Honolulu, Hawaii

RE: S.B. No. 2626

S.D. 1

Honorable Ronald D. Kouchi

President of the Senate

Thirty-First State Legislature

Regular Session of 2022

State of Hawaii

Sir:

Your Committee on Ways and Means, to which was referred S.B. No. 2626, S.D. 1, entitled:

"A BILL FOR AN ACT RELATING TO THE DEPARTMENT OF LAND AND NATURAL RESOURCES,"

begs leave to report as follows:

The purpose and intent of this measure is to appropriate moneys to the Department of Land and Natural Resources Division of State Parks to purchase all-terrain vehicles for use on the island of Maui.

Your Committee received written comments in support of this measure from the Department of Land and Natural Resources.

Your Committee received written comments on this measure from the Department of Budget and Finance.

Your Committee finds that the aging vehicles currently used by the Maui Branch of the Division of State Parks require frequent maintenance and costly repairs. The vehicles funded by this measure are therefore necessary for the Division of State Parks to perform its duties safely and efficiently.

As affirmed by the record of votes of the members of your Committee on Ways and Means that is attached to this report, your Committee is in accord with the intent and purpose of S.B. No. 2626, S.D. 1, and recommends that it pass Third Reading.

Respectfully submitted on behalf of the members of the Committee on Ways and Means,
