Keauhou, Hawaii (AP) -- Federal officials are in the final review stages of rules that would ban swimming with Hawaiian spinner dolphins, officials said.
National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration officials are nearing completion of regulations proposed almost three years ago that would create a 50-yard (46-meter) barrier around the mammals, West Hawaii Today reported Wednesday.
