HB 108-BOARD OF MARINE PILOTS CHAIR ELLIS announced CSHB 108(L&C) to be up for consideration. AL CLOUGH, Chair of the Board of Marine Pilots, said he is also Deputy Commissioner for the Department of Commerce, Community & Economic Development (DCCED). He said the board fully supported this bill as written. CHAIR ELLIS asked if the Legislative Auditor recommended extending the board. MR. CLOUGH answered yes. PAT DAVIDSON, Legislative Auditor, said she recommended that it have only a six-year extension because she identified operation issues she thought the board needed to deal with. One of those is making better progress on rate-setting issues. 2:55:31 PM PAUL FUHS, Southwest Pilots Association, said he would answer question they might have. He gave a brief overview saying the board maintains its balance of two pilots, two agents and two public members. It sets training, points of pick up and also sets a tariff that can be challenged. It is a required state activity to have a pilot so they can't go on strike and stop commerce. He supported the bill. CHAIR ELLIS said he would hold HB 108 for a meeting in the near future. There being no further business to come before the committee, he adjourned the meeting at 2:57:36 PM.
