LANDFILL THREATENS MARINE SANCTUARY, WHALES, AND HAWAIIAN VILLAGE OF OLOWALU

• Olowalu is a revered sanctuary for Maui’s endangered humpback whale population and their birthing calves, manta rays (the largest population in the U.S.), and its indigenous Hawaiian people.
• Olowalu’s reef was researched by Mission Blue’s Sylvia Earle—the world’s most respected and celebrated marine biologist—and is designated a Hope Spot. It is a place critical to the health of our oceans and the primary source of coral larvae for the reefs of Lana’i, Moloka’i and West Maui.
• Olowalu’s Hawaiian population and marine life are being placed at imminent risk of irreversible injury due to the proposed location of the “temporary” toxic waste landfill for 400,000 tons of the most toxic, lethal debris from the Lahaina wildfire disaster.
• The site is part of a State Conservation District with rich cultural and archeological sites and marine life subject to numerous protections under federal, state, and county laws and regulations. A significant archeological site exists at the landfill site even though the County / State claimed there were none.
