Urging The Division Of Boating And Ocean Recreation Of The Department Of Land And Natural Resources To Use Job Order Contracting For Boating And Ocean Recreation Facility Maintenance And Repair.
Impact
The advocacy for job order contracting is rooted in its potential to streamline services related to the maintenance and repair of facilities, such as dredging, bathroom, and pier repairs. This method is proposed to be more efficient, allowing multiple individual projects to be handled under a single contract, which could improve the speed and cost-efficiency of such maintenance works. This resolution means that the Division is encouraged to adopt a more systematic and effective approach to managing these facilities, which is crucial for maintaining public safety and preserving the environment.
Summary
Senate Concurrent Resolution 225 (SCR225) urges the Division of Boating and Ocean Recreation, under the Department of Land and Natural Resources, to implement job order contracting for the maintenance and repair of boating and ocean recreation facilities in Hawaii. The resolution emphasizes the importance of well-maintained facilities for the safety of both residents and visitors while enjoying the state's waters and beaches. It recognizes that poor maintenance can lead to injuries, property damage, and detrimental impacts on marine ecosystems and coral reefs.
Contention
While SCR225 supports a proactive approach to facility upkeep, there may be concerns regarding how job order contracting impacts existing contractual relationships and whether it might limit the number of vendors who can compete for maintenance contracts. Stakeholders in the boating community, environmental advocacy groups, and local businesses might weigh in on the effectiveness of this resolution and its implications for local economies and community engagement. Thus, while the resolution is framed positively, ongoing discussion about its implementation will be vital.
