RE:   H.B. No. 54

 

 

 

 

Honorable Joseph M. Souki

Speaker, House of Representatives

Twenty-Ninth State Legislature

Regular Session of 2017

State of Hawaii

 

Sir:

 

     Your Committee on Water & Land, to which was referred H.B. No. 54 entitled:

 

"A BILL FOR AN ACT RELATING TO SMALL BOAT HARBORS,"

 

begs leave to report as follows:

 

     The purpose of this measure is to prohibit the Chairperson of the Board of Land and Natural Resources from adopting any rule with respect to a small boat harbor where a marine fueling station has been established that requires the exclusive fueling of vessels from that station only.

 

     The Department of Land and Natural Resources testified in opposition to this measure.  One concerned individual offered comments on this measure.  

 

     As affirmed by the record of votes of the members of your Committee on Water & Land that is attached to this report, your Committee is in accord with the intent and purpose of H.B. No. 54 and recommends that it pass Second Reading and be placed on the calendar for Third Reading.

 

Respectfully submitted on behalf of the members of the Committee on Water & Land,
