human health and safety.
The Draft EIS indicates that under
Alternatives 1, 2, and 3, significant
adverse impacts on land use (land
tenure), cultural practices, and
environmental justice could occur.
Under the No Action Alternative,
significant adverse impacts on
biological resources, socioeconomics,
and utilities could occur. The No Action
Alternative could have significant
beneficial impacts on land use, cultural
practices, and environmental justice. To
mitigate adverse impacts to land use,
the Army would consider adding nonbarbed wire fencing and signage to
minimize encroachment and accidental
or intentional trespass from adjacent
non-U.S. Government-owned land. In
consideration of adverse impacts to
cultural practices and environmental
justice, the Army, in consultation with
Native Hawaiians and cultural
practitioners, proposes to: (1) formalize
a cultural access request process to
enable Native Hawaiians and cultural
practitioners to promote and preserve
cultural practices, beliefs, and
resources; and (2) explore options to
provide unlimited access to specific
locations. To mitigate adverse impacts
on human health and safety, the Army
would consider: (1) negotiating an
agreement with the State to allow the
Army to monitor for wildfires on the
State-owned land that is not retained by
the Army; and (2) continuing or
renegotiating its Memorandum of
Agreement with the Hawai1i County Fire
Department to assist wildfire responders
with wildfire suppression outside of
PTA boundaries.
The No Action Alternative could
have: significant adverse impacts on
biological resources, socioeconomics,
and utilities; significant beneficial
impacts for land use, cultural practices,
and environmental justice; and less than
significant impacts on all other
resources.
The Army distributed the Draft EIS to:
Native Hawaiian Organizations; Federal,
State, and local agencies and officials;
and other stakeholders. The Draft EIS
and informational materials are also
available on the EIS website at: https://
