On the recordOctober 24, 2000
Madam Speaker, S. 700, is to amend the National Trail System to designate the Ala Kahakai Trail as a national historic trail. This trail, known in English as The Trail by the Sea, is part of an important national trail used by the native Hawaiians. It is associated with numerous prehistoric areas and played a significant part in Hawaiian history, including the landing of Captain Cook. This bill will provide a necessary recreational resource to the State of Hawaii, and I urge my colleagues to support S. 700.
