RE: H.B. No. 378
H.D. 1
Honorable Joseph M. Souki
Speaker, House of Representatives
Twenty-Seventh State Legislature
Regular Session of 2013
State of Hawaii
Sir:
Your Committee on Energy & Environmental Protection, to which was referred H.B. No. 378 entitled:
"A BILL FOR AN ACT RELATING TO BEACH NOURISHMENT,"
begs leave to report as follows:
Your Committee has amended this measure by:
(1) Changing the appropriated amount to an unspecified amount; and
(2) Making technical, nonsubstantive amendments for the purposes of clarity, consistency, and style.
Your Committee notes that an appropriation of $400,000 may drain the Beach Restoration Special Fund and cripple future restoration efforts and respectfully asks that your Committee on Finance consider replenishing the fund or making a separate appropriation for this purpose.
As affirmed by the record of votes of the members of your Committee on Energy & Environmental Protection that is attached to this report, your Committee is in accord with the intent and purpose of H.B. No. 378, as amended herein, and recommends that it pass Second Reading in the form attached hereto as H.B. No. 378, H.D. 1, and be referred to the Committee on Finance.
Respectfully submitted on behalf of the members of the Committee on Energy & Environmental Protection,
|
