AI Summary
- Department of Transportation, in consultation with the Board of Land and Natural Resources, is requested to support a study on restoring traditional water flow to Kalauhaihai Fishpond and Maunalua Bay
- Study should address how to reduce damage to utilities, sewer infrastructure, and Kalanianaole Highway by returning water flow to the fishpond
- Kalauhaihai Fishpond was damaged in the early 1990s when state highway widening ruptured the lava tube connecting the fishpond to its underground artesian water source
- A 2009 City and County assessment found Sewer Segment 3 near the fishpond was infiltrated by one million gallons of groundwater daily; a $9 million sewer rehabilitation only slightly reduced infiltration
- Department of Transportation must submit a report to the Legislature no later than 20 days prior to the 2012 Regular Session convening
