A BILL FOR AN ACT
relating to fireworks labeling.
BE IT ENACTED BY THE LEGISLATURE OF THE STATE OF HAWAII:
SECTION 1. The legislature finds that labeling dimensions for display fireworks, articles pyrotechnic, or aerial devices were incorrectly transcribed in the current statute.
The purpose of this Act is to provide correct labeling dimensions for display fireworks, articles pyrotechnic, or aerial devices.
SECTION 2. Section 132D-16.5, Hawaii Revised Statutes, is amended by amending subsection (b) to read as follows:
"(b)
Each shell, mine, comet, and
multiple tube device, such as finale or barrage boxes, roman candle batteries,
or cakes, shall bear a permanent label listing the licensee's name, address,
and contact information to include telephone number or electronic mail
address. The label shall also list the
name and business address of the manufacturer.
The label shall be approved by the state fire council and conform to the
following standards:
(1) Numerals and letters of the printed matter shall be not less than one-eighth of an inch high;
(2) Required statements shall be printed in a color that contrasts sharply with the background and shall be printed within a borderline; and
(3) The label shall
measure at least nine [inches by nine] square inches; provided
that if the size of the shell, mine, comet, or multiple tube device is too
small to correctly display a label of this size, the label may be reduced to a
size no smaller than necessary to properly display the information described in
this section."
SECTION 3. Statutory material to be repealed is bracketed and stricken. New statutory material is underscored.
SECTION 4. This Act shall take effect upon its approval.
