RELATING TO INVASIVE SPECIES. Requires nursery stock that is infested with certain pests to be treated for the eradication of pests before the sale or transport of the nursery stock from one island to another island within the State or intraisland. Requires an element of gross negligence, rather than intent, for a violation of section 150A‑6(3) or (4), Hawaii Revised Statutes, relating to the importation, possession, or transportation of certain animals, plants, or equipment that is harmful to agriculture, horticulture, animals, public health, or natural resources. Eliminates the element of intent to propagate, sell, or release from the penalty for transporting, harboring, or importing prohibited animals or restricted plants, animals, or microorganisms without a permit and from the penalty for importing, possessing, harboring, transferring, or transporting any designated pest. Establishes an affirmative responsibility on the consignor of any landscape material or products, agricultural goods, construction materials, equipment, vehicles, soil, or sand to prevent the movement of invasive species in Hawaii.
