From: Hayes, James (Honolulu) To: Chen, Edward; Miyamoto, Faith CC: Seto, Joanna L; Reichelderfer, Jan; Zaref, Amy; Tam, Ryan Sent: 9/28/2009 1:22:40 PM Subject: RE: Honolulu Transit Project Pre-WQC Application Briefing meeting

Ed and Joanna,

We appreciate you meeting with the Honolulu High-Capacity Transit Corridor (HHCTC) Project Friday last week. We hope that it was informative and helpful to you. It was very useful for us to hear first hand regarding the issues that are of greatest concern to you and the Clean Water Branch in general.

As we have digested the discussion of last Friday we feel it would be useful to have a follow-up meeting in the near future to focus on Section 401 WQC permit application/review process. We are thinking a meeting some time toward the later half of next week or early the week after (say between October 7 and 14).

Please let us know if you are available in that time frame to discuss the project's 401 WQC further. Have a great day,

Jim Hayes PB 0: 808-566-2239; C: 808-354-4553

Hi Ed -

Attached are the Preliminary Jurisdiction Determination from the USACE for the Honolulu High-Capacity Transit Corridor Project and a letter received today from the USACE requesting that they be relegated to participating agency status for the Final EIS. As Jan Reichelderfer mentioned in her email, we have worked to avoid, minimize and mitigate impacts to waters of the U.S. and

would welcome the opportunity to meet with you and your staff to present the materials. Would Friday, September 18 th 11-1 or 1-3 work for you? If not, please let us know what days would be possible for you to meet next week.

Thank you.

Good morning Mr. Chen. We have gotten word from the ACOE that they are ready to issue the Jurisdictional Determination for the transit project and have determined how the project will be permitted. In the process of providing all the information and materials they needed to do this, we have worked through many of the impacts, BMPs, mitigation measures, etc and would like to present to you and your staff a summary of where we are before we submit the Water Quality Certification. At this presentation, we do not expect you to make any formal determinations or recommendations. We hope to save your staff time and effort having us present the material rather than wading though these documents. Would either Tues, September 15th from 8-10 or 1-3 or Friday, September 18th 11-1 or 1-3 work for you? Thanks Jan Reichelderfer PB, 566-2204
