A place or facility shall not be approved by the Management Authority pursuant to subsection (4) unless the place or facility complies in all respects with the provisions of this Act and the Convention and in particular, —
a captive breeding facility shall not be approved unless the animals are born or otherwise produced in a controlled environment and the parental breeding stock was established and is maintained so as to reliably produce second and subsequent generation offspring in a manner not detrimental to the survival of the species in the wild; and
a nursery shall not be approved unless the plants are grown under controlled conditions and the cultivated parental stock was established in a manner not detrimental to the survival of the species in the wild and in such a way as to maintain the cultivated stock indefinitely.
