Hawaii to Host Its First Regional
UA Apprenticeship Contest
F
or the first time ever the Plumbers & Fitters Local Union 675
will be hosting the UA District 5 Regional Apprenticeship Contest
expecting to attract entries from l0 western states.
According to business manager Reginald Castanares, the popular
competition is scheduled for June 12-14, the contest venues at both the
Pearl City and the Iwilei training centers.
“We’re, of course, excited that our eligible member contestants can
be at home for a change and focus on all aspects of their specialties,” said
Harold McDermott, Local 675-PAMCAH apprenticeship coordinator.
Mainland contestants will be from Alaska, Arizona, California,
Colorado, Idaho, Nevada, New Mexico, Oregon, Utah, and Washington.
The Hilton Hawaiian Village will be the contest headquarters
where the participants will be housed. They will likely be joined by their
respective training staffers, families and friends, a boost for the economy,
Castanares said.
Participating local unions are to register their contestants with
Armando Pulido of the A & J Training Trust by May 15, with
registration scheduled the day before the three-day competition begins.
The awards banquet will be on Friday, June 14, at the hotel, at 7:15 p.m.

Reinforcing Fellowship
in Our Political Quests
Reginald Castanares,
Business Manager/Financial Secretary
A
mong the many things we learn during our school
years is that those who aspire to help run our government are freely elected by eligible voters. Once
in office the elected collectively will determine additions
and changes to our laws. What passes are aimed to improve
people’s lives and the institutions they rely on to make for a
better and happier life.
Sounds elementary, admittedly, but it’s how democracy
works.
What makes the job of legislators difficult is that bills
submitted generally invite debate and conflicting testimonies.
While we closely scrutinize any bill that affects the
economy, education, and public health and safety, as part of
the construction industry we also key on issues that promote
and enhance the rights of workers. Because the occupations
and professions are diverse and have special interests, lobbyists belong either to a management or an organized labor
organization. Some do work together, many, though, have
differences.
Historically the Plumbers Union officially began as a
lobbying force only after the industry began negotiating collective bargaining agreements. What it meant was that each
group found it necessary to develop its own legislative package even though some share common interests.
What has made the Plumbers Union a shade different
than most other craft unions is that it is among just a mere
handful that requires its graduated journey workers to be also
state-licensed. We have extended the concept this session to
include hopefully fire sprinkler and air conditioning refrigeration mechanics. The thrust of such desirable changes is to
ensure the public that these added categories meet minimum
public safety requirements.
To back up that requirement our training program in
recent years installed curriculum changes to prepare journey workers to pass the state exam qualifying them for their
specialty license. We’re pleased the State Labor as well as
Commerce departments support our position.
We also favor the push to return the procurement functions associated with the bidding/awarding of state projects to a single central agency. We are not involved in the
University of Hawaii’s current dilemma. However, it appears
reasonable and possibly economical the job that entails the
awarding of state construction contracts be best administered by a single agency – in this situation, the Department
of Accounting & General Services - which has provided the
function, historically and effectively.
We are thankful of our lobbying team’s efforts and
equally, your understanding as a member as well.
Fed Apprenticeship Office Closes, State Assuming Some Functions
The year-end shutdown of the Federal Department of Labor’s Apprenticeship Hawaii office after its administrator, Alfred B. Valles, retired, has led to the recovery of the functions that he had assisted with, back to the State’s
Workforce Development Division. The Fed’s San Francisco office will provide services as needed, the state has been
informed.
Elaine Young, WDD head for the State Labor Department, confirmed there will be no loss in services except that
it will bank almost entirely on technology to convey required information because of the state’s budget constraints.
“Al Valles was an extraordinary innovator initiating new training programs here and outlying Pacific islands. He will
be missed,” Young said in extolling him as truly “the dean of apprenticeship.”
She and department director, Dwight Takamine, placed the shutdown to budget cutbacks, worsened by the current
sequestration, but they expressed hope of at least maintaining the service level crucial to existing training programs.

