The person in control of each hotel, inn, boardinghouse, rooming house and private residence within the State shall within 24 hours after the proclamation notify the public authorities of the presence in their establishment of every citizen or subject of that foreign country, and shall each day notify the public authorities of the arrival and departure of those persons. Failure to comply with the requirements of the Governor's proclamation or to do or perform any of the acts provided in this section is a Class E crime.   [PL 1983, c. 460, §3 (NEW).]
