Interested parties are hereby notified that an application has been received for a Department of the Army (DA) permit for certain work in waters of the United States as described below and shown on the enclosed drawings. The Hawaii Kai Marina Community Association (HKMCA) proposes to replace the existing sandbag groin with a larger L-head rock groin located along the Hawaii Kai Marina entrance channel at 21.280739°, -157.711508° and periodically move sand trapped by the groin to the beach east to TMKs (1) 3-9-002:001, 002, 003, 004, and 034 at 21.277678°, -157.709349° all in Maunalua Bay, Honolulu, Island of Oahu, Hawaii. The purpose of replacement of the groin and sand backpassing is to maintain ingress and egress through the Hawaii Kai marina entrance channel, reduce the need for future maintenance dredging in the Hawaii Kai marina entrance channel, and reduce erosion along the east edge of Portlock Beach.
