CCS HB 49 - Fiscal Note 42
FISCAL NOTE ANALYSIS
STATE OF ALASKA BILL NO. CCSHB49
2019 LEGISLATIVE SESSION
Analysis
This bill increases the number of inmates to a level that exceeds the system's capacity. The current general capacity of the
department's institutions is 4,664 inmates. The department averaged 4,314 inmates during the CY2018 thus leaving the
system with additional capacity for 350 additional inmates. The department projects that this bill will increase the number
of inmates beyond current capacity by 392.0 inmates in the first year, 699.8 inmates in the second year, 760.3 inmates in
the third year, 761.6 inmates the fourth year, 767.2 inmates the fifth year, and 770.1 inmates the sixth year. If the
departments projections are correct, it will need to reopen the currentlyshuttered Palmer Correctional Center (PCC) in
order to have the capacity to accommodate the projected increase in inmates. The general capacity of the Palmer
Correctional Center is 503 inmates.
The Palmer Correctional Center closed in the fall on 2016. After being vacant for two and half years, the facility requires
some work in order to house inmates. Additionally, useful equipment and furnishings were repurposed elsewhere in the
department. The costs associated with reopening the facility are onetime expenses for preparation of the facility and
replacement of equipment.
Commodities include items such as radios, logbooks, prisoner transport vans, perimeter patrol vehicles, handcuffs,
firearms and ammunition, breathalyzer, maintenance forklift, computers, printers, laundry and lawn care equipment,
office furniture, staff uniforms, cleaning equipment, and fire extinguishers. Medical equipment also needs to be replaced
such as exam tables, EKG machine, AED machine, vital sign machine, lab draw chairs, and smaller items like stethoscopes,
and biohazard trash cans. Dental equipment required includes items such as a dental chair, dental light, cavitron,
autoclave, and dental camera as well as smaller items.
Services include fire sprinkler/alarm inspection and repair (if needed), fence alarm testing and repair (if needed), back flow
preventer inspection and repair (if needed), water testing and Department of Environmental Conservation approval to
operate, waste water operator training/certification, phone system activation and programming, boiler inspection and
service, freezer/cooler inspection and startup, kitchen hood inspection, and other smaller services.
The costs in the miscellaneous line represent the FY2015 management plan figure of $13,180.4 to operate PCC, adjusted
for inflation using the Bureau of Labor Statistics Consumer Price Index (CPI). This yields a projected cost to operate all of
PCC today of $14,137.4 and requiring 104 PCNs. The FY2015 management plan cost to operate PCC did not include the full
cost to operate the facility; it doesn't reflect costs for utilities, health care, the Correctional Academy, and transportation,
among other additional costs. Thus, these costs are reflected in accompanying fiscal notes.
