AI Summary

  • Removes references to sugar and pineapple industries from the Hawaii State Planning Act's agricultural objectives, replacing them with a focus on "growth and development of diversified agriculture throughout the State."

  • Eliminates the former objective requiring "viability of Hawaii's sugar and pineapple industries" and the entire section containing priority guidelines for supporting those specific industries.

  • Consolidates agricultural economy objectives into two primary goals: diversified agriculture growth and agriculture as a dynamic component of Hawaii's economic and social well-being.

  • Renumbers and reorganizes economic priority guidelines sections to reflect the removal of sugar and pineapple-specific provisions, while maintaining guidelines for general agricultural development, water use, energy, and the information industry.

  • Effective date: June 30, 3000 (appears to contain a typographical error, as this date is in the distant future).
