H.C.R. 152 Summary

• Urges the Department of Land and Natural Resources and City and County of Honolulu to expedite construction for expansion and improvement of wash-down stations at Maunalua Bay in Hawaii Kai, Oahu.

• Notes that the original four wash-down stations were relocated due to pavement deterioration and Department of Health regulations prohibiting water runoff from draining directly into the ocean.

• The new wash-down stations can only accommodate three boats (usually only two in use at once), lack proper lighting, and are located in a high-traffic vehicle area, creating safety and congestion concerns.

• Identifies that expansion of the wash-down stations is hindered because some of the proposed expansion land is owned by the City and County of Honolulu while the Department of Land and Natural Resources owns other portions.

• Requires certified copies of the resolution be transmitted to the Chairperson of the Board of Land and Natural Resources, the Mayor, and Council Chairperson of the City and County of Honolulu.
