RE: S.B. No. 1212

S.D. 2

H.D. 2

C.D. 1

Honorable Ronald D. Kouchi

President of the Senate

Thirty-First State Legislature

Regular Session of 2021

State of Hawaii

Honorable Scott K. Saiki

Speaker, House of Representatives

Thirty-First State Legislature

Regular Session of 2021

State of Hawaii

Sirs:

Your Committee on Conference on the disagreeing vote of the Senate to the amendments proposed by the House of Representatives in S.B. No. 1212, S.D. 2, H.D. 2, entitled:

"A BILL FOR AN ACT RELATING TO MOTOR VEHICLE REGISTRATION,"

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 amend the registration requirements for motor carrier vehicles that have an outstanding federal out-of-service order.

Your Committee on Conference finds that this measure will bring Hawaii into compliance with the federal Performance Registration Information Systems Management (PRISM) program that identifies motor carriers that are under a federal out-of-service order because those motor carriers have not corrected safety deficiencies found in compliance review inspections. This measure will allow the State to be compliant with and qualify under PRISM and thus continue to qualify for federal funding.

Your Committee on Conference has amended this measure by inserting an effective date of July 1, 2021.

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. 1212, S.D. 2, H.D. 2, as amended herein, and recommends that it pass Final Reading in the form attached hereto as S.B. No. 1212, S.D. 2, H.D. 2, C.D. 1.

Respectfully submitted on behalf of the managers:

ON THE PART OF THE HOUSE
