle lane located on Kukuau Street, and a signed shared roadway on Kapiolani Street.” This is fiction. There is nothing anyone would recognize as a sidewalk on Kukuau below its intersection with Kumukoa. There is no bicycle lane on Kukuau Street. There is no “signed shared roadway” on Kapiolani Street near the project site. Confusing Number of Units On page 53 there is a reference to 75 units in the development. Elsewhere the number of units is said to be 64. Speculation re Sewage On this same page, there is a discussion of wastewater services that suggests there has been no communication with the Hawaii County Department of Environmental Management. The DEA states, “There is no sewer main on the site, but there is a 10-inch sewer main located in Kukuau Street that may be an option for wastewater and sewer, as long as it can meet the demand of an extra 14,280 gallons per day.” This is quite remarkable. If it should turn out that the Kukuau sewer line is not able to handle that substantial additional quantity of wastewater, what do the developers propose instead? Ground-Truthing The description of schools in the vicinity suggests that the source may have been an outdated Google map. The Pacific Academy of Music (not really a school, just a private music teacher) has relocated from Kukuau Street to Nanawale Estates, about a 40-minute drive away. Solid Waste This discussion is entirely inadequate, and wrong to boot. On page 60, there is the statement that the “South Hilo Sanitary landfill will have adequate capacity to accommodate waste generated from the proposed project. … There are three facilities nearby that manage solid waste.” The South Hilo Sanitary Landfill is no longer accepting waste. All municipal waste is now transferred to the west side of the island. Also, the “three facilities nearby that manage solid waste” are not identified. As a resident in the area, I am curious to have these sites pointed out to me. The same error with respect to the Hilo landfill appears again in the appendix which addresses federal affordable housing issues. “Residential wastes are disposed of at South Hilo Sanitary Landfill, operated by Waste Management, located to the west of the site in Hilo.” This is mistaken on several points. Not only are wastes not being accepted at the Hilo landfill, this landfill is not operated by Waste Management, and, finally, it is not west of the site, but rather to the east. Finally, it should be stated whether the landowner or agent of the Kaiaulu project will provide trash service for residents. There is no public trash service in Hilo. Residents must either contract with a private service or haul their own rubbish to a transfer station. Health Care The DEA would have the reader believe that the only health care facilities near the project site are run by Kaiser Permanente. There is no mention of the closer Hilo Medical Center or of the even closer campus of medical services at the corner of Ponahawai and Komohana. This same strange omission is repeated in the discussion of Social Services, where, once more, Kaiser Permanente is the sole care provider mentioned. Drainage An issue that is not substantially addressed by the DEA is that of drainage. As anyone walking past the Kapiolani frontage can see, the project site lies significantly below the elevation of the street. In times of heavy rain, this area effectively becomes a swamp. I mentioned earlier the drainage easement identified on the 2-4-25 tax plat. The map that is included in the cultural assessment more clearly identifies this drainage easement as continuing across the property that is the site of the subject development. (Map appears on page 543 of the pdf file.) In addition, on page 13 (608 in pdf) of the letter from ASM to SHPD, a photo is identified as a view of vegetation near the “drainage channel.” While the site may not appear on the FWS wetland index, the soils are appropriately identified as “muck” (pdf 400). Here is a screen shot: The NRCS defines “hydric” soil as “a soil that formed under conditions of saturation, flooding, or ponding long enough during the growing season to develop anaerobic conditions in the upper part.” In other words, “muck” (the first seven inches of the soil layer in this case). The DEA states that an “onsite drainage system will be constructed to accommodate runoff generated by a 50-year storm for one hour.” I question whether this is sufficient. Hilo has recently experienced several 50-year storms, or greater, in recent years. As recently as March 2021, Hilo experienced a rainfall exceeding 3 inches in one hour. The drainage system should, at the very least, accommodate runoff from a 100-year rainfall event. Furthermore, given that more than 20,000 square feet is given over to a drainage easement, any discussion of drainage has to explain how this will be displaced and mitigated by the proposed construction. Padding As a last point, I would register my complaint about the evident padding in this document, which is over 600 pages long. Much of the material included in the appendix could have easily been omitted (for example, the list of residents on Kukuau Street dating back to 1977 from published city directories: why not just include pages from the phone books of that time?) The air quality report (50 pages) is for the entire state, not just the project area. The reports on contaminants runs from pdf page 195 to 454. The Hawaii County drinking water pamphlet and the complete description of the state CZM program are included as well. All this extraneous material, I suggest, is intended to overwhelm the reader and