Subject: Records Request for Hawaii County Planning Department: Approval of Hawaii County Planning Department for PGV Repower Project [#1641]
Aloha,
Pursuant to the public records law, I would like to request the following records in electronic format sent to my email address.
PGV's application to modify their State of Hawaii Department of Health Air Pollution permit claims that "In January of 2024, PGV Repower Project (Project) was approved under the authority of the County of Hawaii Planning Department".
1. Please provide copies of any documents that say the County of Hawaii "approves" the Project.
2. Please provide copies of issued County of Hawaii building permits for the 46MW Repower Project power plant.
Mahalo,
Sara Steiner
