Geology and ground-water hydrology in the vicinity of Honokohau Harbor
Waimea Water Services, Inc. and Mink and Yuen, Inc.. 2006. Geology and ground-water hydrology in the vicinity of Honokohau Harbor
A field hydrology study was conducted for the purpose of determining the ground-water regime in the immediate vicinity ofHonokohau Harbor and specifically, to document the existing ground-water behavior in the area associated with the proposed Kona Kai Ola Marina expansion to the south of Honokohau. As part of this and other activities, two observation well sites(# 2 and #6) were selected to provide data on water level and water quality for the proposed project. Additionally, three off site wells located in the nearby Kaloko-Honokohau National Park and one in the quarry located mauka of the project were included in the site study network. However, before assessing the hydrological impacts it is important to understand the surficial and subsurface geology within the Kona Kai Ola project. The following discussion will focus on the geological conditions found in and around Honokohau Harbor.
