RE:   H.B. No. 645

      H.D. 2

 

 

 

 

Honorable Calvin K.Y. Say

Speaker, House of Representatives

Twenty-Fifth State Legislature

Regular Session of 2009

State of Hawaii

 

Sir:

 

     Your Committee on Finance, to which was referred H.B. No. 645, H.D. 1, entitled:

 

"A BILL FOR AN ACT RELATING TO KAENA POINT,"

 

begs leave to report as follows:

 

     The purpose of this bill is to support the cultural practice of overnight fishing at Kaena Point on Oahu by directing the Department of Land and Natural Resources (DLNR) to establish a pilot program to issue annual passes allowing Hawaii residents to fish overnight at Kaena Point while in possession of camping paraphernalia.

 

     DLNR, Kawaihapai Ohana, and numerous concerned individuals opposed this bill.  The Office of Hawaiian Affairs and a concerned individual offered comments.

 

     Your Committee has amended this bill by:

 

     (1)  Changing the effective date to July 1, 2020, to encourage further discussion; and

 

     (2)  Making technical, nonsubstantive amendments for consistency, style, and clarity.

 

     As affirmed by the record of votes of the members of your Committee on Finance that is attached to this report, your Committee is in accord with the intent and purpose of H.B. No. 645, H.D. 1, as amended herein, and recommends that it pass Third Reading in the form attached hereto as H.B. No. 645, H.D. 2.

 

Respectfully submitted on behalf of the members of the Committee on Finance,
