Fast Tracking Geothermal? 
(Honolulu Civil Beat - Blog)

A bill being introduced in the Hawai'i State House by Rep. Denny Coffman could speed up the exploration of geothermal resources on the Big Island and Maui.

A hearing is set for House Bill 2690 on Thursday at 9:30 at the State Capitol - conference room 325.

The bill would, in part, exclude geothermal exploration from an EIS or an environmental assessment.
