A BILL FOR AN ACT
RELATING TO IMPOUNDED VESSELS.
BE IT ENACTED BY THE LEGISLATURE OF THE STATE OF HAWAII:
SECTION 1. Section 200-16, Hawaii Revised Statutes, is amended by amending subsection (c) to read as follows:
"(c) An unauthorized vessel may be
impounded by the department at the sole [cost and] risk of the owner of
the vessel, if the vessel is not removed after the seventy-two-hour period or
if during that period the vessel is removed and remoored in the harbor or
mooring or anchorage area or any other state harbor or mooring or anchorage
area without a use permit. The owner of the vessel shall be solely
responsible for all costs of the impoundment and the disposal of the vessel.
Any proceeds resulting from the impoundment of the unauthorized vessel shall be
used first to pay the costs of impoundment and disposal and then to pay any
mooring fees due. If the proceeds resulting from the impoundment are
inadequate to pay for all costs and mooring fees due, the owner of the vessel
shall remain liable for the outstanding costs and mooring fees."
SECTION 2. Statutory material to be repealed is bracketed and stricken. New statutory material is underscored.
SECTION 3. This Act shall take effect upon its approval.
