MINOR

The bill was converted from a House Draft (HD1) to a Senate Draft (SD1) version, primarily changing the effective date from immediate approval to July 1, 2050, and adding metadata fields like sponsor names and timestamps. The substantive policy language regarding sewer transmission line acceptance by counties remains largely unchanged, though some formatting and bracketed text were modified during the drafting process.

Scope change

The bill's scope remains the same, requiring counties to accept sewer transmission lines servicing Hawaiian Home Lands under specific conditions, but the effective date was significantly delayed.

TIMELINE

The effective date was changed from immediate upon approval to July 1, 2050, which significantly delays when the new requirements take effect.

TECHNICAL

Metadata fields including sponsor names (Joseph Brown, Ainoa Naniole), timestamps, and revision numbers were added to the document header.

Some formatting and bracketed text in the statutory language were adjusted during the drafting process, though the core policy requirements remain consistent.
