KĀʻANAPALI BEACH RESTORATION PROJECT

LAND BOARD SUBMITS KĀʻANAPALI BEACH RESTORATION ENVIRONMENTAL IMPACT STATEMENT TO GOVERNOR IGE 

(HONOLULU) – The Board of Land and Natural Resources voted yesterday to submit the Final Environmental Impact Statement (EIS) for the Kāʻanapali Beach Restoration and Berm Enhancement project to Governor David Ige.

This is the next step for the project, which is proposed for a one-mile stretch of beach in west Maui. It is considered a short-to-midterm effort to mitigate the impacts of rising water levels and coastal erosion, which are increasing with global sea level rise.
