A BILL FOR AN ACT
relating to legislative jurisdiction.
BE IT ENACTED BY THE LEGISLATURE OF THE STATE OF HAWAII:
SECTION 1. The purpose of this Act is to cede concurrent legislative jurisdiction to the United States as to specific property that was acquired by or for the United States Department of the Navy after the Hawaii Statehood Act of 1959, Public Law 86-3. Concurrent legislative jurisdiction already exists as to properties controlled or owned by the United States for Defense or Coast Guard purposes as of the Hawaii Statehood Act. This Act would achieve uniformity in the jurisdiction over the Navy's land in Hawaii and would allow for reciprocal law enforcement authority.
SECTION 2. Section 1-4.5, Hawaii Revised Statutes, is amended to read as follows:
"[[]§1-4.5[]]
Cession of concurrent jurisdiction. (a) Notwithstanding the provisions of
any other law, the State of Hawaii hereby cedes concurrent legislative
jurisdiction to the United States over the following:
(1) [lands] Lands and
improvements located in the State presently owned or hereafter acquired,
whether acquired by condemnation or otherwise, leased, occupied, or controlled
by or for the United States Department of Justice, or any of its component
agencies or bureaus, for correctional purposes[.]; and
(2) Lands and improvements located in the State presently owned, whether acquired by condemnation or otherwise, by or for the United States Department of the Navy, or any of its component agencies or bureaus, for defense purposes, for lands identified by tax map key numbers 4-8-14:6, 9-1-10:11, 9-1-10:15, 9-1-10:16, 9-7-18:3, 9-7-18:10, 9-7-18:19, 9-9-71:45, 9-9-01:08, 9-9-01:12, 4-1-2-02:11, 4-1-2-02-12, 4-1-2-02:15, 7-1-01-28, 7-1-01:39, 7-1-1:40, 7-1-01:41, 7-1-01:42, 7-1-01:43, 7-1-01-44, 7-1-02:35, and 7-1-02:36, and portions of 7-1-02-05, 7-1-02:09, 7-1-02:31, 7-1-02:32, and 7-1-02:33, and the portion of Lehua avenue situated at Waimano and Manana, Ewa, Oahu, Hawaii, as described in the deed of conveyance filed December 17, 1965, in the bureau of conveyances beginning at liber 5212, page 348.
(b) Cession of concurrent legislative jurisdiction, in accordance with subsection (a), shall only take effect upon the acceptance of such jurisdiction by the United States. The concurrent legislative jurisdiction so ceded shall end as to any such lands, improvements, or such portions thereof, that cease to be owned, leased, occupied, or controlled by or on behalf of the United States for correctional purposes.
(c) The State of Hawaii retains concurrent legislative jurisdiction, both civil and criminal, with the United States over all lands specified in subsection (a)."
SECTION 3. This Act does not affect rights and duties that matured, penalties that were incurred, and proceedings that were begun before its effective date.
SECTION 4. Statutory material to be repealed is bracketed and stricken. New statutory material is underscored.
SECTION 5. This Act shall take effect upon its approval.
