SB1506

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

This bill amends Hawaii's statutes to establish a ten-year statute of repose for professional land surveyors. It prohibits the commencement of a civil action against a professional land surveyor if ten years have elapsed since the completion of a contract or final payment for land surveying services. This change aims to protect land surveyors from legal actions after a specified period, similar to protections already in place for architects and engineers. The statute of repose takes effect on July 1, 2025.
