Summary: The committee heard several water, wildlife, and land-use bills. AB 2218 by Assembly Member Calóra would establish a state policy directing agencies to recognize and address water-related inequities affecting tribes; tribal supporters said it is a needed step toward restoring a voice at the table, while water agencies and local government groups opposed it as vague and potentially harmful to water supply reliability. The bill was amended in committee and moved forward on a vote, though it was left on call. AB 2032 by Assembly Member Ransom, the Golden Mussel Response Act, would speed agency response to the invasive golden mussel by streamlining permits and research; it drew broad support and no opposition, and passed the committee unanimously to Environmental Safety and Toxic Materials. AB 1712 by Assembly Member Pacheco would let Santa Fe Springs sell its small, contaminated water system through a protest process instead of a municipal election; supporters said it would avoid major rate hikes and improve reliability, and it was moved to Appropriations, though the vote was left on call. The committee also considered AB 1722 by Assembly Member Hadwick, which would create a clearer self-defense exception under the California Endangered Species Act for people facing dangerous predators. The author and a sheriff described a fatal mountain lion attack and argued rural residents need certainty; Defenders of Wildlife withdrew opposition after committee amendments, and the bill advanced to Judiciary on a vote that was left on call. AB 1613 by Assembly Member Wilson would require an off-highway vehicle safety and stewardship certification course before operating OHVs on public lands starting in 2029. Supporters said it would reduce accidents and educate new riders, while Vice Chair Gonzalez raised concerns about fees, penalties, tourism, and impacts on low-income residents in his district; the bill passed on a split vote and was left on call. Later, AB 1808 by Assembly Member Carrillo would expand local permitting authority for Western Joshua tree projects and reduce or waive some fees for homeowners and public works. Supporters framed it as a way to balance conservation with housing and infrastructure needs, while environmental groups opposed changes they said would weaken avoidance and mitigation protections; the bill passed to Natural Resources and was left on call. AB 1894 by Assembly Member Rubio would address imported water deliveries and groundwater recharge in the context of golden mussel restrictions, with supporters arguing for a statewide, science-based approach that preserves water reliability; it advanced to Appropriations with no opposition. Throughout the hearing, members repeatedly emphasized the need to balance competing interests, especially around water reliability, tribal equity, public safety, and environmental protection.

Summary: The committee first recognized Mark Roper of the Economic Development Department for his long service and retirement, with members and the secretary praising his work on economic development across the state. Secretary Rob Black then presented EDD’s budget and special appropriation requests, describing strong recent job and income growth and outlining the department’s strategy around science and technology, site readiness, workforce development, foreign direct investment, and rural/community programs. He highlighted wins in advanced energy, quantum, space and defense, and biosciences, and asked for funding for quantum/DARPA matching funds, additional site readiness work, LIDA closing funds, JTIP training support, New Mexico Partnership, and healthy foods and other community programs. Members asked detailed questions about the quantum proposal, site readiness, the new mapping tool for industrial sites, workforce participation, trade missions, foreign investment, tariffs, water and produced water, tribal site evaluation, and public engagement on major projects. Black said the quantum request was intended to match federal dollars and build a workforce pipeline, that the site-readiness software would be a set enterprise license, and that the department was working with tribes and local partners on future site evaluations. He also said tariffs have created uncertainty but New Mexico’s infrastructure and foreign trade zones could help attract manufacturing, and he acknowledged concerns about transparency and community input while noting that some projects, such as Pacific Fusion, had gone through extensive public processes. The committee also discussed specific projects and funding balances, including Mantis Space’s move to Albuquerque, the status of Virgin Galactic’s spaceport lease, and the current LIDA fund balance and encumbrances. Black and Deputy Secretary Isaac Romero said the department was trying to use State Investment Council-backed venture funds to attract companies and that the new investments were already producing deals and jobs. Members generally supported the department’s direction but pressed for more targeted expertise, faster deployment, and stronger community involvement in future economic development decisions. Later, Secretary de Blassie of the Department of Health presented the department’s budget request and progress report. He said DOH had improved revenue cycle management, reduced old Medicaid-pending cases, increased census at facilities, improved budget and contract timeliness, and responded effectively to the measles outbreak. The department requested additional base funding for epidemiology and response, the DOH helpline, the Vital Records Virtual Vault, state labs, and the veterans home, along with special requests for respiratory vaccinations and marketing and lab equipment replacement. He also noted progress on MOUD and the medical psilocybin program, and said the department was not seeking to launch new programs given the limited time left in the administration.

