H.D. 1
Honorable Scott K. Saiki
Speaker, House of Representatives
Thirty-Second State Legislature
Regular Session of 2024
State of Hawaii
Sir:
Your Committee on Water & Land, to which was referred H.R.
No. 122 entitled:
“HOUSE RESOLUTION FIRE AND FLOOD MITIGATION IN SOUTH MAUI,”
begs leave to report as follows:
The purpose of this measure is to strengthen fire and flood
mitigation in South Maui and encourage actions to control the
invasive axis deer population on Maui.
Your Committee received comments on this measure from the
Department of Land and Natural Resources.
Your Committee finds that this measure supports a net gain in
wetlands for the entire State, which will bolster efforts at fire
and flood mitigation.
Your Committee has amended this measure by:
(1) Requesting the State, rather than the Department of Land
and Natural Resources, to adopt a policy to promote a
net gain in wetlands;
(2) Modifying its title in accordance with its amended
purpose; and
2024—2515 HR122 HD1 HSCR HMSO
 STAND. CON. REP. NO. Ic1~_24

(3) Making technical, nonsubstantive amendments for the
purposes of clarity, consistency, and style.
As affirmed by the record of votes of the members of your
Committee on Water & Land that is attached to this report, your
Committee concurs with the intent and purpose of H.R. No. 122, as
amended herein, and recommends that it be referred to your
Committee on Finance in the form attached hereto as H.R. No. 122,
H.D. 1.
