Project Location This study addresses seven, large analysis areas: Pearl Harbor Landing, O‘ahu, Kāne‘ohe Landing, O‘ahu, West Moloka‘i, South Moloka‘i, Lāna‘i Landing, West Maui, Kahului, Maui. Land Jurisdiction Various (Federal, State, County, Private) Agencies This study may be used to facilitate consultation with federal, state and county agencies as well as Native Hawaiian organizations and other concerned organizations. Project Description The Interisland Wind project proposes to send up to 400 megawatts of renewable wind energy from Moloka‘i and Lāna‘i via undersea cable to O‘ahu (and Maui). The project would play an important part in helping to achieve the Hawai‘i Clean Energy Initiative goal of 70% clean energy for electricity and ground transportation by 2030. The State of Hawai‘i, First Wind Hawai‘i, Castle & Cooke and Hawaiian Electric Company are committed to working collaboratively with the public on the project. Possible impact on historic or cultural properties is one of many concerns being taken into consideration in cable route planning. Project Acreage 23,023 acres (approximately 36 square miles) Area of Potential The area of potential effect is anticipated to be confined to the Effect (APE) and immediate area of land alteration associated with the cable landing Survey Acreage enterprise and integration into electrical grids. Historic This is intended as primarily a planning document. This study may be Preservation used in consultation with the State Historic Preservation Division, the Regulatory Context Office of Hawaiian Affairs, Island Burial Councils and/or other concerned Native Hawaiian organizations and/or other concerned historic preservation organizations. Fieldwork Effort There was no fieldwork component to this study. Mitigation More detailed cultural resource management work is indicated as the Recommendation cable landing area site selection process moves forward. This will probably include one or more archaeological inventory surveys and one or more archaeological monitoring programs.

    Reference Guide 433 Coast Artillery Companies 1901-1924 Bolling W. Smith The following listing of serially numbered companies of coast artillery gives their locations and changes in designations from their creation in 1901 until 1924, when the separate company numbers were finally abolished. This list is best used in conjunction with “Coast Artillery Organization: A Brief Overview,” in the May 2008 Coast Defense Journal (Vol. 22 No. 2). Redesignations were effective in the year shown. The year shown for locations indicates that the company was at the new post in that year, but could have arrived there during the previous year. Units in parentheses in the headings indicate the units from which the companies were formed, either by redesignation of lettered companies of the seven artillery regiments in 1901, or by splitting existing companies of coast artillery. 1st Company (A/1st Artillery) 1916 – Fort Wint, PI 1901 – Fort Dade, FL 1917 – 13th Company, CD Manila & Subic Bays 1902 – Fort De Soto, FL 1917 – Fort Mills, PI 1907 – Fort Armstrong, TH 1922 – 4th Company, CAC 1908 – Fort Levett, ME 1924 – D/1st CA Regiment (HD), inactive 1910 – Fort McKinley, ME 1916 – Temp., Fort Sam Houston 5th Company (F/1st Artillery) 1916 – 1st Company, Fort McKinley, ME 1901 – Fort Screven, GA 1917 – 1st Company, CD Portland 1907 – Fort Williams, ME 1917 – A/6 Provisional Artillery Regiment 1916 – 2nd Company, Fort Williams, ME 1918 – A/51st Artillery Regiment, CAC 1917 – H/6th Provisional Artillery Regiment, CAC 1922 – 1st Company, CAC (additional designation) 1918 – H/51st Artillery Regiment, CAC 1924 – A/51st CA Regiment (TD), Fort Eustis, VA 1922 – 5th Company, CAC (additional designation) 1924 – F/43rd Artillery Regiment (Ry), inactive 2nd Company (B/1st Artillery) 1901 – Fort Trumbull, CT 6th Company (G/1st Artillery) 1903 – Fort H.G.

The civilian community of Wahiawa is located on the other side of the Wahiawa Reservoir, also known as Lake Wilson, from the installation. The installation is roughly bounded by Kunia Road, W"ilikina Drive, Lyman Road, on the north by Kaukonahua Stream, and on the north and west by the ridge lines leading to Mount Kaala, the highest point on Oahu. Present Owner: U.S. Army Present Occupants: U.S. Army Present Use: Military reservation for the U.S. Army Si~nificance: Schofield Barracks maintains historic significance in the areas of military history and architecture. Schofield Barracks played a primary role in training troops for the Pacific Theater of Operations in World War II (WW II), and the Korean and Vietnam Conflicts. It is therefore associated with events that have made a significant contribution to broad patterns of history. Additionally, the core of the installation is associated with the physical development of a permanent Army post in the first decades after the U.S. aquisi1tion of Hawaii. The historic buildings at Schofield embody the distinctive characteristics of several types, periods, and methods of construction.

  • A List of Military Reservations and Concrete Gun Batteries 1890-1950
    Reference Guide 201 MODERN AMERICAN SEACOAST DEFENSES A LIST OF MILITARY RESERVATIONS AND CONCRETE GUN BATTERIES 1890-1950 Compiled by Mark A. Berhow © 2021, Mark Berhow Revision Date: February 27, 2021 Fort Michie (Great Gull Island, NY) Once part of the Harbor Defenses of Long Island Sound, NY, the island is now a national wildlife refuge. The large concrete structure in the forground is Battery J.M.K. Davis, built for a single 16-inch gun on a disappearing carriage. Photograph by Terry McGovern, 2003. 202 American Seacoast Defenses AMERICAN SEACOAST DEFENSES A LIST OF MILITARY RESERVATIONS AND CONCRETE GUN BATTERIES 1890-1945 This is an attempt to list all the concrete emplacements built by the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers to hold seacoast armament of the “Modern era” (1890-1950). It includes four major generations of American coast defense construction—the Early Modern Program batteries (the “Endicott Board” and the “Taft Board”), the post-World War I batteries, and the WW II Modernization Program batteries—as well as those batteries built during emergency situations. Every effort has been made to make this list as accurate as possible, but it will most likely contain a number of errors and omissions. The author would greatly appreciate being contacted about any corrections. Fort and battery names used in this list are those perceived by the author as being the last official designation. Named batteries are listed by surname only, even though as many were designated by the full name of the person they were named after. See Designating US Seacoast Fortifications, War Department General Orders and Letters from the Adjutant General 1809-1950, compiled by Matthew Adams (privately published by the compiler, Australia, 2000) for more information on fort and battery names.