Summary: House Finance held public hearings on several tax-related bills. HB 2584 would create a sales and use tax exemption for qualifying farm machinery and equipment purchased by eligible farmers, with the sponsor and supporters saying it would help struggling agricultural producers, encourage investment in more efficient and environmentally beneficial equipment, and support rural economies. County representatives opposed extending the exemption to local sales taxes, warning that counties rely heavily on sales tax revenue and cannot absorb additional exemptions. HB 2376 would consolidate the state’s two school property tax levies into one, expand and simplify property tax relief for seniors, people with disabilities, and veterans, and change how disposable income is calculated for eligibility. Supporters, including county officials and assessors, said it would help people age in place and make the program easier to use, while opponents argued it would raise taxes for some property owners and expand the state school levy. The committee also heard HB 2610, which would broaden a property tax exemption for nonprofit homeownership development so temporary nonprofit or community uses would not jeopardize the exemption; supporters said it would help nonprofits manage land during long predevelopment periods. HB 2615 would codify the Department of Revenue’s voluntary disclosure agreement program and create a temporary tax amnesty period for certain B&O, public utility, and sales/use tax liabilities. The sponsor and several tax and business witnesses said it would bring taxpayers into compliance, generate revenue, and help small businesses correct honest mistakes, while questions were raised about eligibility language for businesses involved in criminal tax prosecutions. After the hearings, the committee moved into executive action and reported HB 2194, HB 2257, HB 2528, and HB 2175 out of committee with due pass recommendations, with recorded votes showing support from most members and opposition from a minority on HB 2194 and HB 2528. The chair announced that HB 2584, HB 2610, and HB 2615 would be scheduled for executive session the following day, with no amendments allowed.

Summary: The Senate Committee on Economic Development and Tourism heard several governor’s message nominations to the Hawaii Tourism Authority’s advisory board. The first nominee, Daniel O’Leary, received strong support from HTA leadership and Deputy Director James Kunane Tokioka, who praised his visitor-industry knowledge and work on brand marketing and tourism planning. O’Leary said he hoped to contribute his experience and strengthen the organization’s integrity. Joel Guy was also supported by HTA, Tokioka, and several community testifiers, who highlighted his long work in Hana, his film-industry background, and his role in community-focused tourism planning. During questioning, Guy said the advisory board should still have influence, especially on strategic planning and community concerns, even though its role is advisory rather than decision-making. The committee then considered Linda Wong’s nomination. HTA and Tokioka strongly supported her, citing her long community experience and familiarity with HTA work. Wong said the new advisory board was collaborative, had no conflicts so far, and was trying to balance resident concerns with attracting higher-value tourists. Senator Kim questioned her about the advisory structure, and Wong said she believed the Legislature had reduced HTA’s authority because of past conflicts but that the new board could help turn things around and possibly regain more authority in the future. The committee also heard testimony on Kimberly Algos and Terry Fisher. Algos was described by HTA and Tokioka as a strong leader and solid board member; Tokioka explained that she and another co-chair were selected because of their busy schedules and that the advisory board’s committees were created so members could contribute beyond the single statutory duty of selecting the chair, president, and CEO. Fisher was supported for his tour-operator experience and strategic planning work. In questioning, he endorsed performance-based contracting and accountability for contractors, while acknowledging that external events can affect results. He also said the convention center is critical infrastructure that should be repaired and used to help fill tourism lulls and attract major conferences. The hearing included supportive testimony from industry representatives, but no votes or final actions were taken in the portion provided.

Summary: The committee on Energy and Environmental Protection heard several measures focused on water quality, waste management, aquifer protection, wastewater, and climate-related funding. SB 984 on water pollution drew opposition from DLNR and the Hawaii Cattlemen’s Council, with the latter arguing the bill could unfairly blame landowners for runoff caused by terrain and storm events; the chair noted there were also supporters and commenters submitted in writing. SB 639 on underground storage tanks received support from the Department of Health, the Board of Water Supply, and the Sierra Club, with testimony emphasizing environmental restoration standards after jet fuel releases; no opposition was noted in the live testimony. SB 946 on wastewater management was presented as clarifying that the ban on discharging wastewater or raw sewage into state waters applies to treatment plants, and it drew support from the County of Maui, DOH, and Hawaii Reef and Ocean Coalition, with no questions or opposition raised in the hearing. The committee also heard SB 438 on waste disposal facilities near significant aquifers. DOH and the Water Commission offered comments, while the City and County of Honolulu’s Department of Environmental Services opposed the bill because of a provision affecting ash recycling; the Board of Water Supply and Sierra Club supported the measure, and the Makakilo-Kapolei-Honokai Hale Neighborhood Board and Energy Justice Network raised concerns about fly ash and bottom ash recycling, landfill capacity, and potential contamination of aquifers. Testimony reflected a split between environmental protection concerns and arguments that the bill could block beneficial reuse of ash. The committee then took up HB 1395 on state funds, which would direct interest from the Emergency and Budget Reserve Fund to the general fund when the reserve exceeds the state’s target. The Governor’s office, emergency management, the State Energy Office, the Hawaiʻi Green Infrastructure Authority, the Nature Conservancy, and several other groups supported the bill’s climate-resilience intent, while the Tax Foundation and committee discussion raised concerns that the measure functioned mainly as a revenue transfer without a dedicated spending mechanism. Members discussed whether a special fund or legislative appropriation process would better ensure the money was used for climate mitigation and related projects.

