D.L. Adams Associates. 2015. Environmental Noise Study, Queen Kaahumanu Highway Widening Phase 2, in the vicinity of Kaloko-Honokohau National Historic Park, North Kona, Island of Hawaii, Hawaii. Federal Highway Administration and Hawaii Department of Transportation
The Federal Highway Administration (FHWA) and the Hawaii Department of Transportation (HDOT) conducted a noise study ( enclosed) to assess any potential impacts to the Kaloko-Honokohau National Historical Park in accordance with 23 CFR 772 and the HDOT Highway Noise Policy and Abatement Guidelines and per 23 CFR 774.15 to determine whether there is a constructive use. Noise measurements were taken at three (3) locations specified by the National Park Service (NPS) within the Kaloko-Honokohau National Historical Park that included the a) visitor center, b) cultural resource center and c) a location along an historic trail mid-way between the highway and shoreline. The existing noise environment was measured 24-hours a day for 27 consecutive days in February and March 2014. Models of the future noise environment with and without the project were prepared using the FHWA Traffic Noise Model (TNM).
