description

Summary

Significance: This was the last building erected by the EPC in their Industrial Center, in 1956. It was built to store the fibrous cane material, called bagasse, left over from the milling process, which in turn was burned as fuel to power the mill and to furnish most of the plantation's electricity needs. It represents one aspect of the self-sufficiency that was a goal of Hawaii's sugar plantations.