discourage careful consideration of the actual relevant content – or lack thereof, I would say. In conclusion, I believe that at the very least, a revised DEA should be submitted, addressing the serious drainage concerns, solid waste management, and traffic issues. I would also ask that the appendices be edited and the several hundred pages of material that does not directly address the issue at hand be eliminated. Yours truly, Patricia Tummons Patricia Tummons Environmental Risk Analysis LLC 905A Makahiki Way, Honolulu, Hawaii 96826 www.enviroriskhawaii.com August 3, 2022 Patricia Tummons 421 Kaanini Street Hilo HI 96720 Subject: Environmental Assessment for the Kaiaulu O Kapiolani Housing Development TMKs: (3) 2-4-025:048, :053, :080, Hilo, Hawaii Ms. Tummons, Thank you for your comments on the Draft Environmental Assessment document. Please see the below responses: No Biological Assessment Most of the area has been developed for some time. The instances of threatened or endangered species occurring at the site are low. The report includes information from USFWS on threatened and endangered species that may potentially be in the area. The project workers will be educated on identification and will stop work to determine the best course of action for completion. Mitigation measures are also provided in the report. Surface Water Drainage on site is being diverted to dry wells installed on the property. The drainage and dry wells are intended to prevent significant flooding and migration off property of site waters. Onsite and Offsite drainage were studied. Reports were provided to the Engineering Division for review and approval. The studies found that proposed culvert conditions would decrease adverse impacts or additional ponding. The installation of drywells would decrease runoff from the site compared to existing conditions. Parking The parking requirement from rezoning ordinance 21-17 is 1.5 stalls per unit (96 stalls). The project has planned 117 stalls for the property. There will be 21 more stalls than the referenced rezoning ordinance (1.82 per unit). Kupukupu Street Please see attached map. Historic Sites An Archeological Inventory Survey was performed in 2021. State Historic Preservation Office concurred with the Office of Housing and Community Developments determination of No Historic Properties Affected for the project area (please see attached letter). Should iwi or other artifacts be discovered, all work will stop and SHPO will be notified and consulted. Traffic The TIAR will be attached to the document. As there is no access road existing, observations for the right-turn in and right-turn out are not available. Future traffic load is predicted based on the existing roadways. Other Transportation Issues The following is noted on the traffic study: 3.2.2 Pedestrian Accessibility Sidewalks are provided along the following studied roadways in the vicinity of the Project: • Kapiolani Street – Sidewalks are provided along both sides of the roadway. • Kukuau Street – A sidewalk is provided along the eastbound direction of the roadway to the west of Kapiolani Street. • Hualalai Street – Sidewalks are provided along both sides of the roadway to the east of Kapiolani Street. The locations of existing pedestrian facilities are shown in Figure 3.1. 3.2.3 Bicycle Accessibility In the immediate vicinity of the Project, there are currently no bicycle facilities provided along the studied roadway. However, the Bike Plan Hawaii Master Plan, published in 2003 by HDOT, identifies bicycle facilities that are proposed for future implementation. Proposed facilities are assigned a Priority Level ranging from I to III, with Priority Level I planned for near-term completion and Priority Level III planned for long-term completion. An additional Priority Level IV is assigned for bicycle facilities that are contingent on roadway development. In the vicinity of the Project, the following bicycle facilities are identified along studied roadways in the master plan. • Signed Shared Roadway – Kapiolani Street (Priority Level II) • Bicycle Lane – Kukuau Street (Priority Level II) Confusing Number of Units The number of units is to be 64. Speculation re Sewage The wastewater system designed for the project will be reviewed by the Wastewater Department for compliance and contingencies will be incorporated into the planning. Ground-Truthing Discussion regarding schools in the vicinity of the site have been obtained through readily accessible public information sources. The report will be updated to remove the Pacific Academy of Music. Solid Waste Discussion regarding waste disposal was obtained through readily accessible public information sources. The report will be updated to current information. The Kaiaulu O Kapiolani project will provide a trash collection area and service. Health Care Discussion regarding health care facilities was obtained through readily accessible public information sources. The report will be updated to current information. Drainage Drainage on site is being diverted to dry wells installed on the property. The drainage and dry wells are intended to prevent significant flooding and migration off property of site waters. Onsite and Offsite drainage were studied. Reports were provided to the Engineering Division for review and approval. The studies found that proposed culvert conditions would decrease adverse impacts or additional ponding. The installation of drywells would decrease runoff from the site compared to existing conditions. Padding While the material may seem extraneous, it is provided in it’s entirety for transparency.

