Honorable Ronald D. Kouchi

State of Hawaii
Sirs:
Your Committee on Conference on the disagreeing vote of the House of Representatives to the amendments proposed by the Senate in H.B. No. 801, H.D. 1, S.D. 2, entitled:
"A BILL FOR AN ACT AUTHORIZING THE ISSUANCE OF SPECIAL PURPOSE REVENUE BONDS FOR SUNSTRONG LLC, A RENEWABLE ENERGY DEVELOPER SERVING THE GENERAL PUBLIC IN PROVIDING ELECTRIC ENERGY,"
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 support the growth of renewable energy and the reduction of fossil fuel use in Hawaii by authorizing the issuance of not more than $50,000,000 in special purpose revenue bonds to assist SunStrong LLC in providing renewable energy projects in the state.
After careful consideration, your Committee on Conference has amended this measure by clarifying that SunStrong LLC is an industrial enterprise, rather than a utility serving the general public in providing electric energy, gas, or telecommunications.
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 H.B. No. 801, H.D. 1, S.D. 2, as amended herein, and recommends that it pass Final Reading in the form attached hereto as H.B. No. 801, H.D. 1, S.D. 2, C.D. 1.
Respectfully submitted on behalf of the managers:
