How publication rack spaces are assigned

(a) The director shall, by rules adopted under HRS Chapter 91, determine and provide procedures for the allocation of publication dispensing rack spaces pursuant to § 13-11.6 (c)(1) by lottery or other method of random selection. (b) The director shall, by rules adopted under HRS Chapter 91, determine and provide procedures for the reallocation pursuant to § 13-11.6 (c)(2) of publication dispensing rack spaces that are unallocated, abandoned, or surrendered by lottery or other method of random selection. (c) The methods for allocation and reallocation of publication dispensing rack spaces shall not distinguish between publications for which payment is required and publications for which no payment is required. (d) The method for allocation of publication dispensing rack spaces established by the director under subsection (a) shall: (1) Provide each publication for which an application is submitted for spaces in 12-inch publication dispensing rack enclosures with an equal opportunity to be allocated a publication dispensing rack space in a 12-inch publication dispensing rack enclosure; and (2) Provide each publication applying for spaces in 24-inch publication dispensing rack enclosures with an equal opportunity to be allocated a space in a 24-inch publication dispensing rack enclosure. This provision shall not apply to the spaces allocated after a publication has been allocated the maximum number of spaces for which it applied. (e) The rules adopted under subsections (a) and (b) may provide for the allocation or reallocation of spaces in the 12-inch publication dispensing rack enclosures to be made at a different time or on a different date than the allocation or reallocation of spaces in the 24-inch publication dispensing rack enclosures.
