ACTION NARRATIVE
1:45:42 PM
CHAIR MIKE DUNLEAVY called the Senate Labor and Commerce
Standing Committee meeting to order at 1:45 p.m. Present at the
call to order were Senators Stedman, Micciche, and Chair
Dunleavy.
SB 214-INSURANCE ADJUSTER LICENSING
1:46:32 PM
CHAIR DUNLEAVY announced the consideration of SB 214. "An Act
relating to insurance adjuster licensing." He noted this was the
second hearing and that there was a new committee substitute
(CS).
1:46:38 PM
SENATOR MICCICHE moved to adopt the CS for SB 214, labeled 28-
LS1274\P, as the working document.
CHAIR DUNLEAVY objected for discussion purposes.
STEVE RICCI, Aide, Senate Labor & Commerce Standing Committee,
Alaska State Legislature, Juneau, Alaska, highlighted the
changes in Version P. He explained that the CS recognizes the
proliferation of virtual businesses and exempts an adjuster of
portable electronics insurance claims from the requirement of
having to maintain a brick and mortar presence in the adjuster's
home state. These changes make Alaska's law consistent with
National Association of Insurance Commissioners (NAIC)
guidelines for licensing independent claims adjusters.
CHAIR DUNLEAVY removed his objection.
1:48:51 PM
At Ease
CHAIR DUNLEAVY reconvened the meeting and asked Mr. Hester with
the Division of Insurance to comment on the CS.
1:49:35 PM
MARTY HESTER, Deputy Director, Division of Insurance, Department
of Commerce, Community and Economic Development (DCCED), said
the division worked with this committee on the language in the
CS and it's consistent with the NAIC model act on non-resident
adjuster licensing. He said the bill also appears to be
consistent with the laws that other states have enacted for
portable electronic licensing. These states have reported no
issues with the non-resident adjuster licensees since the law
was enacted.
SENATOR MICCICHE asked if this legislation would disadvantage
any Alaskans from participating in portable electronic insurance
adjusting.
MR. HESTER said not to his knowledge.
1:51:08 PM
STEPHEN MCDANIEL, Outside Regulatory Counsel for Asurion, said
he was testifying on behalf of Asurion in support of the
committee substitute. He agreed with Deputy Director Hester that
the language in the CS is consistent with the licensing of non-
resident portable electronics adjusters in 28 other states, and
that it would make Alaska's licensure statutes consistent with
the NAIC guidelines.
CHAIR DUNLEAVY closed public testimony. Finding no further
questions or comments, he solicited a motion.
1:52:08 PM
SENATOR MICCICHE moved to report CS for SB 214, Version P, from
committee with individual recommendations and attached fiscal
note(s).
CHAIR DUNLEAVY announced that without objection CSSB 214(L&C)
moved from the Senate Labor & Commerce Standing Committee.
1:52:34 PM
At Ease
HB 141-WORKERS' COMPENSATION MEDICAL FEES
1:53:26 PM
CHAIR DUNLEAVY reconvened the meeting and announced the
consideration of HB 141. "An Act setting the fee for medical
treatment or services performed outside the state under the
Alaska Workers' Compensation Act, requiring a provider of
medical treatment or services under the Alaska Workers'
Compensation Act to submit bills for treatment or services to
employers within 180 days after the date the treatment or
services are rendered, and limiting the time for appealing an
employer's denial or reduction of a bill; and providing for an
effective date." This was the second hearing.
1:53:38 PM
ANNA LATHAM, Staff, Representative Kurt Olson, Alaska State
Legislature, Juneau, Alaska, explained that HB 141 sets a fee
schedule for worker's compensation claims that are treated
outside the state of Alaska and establishes billing timelines.
The statute was amended last in 2011 with House Bill 13, which
extended the usual, customary and reasonable fee schedule that
Alaska uses for worker's compensation billing. That was
reflective of the geographic area where services were rendered
and set at the 90th percentile. What that bill failed to do was
to set parameters for where Alaska's fee schedule could be used.
