FISCAL NOTE ANALYSIS
STATE OF ALASKA BILL NO. HB146
2024 LEGISLATIVE SESSION
Analysis
This bill amends AS 18.72 relating to state regulation of fireworks by repealing substantive provisions and, in their place,
authorizes and directs the Department of Public Safety (DPS) to adopt regulations.
Within DPS, the Division of Fire and Life Safety (DFLS), Life Safety Inspection Bureau, administers the firework permits
program and issues the following types of permits: firework display permits, pyrotechnic operators permits; retail firework
permits; and wholesale firework permits.
This bill requires the DFLS to adopt regulations related to the sale, storage, and use of fireworks. It is expected that the
regulations will be adopted within six months of the effective date of the bill, but no later than January 1, 2024.
DFLS currently charges nominal fees for each permit. Fees collected for firework permits are deposited into the state
general fund. Any change to the permit fee schedule would be included as part of the regulation project and subject to
public notice and comment.
Because the substantive changes of this bill are simply to move provisions of statute to regulation, no fiscal impact to DFLS
is expected. Therefore, a zero fiscal note is being submitted.
