Honorable Calvin K.Y. Say
Speaker, House of Representatives
Twenty-First State Legislature
Regular Session of 2002
State of Hawaii
Sir:
Your Committees on Agriculture and Water and Land Use, to which was referred H.B. No. 2168 entitled:
"A BILL FOR AN ACT MAKING AN APPROPRIATION FOR THE WAIAHOLE WATER SYSTEM,"
beg leave to report as follows:
The purpose of this bill is to appropriate $200,000 to allow the Agribusiness Development Corporation (ADC) to provide all improvements required by the Commission on Water Resource Management to the Waiahole Water System.
Testimony in support of this measure was submitted by the Department of Land and Natural Resources. Ka Lahui Hawaii, Sierra Club, Hawaii Chapter, and two concerned citizens opposed this measure. The ADC and Hawaii's Thousand Friends offered comments.
Your Committees note that two appropriations are made in this measure:
(1) $200,000 in general funds is deposited into the Waiahole Water System Revolving Fund (Fund); and
(2) $200,000 is then appropriated out of the Fund to be used to carry out the purposes of this bill.
As affirmed by the records of votes of the members of your Committees on Agriculture and Water and Land Use that are attached to this report, your Committees are in accord with the intent and purpose of H.B. No. 2168 and recommend that it pass Second Reading and be referred to the Committee on Finance.
Respectfully submitted on behalf of the members of the Committees on Agriculture and Water and Land Use,
