RE:   S.B. No. 2409

      H.D. 3

 

 

 

 

Honorable Calvin K.Y. Say

Speaker, House of Representatives

Twenty-Fifth State Legislature

Regular Session of 2010

State of Hawaii

 

Sir:

 

     Your Committee on Judiciary, to which was referred S.B. No. 2409, H.D. 2, entitled:

 

"A BILL FOR AN ACT RELATING TO MARINE LIFE CONSERVATION DISTRICTS,"

 

begs leave to report as follows:

 

     The purpose of this bill is to reduce hardships on holders of Marine Life Conservation District permits caused by changes in permit conditions by requiring the Department of Land and Natural Resources (DLNR) to provide 90 days written notice of any change except where immediate modifications are necessary to protect or preserve the conservation district.

 

     The Ocean Tourism Coalition supported this bill.  DLNR opposed this measure.

 

     Your Committee finds that discussion should continue on the 90 day notice period for permit condition modifications. 

 

     Technical, nonsubstantive amendments were made for clarity, consistency, and style.

     As affirmed by the record of votes of the members of your Committee on Judiciary that is attached to this report, your Committee is in accord with the intent and purpose of S.B. No. 2409, H.D. 2, as amended herein, and recommends that it pass Third Reading in the form attached hereto as S.B. No. 2409, H.D. 3.

 

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