Hawaii HB965 establishes a rebate program for microplastic filtration systems in washing machines to reduce microplastic pollution.
Hawaii HB965 creates a rebate program to encourage the purchase and installation of microplastic filtration systems in residential and commercial washing machines. The program aims to reduce microplastic pollution by capturing synthetic fibers released during laundry, which otherwise enter wastewater and oceans. The Department of Land and Natural Resources will administer the program, offering rebates for eligible purchases and installations. The rebates are funded by appropriations from the state's general revenues and the water resource management fund.
