Subject: Attn: Chair Maile David and Co-Chair Aaron Chung and members of the County Council
Bill 167 AN ORDINANCE AMENDING CHAPTER 14 OF THE HAWAII COUNTY CODE 1983 (2016
EDITION, AS AMENDED), BY ADDING A NEW ARTICLE RELATING TO PROHIBITION OF NON-MINERAL
SUNSCREEN
I am in Strong Support of Bill 167. Healthy coral reefs protect our island's coastal infrastructure,
beaches, and community. The chemical compounds contained in non-mineral sunscreen inhibit
coral growth and degrade the integrity of our reefs. The purpose of this ordinance is to preserve
the health, safety, and welfare of humans and the environment, by allowing only mineral
sunscreens to be provided, sold, offered for sale, or distributed in the County.
Mahalo,
Michaela Johnsonczetti
