Hawaii Revised Statutes Division 2. Business § 484-8

(a) Within forty-five days from the date of the notice of filing, the director shall enter a preliminary or final order registering the subdivided lands or rejecting the registration.

Unless the applicant has consented in writing to a delay, the land shall be deemed registered if the director fails to enter an order of rejection within forty-five days from the date of the notice of filing.

(b) If, in the case of an application for a final order of registration, the director affirmatively determines, upon inquiry and examination, that the requirements of section 484-7 have been met, the director shall enter a final order registering the subdivided lands and shall designate the form of the public offering statement.

(c) If the director determines upon inquiry and examination that, in the case of an application for a final order of registration, any of the requirements of section 484-7, have not been met, the director shall notify the applicant that the application for a final order of registration must be corrected in the particulars specified within forty-five days. If the requirements are not met within the time allowed the director shall enter an order rejecting the registration, which order shall include the findings of fact upon which the order is based. The order rejecting the registration shall not become effective for twenty days during which time the applicant may petition for reconsideration and shall be entitled to a hearing.
