One day before the deadline, two more Hawaii Super PACs have filed their reports covering activities for the first seven months of 2012.

Civil Beat detailed the rules for how the eight registered independent-expenditure-only groups are regulated. The short answer: not much at all. Contributions and expenditures are unlimited so long as they’re not coordinated with any candidates.

Most interesting so far in the filings is that the Sierra Club Hawaii PAC spent more than $8,000 on mailers to support State Rep. Jessica Wooley, a dissident, in her House District 48 Democratic primary matchup against Pono Chong, a top ally of Speaker Calvin Say‘s. The PAC also spent almost $2,000 to promote Big Island hopeful Nicole Lowen, one of four Democrats vying for the District 6 seat.

The PAC raised nearly $17,000 between Jan. 1 and July 27 almost entirely from just six donors. The largest three were Hawaiian Island Solar ($5,390), Judith Flanders ($5,000) and Blue Planet Software ($3,000). The most an individual or organization can donate directly to a candidate for the Hawaii House is $2,000.

Meantime, Hawaii Solutions, created by two GOP leaders here, filed its report Monday. Former Republican Party Executive Director Dylan Nonaka was identified early on as strategy director, and former party chairman Sam Aiona is listed as chairman.

The Hawaii Solutions website says it “seeks to bring common sense to Hawaii’s political system by educating and motivating its citizens towards participation in the election process.”

The group raised $15,600 between Jan. 1 and July 27 and spent $5,600 in that time. Large donors included Chicago’s Tippy Wicker ($4,000), PVT Landfill President Alan Shigemura ($3,000) and Waianae Arcade owner Jake Kanemoto ($2,000). The largest expenditure was $1,400 for four weeks of radio advertising on KNDI.
