SB359

Hawaii SB359 amends definitions for leaf blowers and weed whackers in state statutes.

Hawaii SB359 amends Section 342F-30.8 of the Hawaii Revised Statutes by updating the definitions of "leaf blower" and "weed whacker." The bill specifies that a leaf blower is any machine used to blow leaves, dirt, or other debris off various surfaces, while a weed whacker is a yard tool that cuts or trims grass and vegetation. These definitions apply to residential zones, which include residential districts, apartment districts, and business mixed-use districts. The bill takes effect upon approval.
