This has prompted some state Department of Transportation officials to describe the ongoing impasse as nearing a \u201ctipping point\u201d where the state could consider resorting to eminent domain.<\/p>\n<div>\n<div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<p>Regardless of whether the handful of parcels making up a combined 9.38 acres are acquired through voluntary sale or forced seizure, the project will compel the relocation of more than a dozen businesses and a church.<\/p>\n<p>These include AirGas Gaspro, Ocean Front Kitchen, Service Rentals and Supplies, Hilo Auto Sales and Rentals, Maika\u2018i Auto Body amd Paint, Ho\u2018ola Farms, Keoki\u2019s Auto Repair, Conen\u2019s Freight Transportation Inc., Westside Audio Hilo, Ambrosio\u2019s Auto Glass, Surplus Plus, Automotive Solutions Hawaii and Car Rentals LLC and Zion\u2019s House of Praise Holiness Church.<\/p>\n<p>The properties in question have three owners: Parcel 1 is owned by AirGas Gaspro, which operates a gas plant and retail store selling gas, welding equipment and industrial safety supplies on the corner of Kalanianaole Street and Kumau Street. Parcels 2 and 3 along Kalanianaole Street are owned by 595K LLC, while Parcels 4 and 5 along Kalanianaole Street are owned by Sparks and Boschetti LLC.<\/p>\n<p>Parcel 4 is the largest of the bunch at 5.56 acres, with roughly 11 businesses operating out of its buildings and warehouses comprising the Kuhio Industrial Park.<\/p>\n<p>DOT officials have contended that the lack of landowner cooperation has bumped the project\u2019s shovel-ready date back by at least a few years. According to the project\u2019s final environmental assessment published in October 2024, the process to acquire the five properties in question was anticipated to be completed by the end of 2025. Now, half a year past the estimated acquisition completion date, the process has barely even begun.<\/p>\n<p>The state has yet to complete its \u201cPhase 2\u201d environmental site assessment for the parcels to evaluate the presence of contamination in their soil and groundwater.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThat original timeline in the EA was strictly based on cooperative landowners \u2014 we\u2019re not there,\u201d DOT Deputy Director for Harbors Dreana Kalili told the Tribune-Herald. \u201cCooperation with the landowners at this point in time is just for us to have access to the property so we can finish our Phase 2 as well as our appraisal. We can\u2019t even get on (site) to do a proper appraisal, so we know what we\u2019re dealing with in terms of the acquisition cost. So, I think we\u2019re approaching a point \u2014 the tipping point and the decision point \u2014 where we will need to make a decision about whether we keep asking politely or whether we proceed with eminent domain.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Under the Fifth Amendment to the U.S. Constitution, federal, state and local governments can use eminent domain to seize private property as long as it\u2019s for \u201cpublic use\u201d and owners are provided \u201cjust compensation.\u201d Legal experts generally agree that expanding a harbor is a valid use of the power because it involves improving infrastructure used to benefit the general public.<\/p>\n<p>In what Kalili described as a \u201cbottleneck\u201d in the project\u2019s progress, the property owners\u2019 refusal to grant access has made it impossible for the state to come up with offers or settle on an accurate budget because the extent of hazardous materials contamination \u2014 and its resulting remediation costs \u2014 are still unknown. According to the EA, between $15 million and $17 million of the project\u2019s total price tag will be spent on land acquisition.<\/p>\n<p>The document spells out a long list of potential pollution issues documented by state officials during preliminary site inspections, including petroleum products \u201cin contact with bare soil,\u201d metal residues from \u201cunpermitted automobile salvage activities,\u201d abandoned underground storage tanks used to store diesel, hydraulic fluid and used oil, piles of large appliances, unlabeled barrels and buckets, \u201crusting\/leaking salvage vehicles,\u201d countless used tires and various other types of municipal waste.<\/p>\n<p>This is in addition to contamination stemming from the properties\u2019 historical uses, including pesticide and fertilizer manufacturing, storage and distribution.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWe know the history of the owners and the land and what businesses operated there \u2014 that\u2019s not a secret,\u201d Kalili said. \u201cBut because we haven\u2019t been able to gain access to the land to complete our Phase 2, we don\u2019t know the extent. And so we could be pleasantly surprised and be like, \u2018oh, it\u2019s all clean\u2019, or it could be much worse. That\u2019s why the work with the landowners is so important to the process and we just haven\u2019t been successful there.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Community benefit<\/p>\n<p>The state\u2019s acquisition of the contested parcels will allow for the widening of Kalanianaole Street to include a minimum 350-foot-long dedicated left-turn lane in front of the harbor which could accommodate up to four semi-trailers, according to the EA. This would reduce traffic congestion along the coastal thoroughfare by maintaining a \u201cclearer through lane.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>The project also involves using parts of Parcels 4 and 5 to build a 450-foot-long \u201cstacking\u201d zone for semi-trailers leading up to the harbor entrance, which the new left-turn lane would funnel trucks into. This stacking zone would be approximately 70 feet wide, allowing for up to three lanes that could potentially accommodate between five and six trucks each, or around 16 total. Existing buildings on these parcels would need to be demolished to build the stacking area.