Official summary
Legislative Counsel’s Digest (official, as of the latest version). Written by nonpartisan legislative staff; reproduced verbatim.
The Alcoholic Beverage Control Act, administered by the Department of Alcoholic Beverage Control, regulates the application for, the issuance of, the suspension of and the conditions imposed upon various alcoholic beverage licenses. The act requires an applicant for a new permanent on-sale general public premises (Type 48) license or the holder of an existing Type 48 license to offer for sale to their customers drug testing devices at a cost not to exceed a reasonable amount based on the wholesale cost of those devices. The act defines “drug testing devices” for this purpose to mean specified devices designed to detect the presence of controlled substances in a drink. The act defines “controlled substances,” for these purposes, to include specified substances, including, but not limited to, flunitrazepam, ketamine, and gamma hydroxybutyric acid, as provided.
This bill would additionally specify that, for the above-described purposes, the definition of “controlled substances” also includes carfentanil and fentanyl.
