Lahaina National Heritage Area Study Act

This bill requires the U.S. Secretary of the Interior to study whether Lahaina, Hawaii (specifically the census-designated place in Maui County) should become a National Heritage Area - a federal program recognizing places with significant cultural or historical resources. The study will assess if designating Lahaina as such is suitable and feasible, involving coordination with Maui County, Hawaii state officials, historic preservation groups, and tourism entities. It does not create the heritage area itself but evaluates the potential for future designation. The bill directly affects Lahaina residents, local historic preservation efforts, and tourism stakeholders in the area.
