AI Summary

  • Appropriates general revenues from the State of Hawaii for fiscal year 2016-2017 to the University of Hawaii College of Tropical Agriculture and Human Resources for restoration and preservation of historic relief maps of the Hawaiian islands.

  • The relief maps depict the seven primary Hawaiian islands and were constructed in 1936 to show agriculture; they have been used as teaching tools for approximately eight decades.

  • Maps require restoration due to fading, wear, and damage from frequent use; original molds are likely destroyed, making reproduction impossible.

  • Restoration work includes professional cleaning, repairing, repainting, and preserving the antique maps to restore them to their original condition.

  • Act takes effect on July 1, 2525 (note: specific appropriation amount is blank in the bill text).
