Sir:
Your Committee on Water and Land, to which was referred
H.C.R. No. 13, H.D. 2, entitled:
"HOUSE CONCURRENT RESOLUTION AUTHORIZING THE ISSUANCE OF A
TERM, NON-EXCLUSIVE EASEMENT COVERING A PORTION OF STATE
SUBMERGED LANDS AT HAUULA, KOOLAULOA, OAHU, FOR THE EXISTING

AND MAINTENANCE OF THE EXISTING IMPROVEMENTS CONSTRUCTED
THEREON,"
begs leave to report as follows:
The purpose and intent of this measure is to authorize the
issuance of a term, non-exclusive easement for the portion of
state submerged lands fronting the property identified as tax map
key: (1) 5-3-008:012, Hauula, Koolauloa, Oahu, for the existing
riprap revetment, ramp, and rock groin, and the use, repair, and
maintenance of existing improvements constructed thereon, pursuant
to section 171-53, Hawaii Revised Statutes.
Your Committee received testimony in support of this measure
from the Department of Land and Natural Resources and one

the Board of Land and Natural Resources, subject to conditions,
approved a grant of a twenty-five-year non-exclusive easement to

groin identified in this measure. Your Committee concludes that
the easement is necessary for the use, repair, and maintenance of
the existing riprap revetment, ramp, and rock groin.
As affirmed by the record of votes of the members of your
Committee on Water and Land that is attached to this report, your
Committee concurs with the intent and purpose of H.C.R. No. 13,
H.D. 2, and recommends its adoption.