O Kapi'olani Housing Project. SHPD received the initial project submission on July 26, 2021. The submittal consisted of an archacological assessment titled, An Archaeological Assessment for a 0,.6447-acre Property in Kukiau 1' Ahupua'a, South Hilo Districr, Hawai 'i Island, Hawai'i TMK (3)2-4-025: *080 (Escott 2019a, revised March 2022) prepared on behalf of the Urban Housing Communities, LLC., a cultural impact assessment (Escott 2019) for parcel 080 and an archaeological summary letter report (Escott 2019b) that indicated the project area includes parcels 048, 053, and 080 (Submission No. 2021PR00880. 001). The submission indicated the landowner is Mr. Giampaolo Boschetti and that Urban Housing Communities, LLC, is managing the proposed project. On July 26, 2021, SHPD requested additional information, indicating that if federal funds were being used, our office looked forward to receiving a letter fron the appropriate agency initiating NHPA Section 106 consultation with the State Historic Preservation Officer (SHPO). In response, SHPD received a letter dated March 2, 2022, from the Office of Housing and Community Developinent (OHCD) indicating that the project was seeking funding from the U.S. Department of Urban Housing (HUD) and that OHCD is the County agency responsible for compliance with HRS 6E statutes and the Section 106 consultation. OHCD provided a project overview, identification of the HRS 6E and federal area of potential effect (APE), which are synonymous, previous archaeological studies and findings, and requested the SHPO 's concurrence with a finding of no historic properties affected pursuant to 36 CFR 800.4(d)(1) for the proposed undertaking, The SHPD received this letter on March 4, 2022, along with a letter dated February 9, 2022, from the archacological consultant (Glenn Escott) to the OHCD, summanizing the archacological studies undertaken and the Scction 106 consultation effort (Submission No. 2021PR00880. .003), OHCD indicates that the proposed project is the development of an affordable rental complex of 64-units, community center and 117-stall parking lot. The project consists of the construction of nine (9) residential units and will include grubbing, grading, and trenching for utility infrastructure. The project area and area of potential effect (APE) and project area includes the entirety of TMK: (3) 2-4- -025:048, 053, and 080. Ground disturbance consists of grubbing, grading, and trenching within the entire 5.0499-acre project area. Acrial photographs show the project area is mostly undeveloped land, Susan Kunz 05/11/2022 Page 2 SHPD records confirm that portions of the current project area/APE were included in an archaeological survey (AIS Nelson et a1. 2006) conducted by Rechtman Consulting, LLC for a previous waterline project. Nelson et al. (2006) identified a single historic property, a historic enclosure (Site 50-10-35- -25547) within TMK: (3) 2-4 -025:048. They indicated it was significant under HAR $13-284 -6 Criterion d, as having yielded information about historic animal husbandry features, that it was adequately documented during the AlS and, thus, they recommended no further archaeological work, SHPD concurred with the findings and recommendations and accepted the AlS report on September 28, 2006 (Log No. 2006.3275, Doc. No. 0609JT83) Scientific Consultant Services, Inc. (SCS) conducted the current AlS for the easement portion of the project area/APE [TMK: (3) 2-4-025:080]. Escott (2019a) indicates the AIS involved a 100% coverage pedestrian survey of the easement and that no historic properties were identified, thus the negative findings are presented in an archacological assessment (AA) report in accordance with HAR $13. -284-5(b)(5)(A) SHPD requested revisions via email [Susan Lebo (SHPD) to Glenn Escott (SCS)] for the AA (Escott 2019a) on March 20, 2022, On April 4, 2022, SHPD received from SCS the revised AA report (Escott, March 2022) and a letter dated March 24, 2022, summarizing the revisions (Submission No. 2021PR00880 007). On the same day SHPD also received a letter dated March 23, 2022, from OHCD requesting SHPD's concurtence with a determination of "'No Historic Properties Affected" pursuant to HAR 813- -284-7(a)(1), along with plans showing the limits of proposed disturbance, a current land use map (Submission No. 2021PR00880. 