RE: S.B. No. 766
H.D. 1
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. 766, H.D. 1, entitled:
"A BILL FOR AN ACT RELATING TO MOTOR CARRIER PENALTIES,"
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 allow a penalty of up to $5,000 for certain repeat offenders of the motor carrier law.
Your Committee on Conference finds that commercial Public Utilities Commission (PUC) motor carriers traditionally transport high numbers of tourists to many locations around the State. However, the trucking and tour vehicle industry have long had to contend with unlicensed and unregulated operators who seek to skirt the PUC requirements of motor carrier operations. This measure will strengthen the PUC's ability to punish those who repeatedly break the rules.
Your Committee on Conference has amended this measure by making it effective upon its approval.
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. 766, H.D. 1, as amended herein, and recommends that it pass Final Reading in the form attached hereto as S.B. No. 766, H.D. 1, C.D. 1.
Respectfully submitted on behalf of the managers:
