Pursuant to Chapter 91, Hawaii Revised Statutes, notice is hereby given that the Hawaii Department of Agriculture (Department) will hold public hearings to receive testimony on proposed amendments to chapter 4-29, Hawaii Administrative Rules, entitled "Dogs, Cats, and Other Carnivores."
\n Chapter 4-29, HAR is being amended to:
\n (1) Change definitions by: (a) simplifying the definitions "Animals", Board", Chairperson", "Department", "Groomer" and "Guest"; (b) amending "Airport Animal Quarantine Holding Facility", "Service Dog" and "User"; (c) adding the definitions "Current", "Eligibility Date", "Eligible Date", "Qualification Date", "Safeguard", "Service Animal" and "Veterinary Hospital"; (d) clarifying "designated address";
\n (2) Clarify "Oahu";
\n (3) Clarify procedures for carriers;
\n (4) Clarify "islands" concerning transiting private and commercial vessel responsibility;
\n (5) Reduce the minimum time required: (a) from the most recently administered rabies vaccine before arrival from 90 days to 30 days; (b) from a successful OIE-RVA test before arrival in Hawaii from 120 to 30 days;
\n (6) Require only the current rabies vaccination’s product name, booster interval, and date of vaccination be listed on the health certificate;
\n (7) Require owners to register their pet’s microchip number with the local county humane society or local animal welfare organization;
\n (8) Simplify a term from "early release" to "release";
\n (9) Add a new subsection to establish requirements for the importation of cloned animals derived from a pet donor originating in Hawaii;
\n (10) Clarify Guam as a "US territory" and replace "Hawaii" with "those of the state";
\n (11) Clarify, as pertaining to the State animal quarantine station: (a) movement of animals; (b) authority of the Animal Industry Division Administrator; (c) denying entrance into quarantine stations; and (d) the authority of station veterinarians to refer an animal to a veterinary facility for diagnostics and treatment not available at the station with or without owner authorization when in the best interest of the animal;
\n (12) Reduce the time period when an animal is considered abandoned in quarantine;
\n (13) Change fees in Section 4-29-17 for five-day or less quarantine, direct airport release; neighbor island inspection permit and re-entry;
\n (14) Repeal section 4-29-15 relating to use of an "apartment" on the Animal Quarantine Station that is not serviceable as a dwelling;
\n (15) Change "service dog" to "service animal" to reflect current Federal ADA language in Sections 4-29-15.1, 4-29-20, 4-29-21, 4-29-22, 4-29-23, 4-29-24 and 4-29-26, HAR; and
