HCR 6 Hawaii House · 2025 Regular Session

AUTHORIZING THE ISSUANCE OF A TWENTY-FIVE-YEAR TERM, NON-EXCLUSIVE EASEMENT COVERING A PORTION OF STATE SUBMERGED LANDS AT EWA BEACH, EWA, OAHU, FOR A SEAWALL, AND FOR USE, REPAIR, AND MAINTENANCE OF THE IMPROVEMENTS CONSTRUCTED THEREON.

HCR 6 authorizes a 25-year non-exclusive easement for Poni LLC to maintain a seawall on state submerged lands at Ewa Beach, Oahu. The easement resolves an encroachment where the seawall (built in 1966) now sits on state land due to shoreline migration, covering a 165-square-foot area adjacent to Poni LLC’s property. Poni LLC will pay the state’s fair market value for the easement via independent appraisal and cover $42 monthly rent during the process. This procedural resolution formalizes an existing Board of Land and Natural Resources approval to resolve the encroachment without altering land ownership.
