As the notice prints it
Pomaikaʻi Partners, LLC (Laukihaʻa Farms) proposes to replace an existing damaged and hydraulically undersized stream crossing within the Helemano Stream corridor in Haleʻiwa, Oʻahu. The existing crossing consists of a low-profile concrete slab culvert that has experienced periodic overtopping, scour, erosion, and structural deterioration during major storm events. The proposed replacement crossing consists of a new open-bottom arch culvert designed to improve hydraulic performance while maintaining a more natural streambed beneath the crossing. The proposed culvert will be approximately 15.5 feet wide with an approximate rise of 8 feet. The open-bottom design is intended to improve stream connectivity, reduce the potential for long- term scour and erosion potential, and enhance overall stream habitat conditions. Project activities will include removal of the existing crossing, temporary stream diversion during construction, excavation and grading, installation of the new culvert structure, roadway tie-ins, streambank stabilization, scour protection, implementation of erosion and sediment control measures, and final site restoration.
