RE:   H.B. No. 2583

 

 

 

 

Honorable Calvin K.Y. Say

Speaker, House of Representatives

Twenty-Fifth State Legislature

Regular Session of 2010

State of Hawaii

 

Sir:

 

     Your Committee on Water, Land, & Ocean Resources, to which was referred H.B. No. 2583 entitled:

 

"A BILL FOR AN ACT RELATING TO IMPOUNDED VESSELS,"

 

begs leave to report as follows:

 

     The purpose of this bill is to clarify that the owner of the vessel shall be responsible for all costs and expenses associated with the disposal of an unauthorized vessel impounded by the Department of Land and Natural Resources (DLNR) instead of placing the burden on DLNR.

 

     A concerned individual testified in support of this bill.

 

     As affirmed by the record of votes of the members of your Committee on Water, Land, & Ocean Resources that is attached to this report, your Committee is in accord with the intent and purpose of H.B. No. 2583 and recommends that it pass Second Reading and be referred to the Committee on Judiciary.

 

 

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