Legal Question in Construction Law in Hawaii

Prompt Payment Laws

I was assigned to do presentation on Prompt Payment Laws for the company I work for. In my research I have found that the federal law and some state laws require you to pay subcontractors with 7 days of payment from the owner. But I have always thought it was 10 days. Is there a reason for the change? Do you know of a good source of information regarding prompt payment laws?
