Hawaii HB654 modifies the definition of "special management area minor permit" under Hawaii Revised Statutes. The bill specifies that such permits now authorize developments valued up to $1,000,000 with no substantial adverse environmental or ecological effects, and constructions of single-family residences under 7,500 square feet on shoreline parcels. This change aims to streamline permitting for certain low-impact developments and constructions.
