Honorable Norman Mizuguchi
President of the Senate
Twentieth State Legislature
Regular Session of 1999
State of Hawaii

Sir:

     Your Committee on Transportation and Intergovernmental
Affairs, to which was referred H.C.R. No. 56, H.D. 1, entitled: 

     "HOUSE CONCURRENT RESOLUTION REQUESTING THE UNITED STATES
     ARMY TO FURTHER INFORM AND INVOLVE THE PUBLIC ON MILITARY
     AND RELATED ACTIVITIES AT THE MAKUA MILITARY RESERVATION ON
     OAHU,"

begs leave to report as follows:

     The purpose of this measure is to request the United States
Army to further inform and involve the public on military and
related activities at the Makua Military Reservation on Oahu.

     Your Committee conducted a hearing on and distributed copies
of a proposed Senate Draft of this measure which urges the United
States Senate to confirm the recent nomination by President
Clinton of General Eric Shinseki as the 34th Chief of Staff of
the United States Army.

     Testimony in support of the proposed Senate Draft of this
measure was received from two individuals.

     Your Committee finds that General Shinseki is well-qualified
for the highest position in the United States Army and fully
supports his nomination.

     Your Committee has amended this measure by replacing its
contents with the proposed Senate Draft of this measure.