MS. LATHAM said that Alaska has the highest worker's
compensation premium rates in the nation, and the sponsor has
found that worker's compensation claimants who are treated
outside the state are being billed at Washington, Oregon, or
California rates and then they could be billed for the
difference between Alaska's higher rate and the rate where they
were treated. HB 141 would fix this by clarifying that medical
services treated in Alaska would be charged using Alaska's UCR
fee schedule, whereas medical services treated in other states
could not exceed the charges set by the worker's compensation
statutes in the state where the services are rendered.
MS. LATHAM responded to a question and affirmed that the fee
schedule remains the same in the state of Alaska, but services
rendered outside the state would be billed at the rates in the
jurisdiction in which the worker's compensation claimant was
treated.
1:55:50 PM
MICHAEL MONAGLE, Director, Division of Workers' Compensation,
Department of Labor and Workforce Development (DOLWD), said he
had no additional comments on HB 141.
1:56:22 PM
WARD HURLBURT, Chief Medical Officer, Department of Health and
Social Services (DHSS), offered to answer questions related to
HB 141.
1:56:48 PM
VINCE O'SHEA, Vice President, Pacific Seafood Processors
Association, said he testified during the previous hearing and
had no additional comments.
CHAIR DUNLEAVY closed public testimony.
SENATOR MICCICHE expressed appreciation to the sponsor for
introducing the bill. He noted that it was discussed extensively
during the previous hearing.
1:57:43 PM
SENATOR MICCICHE moved to report HB 141 from committee with
individual recommendations and attached fiscal note(s).
CHAIR DUNLEAVY announced that without objection HB 141 moved
from the Senate Labor & Commerce Standing Committee.
1:58:01 PM
At Ease
HB 32-LINES OF BUSINESS ON BUSINESS LICENSE
1:59:03 PM
CHAIR DUNLEAVY reconvened the meeting and announced the
consideration of HB 32. "An Act providing for the issuance of
one business license for multiple lines of business; and
providing for reissuance of a business license to make a change
on the license." This was the second hearing. [CSHB 32(FIN) was
before the committee.]
1:59:06 PM
CHARLES GUINCHARD, Staff, Representative Mia Costello, Alaska
State Legislature, Juneau, Alaska, explained that HB 32 changes
current law to allow a person to operate multiple lines of
business on one business license. The bill also allows a person
to make one discretionary change to their business license
within the first 30 days of receiving the license, or to make a
change at any time during the license period to correct a
mistake on the license.
CHAIR DUNLEAVY noted that Sara Chambers and Kathryn Fagerstrom
with the Department of Commerce, Community and Economic
Development (DCCED) were available to answer questions.
He closed public testimony.
SENATOR MICCICHE highlighted that the committee spent a lot of
time on the bill during the previous hearing. It appears to be a
good piece of legislation that will reduce the burden of doing
business in Alaska.
2:01:12 PM
SENATOR MICCICHE moved to report HB 32 from committee with
individual recommendations and attached fiscal note(s).
CHAIR DUNLEAVY announced that without objection, HB 32 was
reported from the Senate Labor & Commerce Standing Committee.
HB 234-EXTEND REGULATORY COMMISSION OF ALASKA
2:01:37 PM
CHAIR DUNLEAVY announced the consideration of HB 234."An Act
extending the termination date of the Regulatory Commission of
Alaska; and providing for an effective date." This was the
second hearing.
2:01:57 PM
REPRESENTATIVE MIKE HAWKER, Alaska State Legislature, Juneau,
Alaska, sponsor of HB 234, explained that the bill extends the
termination date of the Regulatory Commission of Alaska (RCA)
until June 30, 2022. He noted that during the last meeting there
was extensive discussion on the agency and the legislative audit
that recommended the eight year extension.
CHAIR DUNLEAVY noted that T.W. Patch with the RCA and Kris
Curtis with legislative audit were available for questions.
