What does HI-5 have to do with the cost of providing curbside recycling? HI-5 unredeemed deposits is to pay for the operation of the HI-5 program, not for implementing island wide recycling, or did I read the state law wrong? ......

I'm not sure who's reading the state law right or wrong...

But This is what I'm reading:

The department may also use the money to:

(1) Fund administrative, audit, and compliance activities associated with collection and payment of the deposits and handling fees of the deposit beverage container program;

(2) Conduct recycling education and demonstration projects;

(3) Promote recyclable market development activities;

(4) Support the handling and transportation of the deposit beverage containers to end-markets;

(5) Hire personnel to oversee the implementation of the deposit beverage container program, including permitting and enforcement activities; and

(6) Fund associated office expenses.

© Any funds that accumulate in the deposit beverage container deposit special fund shall be retained in the fund unless determined by the auditor to be in excess, after adjustments to the deposit beverage fee, pursuant to the management and financial audits conducted in accordance with section 342G-107
