                                        S.D. 2




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

Sir:

     Your Committee on Ways and Means, to which was referred S.B.
No. 180, S.D. 1, entitled:

     "A BILL FOR AN ACT MAKING AN APPROPRIATION FOR SUBSTANCE
     ABUSE PREVENTION AND TREATMENT SERVICES,"

begs leave to report as follows:

     The purpose of this measure is to make appropriations for
substance abuse prevention and treatment services.

     Specifically, this bill appropriates, in each of fiscal
years 1999-2000 and 2000-2001, the following amounts:

     (1)  $480,000 for substance abuse prevention services
          statewide;

     (2)  $600,000 for adolescent school-based substance abuse
          treatment services in public high schools statewide;

     (3)  (A)  $98,000 for crisis intervention/detoxification
               residential beds statewide;

          (B)  $688,000 for residential (non-hospital) treatment
               services statewide;


 
a                                                       SB180 SD2
 
 
 
 
                                   STAND. COM. REP. NO. 619
                                   Page 2


          (C)  $120,000 for intensive outpatient services
               statewide; and

          (D)  $432,000 for therapeutic living homes/programs at
               two sites statewide.

     Your Committee finds that a comprehensive approach is
necessary to adequately address the effects of alcohol and drug
abuse on society.

     Upon further consideration, your Committee has amended this
bill by deleting all appropriated dollar amounts and replacing
them with blank amounts for the purpose of promoting further
discussion.  Your Committee has also made numerous technical,
nonsubstantive amendments for the purpose of clarity and style.

     As affirmed by the record of votes of the members of your
Committee on Ways and Means that is attached to this report, your
Committee is in accord with the intent and purpose of S.B. No.
180, S.D. 1, as amended herein, and recommends that it pass Third
Reading in the form attached hereto as S.B. No. 180, S.D. 2.

                                 Respectfully submitted on behalf
                                 of the members of the Committee
                                 on Ways and Means,



                                 ________________________________
                                 CAROL FUKUNAGA, Co-Chair
