H.C.R. NO. 72 Summary

• Requests the Stadium Authority to identify and develop areas within the Stadium Development District to serve as a permanent shipping container storage and lay down facility for Pearl Harbor.

• Facility would function as backup infrastructure if an emergency renders Honolulu Harbor unusable, supporting critical resupply operations that handle over 12,000,000 tons of cargo annually including 3,000 tons of food daily.

• References a 2015 joint U.S. Coast Guard and State test demonstrating Pearl Harbor's equipment and facilities can only handle a fraction of Honolulu Harbor's cargo processing capacity, necessitating additional facilities.

• Requires the developed areas to withstand structural requirements necessary for permanent shipping container operations.

• Directs certified copies be transmitted to Joint Base Pearl Harbor-Hickam Command Master Chief, the Governor, and the Stadium Authority Chairperson.
