Hawaii-Aleutian Standard Time Zone
From Freepedia
The Hawaii-Aleutian Standard Time Zone is a geographic region that keeps time by subtracting ten hours from UTC (UTC-10).
The region includes the U.S. state of Hawaii and Alaska's Aleutian Islands west of 169° 30′ west. It is the time zone located just west of the Alaska Standard Time Zone.
When Alaska observes daylight saving time, the timezone is known as "Hawaii-Aleutian Daylight Time", or "HADT" for short. During this period the region is nine hours behind UTC (UTC-9).
Hawaii, on the other hand, does not observe daylight saving time. The timezone is known as Hawaii Standard Time (or Hawaiian Standard Time) in Hawaii and is always UTC-10 throughout the year.
