Establishes an invasive species placard program for plant nurseries in Hawaii.
The bill mandates the Department of Agriculture to create and implement an invasive species placard program for plant nurseries. This program aims to prevent the spread of pests through the sale of nursery stock, promote best management practices, and inform the public about inspection results. The program will use green, yellow, and red placards to indicate pest status, authorize administrative inspections, and set standards for placard issuance. Locations with red placards must take corrective actions, including quarantining or destroying infested stock.
