REQUESTING THE CITY AND COUNTY OF HONOLULU TO CONSIDER RENAMING THE HONOULIULI WASTEWATER TREATMENT PLANT TO A NON-HAWAIIAN NAME.

This bill is a Senate Concurrent Resolution that asks the City and County of Honolulu to consider renaming the Honouliuli Wastewater Treatment Plant to a name that is not of Native Hawaiian origin. The resolution is based on concerns that the traditional Hawaiian name "Honouliuli" may carry unintended negative associations with a sewage facility, potentially affecting how residents in the area are perceived. It requests that the city explore alternative names while consulting with community stakeholders, including Native Hawaiian organizations and local residents, during the renaming process. The resolution also directs the city to report back to the Legislature within one year on the progress of any renaming efforts, including proposed names and community feedback.
