A BILL FOR AN ACT
MAKING AN EMERGENCY APPROPRIATION OUT OF THE BROWNFIELDS CLEANUP REVOLVING LOAN FUND.
BE IT ENACTED BY THE LEGISLATURE OF THE STATE OF HAWAII:
SECTION 1. This Act is recommended by the governor for immediate passage in accordance with section 9 of article VII of the Constitution of the State of Hawaii.
SECTION 2. A critical funding emergency exists. The department of business, economic development, and tourism received a grant of $2,000,000 from the federal Environmental Protection Agency for a brownfields cleanup revolving loan program to clean up contaminated sites. Funds under this grant must be disbursed by the end of fiscal year 2010-2011. The department of business, economic development, and tourism executed a loan with the department of Hawaiian home lands to clean up a contaminated site in Kapolei. Funds must be disbursed to the department of Hawaiian home lands in fiscal year 2010-2011. The existing ceiling of the brownfields cleanup revolving loan fund is $1,000,000. However, the funds that need to be disbursed exceed $1,000,000. Therefore, an appropriation increase to $2,000,000 out of the brownfields cleanup revolving loan fund is needed before the end of the fiscal year. This emergency appropriation is necessary in order for the State to address this shortfall.
The purpose of this Act is to appropriate additional moneys out of the brownfields cleanup revolving loan fund in order to complete the disbursement of funds to the department of Hawaiian home lands in fiscal year 2010-2011.
SECTION 3. Act 162, Session Laws of Hawaii 2009, as amended by Act 180, Session Laws of Hawaii 2010, is amended by amending item K-3 of section 3 to read as follows:
