HRS §342L-20
How this law affects other local rules
This section says that any state or county law or rule that conflicts with this chapter is invalid. However, counties can still make their own rules about underground storage tanks, as long as those rules do not conflict with the state department's rules. If a county rule conflicts with a state rule, the county rule is void.
