FISCAL NOTE ANALYSIS
STATE OF ALASKA BILL NO. HB 299
2018 LEGISLATIVE SESSION
Analysis
HB 299 extends statutory authorization for the existing Alcoholic Beverage Control Board (ABC) through June 30, 2022.
Adoption of the bill will continue existing activities of the board, and administration by the agency director and staff.
Failure to adopt the bill would cause operations of the ABC Board to cease as of June 30, 2018.
The ABC Board's mission is to control the manufacture, barter, possession, and sale of alcoholic beverages in the state.
The ABC Board and its agency staff, housed in DCCED, issue liquor licenses and permits and enforce laws and regulations
regarding alcohol in Alaska. There are currently 1,905 alcohol licenses issued in the state of Alaska. Licenses are valid for a
two year period, renewing biennially. Each of these licensees relies on the ABC Board and agency for administration of
and renewal of the licenses that enable them to continue the operation of their business.
If the bill passes the following expenses will be incurred:
Personal Services: $765.5 (eight full time agency staff: 3 Special Investigator I, Records and Licensing Supervisor, 2
Occupational Licensing Examiner, Administrative Assistant I, Criminal Justice Technician I)
Travel: $73.5 (board members attend at least five board meetings per year; board is required to meet in each judicial
district at least once per year; agency director and occasionally board chair or other agency management staff travel for
conferences and/or training; enforcement staff travel throughout state for inspections and investigations)
Services: $750.0 (includes information technology and department support for deleted positions; support from the
Department of Law; hearing services; building leases; meeting advertising; meeting space rental; and other reimbursable
services agreements with other agencies)
Commodities: $71.6 (supplies including printing statute/regulation books; required signs for licensees; ammunition and
other enforcement trainng supplies; office supplies)
The ABC Board's work is funded by program receipts. Fees for applicants and licensees for new licenses, renewal of
licenses, or transfer of licenses include an application fee set in regulation, a license fee mostly set in statute (a few license
types are established in regulation along with their license fee), and a background check fee set by the Department of
Public Safety. Permit fees are set in statute for permits established in statute, and set in regulation for permits established
in regulation. The total amount of revenue collected approximately equals the actual regulatory costs.
