Sincerely, The Guidester Team 2 www.Guidester.com Overview & Brief History Kauai is Hawaii’s fourth largest island and is sometimes called the “Garden Isle,” which is an entirely accurate description. The oldest and northernmost island in the Hawaiian chain is draped in emerald valleys, sharp mountain spires and jagged cliffs, aged by time and the elements. Centuries of growth have formed tropical rainforests, forking rivers and cascading waterfalls. Some parts of Kauai are only accessible by sea or air, revealing views beyond your imagination. Kauai’s distant past is filled with legends, the most well known tells of the Menehune, a mythical race of small people talented in construction and engineering who created Kauai’s aqueducts and fishponds, often in a single night. They were believed to have lived in the woods and were shunned by Hawaiians. Today, you can still see their work at Hawaiian fishponds like Alekoko, known as Menehune Fishpond, near Lihue. In 1778, British explorer Captain James Cook landed in Kauai’s Waimea Bay for the first time. Cook’s discovery of what he called the “Sandwich Isles,” named after the Earl of Sandwich, introduced Hawaii to the world. During this era of western discovery, King Kamehameha I was attempting to unify the Hawaiian Islands under his rule. Kauai and the small neighboring island of Niihau were the only islands to deter his efforts. Eventually, Kauai’s King Kaumualii decided to peacefully unite with Kamehameha and join the rest of the Kingdom of Hawaii. 3 www.Guidester.com HOTEL Kauai Marriott Resort 3610 Rice Street Lihue, Hawaii 96766 +1-808-245-5050 TABLE OF CONTENTS 6 Things To See & Do 11 Dining 16 Shopping 18 Nightlife & Entertainment 21 Maps 31 !

There are a number ofland use decisions and developments that can greatly affect the safety of the airport zones and flight patterns. Some of these include reflective surfaces Qike building facades and solar panels), zip lines, communications towers, wind turbines, other structure nearing 200 feet or higher, and wildlife habitats. As directed by the Airport Division, we should be looking for any ofthe above mentioned hazards that are proposed within 5 miles of an airport. Our GIS staffwill be adding a layer into the GIS system noting this 5 mile radius. lf we receive an application with a questionable hazard, we should report it to the HOOT Airport Division and require the applicant to provide a letter of no effect or approval with conditions from that division. Reflective surfaces and tower like structures are relatively easy to identi1Y, but wildlife habitats may DOt be as obvious.

    State of Hawaii Department of Transportation Small HUB Primary Airports – Ellison Onizuka Kona International Airport At Keahole, Hilo International Airport And Lihue Airport Disadvantaged Business Enterprise FFY 2021 – 2023 Proposed Goal & Methodology February 2020 (Draft) Introduction The Hawaii Department of Transportation hereby submits its proposed annual, overall Disadvantaged Business Enterprise goals for Ellison Onizuka Kona International Airport at Keahole (“Kona International Airport”), Hilo International Airport and Lihue Airport for federal fiscal years 2021 through 2023 to the Federal Aviation Administration pursuant to 49 CFR Part 26, section 26.45. HDOT uses FAA funds for contracts at Kona International Airport, Hilo International Airport and Lihue Airport; therefore, the overall DBE goal pertains to those activities. From Federal Fiscal Year 2018 through Federal Fiscal Year 2020, HDOT projected DBE goals of 22.00% for Kona International Airport, 21.00% for Hilo International Airport, and 29.00% for Lihue Airport. Based on the results of a DBE Availability and Disparity Study prepared in 2019 by Keen Independent Research (Keen Independent), HDOT proposes a 12.66% DBE goal for Kona International Airport; a 15.64% DBE goal for Hilo International Airport; and an 8.84% DBE goal for Lihue Airport for FFYs 2021 through 2023 for FAA-funded contracts. The 2019 Availability and Disparity Study report provided information to HDOT as it considered (1) its overall DBE goals for FFY 2021 through FFY 2023 for FAA-funded contracts and (2) its projection of the portion of its overall DBE goal to be achieved through neutral means. HDOT estimates all of the overall DBE goal for each airport can be achieved through race- and gender- neutral participation on HDOT FAA-assisted projects at small hub airports.