Bills: SB5838, SB5960, SB6097
Summary: The committee heard testimony on Senate Bill 5838, which would add a federally recognized tribal representative to the State Board of Natural Resources beginning in 2026. The Department of Natural Resources commissioner and tribal affairs director supported the bill, saying a board seat would add a vote and direct participation in decisions affecting trust lands, while not replacing existing tribal consultation. Senator Kaufman, the prime sponsor, said the measure is about inclusion and equity and suggested she would be open to an amendment adding both an east-side and west-side tribal representative. Supporters from the Colville and Yakama tribes emphasized tribal forest management expertise and the importance of tribal voice in state land stewardship. Counties and some economic interests did not oppose tribal participation in principle but raised concerns about fiduciary duties to county trust beneficiaries and said they had not been consulted. The hearing closed with written testimony totals reported as 33 pro, 107 con, and 2 other. The committee then heard Senate Bill 5960, which would require Fish and Wildlife to designate certain ungulate populations as at risk when they fall 25% below a 10-year average and to begin predator mitigation, including possible wolf removals and translocation, along with annual reporting and renewed deer counts. Senator Short said the bill responds to declining deer herds and a lack of management balance, especially in northeast Washington. Supporters, including hunters, ranchers, and some conservation advocates, argued the bill would codify existing agency plans and respond to local declines. Opponents, including the Congressional Sportsmen’s Foundation, Kettle Range Conservation Group, Washington Wildlife First, Sierra Club, Humane World for Animals, and others, said state and university research shows wolves are not the main driver of ungulate declines, pointing instead to habitat, forage, drought, disease, and vehicle collisions; they warned predator control would have limited value and could worsen conflicts. The Department of Fish and Wildlife said it supports the intent of the bill but has concerns about feasibility, cost, and the need for legislative approval for some actions. Written testimony totals were reported as 1,197 pro, 352 con, and 2 other. In a work session on Lake Washington salmon predation, Larry Phillips and Muckleshoot Tribal fisheries director Jason Schaffler described efforts to reduce invasive and predatory fish in the Lake Washington system, including walleye, rock bass, yellow perch, smallmouth bass, American shad, and northern pike. They said these species are heavily impacting sockeye and Chinook smolts and that targeted suppression has already improved understanding and may improve salmon survival further. They asked for continued and modest sustained funding to expand removal efforts, noting prior state support and a recent King County emergency appropriation. Senators asked about the methods for suppression, invasive species prevention, and the effect of prior budget cuts; the presenters said larger fish are being selectively removed and that more programmatic funding would help scale the work. Finally, the committee heard Senate Bill 1697, which would add federally recognized tribes as eligible participants in the conservation futures program. Staff explained the program allows counties to levy a property tax for open space, timber, and farmland conservation, and the bill would extend eligibility to tribes with an estimated Department of Revenue fiscal note of about $273,000. The Washington Farmland Trust and Tulalip Tribe supported the bill, saying it would improve partnerships, allow tribes to access county conservation funds, and help preserve farmland, salmon habitat, and other lands for long-term stewardship. Tulalip described current collaborative conservation projects and said the change would be voluntary for counties, landowners, and tribes. Senator Short asked about county approval processes, and Tulalip explained that each county sets its own criteria and priorities for conservation futures projects.

Bills: SB2187
Summary: The joint House Tourism and Water and Land hearing focused on HB 1947, which would repeal the Hawaii Tourism Authority, create an Office of Tourism in DBEDT, and establish a Division of Destination Management in DLNR. The Attorney General opposed provisions allowing the new tourism office or advisory board to hire independent attorneys, and also noted civil service and transfer-of-functions issues, including the need for standard transition language for employees, contracts, records, and equipment. DNR said it stood on its written comments, while the Department of Taxation also stood on its written testimony. HTA opposed the bill, arguing that Act 132 had already improved its governance and that destination management should remain within a single, holistic tourism framework. HTA said it is better positioned to coordinate with counties, communities, and state agencies on both tourism promotion and mitigation of impacts, and pointed to its strategic plan and DMAP work as evidence. The County of Kauai Office of Economic Development also opposed the bill, saying tourism issues cross multiple agencies and that coordination is best handled by one entity rather than splitting responsibilities between DBEDT and DLNR. One member of the public testified in support with reservations, saying Hawaii needs stronger leadership and control, but also warning that dissolving HTA would be a major change. During questioning, committee members pressed HTA on why destination management should not simply be handled by DLNR if HTA already consults with it on land-use and conservation issues. HTA responded that its role is broader than conservation alone and includes balancing economic development, visitor management, and resident quality of life, while deferring to DLNR on matters within DLNR’s jurisdiction. The hearing then moved to decision-making, where the chairs announced amendments that removed the transfer of destination management to DLNR, added counties and state/county agency assistance to the Office of Tourism, and made other conforming changes. The House committees voted to recommend HB 1947 pass with amendments, with several members voting aye and some voting with reservations, and the hearing was adjourned.
