Table 3 below provides a list of proposed mitigation actions for Rockfall Location 1 and Rockfall Location 2, and indicates whether the actions will be monitored on an on-call or an on-site basis. Table 3. Proposed Mitigation Measures that Require Archaeological Monitoring. Estimated On-site or On-Call Proposed Mitigation Action Excavation Depth Monitoring Necessary (Range in cmbs) Rockfall Site 1 (Wailua River) Rock bolting and shotcrete of four boulders NA On-call Demolition and removal of one boulder NA On-call In situ cable lashing of one boulder NA On-call Ring netting and cable lashing of two NA On-call boulders Installation of localized netting system, 60 by 30 feet with rock anchors to secure a NA On-call large outcrop Rock scaling to remove all loose surface NA On-site rocks within the limits of the project area Rockfall Location 2 (Fern Grotto) Pulling a boulder (3.0 by 2.0 by 1.0 foot in NA On-call size) away from existing rock fence Installation of a degradable erosion mat on slope abutting trail; involves vegetation clearing, trenching to key in the mat, 0.30-0.60 On-site removal of approximately 4.0 cubic yards of loose soil from bottom of the slope, and hydromulching Figure 6 presents a Google Earth image showing Rockfall Location 1 and the associated staging area in relation to the location of Poli‘ahu Heiau. Figure 7 shows Rockfall Location 2 in relation to the boat dock by the Fern Grotto. There is no staging area for Rockfall Location 2. With the exception of trenches for the upper and lower erosion mats at Rockfall Location 2 (Fern Grotto), ground-disturbing activities which will range from 0.30 to 0.60 cm deep (1 to 2 ft), most of the mitigation measures will not entail ground disturbing activities that penetrate more than 10 to 15 cmbs. Therefore on-call monitoring is recommended for most of the mitigation measures, and on-site monitoring is recommended for excavation of trenches for the degradable erosion mats at Rockfall Site Location 2 (Fern Grotto), and the rock scaling at Rockfall Location 1. 24 TREATMENT OF CULTURAL MATERIALS If any subsurface archaeological materials and/or features are encountered during archaeological monitoring of ground-disturbing activities, work will be stopped immediately in the area of the cultural find, and the monitoring archaeologist will investigate the nature of the discovery. If an intact cultural layer, living surface, structural components (e.g., foundations), archaeological sub-surface features (e.g., hearths, pits, postmolds, etc.), artifacts, charcoal, or midden deposits/trash pits are encountered, SHPD will be contacted and consulted on the development of an appropriate mitigation strategy. It is likely the following actions will be taken: Selected, sorted charcoal samples from discrete fire features will be collected for the possibility of radiocarbon analysis (particularly if the charcoal appears in a prehistoric context). Bulk samples of midden material will be collected, such as shell, bones, etc. All prehistoric artifacts will be collected All historic artifacts will be collected unless large trash or refuse pits are encountered, in which case a representative sample of diagnostic artifacts will be collected Standard documentation will be carried out, including scale maps, profiles, photographs, detailed soil and provenience descriptions, and interpretation Photographs of excavations will be included in the monitoring report even if no historically significant sites are documented during the monitoring field work TREATMENT OF HUMAN REMAINS If human remains are identified, work will immediately stop in that locale, and SHPD/DLNR will be notified immediately of the find. No further work will take place in that locale—including screening of back dirt, cleaning and/or excavation of the burial area, or exploratory work of any kind—unless explicitly requested by the SHPD. Any human skeletal remains identified during monitoring shall be treated as an inadvertent discovery and be dealt with in accordance with HAR § 13-300-40. SHPD/DLNR, in consultation with the landowner and the Kaua‘i Island Burial Council (KIBC), will determine whether to preserve in place or relocate. If SHPD makes a determination for removal of the human remains, the consulting archaeologist will remove and treat the human remains in accordance with HAR § 13-300-40. HALTING OF EXCAVATION ACTIVITY The monitoring archaeologist has the authority to halt construction in the vicinity of a cultural find, so that the provisions of this AMP can be carried out. The consulting archaeological firm will make it clear to the construction personnel that the archaeologist has the authority to halt work when it is deemed appropriate. PRE-CONSTRUCTION CONFERENCE Before works begins on the project, the on-site archaeologist will explain to the rockfall mitigation construction crew what kinds of sites may be encountered and the procedures to follow if archaeological finds are encounterd, as well as the role of the archaeological monitor. At this time it will be made clear that the archaeological monitor must be on-site for specific ground-disturbing activities (see Table 2), and that the archaeologist has the authority to stop work immediately, if necessary and appropriate. 25 LABORATORY WORK Artifacts will be catalogued and analyzed, along with any samples of midden materials that have been collected. Charcoal and other datable materials will be submitted for dating analysis, provided samples were collected in situ from prehistoric contexts that show no signs of intermixing with historic materials; e.g., charcoal obtained from distinct fire features in solely pre- contact deposits. REPORT PREPARATION The archaeological monitor will compile daily monitoring logs. These logs will minimally include a description of daily activities, recorded sites and/or features, personnel on-site, problems encountered, and corrective action taken. Monthly reports will be filed with the SHPD detailing any new sites or features identified within the project area boundaries, if necessary and appropriate. Following completion of fieldwork, an end of field report and a draft archaeological monitoring report will be prepared and submitted to SHPD/DLNR for review. The consulting archaeological firm will submit a final archaeological monitoring report after receiving any comments on the draft report. Should burials and/or human remains be identified, other letters, memos, and/or reports may be requested by the SHPD, and will be provided in accordance with applicable statutes and regulations, and as contractual obligations permit. COLLECTIONS ARCHIVING Archaeological materials encountered during monitoring will be turned over to the Division of State Parks, Department of Land and Natural Resources at the end of the project. 26 REFERENCES Bates, G.W. 1854 Sandwich Island Notes by a Haole.

