WHEREAS, the existing pier identified

WHEREAS, in 2016, Mr. Muller expressed an
interest in converting the revocable permit to a non-exclusive easement; and
WHEREAS, the Department of Land and Natural

to the conversion into a non-exclusive easement regarding the pier; and
WHEREAS, at
its meeting of January 13, 2017, under agenda item D-14, the Board of Land and

resolve the encroachment, to run with the land and to inure to the benefit of

and
WHEREAS, House Concurrent Resolution No. 27, Senate Draft 1, adopted in the Twenty-ninth Legislature of the State of Hawaii, Regular Session of 2017, cited the purpose of the requested non-exclusive easement only for pier purposes; and
