In late January 2009, two bills were introduced to the Hawaii State Legislature that would authorize the State of Hawaii to condemn the Molokai Ranch property that was abandoned in April of 2008 by owner GuocoLeisure Limited dba Molokai Properties. For more information see:
2009 January: House Bill 1295: Eminent Domain; Molokai Ranch (http://www.capitol.hawaii.gov/session2009/bills/HB1295_.htm)
2008 March 25: Molokai Ranch to Quit Island (http://archives.starbulletin.com/2008/03/25/news/story01.html)
2008 April 6: Final Day's Dim Light at the Molokai Ranch (http://archives.starbulletin.com/2008/04/06/news/story06.html)

It's not certain the State of Hawaii will be able to condemn the property but they are going to give it a good try.
