Hawaii SB2941 prohibits the sale, rental, and distribution of disposable bodyboards to protect marine ecosystems.

Hawaii SB2941 aims to protect marine ecosystems by prohibiting the sale, rental, and distribution of disposable bodyboards. These boards, often made of polystyrene, can disintegrate and pollute reefs, shorelines, and marine environments. Violators face fines starting at $100 for a first offense, increasing with subsequent violations. The Act defines "disposable bodyboard" as a buoyant rectangular object over twenty-three inches in length with a polystyrene foam core used for water recreation.
