Honorable Calvin K.Y. Say

Speaker, House of Representatives

Twenty-Fifth State Legislature

Regular Session of 2010

Sir:

 

     Your Committee on Finance, to which was referred H.B. No. 2605 entitled:

 

"A BILL FOR AN ACT RELATING TO SAFETY INSPECTION OF MOTOR CARRIER VEHICLES,"

 

begs leave to report as follows:

 

     The purpose of this bill is to align sections 286-207 and 286-209, Hawaii Revised Statutes, with Federal Motor Carrier Safety Regulations to ensure continued federal funding from the Federal Motor Carrier Safety Administration to Department of Transportation's (DOT) Motor Vehicle Safety Office by requiring certain vehicles transporting hazardous materials to comply with the state motor carriers safety laws.

 

     DOT testified in support of this bill.

 

     As affirmed by the record of votes of the members of your Committee on Finance that is attached to this report, your Committee is in accord with the intent and purpose of H.B. No. 2605 and recommends that it pass Third Reading.

 

Respectfully submitted on behalf of the members of the Committee on Finance,