<\/p>\n<p>Read more <a href=\"https:\/\/movingtohawaiiguide.com\/?p=573\">Revamping Hawaii Volcanoes National Park<\/a><\/p>\n<p>\u201cThere are a lot of benefits, but I think the community is really going to see and touch and feel the one which is that stacking and storage turn lane into the main port gate,\u201d Kalili said.<\/p>\n<p>Enabling trucks to queue up right outside the harbor entrance without blocking through traffic, she said, will be a welcome relief to drivers. According to the EA, DOT has observed vehicles routinely backing up for over a quarter mile along Kalanianaole Street in either direction of the harbor, causing traffic jams that can last up to an hour during peak activity periods. \u201cThere is going to be another lane so that motorists who need to get beyond that choke point at the port gate can move past it safely and seamlessly,\u201d she said. \u201cThat\u2019s going to be the big benefit.\u201d <\/p>\n<p>This, she said, will be a boon to road safety along the streets leading up to the harbor.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cGenerally speaking, when you have a planned and dedicated (turn lane) for these very heavy vehicles \u2014 they\u2019re trucks that are carrying loaded usually 40 to 45-foot containers \u2014 it separates them from everyone else driving on the road,\u201d she said. \u201cAnd that separation, even if it\u2019s just for a couple hundred feet, is going to be helpful in improving safety.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>The majority of the public, she said, probably won\u2019t notice the effect of the project\u2019s \u201coperational efficiencies\u201d until they go shopping.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWe\u2019re going to see some reductions in timing for cargo delivery, but, of course, the public right outside \u2014 unless you\u2019re a longshoreman or you do a lot of regular business at the port \u2014 you don\u2019t see those adjustments,\u201d she said. \u201cBut you would feel them when you go to the store and the shelves are empty.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Disembarking cruise ship passengers also stand to benefit from the improvements. Currently, passengers on foot and the ground transportation vehicles entering the port to pick them up and drop them off can conflict with cargo loading and unloading operations, causing delays and safety threats to all parties.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cIt will allow for additional separation between cruise passengers and the cargo moves,\u201d Kalili said of the expansion project. \u201cThe cruise passenger terminal is like smack in the middle between two cargo yards, so with the additional space we\u2019ll be able to carve out some very safe and protected pedestrian pathways from the terminal for those who want to explore Hilo on their own.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>The EA echoes this, stating the project will allow DOT to \u201cimplement improvements separating access into and out of the harbor\u2019s facility benefiting both passenger service and cargo operations by providing safer and dedicated access into the harbor for each activity.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Improved safety<\/p>\n<p>Matson Navigation Company, Pasha Hawaii Transport Lines and Young Brothers Limited are the harbor\u2019s main users transporting and processing cargo. They use around 31 acres of the 46-acre facility as cargo handling and storage areas. Containing semi-trucks in the proposed external stacking area would free up more cargo yard space, giving loading operators a wider berth to safely maneuver.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cHaving more space and having that congestion mitigated inside the terminal gate makes it more safe for the personnel and labor that operate in the terminal,\u201d she said.<\/p>\n<p>Other safety upgrades called for by the expansion plans include replacing worn asphalt surfaces with hardened concrete and siting brighter, more efficient light poles \u2014 which were originally constructed half a century ago.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cYou can imagine the improvements in lighting technology since the \u201970s,\u201d she said. \u201cThis means that we can effectively light more areas of the terminal with fewer fixtures.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Reducing the number of obstacles like light poles in the cargo yard for operators to navigate around might seem insignificant, she said, but it can quickly add up.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cIf we don\u2019t need to have as many pedestals, there\u2019s just more area and open space for those who are operating the cargo handling equipment to move around,\u201d she said. \u201cIt\u2019s small things like this that are going to improve aspects of safety for those who work in the terminal.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>AirGas Gaspro, 595K LLC and Sparks and Boschetti LLC did not immediately respond to email inquiries.<\/p>\n<p>Read more <a href=\"https:\/\/movingtohawaiiguide.com\/?p=571\">Friendship over fear: How USMNT\u2019s long-held brotherhood is antidote to World Cup nerves<\/a><\/p>\n<p>Email Stefan Verbano at stefan.verbano@hawaiitribune-herald.com.\n<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Hilo Harbor project hits snag &#8211; Hawaii News | Hawaii Tribune-Herald<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":576,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[2],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-577","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-news"],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v27.6 -