Must Wait Till 2014 Session
House Stalls Senate-Cleared Plumbing Industry Bill
The plumbing industry fell short in
gaining passage of its primary legislation
this current state session after the House
Speaker referred to three committees a
Senate-passed bill aimed at setting licensing requirements for journey workers in air conditioning, refrigeration
and fire sprinklers. The triple referral
signaled the end this current run for the
bill’s further serious deliberation in light
of the session officially closing May 3.
“At least it wasn’t killed outright. It
needs only House approval in the 2014
session when likely the two houses will
compromise on its final form,” commented Union Local 675 advocate
Glenn Ida. “We’re encouraged the measure
– Senate Bill 1301 Senate Draft 1 –
has the backing of two strategic State
agencies - the board of electricians and
plumbers with the Commerce & Consumer Protection Department as well
as the Labor & Industrial Relations
Department,” he pointed out.
“Our industry has adhered to the
practice of ensuring workers in their
various specialties are qualified to recognize public health and safety issues
on the project,” Ida said. “There are
no shortcuts and the fact we insist our
workers are given appropriate training should comfort consumers and the
general public.”
Hawaii is among 44 states with ties
to national parent, the United Association (UA), that requires the licensing of
plumbers. Local Union 675 is hopeful
licensing will be extended to the industry’s related specialties with pending
passage of SB 1301, business manager
Reginald Castanares said.
Another legislative target, though,
has a fair chance of passage. The House
passed HB 114 transfer administration
of the procurement function from the
University of Hawaii president to the
University’s chief procurement officer on
all purchases associated to construction
contracts. Now in the Senate, the bill
was due for a joint hearing at the time of
this publication’s deadline. Senate committees involved are Higher Education,
Economic Development, Government
Operations & Housing, and Ways &
Means.
Local 675 lobbyist Glenn Ida confers with Rosalyn
Baker, chair of the Senate Commerce and Consumer Protection Committee and introducer of the
AC/Sprinkler license bill.
Various construction industry
elements, including Local 675, had
additionally favored turning back
construction awards for UH facilities
to the Department of Accounting &
General Services. The bill as passed
by the House limits the change to only
procurement administration, an issue
that was raised early this year by Senate
President Donna Kim.
Meet Hawaii’s New Team in
Congress and Their Top Aides
The beaming fresh faces who recently took up half of the islander-occupied Congressional seats may be unfamiliar to regular visitors these early months on Capitol
Hill but that should soon change, given their outgoing and winsome persona.
That is what island-based advocates sense, including your Ha‘aheo editor. In
early February on his ninth annual advocacy trip as backer of the needs of ALS
victims (the Lou Gehrig disease) the welcome from each officeholder was casual
reflecting local-style uniqueness as it has been in prior visits-warm, gracious, and
importantly, result-wise, accommodating.
While our idolized two Dans – Inouye and Akaka – are dearly missed, locals
are more than hopeful their replacements are up to the challenge of
building their own respective records as each pursues Hawaii’s priority
interests.
Hawaii’s Washington “Big 4” have at the helm for their respective
staffs individuals savvy on national and island issues and the polish to
motivate other staff colleagues stationed either at the Beltway or
home quarters.
They are Andrew Winer, for our new senior Senator Brian
Schatz; Betsy Lin, for Senator Mazie Hirono; Rod Tanonaka,
for Representative Colleen Hanabusa; and Amy Asselbaye,
for Representative Tulsi Gabbard.
If there is a unifying factor among Hawaii’s new
Congressional quartet, it is a shared belief that
collaboration on the key issues that affect
the country makes them a unique
team in the nation’s capitol.

