PALILA RESTORATION RESEARCH, 1996–2012: SUMMARY AND MANAGEMENT IMPLICATIONS A palila (Loxioides bailleui) selects a seedpod from a māmane (Sophora chrysophylla) tree high on the western slope of Mauna Kea, Hawai‘i. The palila’s ecology and existence are inextricably linked to green māmane seeds, their critically important food. Chronic shortfalls in the supply of māmane seedpods could lead to the extinction of the palila. Photo by Jack Jeffrey (http://www.jackjeffreyphoto.com/).

  • Pōhakuloa Training Area (PTA) Real Property Master Plan (RPMP)
    Draft Finding of No Significant Impact Pōhakuloa Training Area Real Property Master Plan Adoption for Hawai‘i Island, Hawai‘i AUTHORITY Pursuant to the National Environmental Policy Act (NEPA) of 1969, as amended (42 United States Code 4321-4347) (NEPA), the Council on Environmental Quality (CEQ) regulations for implementing NEPA (40 Code of Federal Regulations [CFR] parts 1500-1508), and the Final Rule on Environmental Analysis of Army Actions (32 CFR Part 651), the United States Army Garrison Hawaii (USAG-HI) gives notice that a Programmatic Environmental Assessment (PEA) has been prepared for adoption of the Pōhakuloa Training Area Real Property Master Plan, Hawai‘i Island, Hawai‘i. PROPOSED ACTION The U.S. Army (Army) proposes to adopt the Real Property Master Plan (RPMP) for the Pōhakuloa Training Area (PTA). The adoption of the RPMP is an administrative action that would not involve new development, ground disturbance, alteration of any real estate, facility or infrastructure, or change in training activities at PTA. The adoption of the PTA RPMP involves senior mission commander endorsement, recommendation by the installation Real Property Planning Board, and approval by the designated staff of the Installation Management Command (a field-operating agency of the Office, Assistant Chief of Staff for Installation Management). The Proposed Action is independent of the types of training and tempo of range activities taking place at PTA. It is not expected to result in changes to training tempo and intensity at PTA because these conditions are driven by national security threat assessments and the ebb and flow of international affairs. The PEA evaluates the environmental impacts of the RPMP adoption and includes analyses of the no- action alternative.

Palila were confined to the subalpinewoodland on Mauna Kea on the island of Hawaii, occurredbetween 2,000 and 2,850 m elevation, and reachedhighest densitieson the southwestslopes. The populationshowed large annual fluctuations,from 6,400 birds in 1981 to 2,000 in 1984. The width of woodland was the most important variable in determin- ing habitat response.Palila were more common in areaswith greater crown cover, taller trees,and a higher proportion of native plants in the understory.Annual variation in Palila density within a habitat reflectedvariation in levels of their staplefood, mamanepods. The main limiting factorsof the population appearedto be the availability of good habitat and levels of their staple food.

Dye & Colleagues, Archaeologists, Inc. has identified significant historic sites in the vicinity of a proposed trail system and has identified both the potential impacts of trail use on the cultural sites and management strategies to mitigate those impacts. The proposed trail system includes approximately 319 km of trails at high elevations on Hawai‘i Island (fig. 1). The main trail follows the southeast and northwest flanks of Mauna Loa and runs north to Hualalai.¯ Side trails run from Hualalai¯ to Pu‘uanahulu, to Moku‘aweoweo¯ at the summit of Mauna Loa from the north and south, and over the southwest rift of Mauna Loa in two places. A preliminary alignment through Pohakuloa¯ Training Area ends near the base of the steep slopes of Mauna Kea.
