HI SB3088

Replaces "man-made" with "human-caused" hazards throughout emergency management statutes to reflect current terminology standards.

Expands definitions of "disaster," "emergency," "hazard," "local state of emergency," and "state of emergency" to explicitly include protection and damage to the environment alongside existing protections for life and property.

Adds "mitigation" as an explicit emergency management function the governor may support, alongside preparation, response, and recovery efforts.

Modifies county emergency management agencies' responsibilities to make them responsible for identifying, operating, and coordinating emergency shelters with private and nonprofit organizations, rather than merely identifying suitable locations.

Allows unspent emergency management funding under $2,500,000 to roll over to the next fiscal year to support current and future emergencies and disasters, replacing prior language limiting rollover purposes.
