2007 HAWAII STATE MATHCOUNTS COMPETITIONWashington Middle School knocked off Iolani
School and Punahou School to take first place inthe 24th Hawaii State MATHCOUNTSCompetition on March 10, 2007, atKamehameha Schools. This is an extraordinaryfeat because the Team Award has either gone toIolani or Punahou since MATHCOUNTS startedin Hawaii in 1984. The private schools had a lockon the first place title, but this time WashingtonMiddle School armed with a team of RichardChang, Julia Chen, Jonathan Huang, and NaokiShigeta could not be beaten by the privateschools. Their proud coaches are Cynthia Chingand Lance Iida.
MATHCOUNTS is a national math competitionfor 6th, 7th and 8th graders. Students competeindividually in the Sprint Round solving 30 mathproblems in 40 minutes. Next comes the TargetRound where students try to solve eight prob-lems within approximately 30 minutes. The TeamRound finishes the written portion of the compe-tition. In this round students work together solv-ing 10 problems in 20 minutes.
TEAM AWARDSWashington Middle School was followed by
second place Iolani School with team membersTeresa Ou, Sam Savitz, Dustin Shigaki, TracyYoung, and coaches Li Ann Wada, AnnetteMatsumoto, and Larry Teske. Third place wentto the Punahou team of William Chen, Alda Lam,Nicholas Lee, Sarah Loui, and coach Todd ChowHoy. In fourth place was Waiakea IntermediateSchool with team members Mark Seu, KatherineTorigoe, Liann Yamashita, Erin Yoshida, andcoaches Arlene Cabalce, Tanya Lee, and MichaelMcCumskey. Fifth place went to the MililaniMiddle school team of William Gaul, MelissaHamada, Kimberly Tatsuyama, Amy Yagi, andcoaches Geri Hamada and Christopher Baxa. Insixth place was Parker School with team mem-bers Daniel Gregg, Kimo Hon, Mary Kamitaki,Annie Sturges, and coach Chitra Seshan. Tenfinalist teams from the Chapter competitionsthrough out Hawaii participated in this event.Clearly, three of the top six teams were publicschools showing their proficiency in mathemat-ics.
INDIVIDUAL AWARDSMost important are the individual perfor-
mances. The public schools did very well. Firstplace as a result of their total scores in the writ-ten individual testing of the Sprint and TargetRounds went to Richard Chang of Washington.He was followed by second place William Gaul ofMililani, third place Kimo Hon of Parker, fourthplace Mark Seu of Waiakea, fifth place NaokiShigeta of Washington, sixth place William Chenof Punahou, seventh place Dustin Shigaki of
Iolani, eighth place Hao Chen of Iolani, ninthplace Sam Savitz of Iolani, and tenth place SarahLoui of Punahou.
These ten Mathletes qualified to compete inthe final Countdown Round to determine whichfour would represent Hawaii at the NationalMATHCOUNTS Competition on May 11, 2007 inFort Worth, Texas.
The Countdown Round is a fast-paced, oralcompetition for the top-scoring individuals. Inthis round, pairs of Mathletes compete againsteach other and the clock to solve problems.Calculators are not permitted. The pairing startswith the ninth and tenth place individuals. Threequestions are read to each pair of Mathletes, onequestion at a time, and the Mathlete who scoresthe most points (not necessarily 2 out of 3) cap-tures the place, progresses to the next round andchallenges the next highest-ranked student. Thisprocedure continues until the fourth-rankedMathlete and her/his opponent compete. For thefinal four rounds, the first student to correctlyanswer three questions advances. The
Countdown Round proceeds until a first-placeindividual is identified.
The top four winners of the Countdown Roundand going to the National are first, Naoki Shigetaof Washington, second, Richard Chang ofWashington, third, William Gaul of Mililani, andFourth, Kimo Hon of Parker. The official HawaiiState Team Coach, Cynthia Ching ofWashington, will accompany them.

