Hawaii Construction
Stormwater Inspections
Hawaii's construction stormwater coverage falls under HAR Chapter 11-55, Appendix C, administered by the Department of Health Clean Water Branch. The permit covers construction activities disturbing one or more acres and requires particular attention to protecting sensitive near-shore marine environments and coral reefs. Hawaii's tropical climate with intense rainfall events demands robust erosion and sediment controls.
