Bill Summary
Exempts commercial measuring devices utilized in taxicabs from the requirement that the Department of Agriculture and Biosecurity Measurement Standards Branch inspect and test all measurement standards and measuring devices.
AI Summary
This bill amends a Hawaii law that requires the Department of Agriculture and Biosecurity's Measurement Standards Branch to inspect and test all measurement standards and measuring devices used in the state for accuracy, including those used to determine the measurement of commodities sold, compute charges for services based on measure, and determine measurement when a fee is charged. The amendment specifically exempts commercial measuring devices used in taxicabs from this inspection and testing requirement, meaning these devices will no longer need to be checked by the state to ensure they are accurate.
