BE IT ENACTED BY THE LEGISLATURE OF THE STATE OF HAWAII:
SECTION 1. Section 103-55.6, Hawaii Revised Statutes, is amended as follows:

"(a) A
governmental body, as defined in section 103D-104, that enters into a public
works contract under this chapter having an estimated value of not less than
$250,000, shall decrease the bid amount of a bidder by five per cent if the
bidder is a party to an apprenticeship agreement registered with the department
of labor and industrial relations for each [apprenticeable trade the bidder
will employ] type of classification that the bidder will list on the
certified payroll affidavit to construct the public works, and in
conformance with chapter 372. The lowest
total bid, taking the preference into consideration, shall be awarded the
contract unless the solicitation provides for additional award criteria. The contract amount awarded, however, shall
be the amount of the price offered, exclusive of the preference."
2. By amending subsection (c) to read:
"(c) At the time of submission of a competitive
sealed bid or a competitive sealed proposal by a bidder, the bidder shall
furnish written proof of being a party to a registered apprenticeship agreement
for each [apprenticeable trade the bidder will employ] type of
classification that the bidder will list on the certified payroll affidavit
to construct the public works and, if awarded the contract, shall continue to
certify monthly in writing that the bidder is a party to a registered
apprenticeship agreement for each [apprenticeable trade the bidder will
employ] type of classification that the bidder will list on the
certified payroll affidavit to construct the public works for the entire
duration of the bidder's work on the project.
This subsection shall be deemed to be incorporated into a public works
contract. A bidder who is awarded a
contract shall be subject to the following sanctions if, after commencement of
work, the bidder at any time during the construction is no longer a party to a
registered apprenticeship agreement for each [apprenticeable trade the
bidder will employ] type of classification that the bidder will list on
the certified payroll affidavit to construct the public works:
(1) Temporary or permanent cessation of work on the project, without recourse to breach of contract claims by the bidder; provided that the governmental body shall be entitled to restitution for nonperformance or liquidated damages, as appropriate; or
(2) Proceedings to debar or suspend under section 103D-702."
