47	47	SECTION 1. The legislature finds that the devastating wildfires brought on by winds from Hurricane Dora on August 8, 2023, resulted in one of the worst natural disasters in the State's history. The wildfires caused loss of life and displacement of thousands on the island of Maui. The disaster also destroyed nearly all of Lahaina. The people of Hawaii and the world responded compassionately by coming together to support those on Maui who had survived the devastation with donation drives and relief efforts. Federal, state, and county agencies worked together with nonprofit organizations, including the American Red Cross, Hawaii Community Foundation, Maui United Way, and many others, on the emergency response and recovery efforts. The legislature further finds that to support response and recovery efforts and address immediate 2023 wildfire funding needs, the governor, through the seventh emergency proclamation relating to wildfires, dated September 8, 2023, and executive memorandum no. 23-08, redirected $164.1 million, after adjustments, from selected general fund operating appropriations from Act 164, Session Laws of Hawaii 2023, originally intended for specific purposes and capital improvement projects, to the department of budget and finance. The department of budget and finance subsequently transferred $65 million to the major disaster fund and set aside the remaining $99.1 million for the State's share of noncongregate housing and debris clean-up costs initially being paid by the Federal Emergency Management Agency. These steps, among others, allowed the State to address response and recovery expenses incurred thus far without cutting positions and departmental base budgets. The purpose of this Act is to continue the Hawaii wildfires disaster response and recovery efforts by: (1) Appropriating $452.2 million relating to the State's response to the Maui wildfires and statewide wildfire mitigation and response; and (2) Reauthorizing $160.2 million of general funded capital improvement project operating appropriations as general obligation bond funded appropriations. SECTION 2. There is appropriated out of the risk management revolving fund established by section 41D-4, Hawaii Revised Statutes, the sum of $200,000,000 or so much thereof as may be necessary for fiscal year 2024-2025 for insurance claim payments related to the Hawaii wildfires disaster that began on August 8, 2023. The sum appropriated shall be expended by the department of accounting and general services, state risk management and insurance administration (AGS 203), for the purposes of this Act, with the approval of the comptroller. SECTION 3. There is appropriated out of the general revenues of the State of Hawaii the sum of $186,160,000 or so much thereof as may be necessary for fiscal year 2024-2025 as a set-aside for recovery costs for the Hawaii wildfires disaster that began on August 8, 2023. The sum appropriated shall be expended by the department of budget and finance, departmental administration and budget division (BUF101), for the purposes of this Act; provided that, any law to the contrary notwithstanding, the governor may authorize the transfer of up to $186,160,000 in general funds to other state agencies for recovery costs for the Hawaii wildfires disaster that began on August 8, 2023; provided further that the governor shall submit a report to the legislature within five days of each use of this authority; provided further that the report shall include the date of transfer, the amount of the transfer, the program ID to which funds were transferred, and an explanation of the purpose of the transfer of resources; and provided further that the governor shall submit to the legislature a summary report containing the aforementioned information for each use of this authority for the previous twelve month period from December 1 to November 30 no later than thirty days prior to the convening of the regular sessions of 2025 and 2026. SECTION 4. There is appropriated out of the general revenues of the State of Hawaii the sum of $182,238 or so much thereof as may be necessary for fiscal year 2024-2025 for three full-time equivalent (3.0 FTE) positions in the department of business, economic development and tourism, statewide planning and coordination special plans branch, for Maui recovery efforts. The sum appropriated shall be expended by the department of business, economic development and tourism, statewide planning and coordination (BED 144), for the purposes of this Act. SECTION 5. There is appropriated out of the general revenues of the State of Hawaii the sum of $125,000 or so much thereof as may be necessary for fiscal year 2024-2025 for temporary libraries located in Makawao and Lahaina, Maui. The sum appropriated shall be expended by the Hawaii state public library system, public libraries (EDN407) for the purposes of this Act. SECTION 6. (a) The department of human services is authorized to fund six full-time equivalent (6.0 FTE) temporary positions to be funded by federal funds. (b) There is appropriated out of the general revenues of the State of Hawaii the sum of $13,370,000 or so much thereof as may be necessary for fiscal year 2024-2025, and the sum of $12,751,554 or so much thereof as may be necessary for fiscal year 2024-2025 in federal funds for emergency management related to the Hawaii wildfires that began on August 8, 2023. (c) The sums appropriated shall be expended by the department of human services, general administration DHS (HMS 904), for the purposes of this Act. SECTION 7.
