I support funding for the Ma'alaea wastewater system!

Aloha!

I am the president of the AOAO for Ma’alaea Yacht Marina at 30 Hauoli Road, Wailuku. Our building was constructed in 1979 and does not have public water and sewer service. It is a disservice to the entire community that this ecologically very important area does not have the ability to adequately treat and dispose of human wastes. Property taxes in Ma’alaea are no different than those elsewhere in Maui where those vital services are available to all.

I urge you to appropriate funds to develop and operate a wastewater system for this important community.

Mahalo,

Ma'alaea Regiional wastewater facility funding

We have been a condo owner in Ma’alaea since 1984; and are definitely in favor of the County Council approving the $9.5 million funding for the above referenced wastewater facility. Such a facility will serve the Ma’alaea community for years, improve the Ma’alaea Bay ocean water, stop the coral destruction, and reduce beach erosion.

Every homeowner I’ve talked to is in favor of this project; and we sincerely hope the Council members feel the same way. Thank you, for reading my email.

My husband and I have owned our home here in Ma’alaea since 2011. We have watched our beloved bay become sicker and sicker with polluted run-off.

We strongly support the Council Member Kelly King’s proposal to include $9.5 million for a Ma’alaea Regional Wastewater Reclamation System in the 2023 budget.

Wastewater Reclamation System for Maalaea

I would like to express my support for the proposal for a new wastewater reclamation system for Maalaea, The system would be of immeasurable benefit in recovering the waters and wildlife of Maalaea Bay. Maui county funding of the proposal for this up-to-date technology would be a great investment in the health of the island.

Sincerely,

The need for a MAALAEA regional plant to fix injection well problem

As a 37 year resident of Maui, tax payer, and ARDENT voter, I am asking the Maui County Council to include $9.5 million on the County budget to build a Maalaea regional plant and fix the injection well problem. We need this facility to protect our beautiful Maalaea community, seaside, and aina. I will be watching this issue closely and voting in November with the results of this issue in mind.

Wastewater Treatment Plant Maalaea Approval Respectfully Requested

Aloha County Counsel: As Maalaea home owners, we respectfully request you approve the Wastewater Treatment plant which hopefully will serve as a template for success for all of Maui. Aloha and Mahalo, Joseph and Mary Anna Walloch

Aloha Honorable Mayor Victorino and Esteemed Councilmembers,

Please support and approve the amendment to the FY2023 Maui County budget to include $9.5 million for the Ma'alaea Wastewater Treatment and Reclamation plant. This is the solution Maui needs to rid itself of most of the remaining wastewater injection wells which have contributed to the impaired water status designation of Ma'alaea Bay. Forward thinking and economically and environmentally sound solutions to waste management are what our county and community need to help keep Maui county residents and our surrounding waters healthy and thriving.

Again, we wholeheartedly support the full funding of the proposed regional WWTP for Ma'alaea, and we respectfully request support from the Mayor and Councilmembers as well.

Mahalo for your time and consideration of this project funding request!

Mahalo With Aloha,

Maalaea Regional Wastewater Reclamation Facility

Good morning council members and thank you for your service to our community!

My name is Leif Bjornson. My family moved from Minnesota to Maui in 1966 and for 4 years lived in a small house about halfway between the Maalaea harbor and the end of the road near what is now Haycraft park. My brothers and I with a few neighbor kids grew up surfing from Freighttrains to Rusty pipes and Saltflats. If there were no waves we snorkeled and occasionally spearfished in the beautiful water of Maalaea bay. In the late1970's the Lauloa condominium was built and my family owns an apartment here. I now live in Wisconsin and return to Maui for 2 months or so each year, so over the years I have seen the changes. There is now almost no seaweed and the reef is gray/brown. With waves of 2-3 feet this past week the water was churned up and murky but alarmingly it TASTED bad! Yuck!

Here at Lauloa we just spent millions to upgrade our wastewater treatment plant but it is still the old-fashioned injection well system that is clearly contributing to the damage of the bay waters.

The U.S. Environmental Protection Agency now lists Maalaea Bay as an impaired body of water. Just imagine the impact on our tourist industry and economy if word got out that Hawaii's coastal waters are polluted
with human waste!

We MUST DO what we can now to stop this damage to our "golden" resource! Therefore I strongly support Councilperson King's addition to the 2023 budget of 9.5 million dollars for a new Maalaea Regional Wastewater Reclamation Facility. I urge moving forward ASAP!

Thanks for your consideration and your service.

Mahalo and aloha, Leif Bjornson

Good Morning!

As Kanai a Nalu Condo Owner, I support the amendment Kelly King has proposed to fund the Maalaea Wastewater system. Kanai a Nalu currently operates it's own STP with injection wells.

Aloha County of Maui Mayor and Council members,

My name is Jim Zarley. I am an owner of condos and a current board member of Milowai Ma’alaea AOAO. I am in support of Council member Kelly King’s proposal for $9.5 million of funding for a new Ma'alaea Regional Wastewater Reclamation Facility in the 2023 budget.

I strongly believe that this proposal is in the best interest of the County, the State of Hawaii and the habitat along the shoreline of Ma’alaea Bay. It will expand the life of the coastal waters and addresses a serious challenge to all who inhabit the Ma’alaea area and gives promise to a solution of Effluent disposal through injection wells that has lingered for many many years.

Thank you for your leadership and commitment in resolving a long standing issue.

Sincerely,
Jim Zarley
