Federal officials said yesterday their preferred plan among six alternatives is to relocate the historic structures to a site within the Kipahulu coastal area of the park.
The structures, which have to be removed from their current site because of a new landowner, will be called the Kipahulu Conservation Center.
Federal officials said the park has agreed to accept as a donation the house "Argonauta" and the writer's cottage, provided that all costs for their relocation and restoration as well as an endowment for annual maintenance are raised by the Historic Hawai'i Foundation.
The deadline on comments for the plan is July 26. For more information, call Don Reeser at 808-572-4401.
Copies of the environmental assessment may be reviewed at the public libraries in Wailuku, Kahului and Hana. The environmental assessment is also available on the park Web site at www.nps.gov/hale.
