Informing the Legislature that on May 27, 2026, the Governor signed the following bill into law: SB2398 SD2 HD2 CD1 (ACT 045).

This bill is a formal notification from the Governor to the Hawaii Legislature confirming that SB2398 was signed into law on May 27, 2026. The legislation requires the Board of Water Supply to publish a map of its service areas and a list of restricted areas on its website by January 1, 2029, without needing to provide detailed parcel-by-parcel data or specify utility assets. Additionally, the board must respond to water availability requests for small residential properties within 45 days, and these determinations will remain valid for 90 days unless the board specifies otherwise. The bill also allows the board to include a disclaimer stating that the published map data is preliminary and does not guarantee actual water availability.
