RE:   H.C.R. No. 84

 

 

 

 

Honorable Calvin K.Y. Say

Speaker, House of Representatives

Twenty-Sixth State Legislature

Regular Session of 2012

State of Hawaii

 

Sir:

 

     Your Committee on Water, Land, & Ocean Resources, to which was referred H.C.R. No. 84 entitled:

 

"HOUSE CONCURRENT RESOLUTION URGING THE ADOPTION OF LAWS TO REQUIRE WRITTEN PERMISSION FROM THE LANDOWNER IN ORDER TO HUNT ON PRIVATE LANDS AND TO DEFINE PLACES OF FORMAL HUNTING,"

 

begs leave to report as follows:

 

     The purpose of this measure is to urge the adoption of laws that:

 

     (1)  Require hunters hunting on private property to obtain written permission from the landowners; and

 

     (2)  Define a "place of formal hunting".

 

     The Land Use Research Foundation of Hawaii; the Hawaii Cattlemen's Council, Inc.; the Artisans Farmers Alliance; W. H. Shipman, Limited; the Hawaii Farm Bureau Federation; and several individuals supported this measure.  The Office of Hawaiian Affairs opposed this measure.  The Department of Land and Natural Resources commented on this measure.

 

     As affirmed by the record of votes of the members of your Committee on Water, Land, & Ocean Resources that is attached to this report, your Committee concurs with the intent and purpose of H.C.R. No. 84 and recommends that it be referred to the Committee on Judiciary.

 

Respectfully submitted on behalf of the members of the Committee on Water, Land, & Ocean Resources,
