Re: Hawai'i Superferry - Chapter 4
Per what you posted in #520.
§343-5 Applicability and requirements. (a) Except as otherwise provided, an environmental assessment shall be required for actions that:
"(1) Propose the use of state or county lands or the use of state or county funds, other than funds to be used for feasibility or planning studies for possible future programs or projects that the agency has not approved, adopted, or funded, or funds to be used for the acquisition of unimproved real property; provided that the agency shall consider environmental factors and available alternatives in its feasibility or planning studies; provided further that an environmental assessment for proposed uses under section 205-2(d)(9) or [205-4.5(a)(13)] shall only be required pursuant to section 205-5(b);"
Does NCL/YB/Matson not use state or county lands? So doesn't that subject them to an EIS?
And the 40 million for HSF use. Is it exclusive or just simply HSF being the only sole user? I know it sounds like semantics but it makes all the difference in the world. If Clone Ferry comes to town, does HSF have sole use of the barges?
