| 47 | 47 | | SECTION 1. The legislature finds that some plantation era reservoirs across the State, including locations on Maui county, are on lands sold by plantation landowners to developers. Following the sale, developers constructed subdivisions, often including dams and appurtenances, including reservoirs and spillways, within deeds to the homeowners or a homeowner's association. However, the dams and appurtenances located on the subdivision are not properly maintained. During periods of extreme weather, the surrounding neighborhoods face significant risks from flooding. Despite potential hazards posed by the dams and appurtenances, the department of land and natural resources consider the dams and appurtenances to be privately owned and the responsibility of homeowners or homeowner's associations to maintain proper safety standards. Costly permits are required to conduct repairs or removal, which results in dams and appurtenances remaining in an unsafe state. Therefore, the purpose of this Act is to: (1) Establish a dam and appurtenance improvement loan program for eligible expenses relating to plans, design, construction, and equipment used to improve deficient dams and appurtenances as determined by the department of land and natural resources; (2) Establish a dam and appurtenance improvement revolving fund to deposit proceeds from the dam and appurtenance improvement loan program; (3) Establish a dam and appurtenance improvement grant program to provide private dam or appurtenance owners with funds for plans, design, construction, and equipment used to improve deficient dams and appurtenances as determined by the department of land and natural resources; and (4) Establish a dam and appurtenance improvement tax credit for qualifying expenditures for the improvement of deficient dams and appurtenances. SECTION 2. Chapter 179D, Hawaii Revised Statutes, is amended by adding three new sections to part II to be appropriately designated and to read as follows: "§179D- Dam and appurtenance improvement loan program. (a) There is established a dam and appurtenance improvement loan program, which shall be a loan program as defined under section 39-51. The program shall be administered by the department in a manner consistent with chapter 39, part III. (b) Loans shall be used for plans, design, construction, and equipment that is utilized to improve deficient high hazard and significant hazard dams and appurtenances as determined by the department. Loans shall not exceed $ for a term not to exceed forty years. (c) All loans approved and administered by this section shall require board approval and shall be subject to conditions imposed by the board. §179D- Dam and appurtenance improvement grant program. (a) There is established a dam and appurtenance improvement grant program, to be developed and administered by the department for the improvement of deficient dams in the State. (b) The dam and appurtenance improvement grant program shall provide funding to private dam owners for plans, design, construction, and equipment that is used to improve deficient dams and appurtenances as determined by the department. (c) Grants awarded under the program shall not exceed $ . All awards shall be approved by the board prior to disbursement and shall be subject to conditions imposed by the board. (d) The department may award grants based on criteria that shall be developed by the department. Applicants shall meet the following requirements: (1) The applicant shall be an owner of a high hazard or significant hazard dam or appurtenance that is regulated under this chapter; (2) The applicant shall be the owner of a regulated dam or appurtenance that has been determined to have one or more deficiencies; provided that priority shall be given to dams or appurtenances rated to be in poor or unsatisfactory condition; (3) The applicant shall indicate on the application that the proposed plans, design, construction, and equipment shall be intended for remediation of the dam or appurtenance and not seek to remove the dam or appurtenance; (4) If the applicant is an organization, the entity shall: (A) Be licensed to conduct business in the State of Hawaii; and (B) Have bylaws or policies that describe the manner in which business is conducted, prohibit nepotism, and provide for the management of potential conflict of interest situations; (5) The applicant shall comply with all applicable federal and state laws prohibiting discrimination against any person on the basis of race, color, national origin, religion, creed, sex, age, sexual orientation, disability, or any other characteristic protected under applicable federal or state law; (6) The grant shall not be used for purposes of entertainment or perquisites; (7) All activities and improvements undertaken with funds received shall comply with applicable federal, state, and county statutes and ordinances, including applicable building codes and agency rules; (8) The applicant shall agree to make available to the department all records the applicant may have relating to the grant and allow state agencies to monitor the applicant's compliance with the purpose of this chapter; (9) The applicant shall establish, to the satisfaction of the department, that sufficient funds are available for the completion of plans, design, and construction, or equipment needed for the purpose for which the grant is awarded; and (10) The applicant shall comply with other requirements or conditions as the department or board may prescribe. §179D- Dam and appurtenance improvement revolving fund. (a) There is established within the state treasury a revolving fund to be known as the dam and appurtenance improvement revolving fund, which shall be administered by the department and into which shall be deposited all revenues from the dam and appurtenance improvement loan program and appropriations made by the legislature to the fund. (b) Moneys from the fund shall be expended by the department to support the awarding of loans or grants under the dam and appurtenance improvement loan or grant program for eligible private dam and appurtenance owners."

If a deduction is taken under section 179 (with respect to election to expense depreciable business assets) of the Internal Revenue Code, no tax credit shall be allowed for that portion of the qualified dam and appurtenance improvement costs for which a deduction was taken. The basis of eligible property for depreciation or accelerated cost recovery system purposes for state income taxes shall be reduced by the amount of credit allowable and claimed. No deduction shall be allowed for that portion of otherwise deductible qualified dam and appurtenance improvement costs on which a credit is claimed under this section. (d) If the credit under this section exceeds the taxpayer's net income tax liability for the taxable year, the excess of the credit over liability shall be refunded to the taxpayer; provided that no refunds or payments on account of the credits allowed by this section shall be made for amounts less than $1. All claims for a tax credit under this section, including amended claims, shall be filed on or before the end of the twelfth month following the close of the taxable year for which the credit is claimed. Failure to comply with the foregoing provision shall constitute a waiver of the right to claim the credit.

(h) For purposes of this section, "qualified dam and appurtenance improvement costs" means plans, design, construction, and equipment that is used to improve deficient dams and appurtenances necessary to bring such structures up to code, as determined by the department of land and natural resources." SECTION 4.