005), and a HRS 6E Submittal Form (Submission No. 2021PR00880 .006) The OHCD and SCS submissions indicate that no historic properties were identified during current AIS (Escott 2019; revised March 2022) conducted within TMK: (3) 2-4-025:080, and that the single historic property (Site 50- 10-35-25547) was identified previously within TMK: (3) 2-4-025:048. Additionally, Site 50- -10-35-25547 (historic enclosure) and that SHPD concurred that this site had been adequately documented. The OHCD and SCS submissions also indicate that nineteen (19) historic properties eligible for listing in the National Register of Historic Places (NRHP) were identified with a one-half mile radius of the current project area/APE. However, the project will have no direct or indirect (c.g., visual) impacts of these eligible historic properties. Based on the information provided, the SHPO concurs with the OHCD's determination of no historic properties affected for the proposed undertaking pursuant to 36 CFR 800.5(b). Additionally, SHPD concurs with OHCD's determination of "No historic properties affected pursuant to HAR $13- -275-7(a)(1). The NHPA Section 106 and the HRS 6E historic preservation review processes are concluded. The project initiation process may_proceed The OHCD is the office of record for this project. Please maintain a copy of this letter with your environmental review record for this undertaking. The revised AA report meets the minimum requirements of HAR $13-276-5. It is accepted.

METHODOLOGY 2.1 Study Methodology This study will address the following: • Assess existing traffic operating conditions at key intersections during the weekday morning (AM) and afternoon (PM) peak hours of traffic within the study area. • Traffic projections for Base Year 2021 (without the Project) including traffic generated by other known developments in the vicinity of the Project in addition to an ambient growth rate. These other known developments are projects that are currently under construction or known new/future developments that are anticipated to affect traffic demand and operations within the study area. • Trip generation and traffic assignment characteristics for the proposed Project. • Traffic projections for Future Year 2021 (with the Project), which includes Base Year traffic volumes in addition to traffic volumes generated by the Project. • Recommendations for Base Year as well as Future Year roadway improvements or other mitigative measures, as appropriate, to reduce or eliminate the adverse impacts resulting from traffic generated by known developments in the region or the Project. 2.2 Intersection Analysis Level of Service (LOS) is a qualitative measure used to describe the conditions of traffic flow at intersections, with values ranging from free-flow conditions at LOS A to congested conditions at LOS F. The Highway Capacity Manual (HCM), 6th Edition, dated 2016, includes methods for calculating volume to capacity ratios, delays, and corresponding Levels of Service that were utilized in this study. LOS definitions for signalized and unsignalized intersections are provided in Appendix B. Analyses for the study intersections were performed using the traffic analysis software Synchro, which is able to prepare reports based on the methodologies described in the HCM. These reports contain control delay results as based on intersection lane geometry, signal timing, and hourly traffic volumes. Based on the vehicular delay at each intersection, a LOS is assigned to each approach and intersection movement as a qualitative measure of performance. These results, as confirmed or refined by field observations, constitute the technical analysis that will form the basis of the recommendations outlined in this report. 5 3. EXISTING CONDITIONS 3.1 Roadway System The following are brief descriptions of the existing roadways in the vicinity of the Project. Kapiolani Street – is generally a north-south, two-way, two-lane, undivided County roadway in the vicinity of the Project. The roadway begins to the north at its T-intersection with Waianuenue Avenue and travels south before terminating at its intersection with Kawili Street and Warrior Avenue at Waiakea High School. Kapiolani Street provides access to residential and commercial areas as well as institutional uses, such as the Hawaii Police Department, Hilo Driver Licensing Station and the University of Hawaii at Hilo. In the vicinity of the Project, the roadway has a posted speed limit of 25 miles per hour (mph). Kukuau Street – is generally an east-west, two-way, two-lane, undivided