Act 103, on 06/05/2026 (Gov. Msg. No. 1203).
Summary
The bill permits the use of fine‑mesh, including monofilament, netting to shield vulnerable plants from the coconut rhinoceros beetle, an invasive pest threatening Hawaii’s agriculture, culture, and ecosystems. It requires the Department of Agriculture and Biosecurity to create rules governing the sale, distribution, and specifications of such nets, ensuring they do not harm birds or beneficial insects. This expands authority previously limited to bird‑keeping netting.
