2021 Hawaii Revised Statutes|Title 19. Health|330C. Hawaii Poison Prevention Packaging Act|330C-4 Rules; implementation.

  §330C-4 Rules; implementation. The director shall carry out and effectuate the purpose of this chapter by rules adopted under chapter 91 including but not limited to the following:  (1) The director may establish in accordance with this chapter, by rule, standards for the special packaging of any household substance if the director finds that:  (A) The degree or nature of the hazard to children in the availability of such substance, by reason of its packaging, is such that special packaging is required to protect children from serious personal injury or serious illness resulting from handling, using, or ingesting such substance; and  (B) The special packaging to be required by such standard is technically feasible, practicable, and appropriate for such substance.  (2) In establishing a standard under this section, the director shall consider:  (A) The reasonableness of such standard;  (B) Available scientific, medical, and engineering data concerning special packaging and concerning childhood accidental ingestions, illness, and injury caused by household substances;  (C) The manufacturing practices of industries affected by this chapter; and  (D) The nature and use of the household substance.  (3) In carrying out this chapter, the director shall publish the director's findings, the director's reasons therefor, and citation of the sections of statutes which authorize the director's action.  (4) Nothing in this chapter shall authorize the director to prescribe specific packaging designs, product content, package quantity, or, with the exception of authority granted in section 330C-5(a)(2), labeling. In the case of a household substance for which special packaging is required pursuant to a rule under this section, the director may in such rule prohibit the packaging of such substance in packages which the director determines are unnecessarily attractive to children.  (5) Compliance with federal regulations prescribing standards issued pursuant to the Federal Act shall be deemed in compliance with this chapter. [L 1974, c 216, pt of §1; gen ch 1985]

 §330C-5 Conventional packages, marketing, labeling statements. (a) For the purposes of making any household substance which is subject to a standard established under section 330C-4 readily available to elder or handicapped persons unable to use such substance when packaged in compliance with such standard, the manufacturer or packer, as the case may be, may package any household substance, subject to such a standard, in packaging of a single size which does not comply with such standard if:  (1) The manufacturer or packer also supplies such substance in packages which comply with such standard; and  (2) The packages of such substance which do not meet such standard bear conspicuous labeling stating: "This package for households without young children"; except that the director may by rule prescribe a substitute statement to the same effect for packaging too small to accommodate such labeling.  (b) In the case of a household substance which is subject to such a standard and which is dispensed pursuant to an order of a physician, dentist, or other licensed medical practitioner authorized to prescribe, such substance may be dispensed in noncomplying packages only when directed in such order or when requested by the purchaser.  (c) In the case of a household substance subject to such a standard which is packaged under subsection (a) in a noncomplying package, if the director determines that such substance is not also being supplied by a manufacturer or packer in popular size packages which comply with such standard, the director may, after giving the manufacturer or packer an opportunity to comply with the purposes of this chapter, by order require such substance to be packaged by such manufacturer or packer exclusively in special packaging complying with such standard if the director finds, after opportunity for hearing, that such exclusive use of special packaging is necessary to accomplish the purposes of this chapter.

Note Part heading added by L 1983, c 122, §3.  §333E-1 Findings and purpose. The legislature finds that:  (1) The State of Hawaii has a responsibility to provide support and services for individuals with developmental disabilities in order to support them in living self-determined lives according to section 333F-8;  (2) Several departments of the State are responsible for various support and services to individuals with developmental disabilities;  (3) Lack of coordination among the services and planning activities of the various departments of the State results in gaps in the spectrum of needed services, duplication of services, lack of clarity in responsibility for services, and poorly articulated inter-agency programs, thereby reducing the quality of programs for individuals with developmental disabilities;  (4) Because of specific mandates of the departments, it is essential that a body responsible for coordinating services and planning for individuals with developmental disabilities be established outside the departments responsible for support and services;  (5) There exists within the state department of health for administrative purposes only, a state council on developmental disabilities appointed by the governor and mandated by federal legislation, supported in large part by federal moneys and required by federal law to provide advocacy, capacity building, systemic change, planning, and coordinating activities, promoting interagency collaboration, and enhancing coordination to better serve individuals with developmental disabilities and their families;  (6) The purpose of this chapter is to establish the state council on developmental disabilities as the state agency responsible for coordinating services to individuals with developmental disabilities in Hawaii;  (7) Community participation is a major goal of the State, thus state and county agencies should adopt policies and regulations which will support individuals and their families to fully participate in their communities; and  (8) Family support is another major goal of the State in providing families of children with disabilities the support services necessary to support the family; to enable families of children with disabilities to nurture and enjoy their children at home; to enable families of children with disabilities to make informed choices and decisions regarding the nature of support, resources, services, and other assistance made available to the families; and to support family caregivers of adults with disabilities.

  §333E-2 Developmental disabilities, definitions. For the purposes of this chapter, the term "developmental disability" means a severe, chronic disability of a person which:  (1) Is attributable to a mental or physical impairment or combination of mental and physical impairments;  (2) Is manifested before the person attains age twenty-two;  (3) Is likely to continue indefinitely;  (4) Results in substantial functional limitations in three or more of the following areas of major life activity; self-care, receptive and expressive language, learning, mobility, self-direction, capacity for independent living, economic sufficiency; and  (5) Reflects the individual's need for a combination and sequence of special, interdisciplinary, or generic services, individualized support, or other forms of assistance that are lifelong or extended duration and are individually planned and coordinated. An individual from birth to age nine, who has a substantial developmental delay or specific congenital or acquired condition, may be considered to have a developmental disability without meeting three or more of the criteria described above, if the individual, without services and support, has a high probability of meeting those criteria later in life.
