Sir:

Your Committee on Water and Land Use, to which was referred S.C.R. No. 146, S.D. 1, entitled:

begs leave to report as follows:

The purpose of this concurrent resolution is to protect the natural resources along North Kohala's undeveloped coastline on the island of Hawaii by urging the retention and preservation of open space and view planes, historic sites, and traditional access in this region.

The Department of Land and Natural Resources, The Trust for Public Land, and the Legislative and Governmental Affairs Committee of the Office of Hawaiian Affairs testified in support of this measure.

Your Committee finds that the preservation of this region will provide many opportunities for future generations to experience the beauty and culture of Hawaii as it exists today.

As affirmed by the record of votes of the members of your Committee on Water and Land Use that is attached to this report, your Committee concurs with the intent and purpose of S.C.R. No. 146, S.D. 1, and recommends its adoption.
