URGING ALL ENTITIES AGAINST USING MORE THAN ONE MILLION GALLONS OF WATER PER YEAR FOR RECREATIONAL OR ORNAMENTAL PURPOSES.

This Senate Resolution (SR 203) urges all entities - including businesses, organizations, and government agencies - to voluntarily limit potable water use for recreational or ornamental purposes (like golf courses or decorative fountains) to no more than one million gallons per year per permit. It specifically excludes uses relying solely on recycled water and does not create enforceable law. The resolution responds to Hawaii’s drought conditions and water conservation needs but lacks legal force. It directs certified copies to water management and health authorities for awareness.
