Section 13-245-6 - Display of waterway markers(a) A waterway marker may be displayed as a sign on a fixed support, as a buoy bearing a symbol on its surface, or as a sign mounted on a buoy.(b) When a buoy is used to carry a symbol on its surface, it will be white with a band of international orange at the top and a band of international orange above the waterline at the bottom as prescribed by the chairperson.(c) A buoy whose sole purpose is to carry a sign above it will be marked with an international orange horizontal band at the top and a white horizontal band just above the waterline as prescribed by the chairperson. If the height of the buoy permits, additional white and international orange horizontal bands, not less than six inches wide, shall be placed between the two bands required above. No buoy except a buoy placed for that sole purpose shall carry a sign.(d) When symbols are placed on signs, a suitable white background may be used outside the symbol.[Eff 2/24/94] (Auth: HRS § 200-24) (Imp: HRS §§ 200-22, 200-24)
