Hawaii SB16 amends aquarium fish permit regulations to support the aquaculture industry.
Hawaii SB16 aims to support the state's aquaculture industry by exempting aquaculture research from aquarium fish permit requirements, amending the definition of "aquarium purposes," and defining "aquaculture research." The bill seeks to alleviate complications caused by the Umberger v. Department of Land and Natural Resources ruling, which hindered the aquaculture industry. Aquaculture research activities will be governed by rules adopted by the department.
