Sir:
Your Committee on Conference on the disagreeing vote of the Senate to the amendments proposed by the House of Representatives in S.B. No. 2484, S.D. 1, H.D. 1, entitled:
"A BILL FOR AN ACT MAKING AN APPROPRIATION FOR VOG MONITORING STATIONS,"
having met, and after full and free discussion, has agreed to recommend and does recommend to the respective Houses the final passage of this bill in an amended form.
The purpose of this measure is to appropriate funds for the installation of two vog-monitoring stations, one at Mountain View and one at Pahala on the island of Hawaii.
Your Committee on Conference finds that additional monitoring stations are necessary to alert thousands of residents in the Puna district who are affected by significant amounts of vog emissions. Accordingly, this measure makes an appropriation to the Department of Health for two additional vog-monitoring stations, one in Mountain View and one in Pahala.
Your Committee on Conference has amended this measure by:
(1) Inserting an appropriation amount of $150,000;
(2) Clarifying that one vog-monitoring station is be placed in Mountain View and one in Pahala, or at any alternate location as determined by the Department of Health; and
(3) Changing the effective date to July 1, 2006.
As affirmed by the record of votes of the managers of your Committee on Conference that is attached to this report, your Committee on Conference is in accord with the intent and purpose of S.B. No. 2484, S.D. 1, H.D. 1, as amended herein, and recommends that it pass Final Reading in the form attached hereto as S.B. No. 2484, S.D. 1, H.D. 1, C.D. 1.
