Providing wine and beer educator's licenses.

    AN ACT Relating to wine and beer educator's licenses; and adding a new section to chapter 66.24 RCW.

BE IT ENACTED BY THE LEGISLATURE OF THE STATE OF WASHINGTON:

NEW SECTION. Sec. 1.  A new section is added to chapter 66.24 RCW to read as follows:

    (1) The board shall issue to an individual or corporation, not otherwise licensed by the board, an annual educator's license that permits the licensee to sell table wine or malt liquor by the glass for the purposes of conducting educational wine, beer, or wine and beer testings at one-day events, except as provided in subsection (4) of this section.

    (2) A licensee under this section may purchase table wine for testings directly from a licensed wine wholesaler or beer from a licensed beer wholesaler.  The license may not allow for the sale of wine by the bottle or beer by the bottle, can, or other-sized container intended for off-premises consumption.  The licensee shall maintain accurate records including the listing of wine or beer diverted for personal use following an event.

    (3) The cost of a license under this section is two hundred dollars with an additional ten dollars to be paid for each one-day event license for which the license is to be used.

    (4) A special, extended event license for an activity such as a fair, convention, or festival for no more than five continuous days may be obtained by the licensee upon payment of a fee of fifty dollars.

    (5) With the application to use the license for a specific event, the licensee must provide a letter of approval from the local law enforcement administrator having jurisdiction where the activity will be conducted.  Local law enforcement may place restrictions on the use of the license at an event, and the approval letter must be on agency letterhead and must include all of these restrictions.

    (6) An applicant must apply for an annual license under this section at least forty-five days before the date of the applicant's first event.  An applicant must make a request for a license for an individual event at least thirty days before the event.

    (7) This section shall expire on July 1, 1998.