  • Statewide Comprehensive Outdoor Recreation Plan 2015
    STATEWIDE COMPREHENSIVE OUTDOOR RECREATION PLAN 2015 Department of Land & Natural Resources ii Hawai‘i Statewide Comprehensive Outdoor Recreation Plan 2015 Update PREFACE The Hawai‘i State Comprehensive Outdoor Recreation Plan (SCORP) 2015 Update is prepared in conformance with a basic requirement to qualify for continuous receipt of federal grants for outdoor recreation projects under the Land and Water Conservation Fund (LWCF) Act, Public Law 88-758, as amended. Through this program, the State of Hawai‘i and its four counties have received more than $38 million in federal grants since inception of the program in 1964. The Department of Land and Natural Resources has the authority to represent and act for the State in dealing with the Secretary of the Interior for purposes of the LWCF Act of 1965, as amended, and has taken the lead in preparing this SCORP document with the participation of other state, federal, and county agencies, and members of the public. The SCORP represents a balanced program of acquiring, developing, conserving, using, and managing Hawai‘i’s recreation resources. This document employs Hawaiian words in lieu of English in those instances where the Hawaiian words are the predominant vernacular or when there is no English substitute. Upon a Hawaiian word’s first appearance in this plan, an explanation is provided. Every effort was made to correctly spell Hawaiian words and place names. As such, two diacritical marks, ‘okina (a glottal stop) and kahakō (macron) are used throughout this plan. The primary references for Hawaiian place names in this plan are the book Place Names of Hawai‘i (Pukui, 1974) and the Hawai‘i Board on Geographic Names (State of Hawai‘i Office of Planning, 2014).

  • 7. Affected Environment
    DRAFT ENVIRONMENTAL IMPACT STATEMENT/DRAFT MANAGEMENT PLAN 7. Affected Environment This section describes the affected environment across Hawai‘i in general, followed by a detailed description of the affected environment at specific locations proposed for incorporation into the sanctuary. The region of interest (ROI) or area of potential affect includes all lands and waters within and adjacent to the sanctuary in the populated Hawaiian Islands. There are currently sanctuary areas that border Hawai‘i, Kaho‘olawe, Maui, Lāna‘i, Moloka‘i, O‘ahu, and Kaua‘i. The sanctuary is proposing boundary changes on the north shores of O‘ahu and Kaua‘i, as well as the inclusion of new sanctuary boundary around Ni‘ihau. 7.1. Biophysical Environment 7.1.1. Habitats The current and proposed sanctuary boundaries include a wide range of sub-tropical marine habitat types including coastal and shoreline areas, estuaries, seagrass, sandy, hard and rubble habitat, coral reefs, and deep ocean. These habitats support diverse marine species, which are presented in more detail in the next section. This section provides an overview of the primary habitat types within the current and proposed sanctuary boundaries. The primary threats to habitats are discussed in Section 6.1.4., such as coral bleaching, coral disease, vessel grounding, and pollution. For the populated Hawaiian Islands, NOAA mapped 32 distinct habitat types (i.e., 4 major and 14 detailed geomorphological structure classes; 7 major and 3 detailed biological cover types) within 13 nearshore zones using satellite imagery (Battista et al. 2007).

Social and Economic Environment 5.1 Cultural Resources 5.1.1 Introduction Archaeological and other cultural resources are important components of our Nation’s heritage. The Service is committed to protecting valuable evidence of plant, animal, and human interactions with each other and the landscape over time. These may include previously recorded or yet undocumented historic, cultural, archaeological, and paleontological resources as well as traditional cultural properties and the historic built environment. Protection of cultural resources is legally mandated under numerous Federal laws and regulations. Foremost among these are the National Historic Preservation Act (NHPA) of 1966 as amended, the Antiquities Act, the Archaeological Resources Protection Act (ARPA) as amended, and the Native American Graves Protection and Repatriation Act (NAGPRA). Permanent settlements of the Hawaiian Islands by Polynesians are recorded as early as the 7th century Common Era (C.E.); however, initial discovery and colonization may have occurred even three to four centuries earlier. Testaments to these settlements include remnants of heiau (temple sites), burial sites, terraces which supported agriculture (e.g., irrigated cultivation of kalo), stone-lined water ditches (‘auwai), and stone-walled fish ponds (loko kuapā). It is estimated that prior to the arrival of British explorer Captain James Cook in 1778, the Native Hawaiian population numbered from 250,000–1,000,000, with most settlements established below 3,000 feet.