LG Shan Tsutsui
Valley Islander Offers Fresh Slant on State Leadership
a decade in various marketing and
consulting capacities in finance and
investments and briefly was the owner/
operator of Keiki Time. He was also
active with various Maui community
business groups and in spare hours
coached tennis (which he savored
on the high school varsity}. The
court sport was where he met Stan
Nagamatsu, his coach and who remains
a personal inspiration.
“I feel at times my life is wrapped
around disbeliefs,” the man now
in the lieutenant governor’s chair
chuckled.
As example, he pointed out,
his mother had a name picked out
before his birth nearly 42 years ago.
She was enchanted with the name
“Shannon” and may have been
willing to bet the gender would be
female. The new parents, no doubt,
compromised and thus emerged
the rare and now familiar sobriquet
Shan.
Shan Tsutsui named Hawaii’s 12th Lieutenant
Governor.
The short-lived name
episode was like a forerunner
of unforeseeable surprises that seems to envelop
Shan Tsutsui as he charts his goals. “Since early
childhood the mix of curiosity and interest in almost anything somehow magnetized me to all kinds of people,
a trait, I suspect, my mom had much to do with but
she never claims she was that persuasive,” he judiciously
clarified with quiet pride.
What likely evolved in the process was a set of values
that has tempered and guided his outlook through
his formative years. Raised in a rural, tranquil setting
probably had much to do with the latter. That environment would typically depict any Neighbor Island locale.
The Tsutsuis, embedded in semi-urbanized Wailuku,
enjoy the virtual absence of distractions that normally visitors
and residents ascribe to a metropolis.
“As youngsters, we hung together because we have tightknit neighborhoods and that fosters lifelong friendships.
Moreover, the community elders are often accessible and
freely offer sage advice along with admonition,” Tsutsui
said. “I continue to count on them, esteemed folks like
former House Speaker Elmer Cravalho and community icon
Masaru (Pundy) Yokouchi, as among my resources. They
remind that while technology undergoes constant flux ageold values remain important to sustain us in all situations,”
he deduced.
Tsutsui’s assessment is a candid overview of what has
sparked his underplayed achievements, from the time elected
Maui High School senior class president to the heady
transition to a state legislator who virtually overnight became
the youngest ever State Senate president.
After obtaining a degree in economics from the
University of Hawaii-Manoa in 1994, he spent nearly
When a Maui seat for state senator
was available in 2002 senior Democrats
on the island coaxed him into running,
convinced Tsutsui possessed the
diversified background to responsibly
handle a new, formidable challenge.
“I’ve noticed more islanders are warmed up to the belief
that Neighbor Islanders have long been qualified to run for
political office at all levels,” he avers. “That is in fact quite
critical as we see more chunks of valuable island properties,
including the recent purchase of almost an entire island, sold
to outside interests with little or no tie to our history and
people,” he lamented. “We will always face bleak economic
times but it is no reason to sell our birthright,” he insisted.
U.S. Senator Daniel Inouye’s unexpected death just
before the recent year-end holidays was akin to unleashing
a political tsunami. It created an upheaval at the highest
political levels that many contend might result in further
repercussions come the 2014 elections. Tsutsui was a
“benefactor” though he expressed initial reluctance to take
the seat vacated by Lt. Gov. Brian Schatz, who Governor
Neil Abercrombie named to fill the senior senator post in
Congress. Tsutsui, upon moving in as LG, was replaced as
State Senate president by Donna Mercado Kim by vote of
her peers.
Tsutsui’s expressed reluctance initially was based on
a personal desire to keep his Wailuku political home base
important to his Maui County constituents. The governor
fortunately agreed it would be an opportunity to get the
Neighbor Isles more noticeable in the political mainstream by
having a resident in one of the state’s top offices.
In addition, the new LG may have renewed interest in an
old issue, hoping voters will give it real serious thought: reamend the state Constitution to allow the Governor upon his
election to name his LG, in the same vein the U.S. President
picks the Vice President.
While not yet a broiling issue Tsutsui calmly says “it’s not

ow best to describe the state
of our sector’s job-load may be
the word ‘sporadic’. It’s more
reflective on the Neighbor Islands given
the many projects being caught in a
stop-go-stop roller-coaster when funding turns stagnant.
Economists feel, however, 2013
looks bright. We hope they’re right.
Jobs, ongoing and in the pipeline
include the following, according to our
field agents:
Big Island: Kona area – Kona
Kaiser Hospital, Mauna Lani renovation, Kamakana housing, Kings Land
Phase 2, Palama Nui West Hawaii College; and Kona Juidiciary complex. Hilo
area –Hu Honua Power plant, UH-Hilo
Hawaiian Language building, Aina Koa

the College of Pharmacy.
Maui: Andaz Resort Hotel, Wailea;
Police Department, Kihei; Safeway, Kahului; Puu Kukui Elementary, Wailuku;
Westin Maui Resort, Kaanapali; and
Hyattt Regency Maui, Kaanapali.

