DLNR Invites Public Comments on Kikiaola Harbor Sand Bypass Plan

The state Department of Land and Natural Resources has invited the public to attend a meeting on a sand bypass program planned for the Kikiaola Small Boat Harbor in Kekaha.

Thegardenisland.com informs that the DLNR said the dredging of the inner harbor basin was completed in 2010, and the wooden marginal pier was also replaced during that project.

Since completion of the project, DLNR Division of Boating and Ocean Recreation has received numerous concerns from harbor users and inquiries about what is planned for a sand bypass program.

The meeting will be held tomorrow at 5:30 p.m. at the Waimea Neighborhood Center, at 4556 Makeke Road.
