BE IT ENACTED BY THE LEGISLATURE OF THE STATE OF HAWAII:
SECTION 1. Section 103D-1002, Hawaii Revised Statutes, is amended:

"(a) A purchasing agency shall review all specifications in a bid or proposal for purchase from the Hawaii products list where these products are available; provided that the products:
(1) Meet the minimum specifications and the selling price f.o.b. jobsite;
(2) Unloaded including applicable general excise tax and use tax does not exceed the lowest delivered price in Hawaii f.o.b. jobsite; and
(3) Unloaded, including applicable general excise tax and use tax, does not exceed the lowest delivered price of a similar non-Hawaii product by more than:
(A) [Three] Six per cent where class I Hawaii products are involved;
(B) [Five] Ten per cent where class II Hawaii products are involved; or
(C) [Ten] Twenty per cent where class III Hawaii products are involved."
2. By amended subsection (d) to read as follows:
"(d) Where a bid or proposal contains both Hawaii and non-Hawaii products, then for the purpose of selecting the lowest bid or purchase price only, the price bid or offered for a Hawaii product item shall be decreased by subtracting therefrom: [three] six per cent, [five] ten per cent, or [ten] twenty per cent for the class I, class II, or class III Hawaii product items bid or offered, respectively. The lowest total bid or proposal, taking the preference into consideration, shall be awarded the contract unless the bid or offer provides for additional award criteria. The contract amount of any contract awarded, however, shall be the amount of the bid or price offered, exclusive of the preferences."
SECTION 2. Statutory material to be repealed is bracketed and stricken. New statutory material is underscored.
SECTION 3. This Act shall take effect on July 1, 2003.
