Connecticut General Statutes Title 29. Public Safety and State Police § 29-420. Connecticut Fire-Safe Cigarette Directory. Appeal. Civil action

(a) Not later than July 1, 2008, the Office of the State Fire Marshal shall develop and make available for public inspection, on its web site and in such other forms as the State Fire Marshal deems appropriate, a Connecticut Fire Safe Cigarette Directory listing of all holders that have provided current certifications conforming to the requirements of section 29-419 and all cigarettes that are listed in such certifications. The State Fire Marshal shall update the directory as necessary in order to correct mistakes and to add or remove a holder or cigarette to keep the directory current and in conformity with the requirements of sections 29-416 to 29-421, inclusive.

(b) The State Fire Marshal shall not include or retain in such directory the cigarette of any holder if the holder: (1) Has failed to provide the required certification, (2) has failed to provide copies of reports, as required by subsection (d) of section 29-418, and more than sixty days have elapsed since the holder received the written request therefor, or (3) has provided a certification that the State Fire Marshal determines is not in compliance with the provisions of section 29-419, unless such violation has been remedied to the satisfaction of the State Fire Marshal.

(c) Any holder aggrieved by a determination by the State Fire Marshal not to include a cigarette in the directory maintained pursuant to this section or to remove such cigarette from the directory may apply, not later than thirty days after such determination, to the superior court for the judicial district of Hartford, which court may grant appropriate relief.

(d) If the State Fire Marshal determines that a holder of a cigarette manufacturer's license has violated a provision of this section or section 29-419, the Attorney General, upon referral from the State Fire Marshal, may bring a civil action in the superior court for the judicial district of Hartford to recover a civil penalty of not more than ten thousand dollars per violation and such injunctive and equitable relief as the court deems appropriate.