County roadway in the vicinity of the Project. The roadway begins to the east at its intersection with Kilauea Avenue and travels to the west before terminating as a dead end just before Puainako Street. After Puainako Street, Kukuau Street continues a short distance through the existing Hilo Hillside development. Kukuau Street mainly provides access to residential and commercial areas in South Hilo. In the vicinity of the Project, the roadway has a posted speed limit of 25 mph. Hualalai Street – is generally an east-west, two-way, two-lane, undivided County roadway in the vicinity of the Project. The roadway begins to the east at its intersection with Kilauea Avenue and travels to the west before terminating at its intersection with Hale Nani Street, just west of Kapiolani Street. Hualalai Street provides access to St. Joseph School and residential and commercial areas. On-street parking is provided along the roadway east of Kapiloani Street. There is no posted speed limit along the roadway. However, there is a posted reverse turn warning sign with an advisory speed of 10 mph west of Kapiolani Street as Hualalai Street transitions into Hale Nani Street. Kupukupu Street – is general a north-south, two-way, two-lane, undivided Private roadway in the vicinity of the Project. The roadway provides access from Kukuau Street to five (5) existing residential buildings. Kupukupu Street is proposed as one of the accesses to the Project. There is no posted speed limit along the roadway. 3.2 Sustainable Transportation 3.2.1 Complete Streets While transportation planning has traditionally focused on automobile travel, recent “Complete Streets” policies also recognize the numerous benefits of encouraging the use of alternative modes of transportation. “Complete Streets” policies encourage the provision of equitable, accessible and safe transportation for all modes. Hawaii State Senate Bill 718 (2009) required that the Hawaii Department of Transportation (HDOT) and the County transportation departments: “…adopt a complete streets policy that seeks to reasonably accommodate convenient access and mobility for all users of the public highways within their respective jurisdictions…” 6 3.2.2 Pedestrian Accessibility Sidewalks are provided along the following studied roadways in the vicinity of the Project: • Kapiolani Street – Sidewalks are provided along both sides of the roadway. • Kukuau Street – A sidewalk is provided along the eastbound direction of the roadway to the west of Kapiolani Street. • Hualalai Street – Sidewalks are provided along both sides of the roadway to the east of Kapiolani Street. The locations of existing pedestrian facilities are shown in Figure 3.1. 3.2.3 Bicycle Accessibility In the immediate vicinity of the Project, there are currently no bicycle facilities provided along the studied roadway. However, the Bike Plan Hawaii Master Plan, published in 2003 by HDOT, identifies bicycle facilities that are proposed for future implementation. Proposed facilities are assigned a Priority Level ranging from I to III, with Priority Level I planned for near-term completion and Priority Level III planned for long-term completion. An additional Priority Level IV is assigned for bicycle facilities that are contingent on roadway development. In the vicinity of the Project, the following bicycle facilities are identified along studied roadways in the master plan. • Signed Shared Roadway – Kapiolani Street (Priority Level II) • Bicycle Lane – Kukuau Street (Priority Level II) The proposed bicycle facilities in the vicinity of the Project are shown in Figure 3.1. 3.2.4 Public Transit The County of Hawaii Mass Transit Agency (MTA) operates the Hele-On Bus, which serves the most populated areas of the island. Several routes provide service within Hilo and to/from other regions of the island, with service generally along Kilauea Avenue in the vicinity of the Project. The following routes provide service along Kilauea Avenue: • Intra-Hilo Waiakea-Uka • Intra-Hilo Keaukaha • Intra-Hilo Kaumana • Hilo-Volcano-Kau • Hilo-Pahoa-Pohoiki • Hilo-Honokaa • Hilo-Kailua Kona The Intra-Hilo Waiakea-Uka and the Intra-Hilo Kaumana routes also provide service in the immediate Project vicinity along Kapiolani Street and Hualalai Street. The existing Hele-On Bus routes are shown in Figure 3.1. PON A H A W AI S T.KINOOLE ST . KUK U A U S T.KAPIOLAN I ST .ULULANI ST .HUALALAI ST.HOLO M A LI A S T.IPUKA S T.

