The Hawaii-Aleutian Standard Time (HAST) is the zone time of the Hawaii-Aleutian zone. The designation was introduced in 1983.
The United States Standard Alaska Time corresponded to the Mean Astronomical Time at 150 ° W since March 19, 1918 (Standard Time Act) , i.e. EST − 5 ( Eastern Standard Time , the mean local time at 75 ° W with the date change at noon, the time standard of the time USA, but Civil Time was in use, i.e. date change at midnight), then UT − 10 after the adoption of world time in 1928, and was valid for almost all of Alaska . From March 31, 1942 to September 30, 1945 ( War time Act ), War Time ( UT − 9 ) was in effect all year round in the USA , and after 1947 the UT − 9 summer time regulation was also adopted in Alaska. After Hawaii took over HAST on June 8, 1947, the time zone was called Hawaii-Alaska Standard Time or Alaska-Hawaii (an) Standard Time .
Aleutian Islands: Hawaii-Aleutian Standard Time (HAST) or Hawaii-Aleutian Daysaving Time (HADT)
HAST is now the standard time only in the Aleutians West Census Area (Outer Aleutians) west of 169 ° 30 ′ W. It also applies to the Pribilof Islands in the central Bering Sea. The Hawaii-Aleutian Daysaving Time (HDT, HADT) is used as summer time , which is a time shift from UTC − 9. It has been valid throughout the USA since 2007 from the second Sunday in March to the first Sunday in November, the changeover takes place at 2:00 HAST to 03:00 HADT (Energy Policy Act 2005)
In 1983, the state of Alaska , to which the Aleutian Islands belong, adopted a time shift from UTC − 9 across the continent and named it Alaska Standard Time (AST), previously a total of four time zones had been common, with AST at UTC − 10. Since then one speaks of Hawaii-Aleutian Standard Time for UTC − 10, which as HAST with HADT is only used in the Outer Aleutian Islands (see History of Alaska: Present ).

1900 to 1947 GMT / UT − 10:30 (UT from 1928); Apr 30 to May 21, 1933 UT − 9:30; 1947 to 1968 HAST / HADT |
There is also a HAST zone in which daylight saving time is not used, Hawaii-Aleutian Standard Time - Hawaii , also known as Hawaiian Standard Time (HST). The time is valid all year round both on the entire Hawai'i archipelago , the 50th US state, and on the Johnston Atoll , which is located to the west and is one of the non-incorporated United States Minor Outlying Islands .
The normal time is the shortwave transmitter NIST Radio Station WWVH (2.5 / 5/10/15 MHz) on Kaua'i , which is compared with the time signal of the National Institute of Standards and Technology in Fort Collins.
From 1900 to 1947 Hawai'i used the longitude 157 ° 30 'West as the reference meridian, which runs between the islands of Oʻahu and Molokaʻi , with a time difference of UT − 10:30 ( Universal Time was then universal time, before 1928 the reference was GMT −10: 30 ). Thus the time in the capital Honolulu almost corresponded to the solar time . From April 30, 1933 to May 21, 1933, a trial attempt was made to set daylight saving time to UT − 9:30. On June 8, 1947, HAST was introduced with UT − 10:00, including daylight saving time HADT. In 1966, the Uniform Time Act made it possible to opt out of the entire state from the daylight saving time regulation. Hawaii took this opportunity because a daylight rule is of no use in the tropics, and since 1968 UTC – 10:00 has been valid all year round.

The Tahiti Time (TAHT), French Heure de Tahiti or Temps de Tahiti , precisely L'heure légale dans la territoire de la Polynésie Française , is the time zone of French Polynesia for the Society Islands including the main island Tahiti , the Tuamotu Archipelago and the Austral -Islands ( Îles Australes ), but not the Marquesas ( Marquises , UTC − 9: 30 ) and Gambier Islands ( UTC − 9 ). It is valid all year round.
Historical use
The liner islands , part of the state of Kiribati since 1979 , used UTC – 10 until the end of 1994, but then switched to UTC + 14 (same time, but different date), so that December 30, 1994 is January 1, 1995 followed.
