Honorable Calvin K.Y. Say

Speaker, House of Representatives

Twenty-First State Legislature

Regular Session of 2002

State of Hawaii

Sir:

Your Committee on Water and Land Use, to which was referred S.B. No. 2814 entitled:

"A BILL FOR AN ACT RELATING TO SECTION 13 OF ACT 15, THIRD SPECIAL SESSION LAWS OF HAWAII 2001,"

begs leave to report as follows:

The purpose of the measure is to clarify that section 171-13, Hawaii Revised Statutes, will be reinstated in its original form at the sunset of Act 15, Third Special Session Laws of Hawaii 2001.

Act 15 authorized the Governor to declare an economic emergency from September 11, 2001, to April 30, 2002; to suspend any statute, rule, or order and adopt rules to implement certain measures; and to suspend, waive, or defer any contract obligations under certain conditions.

The Department of land and Natural Resources testified in support of this measure.

As affirmed by the record of votes of the members of your Committee on Water and Land Use that is attached to this report, your Committee is in accord with the intent and purpose of S.B. No. 2814, and recommends that it pass Second Reading and be referred to the Committee on Finance.

 

Respectfully submitted on behalf of the members of the Committee on Water and Land Use,
