Public Scoping for HELCO Power Line Relocation

Hawaiʻi Electric Light Company (HELCO), in consultation with Hawaiʻi Volcanoes National Park (HVNP), is in the process of planning how to relocate and upgrade existing utility poles and power lines associated with a portion of the HELCO 3400 Line located within the HVNP. The project area is located within HVNP, which is a unit of the National Park Service (NPS), and includes an area between Piʻi Mauna Drive and the park boundary near Old Volcano Road. The project is considered Phase 3 of HELCO's efforts to upgrade and harden the 3400 Line which spans from Puna to the park's Kaʻū entrance. Phase 1 and 2 included an area between the Kīlauea Switching Station outside the Kaʻū-side boundary of the park to Piʻi Mauna Drive and was completed in 2020.