Based on the proximity to the proposed Project site, the following intersections were studied in the existing conditions scenario.  [1] Kukuau Street/Kupukupu Street (unsignalized)  [2] Kapiolani Street/Kukuau Street (unsignalized)  [3] Kapiolani Street/Hualalai Street (unsignalized) Based on the count data, it was determined that the AM peak hour of traffic occurs between 7:00 AM and 8:00 AM and the PM peak hour of traffic occurs between 3:45 PM and 4:45 PM. The turning movement count data is included in Appendix A. 3.4 Existing Traffic Conditions Observations and Analysis The observations and analysis described below are based on prevailing observations during the time at which the data was collected. Hereinafter, observations that are expressed as ongoing and current shall represent the conditions that prevailed at the time at which the data was collected. 3.4.1 Existing Intersection Analysis Traffic volumes in the study area were generally light with the studied roadways primarily serving local traffic. All intersections were observed to operate adequately with no major delays to any movements. The study intersections operate satisfactorily during both peak hours of traffic with all movements operating at LOS C or better. Figure 3.2 illustrates the existing lane configurations, volumes and LOS for the study intersection movements. Table 3.1 summarizes the existing LOS at the study intersections.

Inclusion of other approved or proposed developments is discussed in the following sections. 4.1 Defacto Growth Rate The Hawaii Department of Transportation (HDOT) Travel Demand Forecasting Model (TDFM) provides traffic projections across the island of Hawaii up to year 2035. The forecasting model uses population forecasts from the Hawaii County General Plan to distribute households and vehicular trips across predetermined Traffic Analysis Zones (TAZs) based upon existing TAZ household distributions. Based on projections in the TDFM, annual growth rates of 1.4%, 1.3%, and 1.1% were applied along Kuakini Street, Kukuau Street and Hualalai Street, respectively, to determine Base Year 2021 conditions. Because the TDFM does not take into account actual planned or proposed developments, traffic forecasts for known developments in the South Hilo region were added to projections as described in Section 4.2 below. 4.2 Traffic Forecasts for Known Developments Traffic projections from all known background projects in the vicinity of the Project at the time of this study were added to the existing roadway network to account for additional growth in the study area. Trips from the following known developments were added to the existing traffic data to reflect Base Year 2021 conditions. The completion dates for each of the background developments were based on the best available information at the time this report. Where build- out information was not available, completion dates were estimated based on anticipated approval and construction schedules. 1. Abundant Life Grocery – This project is located at the northwest corner of the Kinoole Street/Mamo Street intersection.

