Description:The leeward coasts of the islands of Molokai and Maui have been surveyed for shallow-water sand resources. Sediment deposits of 4.0 x 10^9 cubic yards were discovered using seismic reflection techniques. Twenty-four surface sediment samples collected during the survey indicate taht much of the sediment is either finer or coarser than sand size. This reconnaissance survey discovered 5 areas where sand volume and quality indicate that detailed surveying and mapping are desirable.
