HRS §146-21
Keeping cattle hides for inspection after slaughter
If you slaughter cattle for sale as food, you must keep the hide for two weeks so anyone can look at it during business hours. You can get rid of it sooner only with written permission from the brand-recording officer. This rule does not apply if you slaughter for your own or your family's use.