Preconstruction of Phase 1A and 1B had begun at the time of data collection, and completion is anticipated to occur by 2021 at the earliest. 4.2.1 Trip Generation The Institute of Transportation Engineers (ITE) publishes a book based on empirical data compiled from a body of more than 4,250 trip generation studies submitted by public agencies, developers, consulting firms and associations. This publication, titled Trip Generation, 10th Edition, provides trip rates and/or formulae based on graphs that correlate vehicular trips with independent variables. The independent variables can range from Dwelling Units (DU) for single-family detached homes to Gross Floor Area (GFA) for commercial or office development. Trips for the above background projects were manually generated using trip generation rates contained in the Trip Generation, 10th Edition as described above. See Table 4.1 for applied trip generation volumes per project. Note that not all volumes generated by the background projects are anticipated to pass through the study area. Figure 4.1 shows the locations of the background developments. 13 Table 4.1: Background Development Trip Generation Background Development AM Peak Hour PM Peak Hour Enter Exit Total Enter Exit Total Abundant Life Grocery (7,500 SF) 17 12 29 58 55 113 Panda Express (1,860 SF) 3 1 4 15 12 27 Ponahawai Medical Office Building (7,000 SF) 16 5 21 7 19 26 Hawaii Vision Specialists (16,000 SF) 34 10 44 16 41 57 Lanakila Housing Redevelopment (16 DU) 2 7 9 8 4 12 Hale Kupuna Housing (36 DU) 4 15 19 15 9 24 Bank of Hawaii (7,500 SF) 42 30 72 77 77 154 Mohouli Senior Housing Phase 3 (92 DU) 7 12 19 14 11 25 Hawaii Island Veterans Housing (92 DU) 10 35 45 35 20 55 Hilo Hillside Phase 2 (56 DU) 11 34 45 37 22 59 Puainako Heights Phase 1 (49 DU) 10 30 40 33 19 52 Total 156 191 347 315 289 604 Notes: 1.

FUTURE YEAR 2021 5.1 Background The Project proposes a new residential development that will consist of 64 affordable multi- family units with 145 parking stalls located on an approximately 5-acre site. The Project site is bordered by Kukuau Street to the north, Kapiolani Street to the east and Hualalai Street to the south. Access to the Project Site will be provided along Kapiolani Street and Kukuau Street via Kupukupu Street. Completion of the Project is anticipated in 2021. 5.2 Travel Demand Estimations 5.2.1 Trip Generation The Institute of Transportation Engineers (ITE) publishes a book based on empirical data compiled from a body of more than 4,250 trip generation studies submitted by public agencies, developers, consulting firms, and associations. This publication, titled Trip Generation Manual, 10th Edition, provides trip rates and/or formulae based on graphs that correlate vehicular trips with independent variables. The independent variables can range from Dwelling Units (DU) for single-family detached homes to Square Feet Gross Floor Area (SF GFA) for commercial or office development. These trip rates/formulae and their associated directional distributions were used to estimate the increase in the number of vehicular trips generated by the proposed Project. See Tables 5.1 and 5.2 for Trip Generation formulae and projections for the Project. 5.2.2 Trip Distribution and Assignment Trips generated by the Project were assigned throughout the study area generally based upon existing travel patterns and the Hawaii Department of Transportation (HDOT) Travel Demand Forecasting Model (TDFM). The traffic generated by the Project was added to the forecast Base Year traffic volumes to constitute the traffic volumes for Future Year conditions with the Project.

The projected growth in traffic is expected along major roadways in the study area. Figure 5.1 illustrates the Future Year 2021 Project-generated trip distribution. 5.3.1 Future Year 2021 with Project Intersection Analysis It is anticipated that by Future Year 2021 with the Project, traffic will increase slightly compared to Base Year 2021 conditions without the Project due to the projected growth along Kapiolani Street and Kukuau Street. Despite the added traffic, all movements will continue to operate similar to Base Year 2021 conditions at LOS C or better during the AM peak hour of traffic and LOS D or better during the PM peak hour. Both Project access intersections are anticipated to operate with all movements at LOS B or better during both peak hours. Figure 5.2 illustrates the Future Year 2021 with Project forecast traffic volumes and LOS for the study intersection movements. Table 5.3 summarizes the Future Year 2021 with Project LOS at the study intersections compared to Base Year 2021 without Project. LOS worksheets are provided in Appendix C.

