RE:   H.B. No. 1062

 

 

 

 

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. 1062 entitled:

 

"A BILL FOR AN ACT RELATING TO GAS PIPELINE SYSTEMS,"

 

begs leave to report as follows:

 

     The purpose of this bill is to repeal the Public Utilities Commission's (PUC) responsibility for gas pipeline safety and inspections, as those functions have been performed by the U.S. Department of Transportation's Office of Pipeline Safety since 1993.

 

     The PUC testified in support of this bill.

 

     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. 1062 and recommends that it pass Third Reading.

 

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