Hawaii Superferry Special Session Update

The Hawaii Superferry is looking to get a second chance at sailing while the state performs an environmental impact study.

The Lingle Administration recently proposed operating restrictions and now has officially called the special session into order. The state legislature will meet to begin working on the bill that would allow the Hawaii Superferry to run while the state conducts it’s impact study.

The battle for and against the Hawaii Superferry continues dividing the islands amongst themselves as well as dividing the islands against each other. Big Island residents are now voicing their opinions on the vessel that will set sail for Kawaihae on the Big Island starting in 2009.

Meanwhile, for those of you who commute down Nimitz in and out of Honolulu, the Superferry is in plain sight, sitting idle at the docks.