Meeting Notes for February 9thCharles Penhallow won the game of skill and
donated his kitty to the Peter Burk scholarshipfund.
Speaker: Melissa McFerrin, ManagerCommunity Relations, Hawaii Super Ferry;“Hawaii Super Ferry.” The first ferry waslaunched about two weeks ago and is 98% com-plete. Dock and sea trails are starting. The ferrywill arrive in Honolulu from Mobile, Alabama inMay. The second ferry will arrive in 2009. Twoyears ago when they set their passenger farerates at $50 per person they were half the cost of
air fare. Today with the airline fare war that isn’tthe case.
Hawaii is one of the only archipelagos in theworld that doesn’t have a ferry system. We havebeen completely dependent on air travel and theferry will now provide a welcome alternative.Advantages are obviously you can bring you carand all your stuff. Anything in or on top of the caris included in the fare price for the car.Companies will be able to do business on a dailybasis. It will be good for neighbor islandersbecause they travel more often to Oahu for busi-ness, education or medical trips. The ferry will bedrive on and drive off not roll on roll off. Containeror trailers cannot be rolled on to the ferry andthen someone else pick up at the other end. Adrive must accompany the vehicle.
Ferry schedule will be: depart Oahu 6:30 am,arrive Maui 9:30 am, depart Maui 11:00 am,arrive Oahu 2:00 pm, depart Oahu 3:00 pm,arrive Kaua’i 6:00 pm, depart Kaua’i 7:30 pm,arrive Oahu 10:30 pm.
Ms. McFerrin’s presentation can be heard atthe EAH WEB site.
Meeting Notes for February 23rd Speaker: Damian Balinowski - Hawaii News
Director for ClearChannel Radio Program;“Emergency Radio Broadcasts for Hawaii?” Mr.Balinowski presented a detailed time line of whathappened and didn’t happen on October 15,2006 the day of the 6.7 magnitude earthquakenear Puak on the Big Island. He reported onthe changes that are happening in Hawaii’semergency broadcast radio system. Some sta-tion actually had emergency generators for theirproduction studios, but didn’t have for theirtransmission antennas. They learned that it isbetter for emergency services to report or com-municate with the public even if they have noth-ing to report. They found that cellphone textmessaging is better then trying to use voice, i.e.,text messages got through while voice did not.This had also been learned in New Orleans. Anattempt was made to send a message via theemergency radio broadcast system, but themessage was not received at most radio sta-tions. He reported that EAH member Jose Dizonfrom HECO had to personally visit their station todeliver the HECO update report. Communicationto the radio station was the biggest challenge.Police, Fire, HECO Board of Water Supply could-n’t communicate to the radio station because ofthe amount of phone calls into the station. NewHot line phones are now being installed. Theinternet stayed up. CNN Pipeline was workingand Damian was able to put down mainlandnews that was covering earthquake. Damian isin favor of only using the emergency sirens whenthere an immediate danger to the public. In thiscase the worst was already over.
Mr. Balinowski’s presentation can be heard atthe EAH WEB site.

The use of concrete, stone and wood elementsgive the garden a sturdy foundation only to be softenedwith the beautiful flowers, grass, trees and pebbles to forma unique living outdoor space that can be admired and usedby the residents, while allowing a sense of country for theadjoining properties to admire.

KNOW YOUR ASCE HISTORYby C.S. Papacostas
BRING IN YET ANOTHER EXPERTIn August 1906, Gov. G. R. Carter ordered
adoption of all changes recommended byCalifornia engineer H. C. Kellogg for the Dam atNu`uanu Reservoir No. 4 (see March 2007 arti-cle), despite expressed misgivings from both C.S. Holloway and J. H. Howland, the Territory’sSupt. and Asst. Supt. of Public works. Kellogg’sadditional cost estimate of $25,000 was doubledby Holloway to account for the legal requirementof employing “citizen labor” that was more costlythan that used on the Wahiawa dam by the out-side expert.
Interestingly, Kellogg had accepted the assign-ment and sailed to Hawai`i without a clear under-standing of what it entailed!
“I do not know exactly what I am expected todo ... I only know that there is a dam here knownas the Nuuanu dam, and I am to pass upon it asto its safety. The Superintendent of Public Workscabled me to come and I came,” he told theHawaiian Star [HS] on July 6. According to theHS, he had actually “thought he was to settle adispute over specifications, to determine the onlycontroversy about sluicing. He expected to stayhere during the four days of the Alameda’s stayand was greatly surprised to find that he had toinvestigate the whole dam and report on its safe-ty” for a mere $500.
In addition, he was also called by the Territory’sAttorney General as an expert witness on anunrelated, but important, water rights court casethat involved a plan by the Palolo Land &Improvement Co. to divert water in that valleyagainst the wishes of taro farmers who would bedeprived of its use [Evening Bulletin, EB 7/21].Based on a subsequent Territorial SupremeCourt decision, both sides to the dispute pre-pared interrogatories for Kellogg to answer fromthe coast via Ed. Tedford, a notary public inSanta Ana [EB, 7/30].
Under a threat by the Governor to cancel theNu`uanu dam contract, Holloway and contractorL. M. Whitehouse agreed to apply a provisionthat allowed for new classes of work required bythe government, such as the rock fill downstreamof the core wall, to be done by the contractor atreasonable cost plus a profit of fifteen per cent[HS, EB 8/27]. Resuming construction alsorequired new engineering calculations byHowland and field engineer/inspector C. H.Smith to carry out Kellogg’s plans, new equip-ment such as a rock crusher, resolution of sever-al grievances on both sides, and the rehiring oflabor that was let go during Kellogg’s investiga-tion [HS, 9/5].
On Oct. 29, both the HS and the EB carriedalarming stories attributing to dam critic W. R.Patterson and one of his allies, Jos. I. Whittle, apainter by trade, claims that the construction ofthe dam deviated significantly from Kellogg’splans and was shoddily carried out. In response,the Governor related the story of the boy whocried wolf!
Unfortunately for those building the dam, as aresult of a downpour in late Nov. “a section offlume was washed away... the posts supportingthe flume near the center basin and above thekoa wall were undermined, and gave way, withthe result that that section of the flume collapsed[EB, 11/30].” Another storm in Dec. caused fur-ther damage to the works and served as a jump-ing point for Patterson to again raise safetyissues, adding that Kellogg had told him off therecord that the dam was put at the wrong site toboot [EB 12/26]. A few days later he declaredthat “yesterday morning the new flume whichthey put up instead of the one which was carried

