Which states are steroid free?

Which racing jurisdictions have enacted the ARCI steroid model rules?

[Tom Barrister]

According to Bloodhorse as of December 5th, 20 states have adopted the RCI model for steroid limitation. Another 13 are in the process of working out the language of the regulations. The only three states which haven't started the process are Idaho, Montana, and Nevada, none of which are known for their stellar racing. The only racing in Nevada is at the fairs, and Elko County is the only one that comes to mind.

Several states which have steroid rules in place or in process won't start enforcement until January 1st.

I am curious to which of the 13 jurisdiction are still in process.

I am trying to add a 'steroid free' logo near each track on horseplayerdaily.com's website only for the tracks where it is a done deal.
