Hawaii SB439 proposes to allow the Board of Land and Natural Resources to charge fees to nonresidents visiting state parks and trails.

Hawaii SB439 amends Chapter 184 of the Hawaii Revised Statutes to allow the Board of Land and Natural Resources to impose user fees on nonresidents visiting state parks and trails. The board must conduct studies to determine which parks and trails will have fees. The fees will be deposited into the state parks special fund. The board can adjust fees for inflation and has the authority to change or repeal fees. The bill does not affect any rights, duties, penalties, or proceedings that occurred before its effective date.
