From the Gerald F. Borrmann (Northern California Gentleman) Collection.

In 1898, the Oahu Sugar Company established a large plantation in the arid land east of Honolulu, with newly sunk wells providing the necessary water. The 10,000 acre plantation would operate until 1995. In 1997, soil sampling at the company’s former pesticide mixing plants uncovered high concentrations of pentachlorophenol and dioxin. Environmental restoration of the site is ongoing.
