CALL TO ORDER
PRESENTATION
National Park Service
Kaloko-Honokohau National Historical Park is an area of cultural and natural
significance in North Kona comprising the makai portions of the Kohanaiki,
Kaloko, Honokohau and Kealakehe ahupuaa. The park contains two ancient
Hawaiian fishponds, wetlands, more than 185 anchialine pools, coral reefs and
archeological sites. In this dry area, the park’s cultural and biological resources
are fed by, and depend on, the continued flow of fresh, clean water from the
Keauhou Aquifer. Beginning in the late 1960s, Hawaiians organized to protect
the area that now comprises the park from development. Because of the efforts
of the Hawaiian community and the significance of the area, in 1978, Congress
established Kaloko-Honokohau National Historical Park to preserve, interpret and
perpetuate traditional Native Hawaiian activities and culture. In this talk we will
discuss the establishment of the park, the biological and cultural resource of the
park, activities currently taking place in the park and external threats to park’s
biological and cultural resources.
