It is further to certify that the attached technical data supports the fact that proposed work in the subject parcel will not impact the 100 -year flood elevations, floodway elevations, or floodway widths on Waiaha Drainageway at published sections in the Flood Insurance Study for Waiawa watershed dated Sept. 29, 2017 and will not impact the 100 -year flood elevations, floodway elevations, or floodway widths at unpublished cross-sections in the vicinity of the proposed work. Date: October 23, 2021 2 Green 'Aina Planning & Engineering No Rise Report Bolton Access Road Executive Summary For the Kona Aerials facility, there is no grading work, and no structures are proposed within the floodway. The work consists only of surface improvements to the existing driveway that crosses the flood channel; therefore, it will have no impact upstream or downstream in a flood event. Since no grading or net elevation changes are proposed. Green 'Rina has concluded that the work will have no impact on any flood event and certifies that there will be "No Rise". Research & Determination The State of Hawai'i Flood Hazard Assessment Report (Exhibit A) shows that the subject property is situated in an AEF Zone, defined as: "Floodway areas in Zone AE. The floodway is the channel of stream plus any adjacent floodplain areas that must be kept free of encroachment so that the 1% annual chance flood can be carried without increasing the BFE." Green 'Rina has determined that the proposed improvements will have no impact on Base Flood Elevations or properties in the vicinity of the work. 3 Green 'Aina Planning & Engineering No Rise Report Bolton Access Road Exhibit A E r o v.NE XS '- r"p 0, zI E XS 'AP'�# � ,, ZONE •� E i'6...uS / ONE X r Mw ZONE ZOf{l.

SFHAs include Zone A, AE, AH, A0, V, and VE. The Base Flood Elevation (BFE) is the water surface elevation of the 1% annual chance flood. Mandatory flood insurance purchase applies in these zones: Zone A: No BFE determined. Zone AE: BFE determined. Zone AH: Flood depths of 1 to 3 feet (usually areas of ponding); BFE determined. depths opl to d 3 feet (usually sheet flow on Zone Flterrain); to terrain depths determined. average Zone V: Coastal flood zone with velocity hazard (wave action); no BFE determined. ••Zone VE: Coastal flood zone with velocity hazard (wave action); BFE determined. Zone AEF: Floodway areas in Zone AE. The floodway is the channel of stream plus any adjacent floodplain areas that must be kept free of encroachment so that the 1% annual chance flood can be carried without increasing the BFE. NON -SPECIAL FLOOD HAZARD AREA - An area in a low -to -moderate risk flood zon . No mandatory flood insurance purchase requirements apply, but cover ge is available in participating communities. Zone XS (X shaded): Areas of 0.2% annual chance flood; areas of 1% annual chance flood with average depths of less than 1 foot or with drainage areas less than 1 square mile; and areas protected by levees from 1%annual chance flood.
