FISCAL NOTE ANALYSIS
STATE OF ALASKA BILL NO. HB 355
2017 LEGISLATIVE SESSION
Analysis
This legislation will update the wildland fire statutes to use current terminology and definitions, provide a tighter linkage
to the criminal code statutes associated with violations and establish an updated, scalable range of offenses and
associated fines from misdemeanor to felony.
Department of Natural Resources does not anticipate any direct fiscal impact. Updating regulations and some training for
fire prevention staff will be absorbed by the department. While the bill addresses fines for offenses, the changes made to
existing statues are not expected to generate a meaningful amount of additional revenue.
