ROH Sec. 18A-1.6 requires approved erosion and sediment control plans for Kapolei land-disturbing activities that need building, grading, stockpiling, or trenching permits.
Chapter 18A is the primary chapter on grading, soil erosion, and sediment control. Sec. 18A-1.6 requires an approved erosion and sediment control plan before qualifying land disturbance begins. Kapolei's dry leeward climate and exposed tradewinds drive dust generation from disturbed earth, so site managers must maintain silt fencing, stabilized construction entrances, perimeter controls, and dust suppression. Plans typically address slope stabilization, runoff routing to the MS4, and temporary and permanent vegetation. Failure to carry out the plan during construction can carry sediment into coastal channels that discharge toward the West Oahu shoreline.
Beginning qualifying work without an approved plan or failing to install and maintain controls can lead to stop work orders, fines, and required remediation.
