Kalaeloa, Hawai'i
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Kalaeloa is the modern name given to the former Barbers Point Naval Air Station after the military base was listed for closing in 1993 and subsequently transferred to the State of Hawaiʻi. The geographical name, Ka lae loa, means "long point" in Hawaiian and is the native name for what is now called Barbers Point on Oʻahu.
In 1993 the state legislature established the Barbers Point Naval Air Station Redevelopment Commission (BPNAS-RC) to guide the redevelopment of the former military facilities comprising an airfield and 3700 acres (15 km²) of land along the south shore of Oʻahu between the towns of ʻEwa, Kapolei, and Campbell Industrial Park. On July 1, 2002, the Hawaii Community Development Authority became the redevelopment authority for Kalaeloa. The former Naval Air Station runways and associated facilities are now Kalaeloa Airport.
Barbers Point Housing is that part of Kalaeloa retained temporarily by the U.S. Navy for housing. As of the 2000 Census, the military housing area had a total population of just 67.
