They make half of the world's oxygen and play an important role in the island's coastal infrastructure, beaches, and community. The chemical compounds contained in non-mineral sunscreen inhibit coral growth and degrade the integrity of our reefs. This ordinance aims to preserve the health, safety, and welfare of humans and the environment by allowing only mineral sunscreens to be provided, sold, offered for sale, or distributed in the County. I submit my testimony in strong support of Bill 167. 1,0 aca Mahalo nui loa, rsa Madilyn Hays 7th-Grade Student , 9 . 50-2; 7J Kihei Charter School Maui, Hawai`i Comm.No 1,13b Ref:To: P(CR N PAG Ref.Date MAY 1 '7 2072 1
