Hawaii: Agricultural ground preparation versus farm buildings and roads

Hawaii DOH’s Appendix C discussion distinguishes clearing solely for growing crops from construction of agricultural buildings and roads. The crop-growing exclusion does not automatically extend to related construction work.

Sitework Estimate provides remote, plan-based quantity takeoff support. This page does not establish a local office, completed local project, engineering approval or permit coverage.

What this changes in the bid review

Estimating interpretation: A farm-related project should not be marked exempt from construction-stormwater review solely because its land use is agricultural. Identify the actual construction footprint before measuring erosion and stabilization work.
