                   A  BILL  FOR  AN  ACT

RELATING TO WAIMANALO.



BE IT ENACTED BY THE LEGISLATURE OF THE STATE OF HAWAII:

 1      SECTION 1.  In 1996, in an effort to address the concerns of
 
 2 Waimanalo area farmers who had previously been deemed ineligible
 
 3 to obtain a lease under Act 237, Session Laws of Hawaii (SLH)
 
 4 1988, the legislature enacted Act 257, SLH 1996, to authorize the
 
 5 department of land and natural resources to enter into long-term
 
 6 lease negotiations and execute long-term leases with those
 
 7 revocable permittees who are situated in the Waimanalo area, who
 
 8 are farming.  The legislature finds that Act 257, SLH 1996, has
 
 9 been successful and should be extended.
 
10      The purpose of this Act is to allow the department of land
 
11 and natural resources to continue entering into long-term lease
 
12 negotiations and to execute long-term leases with eligible
 
13 Waimanalo farmers.
 
14      SECTION 2.  Act 257, Session Laws of Hawaii 1996, is amended
 
15 by amending section 7 to read as follows:
 
16      "SECTION 7.  This Act shall take effect upon its approval
 
17 and shall be repealed on [July 1, 1999.] July 1, 2001."
 
18      SECTION 3.  Statutory material to be repealed is bracketed.
 
19 New statutory material is underscored.
