New York State's Governor has signed a law (AB 999) that bans any use of CO gas in animal kill shelters. The law further requires that all municipal shelters dismantle and remove these devises.
AB 999, mandates that only in an emergency would the use of an injection of sodium pentobarbital or a sodium pentabarbital solution be used to euthanize animals in public shelters.
Two years ago the bill passed the New York State Assembly but has been waiting for the Senate to pass it. It applies only to municipal animal shelters and does not include research laboratories and breeders.
The bill requires that an animal's death must be confirmed and that someone be present during the euthanazia proceedure. Failure to do so could result in a fine of $500.
The law includes the possiblitiy of using gunshot in the event of an emergency, such as if an anmial is a threat to a person or other animal, or if the animal is suffering excessively. Violations of this are punishable by a $1000 fine and a year in jail.
