Trustees to review reports on H3 route

Trustees of the Office of Hawaiian Affairs held a workshop, Nov. 15, on the anticipated route of the H-3 highway and its possible impact on archeological sites. Invited participants included archeologistsfrom Bishop Museum, officials of the state department of transportation, a representative of the state historic sites section of DLNR and a spokeswoman for Malama Kukuiokane. Following an exposition of the planned routes of H-3 and possible conflicts with ancient agricultural terraces and perhaps the heiau Kukuiokane, the Bishop Museum archeologists said their final report would be made to DOT in late December. Trustees decided to review the Bishop Museum archaeologists' report and recommendations along with a recommendation from OHA archeologist Earl "Buddy" Neller and any recommendations whieh Malama Kukuiokane may submit before reaching a decision on OHA policy on the state's highway route proposals.
