Haw. Code R. § 11-270-65 - Research, development, and demonstration permits
(a) The director may issue a research,
development, and demonstration permit for any hazardous waste treatment

Any such permit shall include such terms and conditions as will assure

performance capabilities of the technology or process and the effects of such
technology or process on human health and the environment, and
(3) Shall include such requirements as the
director deems necessary to protect human health and the environment
(including, but not limited to, requirements regarding monitoring, operation,
financial responsibility, closure, and remedial action), and such requirements
as the director deems necessary regarding testing and providing of information
to the director with respect to the operation of the facility.
(b) For the purpose of expediting
review and issuance of permits under this section, the director may, consistent
with the protection of human health and the environment, modify or waive permit
application and permit issuance requirements in chapters 11-271 and 11-270
except that there may be no modification or waiver of regulations regarding
financial responsibility (including insurance) or of procedures regarding
public participation.

director may order an immediate termination of all operations at the facility
at any time he determines that termination is necessary to protect human health
and the environment.