and also for his conscientious commu-

Also honored at the JA ceremony
were still-at-work building contractor
Ralph S. Inouye, at 98 its most senior awardee to date, and Hilo-based architect Russell Oda.
Officials Forecast Banner Year At Kickoff Building Trades Event
A bustling year for construction was projected by Governor Neil Abercrombie after he had sworn in Reginald
Castanares as returning president and other officers of the
Hawaii Building & Construction Trades Council at its
kickoff luncheon in the Royal Hawaiian Hotel’s Monarch
Room.
In the throng of celebrants were legislators at all levels. Besides Castanares, also installed were vice president,
Damien Kim; financial secretary, Marc Yamane; and trustees
Douglas Fulp and Joseph O’Donnell. Council executive
director Kika Bukowski emceed.
The envisioned work – public and private – long overdue
in the state executive’s view complemented new Honolulu
mayor Kirk Caldwell’s pledge to unhinge the permitting
roadblocks that have been the Industry’s bane in the recent
lackluster years.
Abercrombie carried to the podium a log containing
dozens of CIP projects past the design stage now awaiting
construction bids, with a value he estimated at $40 million
per month.
“We need to look at ourselves,” he urged the mixed
audience of some 350, “to maximize the resources already
provided,” a reference to pending final approvals of changes
to the urban core in Kakaako and the looming developments
at Hoopili and Koa Ridge.
Plumbers Union chief Reggie Castanares, repeating as president of the Hawaii
Building & Construction Trades Council, celebrates with key political leaders,

Aloha Fun Run Keeps Industry Participants Limber, Healthy
“We made it!” had to be the sweetest sound heard
from exuberant finishersin the annual Aloha Fun Run
in the early hours of Presidents Day. And the more than
hundred participants sponsored again by Local Union
675 rejoiced after the 8.5 mile trek from Aloha Tower
to the Aloha Stadium where they enjoyed a hearty
Union-provided breakfast.
Recently retired Donovan Lewis enjoys the
Fun Run with family
after he also resigned
following five years
as Local Union 675
president. With him,
above, are daughter-inlaw Amy, son Donovan
Jr., and daughter
Genevieve Texeira. A
member since 1973, he
became a business agent
in 2007.
“It’s heartwarming so many enjoy this healthy
outing,” business manager Reggie Castanares, smiled
as he greeted each finisher.
Among early finishers, their official time is arguable
because it’s hard to determine when each officially started.
On “scout’s honor,” we’ll accept the time of 1 hour
17 minutes 25 seconds as the quickest finish among
Local 675’s runners. That was Dallas Sapla, 16, son
of Alaka’i Mechanical AC fitter George Sapla. Our
congratulations to all who finished, walkers and runners.
Strides behind Dallas were brothers Ikaika, 22,
and Keanu, 20, who with their retired plumber dad,
Randy Freitas, were clocked in at 1:20:48. Wife Lois
was in no hurry, joining the thousands oblivious to
“breaking records.” “I ran for the changing scenery at
sunrise – how beautiful,” she smiled.

the Governor’s prerogative, as it was

A matter he thinks has undeservedly
lacked attention with the position is
legal coverage of the LG’s expenses,

“Perhaps,” he surmised, “it’s because I’m
only the third of l3 in that chair not an
Oahu resident.” The previous two were
Big Islanders James Kealoha, under
first Governor Bill Quinn, and Nelson
Doi, who served a term under Governor
George Ariyoshi.
Tsutsui and wife Lydell, a school
teacher, have three public schoolattending daughters. He gets to be
with them Friday through Monday.
“The two-office arrangement is not
ideal, but is a start hopefully as an
incentive to encourage those public
service-minded,” he said.
Among current engagements is
heading a group to recommend the
best use of vacated public school
properties to boost state operations.
“This in time will be economically
beneficial,” he said.
