     BE IT RESOLVED by the Senate of the Thirty-second Legislature of the State of Hawaii, Regular Session of 2024, the House of Representatives concurring, that the Division of Boating and Ocean Recreation of the Department of Land and Natural Resources is urged to use job order contracting to streamline the maintenance and repair of all Division of Boating and Ocean Recreation facilities, including dredging and bathroom and pier repairs; and
