RE: H.B. No. 1682
H.D. 1
Honorable Scott K. Saiki
Speaker, House of Representatives
Thirty-First State Legislature
Regular Session of 2022
State of Hawaii
Sir:
Your Committee on Energy & Environmental Protection, to which was referred H.B. No. 1682 entitled:
"A BILL FOR AN ACT RELATING TO THE ISSUANCE OF SPECIAL PURPOSE REVENUE BONDS TO ASSIST NEXT LEVEL SOLUTIONS GROUP INC,"
begs leave to report as follows:
The purpose of this measure is to authorize the issuance of special purpose revenue bonds to assist Next Level Solutions Group Inc., in developing a waste-to-energy facility.
Your Committee finds that developing
waste-to-energy technology in the State will help to mitigate the effects of
climate change by reducing the amount of waste that enters Hawaii's landfills.
Your Committee has amended this measure by changing
the effective date to July 1, 2100, to encourage further discussion.
As affirmed by the record of votes of the members of your Committee on Energy & Environmental Protection that is attached to this report, your Committee is in accord with the intent and purpose of H.B. No. 1682, as amended herein, and recommends that it pass Second Reading in the form attached hereto as H.B. No. 1682, H.D. 1, and be referred to your Committee on Finance.
Respectfully submitted on behalf of the members of the Committee on Energy & Environmental Protection,
