RELATING TO INTER-ISLAND FERRY SERVICE.

SB 219 clarifies that harbor use fees cannot be waived for vessels providing inter-island ferry service within Maui County. This directly affects ferry operators who would otherwise qualify for fee waivers under current policy. The bill's key provision explicitly states that inter-island ferry service is excluded from fee waiver eligibility, ensuring these operators pay standard harbor fees. The measure focuses solely on defining fee requirements for this specific service type.
