The bill establishes an executive administrator position for the Board of Dental Examiners and the Big Game Commercial Services Board in Alaska. It amends existing statutes to define the duties and qualifications of the executive administrator, who will serve as the principal executive officer of each board. The bill specifies that the executive administrator will be employed by the department in consultation with the respective boards and will receive a monthly salary equivalent to a step in Range 23 on the state salary schedule. Additionally, the boards are granted the authority to delegate necessary powers to the executive administrator to facilitate board operations.

Key amendments include the insertion of new language that outlines the qualifications and duties of the executive administrator for both boards, as well as the deletion of outdated language regarding the general powers of the boards. The bill also updates the list of positions in the partially exempt service to include the executive administrators of the Big Game Commercial Services Board and the Board of Dental Examiners, ensuring they are recognized within the state's employment structure.
