To initiate a pilot project working with relevant government agencies, private entities, individuals, and other North Kohala agricultural producer groups to secure agricultural water from alternative sources generally located in the region between Hoea and Kokoiki, but could be extended to other areas. The water will be available to farmers and ranchers. The project will continue to seek and implement alternate water sources for at least the next several years.
