  • Testimony in Support of HB857 Relating to Sustainability Committee on Agriculture Representative Jessica Wooley, Chair Represent
    EXECUTIVE CHAMBERS NEIL ABERCROMBIE GOVERNOR HONOLULU Testimony in support of HB857 Relating to Sustainability Committee on Agriculture Representative Jessica Wooley, Chair Representative Richard H.K. Onishi, Vice Chair Committee on Energy and Environmental Protection Representative Chris Lee, Chair Representative Cynthia Thielen, Vice Chair February 12, 2013 8:30 am Room 325 Chair Wooley, Vice Chair Onishi, Chair Lee, Vice Chair Thielen, and members of the committees: The Office of the Governor supports Senate Bill 1088, Relating to Sustainability. This measure will redistribute Hawaii’s Environmental Response, Energy, and Food Security Tax, otherwise known as the Barrel Tax, to go to the initially intended purposes of energy diversification and food safety and security, rather than the general fund. This measure would also make this law permanent. The redistribution of Barrel Tax funds as proposed in this measure has been accounted for in the Administration’s financial plan, and will help us move forward toward Hawaii’s sustainability goals and build self- sufficiency. The redistribution of these funds is estimated to add over $7 million each to the Agricultural Development and Food Security Special Fund and Energy Security Special Fund, and $1.4 million to the Environmental Response Revolving Fund. These funds would support clean energy, local agricultural production, and environmental response. We need to look toward the long-term future of Hawaii and address the demands of the 21st century, for the sake of Hawaii’s children. We need to take action to protect our land, reduce our reliance on fossil fuels and find alternative energy resources, and grow and sustain local agriculture, so that we may attain the goal of self-sufficiency.
