The <br /> County was initially advised that funds would not be provided for this program for FY2014. <br /> However, on June 6, 2013, the DOH informed the County that grant funds in the amount of <br /> $483,933 would be provided in order to assist with the implementation of the DBC program and to <br /> operate certified redemption centers at select County recycling centers. <br /> Enclosed is a resolution authorizing the Mayor to enter into an agreement with the State of Hawai`i <br /> Department of Health for this grant. Also enclosed is a bill for an ordinance amending the <br /> Operating Budget by appropriating this $483,933 grant award.
