Hurricane Iniki Make a Plan Now in September 1992 (Photo: FEMA) Below: Plywood Spears a Palm Tree During Hurricane Andrew in Know Your Hazards August 1992 President’s Message Summer is just around the corner. Kauai is expecting an increase of visitors over 2014. What that means is Nihilani will also experience an increase in vacation renters. Our goal, as well for Owners who operate vacation rentals, is for those visitors to enjoy their trip to Paradise. One of the key objectives for Nihilani is to prevent problems before they occur. In order to achieve that objective, the Board has directed our Site Managers to be proactive with visitors. When the Site Manager(s) are at work and they see people they do not know, they will go over to them and introduce themselves. The Manager will ask if they have had a chance to read the “Short List” of rules. If they do not have a copy, the Manager will provide one. They will point out to them the key rules which visitors often violate. The Managers will also tell the visitor(s), if they have any questions to please contact them. This approach will ensure that the first (and hopefully the last) contact with the Site Manager is a positive one. What the Board expects Owners, who rent their units out for vacation rentals, is to make sure each renter gets a copy of the “Short List” of rules and ask each renter to read them before they arrive. The Board also expects that you to work with your property manager to ensure they are not telling the renters anything that conflicts with the rules. As you know, we have had problems with property managers telling renters they can park anywhere. By you doing these two things, it will help ensure the renters will not violate any of the rules. Parking in” Guest Parking” stalls and excess noise at the pool seem to be the most common rule violations. By everyone working together, the Board hopes that the vacation renters stay will be positive and that our Site Manager’s time will be spent on the maintenance of the property. The Site Managers will issue warnings and fines to Owners whose renters continue to violate the rules. Disaster Preparedness Last year, Kauai was threaten with two different hurricanes. That was our first experience with a potential disaster since Nihilani was built. There have been tsunami warnings, but they do not threaten the Princeville area since we are on a cliff; and there were excessive rains that caused the dam to break on Mile Marker 22 a few years back washing out a portion of Kuhio Highway. The Board has developed the attached plan to help Owners be prepared in case a natural disaster hits. The recommendations included in this enclosed document are suggestions only and it is up to each Owner how prepared they want to be. Owners may want to share this document with their long term renters. For Owners who do vacation rentals, you may want to keep a copy in your unit and ensure that your renters know where it is. Preparation is key and each Owner will have to figure out how that will be achieved.

  • Nearly 20 Years Since Hurricane Iniki
    Nearly 20 Years Since Hurricane Iniki by Steven Businger and Tom Schroeder [email protected], [email protected] Professors of Meteorology at the University of Hawaii at Manoa On September 11, 1992 hurricane Iniki scored a direct hit on the island of Kauai. Over a period of only three hours, the category-3 hurricane caused damage equivalent to the total general fund budget of the state of Hawaii at that time and wiped out the historical profits of the Hawaii homeowners insurance industry. Economic impacts were felt even a decade after the event. As the 20th anniversary of Iniki nears (2012) it is appropriate that we take stock of where Hawaii stands. We are fortunate in Hawaii that our island chain presents a small target for relatively rare central Pacific hurricanes. Although Kauai has been impacted by three hurricanes since the mid-1950s (Dot in 1959, Iwa in 1982, and the category- 3 Iniki on this day in 1992), it has been over a century since a major hurricane has struck the Island of Hawaii and Maui. On August 9, 1871 a major hurricane struck both the Island of Hawaii and Maui, leaving tornado-like destruction in its wake. This event was well documented in the many newspapers of the time, which allowed us to determine that the hurricane was at least a category-3 storm. There is much the public can do to mitigate the damage in advance of hurricanes (hurricane clips to keep the roof from blowing off, and storm shutters to protect windows, etc.). Insurance risk models begin projecting property losses as winds hit 40 mph.

  • Status and Population Trends of Hawaii's Native
    Wilson Bull., 105(l), 1993, pp. 142-158 STATUS AND POPULATION TRENDS OF HAWAIIS’ NATIVE WATERBIRDS, 1977-1987 ANDREW ENGILIS, JR. ’ AND THANE K. PRATT* ABSTRACT.- Status and population trends of Hawaiis’ native waterbirds were examined from 1977 through 1987. Waterbird population fluctuations were analyzed in relation to rainfall and land use dynamics. Numbers of Hawaiian Duck (Koloa) (Anus wyvilliana) and Hawaiian Common Moorhen (Gallinula chloropussandvicensis) appeared stable over time; however, surveys were limited. Increase in Black-crowned Night-Heron (Nycticoruxnyctic- orux) abundance appeared linked to expansion of aquaculture, particularly on Oahu, and not to climatic events. Annual rainfall patterns help explain and predict population fluc- tuations and anomalous distribution patterns involving Hawaiian American Coots (Fulica americana alai), moorhens, and Hawaiian Black-necked Stilts (Himantopus mexicanus knudseni).Coot, stilt, and moorhen populations fluctuated with climatic events, and intra- island dispersal to ephemeral wetlands occurred. Stilts exhibited regular inter-island migra- tory behavior, but coots dispersed in relation to major rainfall events. Seasonal fluctuation recorded for coots by past observers is the result of survey techniques not accounting for seasonal dispersal patterns. Received10 Jan. 1992, accepted28 Sept. 1992. The Hawaiian Islands probably have lost, as a result of human activity, more species of birds than any other locality in the world. Extinctions during the first 2000 years of human habitation (Olson and James 1982a) resulted in the loss of 50% of native avian species. Unfortunately this process has accelerated during the past 200 years, and of the remaining 40 endemic species, 70% currently are endangered. Recognizing these trends, resource managers and conservation organizations have attempted to develop and implement essential habitat inventories and management programs.

  • REEF RUNWAY WAVE PROTECTIVE STRUCTURE, HONOLULU INTERNATIONAL AIRPORT, OAHU, HAWAII, STABILITY PERFORMANCE EVALUATION Robert S
    CHAPTER ONE HUNDRED EIGHTY ONE REEF RUNWAY WAVE PROTECTIVE STRUCTURE, HONOLULU INTERNATIONAL AIRPORT, OAHU, HAWAII, STABILITY PERFORMANCE EVALUATION Robert S. Chun*, Edward K. Noda", Elaine E. Tamaye" Abstract An inspection survey of the Reef Runway Wave Protective Structure at the Honolulu International Airport was accomplished in 1982 to access the performance of the dolos and rock armored structure to date. The inspection showed the structure to be performing adequately considering that the design wave conditions were experienced. Introduction In 1972, the State of Hawaii began construction of an offshore runway at the Honolulu International Airport. This, project, called the Reef Runway, was undertaken to alleviate aircraft noise and safety concerns over metropolitan Honolulu, provide more flexibility for aircraft takeoff and landings, and increase airfield capacity. The project encompasses dredged fill on 1,240 acres of offshore coral reef with a 16,100 foot-long wave protective structure, a 12,000 foot-long by 200 foot-wide runway, 1,350 feet of apron and clear zone bordering the runway, and taxi ways and service roads which connect the runway to shore. The protective structure is of rubblemound construction and armored with 4 and 6 ton dolos concrete units along the deepwater sections. Figure 1 shows a General Plan view of the Reef Runway at the Honolulu International Airport. The project was the subject of environmental controversy, and was held up for approximately one year due to various court actions. Finally, the U.S. Supreme Court, allowed the project to proceed after declining to hear appeals from environmental groups on the adequacy of the Environmental Impact Statement.
