Dear Chairs Baker and Inouye, and members:
RE: SB 376
I appreciate this opportunity to testify in support of SB 376.
I fully agree that statutory references to an interisland transmission system
should be removed from HRS, until such time as a consensus on such a system can be
reached.
I thank co-sponsors Baker, Inouye, Green, and Ruderman for addressing this
issue.
Respectfully submitted,
/7Harry Kim
Mayor
