Haw. Code R. § 11-216-5 - Requirements for accessibility to public buildings, facilities, and sites - new construction

(a) All areas of newly designed or newly constructed public buildings, facilities, and sites shall comply with this chapter.
(b) Where a public building, facility, or site contains more than one use, each portion shall comply with the applicable requirements for that use.
(c) Full compliance with the requirements of this chapter is not required when an entity can demonstrate that it is structurally impracticable to meet the requirements. Full compliance will be considered structurally impracticable only in those rare circumstances when the unique characteristics of terrain prevent the incorporation of accessibility features.
(d) If full compliance with this chapter would be structurally impracticable, compliance with this chapter is required to the extent that it is not structurally impracticable. In that case, any portion of the facility that can be made accessible shall be made accessible to the extent that it is not structurally impracticable.