such as the UK and Norway have passed theirpeak and are now in decline. Other predictionshave the peak occurring about 2050. Dr. Zapkatalked about the energy transition or the numberof years up to 30 years for the World to adjust tothe decline of petroleum production and changeto alternative energy sources. Ms. Horner talkedabout what happens to people in the EnergyChange model. People can choose to do noth-ing. But most places are moving toward changeof our energy picture. She explained there fourparts to change. First is Understanding theChallenges. Second is future energy visioning –what do you want the next generation to be?Third is action, what can an individual in their pro-fessional or personnel life do? Developing

vide advise on any developments towards a pos-sible State Building Code. For Honolulu County,adoption of 2003 IBC is pending approval fromHonolulu City Council.
State Building Code: DAGS is in the processof modernizing the building code for State pro-jects. A multi-agency task group comprised ofspecialists in his or her discipline is working toupdate requirements for all phases and disci-plines in construction. Gary Chock, SEAOHPresident, will serve on the committee.
A Legislative Committee: Bills with influence tothe structural engineering profession such asHB93, SB795 are currently being reviewed bythe respective legislative branch. Upon legisla-tive approval, the bills will be forwarded to a con-ference committee.
DAGS Specification: The concrete specifica-tions are under review for modifications.Recommendations were reviewed by SEAOHBoard of Directors and Officers.
away in the preceding storm, was demolished bythe water. Practically the entire toe in front of thedam has been carried away, so that now all theyhave of the dam is the core wall and the supplypipe [EB 12/31].” He also claimed that he hadbeen offered a bribe from the Attorney General’sDepartment to leave the territory but that herefused to accept it, and promised a “sensation-al” report to the legislature that was to meet inFebruary.
ASCE History, from page 8
During Jan. 1907, a lack of sufficient rainfallpermitted the contractor to use the more costlycarting method of transporting fill material to thesite instead of fluming and a request by the Dept.of Public Works to construct a new flume for thehydraulic placement of soil when the rainsreturned went unheeded. This precipitated amajor controversy to which the Governor againresponded by threatening to suspend the worksand cancel the contract [EB, HS 1/23/1907].Holloway and Howland, however, prevailed uponhim to relent [EB, HS 1/24/1907] because, as theGovernor put it, “the very vitals of the dam wereexposed and would if further construction wereto be stopped, the work as it now stands wouldbe subject to damage by further storms [HS1/24].” A “heavy rain” on Feb. 2 did little damagebut a “record-breaking cloudburst” on Feb. 11[EB 2/11] took off about 60 yards of the core walland undermined “a portion of the railroad leadingup to Lulumahu valley [HS 2/11].”
Anticipating a request for an appropriation ofthe additional funds needed to implement thechanges to the project, the Legislature appointeda joint House and Senate Committee to investi-gate the Nu`uanu dam [HS 2/21; EB 2/25]. Thejoint committee almost immediately decided tobring in yet another expert to help the investiga-tion: James Dix Schuyler agreed to take on thejob for a lump sum of $3,000. He was scheduledto arrive from San Francisco by the end of March.
As discussed in various contexts previously(see Sept. 2006), Schuyler was originally broughtto Hawai`i in 1889 to work on B. F. Dillingham’sirrigation projects. He came back in 1903 todesign the Wahiawa Dam that was completedunder Kellogg’s supervision in 1906 (see Jan.2007).
