This bill amends Section 759 of Title 47 of the Oklahoma Statutes, which pertains to the Board of Tests for Alcohol and Drug Influence. The primary change is the extension of the Board's sunset date from July 1, 2026, to July 1, 2036, ensuring its continued operation in accordance with the Oklahoma Sunset Law. Additionally, the bill updates statutory language, including the replacement of the term "vice-chair" with "vice chair" and the consistent use of the term "unit" instead of "Unit" when referring to the Alcohol Drug Countermeasures Unit.
The bill also outlines the composition and responsibilities of the Board, which includes members from various educational and law enforcement institutions. It grants the Board the authority to establish standards for testing and analysis related to alcohol and drug influence, as well as to create a revolving fund for its operations. The act is set to take effect on July 1, 2026, and includes an emergency clause for immediate implementation upon passage and approval.
