BACKGROUND AND JUSTIFICATION (USE ADDITIONAL SHEETS AS NEEDED): <br /> Pursuant to Rule 2-3E of the Rules and Regulations of the Liquor Commission of the Department of Liquor <br /> Control of the County of Hawai'i, State of Hawaii, the Director is authorized to "designate a portion of fine <br /> monies collected for use in programs to promote compliance to liquor laws. Such programs may include, but <br /> is not limited to enforcement, public service announcements, promoting responsible drinking and driving, <br /> youth programs and education. <br /> 1) Continue public programs and education for youth: <br /> The BIIF athletic directors from high schools and elementary school teachers around the island have asked <br /> us to continue the DAT (Drug Alcohol Tobacco) Awareness Program. In this program, student-athletes learn <br /> DAT awareness and prevention and in turn, teach what they've learned to 4th and 5th graders in their <br /> respective feeder schools. These programs were previously funded through SPF-SIG funds which have <br /> since terminated.Thus, based on the requests from the athletic directors and elementary school teachers, we <br /> will keep this program alive for the foreseeable future as it benefits both high school and elementary school <br /> youth. <br /> 2) Take advantage of a training opportunity being held in Hawaii: <br /> The 2013 National Conference of State Liquor Administrators' will be held in Honolulu this June. This will <br /> give us a chance to provide national level training to as many of our Commissioners, Board Members and <br /> staff as possible at a lower cost, due to the reduced travel cost. <br /> SIGNED: DATE: I;l. 7 2013 <br /> Department Head <br />
