There are many well educated municipalities that properly cite "Nationally Recognized Testing Laboratory" (NRTL) or the standards that the material must comply with (OSHA, ASTM, etc.)
Obviously, there are those, including Hawai`i County, that do not cite correctly, & which use words that are incorrect, like "approved", something that none of the NRTL certification laboratories do, they list the products that have a certificate that they met or exceeded the testing parameters!
Of course, that could bite these municipalities if someone were to question the code wording.
