Kamehameha Schools - Keauhou Bay Managment Plan DEIS
Kamehameha Schools proposes to implement the Keauhou Bay Management Plan (KBMP) on approximately 29 acres at Keauhou Bay. The objective of the KBMP is to reinvigorate and transform the Keauhou Bay area to become a place where culture and education is celebrated and highlighted amidst viable commercial operations, which are essential to fund the cultural and educational programming within the immediate area. The KBMP proposes to reorient commercial activities away from culturally sensitive areas to alleviate congestion and establish a new place-based cultural educational center. Existing commercial operations and parking areas will be relocated to new facilities in more appropriate locations away from cultural resources. The KBMP also proposes to create a new low-impact lodging on the resort-zoned plateau mauka of the bay. The new reconfiguration will focus on place-based cultural stewardship, enhance and encourage bayfront access for kamaʻāina and kupaʻāina, and promote high quality educational experiences for all. As the proposed KBMP is located within the shoreline area (as defined in Hawai‘i Revised Statutes section 205A-41), a County Special Management Area (SMA) Use Permit is required. The SMA Use Permit application requires that Kamehameha Schools complete the State Environmental Review Process, commencing with the preparation and review of an Environmental Impact Statement.
