Haw. Code R. § 11-451-22 - Record requirements after the decision document has been finalized

(a) Addition of documents to the administrative record. The department may add documents to the administrative record after the decision document selecting the response action has been signed if the documents concern a portion of a response action decision that the decision document does not address or defers to be decided at a later date.

(b) Additional public comment periods. The department may hold additional public comment periods or extend the time for the submission of public comment after a decision document has been signed on any issues concerning selection of the response action. All additional comments submitted during such comment periods that are responsive to the request, and any response to these comments, along with documents supporting the request and any final decision with respect to the issue, shall be placed in the administrative record.

(c) Consideration of additional public comments. The department shall consider comments submitted by interested persons after the close of the public comment period only to the extent that the comments contain significant information not contained elsewhere in the administrative record which could not have been submitted during the public comment period and which substantially supports the need to significantly alter the response action. All such comments and any responses thereto shall be placed in the administrative record.
