MV Maunalei Official Number 1181627 is a harbour facility situated at Pier 51 in Honolulu, Hawaii, United States. As a deep sea freight transportation asset, it supports cargo handling operations in the Port of Honolulu, a key maritime hub in the Pacific. The facility operates under NAICS codes 483111 (Deep Sea Freight Transportation) and 483113 (Coastal and Great Lakes Freight Transportation). In the United States, marine utilities are regulated under the US EPA Vessel General Permit (VGP) and NPDES permits for shoreside operations. Honolulu's harbour facilities typically handle containerized cargo, bulk goods, and fuel, with stormwater and oil-water management being critical environmental controls. Located in Honolulu County, the facility plays a role in Hawaii's supply chain, connecting the islands to global trade routes. The Port of Honolulu is essential for the state's economy, handling the majority of imported goods. Environmental considerations include managing ballast water to prevent invasive species and ensuring compliance with MARPOL Annexes for waste disposal.

The facility is located in Honolulu Harbor, which is adjacent to the sensitive coastal ecosystem of Oahu. Cargo handling operations, particularly for bulk and containerized goods, require robust stormwater management to prevent runoff into the harbor. Oil-water separation systems are essential to mitigate pollution risks from vessel operations. The proximity to urban Honolulu also necessitates careful management of air emissions and noise from port activities.
