Nishihara, Chair <br />Committee on Public Safety <br />Senator Kaiali`i Kahele, Chair <br />Committee on Water and Land <br />Dear Chair Nishihara, Chair Kahele, and Committee Members: <br />RE: SB 875 Relating to Making an Appropriation for State Lifeguards <br />Thank you for this opportunity to testify in support of SB 875, which would fund lifeguard <br />services at Kua Bay in Kekaha Kai State Park. <br />Kua Bay is one of the most beautiful locations in the islands, but its hidden hazards can prove <br />deadly. It is now easily accessible, so for the sake of locals and visitors alike, a lifeguard at that <br />location is definitely warranted and would be much appreciated. <br />Please act favorably on SB 875. <br />Respgctfully Submitted, <br />Harry Kim <br />MAYOR <br />County of Hawaii is an Equal Opportunity Provider and Employer. <br />
