                                   RE:  S.B. No. 693
                                        S.D. 1




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

Sir:

     Your Committee on Water, Land, and Hawaiian Affairs, to
which was referred S.B. No. 693 entitled: 

     "A BILL FOR AN ACT MAKING AN APPROPRIATION TO AID EFFICIENT
     MANAGEMENT OF LAKE WILSON,"

begs leave to report as follows:

     The purpose of this measure is to appropriate funds to aid
in the efficient management of Lake Wilson.

     Specifically, the measure appropriates $262,000 for the
Department of Land and Natural Resources to:

     (1)  Establish a permanent lake keeper position;

     (2)  Construct a small office and laboratory; and

     (3)  Purchase a sixteen foot boat.

     No testimony was submitted on the measure.

     Your Committee finds that the efficient management and
protection of Lake Wilson would benefit not only area residents,
but all citizens of the State who utilize and enjoy the resources
Lake Wilson provides.

     Your Committee has amended the measure by deleting the
specified amount.

it pass Second Reading in the form attached hereto as S.B.
No. 693, S.D. 1, and be referred to the Committee on Ways and
Means.
