Subject: Bill 268, Draft 2, Relating to An Ordinance Amending Chapter 9 of the Hawaii County
Code 1983, Relating to the County Electrical Code.
Notice of Hearing
Date: Friday, July 22, 2011
Time: 9:00 AM
Place: West Hawaii Civic Center, Council Chambers
Dear Chairperson Yagong:
I am an electrical contractor licensed to do business in the State of Hawaii with a shop in
Hilo for the past 3 years. The majority of our work is performed within the Hawaii County. I
fully support Bill 268 with revisions. The intent and purpose of Bill 268 clarifies many issues
related to electrical work in the County but"Section 9-3 (3) Scope; exceptions" is too vague and
opens the door for anyone other than the utility company or licensed electrical contractor to
control and perform the work within a proposed boundary lines of a subdivision, proposed
subdivision under development, or an approved subdivision, where the work is planned or actual
roadways or other common infrastructure areas. An acceptable language should include that the
work should be performed exclusively by the utility company or contractor contracted to perform
the work for the utility company. Any and all work other than the utility company or its
contractor should be performed by an authorized licensed electrical contractor.
1 support Bill 268 with revision as described above. Thank you for the opportunity to provide
testimony on this issue..
Wavne Tovama
Vice President
