The Project's purpose is to reduce levee and streambed erosion along a section of the existing flood control channel and provide public access to information about completed flood control improvements. On August 12, 2003 a scoping meeting was conducted in Wailuku, Maui to obtain public input for the Environmental Assessment of the project. The flood control improvements were conducted in partnership with Maui County Department of Public Works, Environmental Management and the US Army Corps of Engineers.