CHAIR DUNLEAVY closed public testimony.
2:03:39 PM
SENATOR MICCICHE moved to report HB 234 from committee with
individual recommendations and attached fiscal note(s).
CHAIR DUNLEAVY announced that without objection, HB 234 moved
from the Senate Labor and Commerce Standing Committee.
HB 276-MOTOR VEHICLE DEALER EMPLOYEES
2:04:01 PM
CHAIR DUNLEAVY announced the consideration of HB 276. "An Act
making the Alaska Wage and Hour Act inapplicable to certain
employees of motor vehicle dealers; and providing for an
effective date." This was the second hearing.
2:04:43 PM
JANE PIERSON, Staff, Representative Steve Thompson, Alaska State
Legislature, Juneau, Alaska, explained that HB 276 clarifies
that automobile sales personnel, finance personnel, and service
writers are exempt from the Alaska Minimum Wage and Hour Act.
These people are paid on a commission basis and have never been
hourly employees.
2:05:53 PM
STEVE ALLWINE, Alaska Automobile Dealers Association, Juneau,
Alaska, introduced himself.
SENATOR MICCICHE asked if there were instances in the past of an
employee who didn't understand that their compensation was on a
commission basis.
MR. ALLWINE said no, but recent litigation highlighted this as a
potential problem. As stated in the sponsor statement,
clarification in statute appears to be the most effective
solution.
CHAIR DUNLEAVY closed public testimony.
2:06:47 PM
SENATOR MICCICHE moved to report HB 276 from committee with
individual recommendations and attached fiscal note(s).
CHAIR DUNLEAVY announced that without objection, HB 276 moved
from the Senate Labor and Commerce Standing Committee.
HB 204-SALMON & HERRING PRODUCT DEV'T TAX CREDIT
2:07:05 PM
CHAIR DUNLEAVY announced the consideration of HB 204. "An Act
relating to a product development tax credit for certain salmon
and herring products; and providing for an effective date." This
was the second hearing. [CSSSHB 204(FIN) was before the
committee.]
2:07:26 PM
ASTRID ROSE, Staff, Representative Alan Austerman, Alaska State
Legislature, Juneau, Alaska, explained that HB 204 does four
major things: 1) it extends the sunset of the product
development tax credit to 2020; 2) it expands the tax credit to
herring; 3) it allows the tax credit to apply to can sizes other
than "pop top" production; and 4) it incentivizes byproduct use
of discharge waste from processing.
2:08:38 PM
BRUCE SCHACTLER, Director of Global Food Aid, Alaska Seafood
Marketing, said he testified on HB 204 when in was heard in the
House, and in the interest of time he would simply state ongoing
support for the bill. It will do good things for the industry
and economic development, he said.
CHAIR DUNLEAVY closed public testimony.
SENATOR MICCICHE commented that he and Senator Stedman were
cosponsors and were interested of increasing the value of Alaska
fisheries.
2:10:05 PM
SENATOR MICCICHE moved to report HB 204, Version P, from
committee with individual recommendations and attached fiscal
note(s).
CHAIR DUNLEAVY announced that without objection CSSSHB 204(FIN)
moved from the Senate Labor & Commerce Standing Committee.

Board of Certified Real Estate Appraisers
2:11:14 PM
CHAIR DUNLEAVY reconvened the meeting and announced the next
order of business was a confirmation hearing for Brit Szymoniak

members received pertinent information on the nominee last week.
Finding no public testimony, he stated that his office would
continue to take written comments on the nominee. He asked the
will of the committee.
2:11:51 PM
SENATOR MICCICHE moved to forward the name Brit Szymoniak,
appointee to the Board of Certified Real Estate Appraisers, to
[the full body] for consideration.
CHAIR DUNLEAVY reminded members that signing the report

reflects individual members' approval or disapproval of the

full legislature for confirmation or rejection.
