'Superferry' Plans Stalled
Plans for an inter-island "superferry" may be stalled in Hawaii as environmental groups and the State Supreme Court have called for a more extensive environmental impact review of the harbor expansions the ferry system would require.
"A Hawaii Supreme Court decision left legal questions swirling last night about the Hawaii Superferry."
"While more than 16,000 people have taken a preview tour, environmentalists and Hawaii Superferry officials differ on whether the vessel will be able to start operation Tuesday as planned."
"Environmentalists including Maui Tomorrow applauded the Supreme Court's decision to require the state to prepare an environmental assessment for harbor improvements to accommodate the Hawaii Superferry."
"They have been critical of the state's role in pushing through the approval process for the Superferry."
