HB 2065 Hawaii House · 2026 Regular Session

RELATING TO WATER POLLUTION.

HB 2065 allocates general funds into the Water Pollution Control Revolving Fund to create more low-interest loans for eligible projects. The bill directly affects municipalities, businesses, or organizations seeking funding for water pollution prevention or cleanup efforts, such as wastewater treatment upgrades. Its key mechanism is using state funds to expand the revolving loan pool, allowing borrowers to repay funds that are then reused for future projects. This provides concrete financial support for water infrastructure improvements without creating new permanent spending.
