Hawaii HB124 establishes a ten-year statute of repose for professional land surveyors, prohibiting civil actions after this period.

Hawaii HB124 amends Chapter 464 of the Hawaii Revised Statutes to introduce a ten-year statute of repose for professional land surveyors. This means that no civil action can be brought against a land surveyor if ten years have passed since the completion of a contract or final payment for land surveying work. This change aims to protect land surveyors from being held liable for actions taken more than a decade ago, aligning their legal protections with those of other design professionals.
