HRS §200-4.6
Alternate access to state boating facilities
This rule lets boats with a valid commercial use permit use a state small boat harbor or ramp when unsafe wind or sea conditions block the normal shoreline route. The operator must tell the department ahead of time and follow local directions. This does not change normal permitted use.

The statute, as written — Alternate access to state boating facilities; rules
The department shall adopt rules to allow vessels holding a valid ocean recreation management area commercial use permit to use a state small boat harbor or boat launching ramp when unsafe wind and sea conditions would prevent safe access to the shoreline through a designated ingress or egress zone. The vessel operator or master shall give the department prior notice of the presence or threat of such conditions and shall be subject to local direction and control as necessary to avoid conflict with other users of the facility. Use of a state boating facility in accordance with this section shall not affect the permittee's right to use such boating facilities in the absence of such conditions in order to provision a vessel as permitted by law.
