Council Testimony
In support support Bee Bill 144
I'm sure you have more eloquent information about the benefits from the perspectives of bee keepers, so
I'lljust say that I farm, among otherthings, and supporting bee keeping is keyto success of our crops
worldwide, in Hawaii and on Hawaii island.
As often is the case, past laws and regulations based upon lack of information can prohibitfolks from
doingwhat makes sense. From what I understand, this change with bill 114 makes changes that are
more inke8pingvvithcurrent and vetted info[Ol8tiODthatnnoin1oinshunO8Oh88bhandamfetvvVhiie
ensuring bees are kept responsibly and in ways that supportthe critical role they serve.
Please dnwhat you can tOhelp USat[ feed ourselves.
