\nA Review of State and County Strategies. The host for this show is Joe Kent. The guest is Lance Owens.
In 2017, Hawai'i adopted a law requiring that all of the state\u2019s 88,000 cesspools be converted to septic, sewer or another wastewater disposal system by the year 2050.
But cesspool conversation can be prohibitively expensive \u2014 ranging up to $40,000 for some homeowners.
As a result, the state and counties are reviewing numerous strategies to achieve that 2050 goal.
On today\u2019s episode of Hawaii Together, Lance Owens, a Hawai'i island REALTOR and co-operator of the real estate company Kona Home Team, talks about these strategies and especially how Hawai'i island, which is home to more than half of the state\u2019s cesspools, is planning to deal with them.
He joins host Joe Kent, executive vice president of the Grassroot Institute of Hawaii, to discuss the costs, benefits and feasibility of the cesspool-conversion mandate.
