Pursuant to Section 2(g) of Rule 4 of the Rules of Procedure of the Council of the County of
Hawaii, this written request is submitted with my approval that the above-referenced matter be
waived from the Environmental Management Committee to the full Council for immediate
action. In reviewing this matter, timely approval is crucial. It is therefore advantageous that
approval is granted and the matter placed onto the next Council agenda for review. However, in
the event this request is denied, for whatever reason, I understand the matter shall be referred to
the Environmental Management Committee for placement on its future agenda.
