The ordinance, as written (Maui County) — Fill materials
A copy, taken August 21, 2026. The version published by Maui County is the one that governs, and it may have changed since. Check it before relying on anything here.
The fill materials may consist of rock, gravel, sand, or soil, or a mixture thereof,
but shall not contain any debris or organic matter. The fill material shall be spread
in a series of layers each not exceeding six inches in thickness after compaction.
After the fill material is placed and compacted, the compaction density shall be a
minimum of 90 percent of the maximum density as determined by the modified soil compaction
test, designated as AASHO T180-57 or ASTM D1557-58T tests in "Standard Specifications
for Highway Materials and Methods of Sampling and Testing," published by the American
Association of State Officials, 1961. These requirements may be waived by the director
if the permittee submits an engineer's report stating that the required compaction
density can be met with a thicker layer of fill, or substantiating why the required
90 percent compaction density cannot be obtained with the fill material to be used.
