Submitting for consideration and confirmation to the Board of Certification of Operating Personnel in Wastewater Treatment Plants, Gubernatorial Nominee, VIRGILIO VIERNES, for a term to expire 06-30-2029.

This bill is a gubernatorial nomination to appoint Virgilio Viernes to the Board of Certification of Operating Personnel in Wastewater Treatment Plants in Hawaii. The nomination is submitted by Governor Josh Green for confirmation by the state Senate and House of Representatives. If confirmed, Viernes will serve on the board until June 30, 2029, where the board oversees certification standards for wastewater treatment plant operators. This is an administrative appointment process rather than a new policy initiative, and it does not create new laws or regulations.
