Dear Chair Tokuda and Committee Members:
RE: HB1351, HD1, SD1
Relating to the Electronic Device Recycling Fund
Thank you for this opportunity to testify in support of HB 1351, HD1, SD1.
It is my understanding that in FY 2013 and FY 2014, Hawaii County received
about $100,000 each year for electronics recycling. The purpose of HB 1351 is to
restore that funding, and we would very much appreciate that help.
Respectfully submitted,
Harry Kim
Mayor
