EXTENDED hakaahO point, is DelHB
formed across the harbor entrance,
which may become a serious matter
II allowed TO go on forming unchecked.
Yesterday a stream of muddy water
extending from the extreme end of the
point to the stone retaining wall on
the Eva side of the narbor entrance
showed where this bar. was forming.
When the harbor was dredged and
the sand pumped on to the point no
retaining wall was put in on the Wal
kiki side to hold the dredgings, with
the consequence that the water run
ming off carried with 1t tons Of sand
into the shadows between the point
and the reef. Now, in every period OF
rough weather. such as was had yes
terday, this loose sand is churned up
and carried by the current around the
end OF the point and into the channel,
the stone wall on the other side break
ing the current and allowing the sand
TO be deposited where 1t will be most
in the-way.
In addition to this tons and tons of
loose sand are being blown from the
filled point back into the harbor. Where
there had been five or six feet OF water
before the dredging makai Of the Myr-
tie boat house. there are now less than
t,vo faet WITH the nrosnect NJ hecom.
