Scope and Content

The Level of Threat of UXO to the Kaho'olawe Reserve Waters. Preliminary Draft for Dames & Moore Hawaii, Prepared by Charles L. Morgan, Ph.D., Morgan and Associates, March 5, 1996. Excerpts: "One of the primary impediments to the exploration and conservation of the resources in the Kaho'olawe Island Reserve Waters is the existence of buried and proud (on the surface of the seabed) unexploded ordnance (UXO) within the limits of the Reserve Waters. Essential to the management of the resources in the Reserve Waters is an assessment of the risks which are imposed by UXO to human safety and health." "This report reviews the results of available studies on this topic, it examines the inferred seabed distributions of UXO, with a specific focus on the areas of highest interest for potential human activities. It provides specific outcome scenarios which describe: a) the likely chemical and physical transformations which would accompany weathering for proud or buried ordnnace, b) the outcomes to be expected from interactions of humans and UXO. It also provides ranked priorities for relative liabilities related to various activities which are expected to take place in Reserve Waters. This study is focused primarily on shallow seabed (<20 fathoms) and coastal areas, since these areas are both expected to have the highest densities of UXO and the highest probabilities for human interactions with UXO."
