On the legality of the tank being approved by the State, all one would have to provide is the tank manufacturers documents to match to the State Health Department (808-933-0401) approval method by model number of tank to their list. It may be as simple as their requirement be something like "holding tank shall be a "listed and approved" pre-manufactured vessel ". With that, all one would need is either a "UPC listed and approved", or IAPMO label on the tank and good to go on that part. As far as Septic Engineers using your tank would be a bit more complex as you would have to pre contact them to work a deal.
Edit to update-- if SHD states only the chemtainer tank is approved at this time it is cheaper to buy here by 500 bucks or so minus your shipping cost.

Typically units must conform to ASTM or ASSE standards or some other org depending on the situation or item. (I'm a retired Union Journeyman Plumber)
And of course since the field and tank are outside of the building, it normally does not require a license to install a septic system.
This is why you see land clearing companies offering to do site work.
