Molokai’s oldest and longest-running hotel, Hotel Moloka’i, is proposing a $1.4 million project to upgrade its wastewater treatment facility to comply with state Department of Health standards.
Proposed by the Association of Apartment Owners of Hotel Moloka’i, which is responsible for running and maintaining the hotel complex, the project would upgrade and construct a new wastewater treatment facility within the upper parking lot of the 2.5-acre waterfront property.
The cost of the project is about $1,362,600. Once permits and approvals are acquired, construction is anticipated to take approximately nine months to complete.
A final environmental assessment and finding of no significant impact was published April 23 in the state Office of Environmental Quality Control’s “The Environmental Notice.”
