  §143-15 Contracts for seizing and impounding dogs. Any county may contract with any society or organization formed for the prevention of cruelty to animals, or similar dog protective organization, for the seizure and impounding of all unlicensed dogs, and for the maintenance of a shelter or pound for unlicensed dogs, and for lost, strayed, and homeless dogs, and for the destruction or other disposition of seized dogs not redeemed as provided in this chapter. The county may prescribe in the contract the manner in which the work is to be done by the society or organization and it may also direct the disposition to be made of all dogs seized pursuant to this chapter. [L 1941, c 268, §14; RL 1945, §7165; RL 1955, §156-15; HRS §143-15] Attorney General Opinions  The plain language and legislative history of this section and §143-16 made very clear that legislature intended to authorize county reliance upon private humane societies to impound stray dogs within their borders; this can be accomplished only if § §76-16(17) and 76-77(10) are interpreted broadly.

  §144-5 Inspection fees and tonnage reports. (a) There shall be paid to the department for all feeds distributed or imported for use or sale in this State, inspection fees as established by the rules of the department; provided that the department shall exempt by rule the payment of inspection fees on feed not subject to specific requirements of this chapter or rules adopted under this chapter. All inspection fees collected shall be deposited with the state director of finance to the credit of the general fund.  (b) Every person, except as hereinafter provided, who distributes or imports for use or sale feed in this State shall:  (1) File, not later than the last day of January, last day of April, last day of July, and last day of October of each year, quarterly statements, setting forth the number of net tons of feeds distributed or imported in this State during the preceding calendar quarter; and upon filing the statements shall pay the inspection fees. Inspection fees which are due and owing and have not been remitted to the department within thirty days following the due date shall have a penalty fee in an amount established by rules of the department added to the amount due when payment is finally made. The assessment of this penalty fee shall not prevent the department from taking other action as provided in this chapter. When more than one person is involved in the distribution or importation of a feed, the person who imports or distributes to the consumer is responsible for reporting the tonnage and paying the inspection fee unless the report and payment have been made by a prior distributor, seller, or exporter of the feed. The forms used for the quarterly statements shall be provided by the department.  (2) Keep such records as may be necessary or required by rules of the department to indicate accurately the tonnage of feed distributed in this State, and the department shall have the right to examine the records to verify statements of tonnage. Failure to make accurate statement of tonnage or to pay the inspection fee or to comply as provided herein shall constitute sufficient cause for the cancellation of all registrations on file for the distributor and the imposition of administrative penalties.  (c) The department may require the filing of further reports with respect to importation and distribution of feed by carriers, seller's agents, distributors, and named consignees.

(5) If any word, statement, or other information required by or under authority of this chapter to appear on the label or labeling is not prominently placed thereon with such conspicuousness (as compared with other words, statements, designs, or devices, in the labeling) and in such terms as to render it likely to be read and understood by the ordinary individual under customary conditions of purchase and use.

  §144-11 Detained feeds. (a) "Withdrawal from distribution" orders. When the department or its authorized agent has reasonable cause to believe any lot of feed is being distributed in violation of this chapter or of any of the prescribed rules under this chapter, it may issue and enforce a written or printed "withdrawal from distribution" order, warning the distributor not to dispose of the lot of feed in any manner until written permission is given by the department or the circuit court.

(b) "Condemnation and confiscation". Any lot of feed not in compliance with the chapter and rules shall be subject to seizure on complaint of the department to a court of competent jurisdiction in the area in which the feed is located. In the event the court finds the feed to be in violation of this chapter and rules and orders the condemnation of the feed, it shall be disposed of in any manner consistent with the quality of the feed and the laws of the State; provided that in no instance shall the disposition of the feed be ordered by the court without first giving the claimant an opportunity to apply to the court for release of the feed or for permission to process or relabel the feed to bring it into compliance with this chapter.

(c) Each county attorney or prosecuting attorney to whom any violation is reported shall cause appropriate proceedings to be instituted and prosecuted in a court of competent jurisdiction without delay. Before the department reports a violation for prosecution, an opportunity shall be given the distributor or owner to present the distributor's or owner's view to the department.