CONCLUSIONS The Project proposes a new residential development that will consist of 64 affordable multi- family units with 145 parking stalls located on an approximately 5-acre site. The Project site is bordered by Kukuau Street to the north, Kapiolani Street to the east and Hualalai Street to the south. Access to the Project Site will be provided along Kapiolani Street and Kukuau Street via Kupukupu Street. Completion of the Project is anticipated in 2021. At full buildout, the Project is projected to generate a total of 32(40) net external trips during the AM(PM) peak hours of traffic. 6.1 Existing Conditions Traffic volumes in the study area were generally light with the studied roadways serving local traffic only. All intersections were observed to operate adequately with no major delays to any movements. The study intersections operate satisfactorily during both peak hours of traffic with all movements operating at LOS C or better. 6.2 Base Year 2021 Traffic projections in the study area were based upon known developments in the region along with an ambient growth rate applied to nearby roadways. The majority of movements at the study intersections are anticipated to continue operating similar to existing conditions by Base Year 2021. Although some of the minor street movements are expected to experience longer delays, all minor street movements are anticipated to operate at LOS C or better during the AM peak hour of traffic and LOS D or better during the PM peak hour. All major street movements are anticipated to continue operating at LOS A during both peak hours. 6.3 Future Year 2021 with Project At full buildout, the Project is projected to generate a total of 32(40) net external trips during the AM(PM) peak hours of traffic. Traffic from the Project is expected to generate growth along major roadways in the study area. It is anticipated that by Future Year 2021 with the Project, traffic will increase slightly compared to Base Year 2021 conditions without the Project due to the projected growth along Kapiolani Street and Kukuau Street. Despite the added traffic, all movements will continue to operate similar to Base Year 2021 conditions at LOS C or better during the AM peak hour of traffic and LOS D or better during the PM peak hour. Both Project access intersections are anticipated to operate with all movements at LOS B or better during both peak hours. 24 7. REFERENCES 1.

Level of Service is a measure of the acceptability of delay values to motorists at a given intersection. The criteria are given in the table below. Level-of Service Criteria for Signalized Intersections Control Delay per Level of Service Vehicle (sec./veh.) A < 10.0 B >10.0 and ≤ 20.0 C >20.0 and ≤ 35.0 D >35.0 and ≤ 55.0 E >55.0 and ≤ 80.0 F > 80.0 Delay is a complex measure, and is dependent on a number of variables, including the quality of progression, the cycle length, the green ratio, and the v/c ratio for the lane group or approach in question. VEHICULAR LEVEL OF SERVICE CRITERIA FOR UNSIGNALIZED INTERSECTIONS (HCM 6th Edition) The level of service criteria for vehicles at unsignalized intersections is defined as the average control delay, in seconds per vehicle. LOS delay threshold values are lower for two-way stop-controlled (TWSC) and all-way stop- controlled (AWSC) intersections than those of signalized intersections. This is because more vehicles pass through signalized intersections, and therefore, drivers expect and tolerate greater delays. While the criteria for level of service for TWSC and AWSC intersections are the same, procedures to calculate the average total delay may differ. Level of Service Criteria for Two-Way Stop-Controlled Intersections Level of Service Average Control Delay (sec/veh) A ≤ 10 B >10 and ≤15 C >15 and ≤25 D >25 and ≤35 E >35 and ≤50 F > 50 APPENDIX C LEVEL OF SERVICE CALCULATIONS APPENDIX C LEVEL OF SERVICE CALCULATIONS • Existing AM Peak HCM 6th TWSC Kaiaulu O Kapiolani Apartments 1: Kupukupu Street & Kukuau Street 06/12/2019 Z:\2019\19-524 Kaiaulu O Kapiolani\Existing\Existing AM.syn Synchro 10 Report Austin, Tsutsumi & Associates Page 1 Intersection Int Delay, s/veh 0 Movement EBT EBR WBL WBT NBL NBR Lane Configurations Traffic Vol, veh/h 152 0 0 64 0 1 Future Vol, veh/h 152 0 0 64 0 1 Conflicting Peds, #/hr 0 77000 Sign Control Free Free Free Free Stop Stop RT Channelized -
