00:02:20,162 --> 00:02:20,412
the benefit of having a

55
00:02:23,832 --> 00:02:24,082

and

66
00:02:52,160 --> 00:02:52,410

74
00:03:11,479 --> 00:03:11,729
Members are there any questions

75
00:03:13,715 --> 00:03:13,965
' ll ask

76
00:03:17,352 --> 00:03:17,602
my cochair thank you Mr

77
00:03:17,919 --> 00:03:18,169
Chair.

78
00:03:19,854 --> 00:03:20,104
so I I pretty much asked this

79
00:03:21,823 --> 00:03:22,073
question of everyone who

80
00:03:23,892 --> 00:03:24,142
presents before us what is

81
00:03:26,127 --> 00:03:26,377
the current state of the

82
00:03:28,096 --> 00:03:28,346
career do we have enough people

83
00:03:29,864 --> 00:03:30,114
performing these duties? do we

84
00:03:33,335 --> 00:03:33,585
need to have more or less and if

85
00:03:35,604 --> 00:03:35,854
so are y'all doing anything to

86
00:03:37,505 --> 00:03:37,755
promote more folks to take up

87
00:03:38,173 --> 00:03:38,423
this occupation

88
00:03:41,343 --> 00:03:41,593
I would say our current status

89
00:03:43,678 --> 00:03:43,928
is is adequate we generally

90
00:03:44,212 --> 00:03:44,462
don't

91
00:03:47,349 --> 00:03:47,599
vary too far from the number we

92
00:03:48,016 --> 00:03:48,266
have right now and I've been

93
00:03:52,354 --> 00:03:52,604
not made aware of any need

94
00:03:55,390 --> 00:03:55,640
for an an increased number of

95
00:03:56,157 --> 00:03:56,407
people out there as an ad

96
00:03:56,725 --> 00:03:56,975

Seeing none without objections,

100
00:04:06,334 --> 00:04:06,584
this report stands as reviewed

101
00:04:11,606 --> 00:04:11,856
the second license is for

102
00:04:14,142 --> 00:04:14,392
grain dealers. this license

103
00:04:15,644 --> 00:04:15,894
was created by the Arkansas

104
00:04:16,244 --> 00:04:16,494
Grain Dealers Act

105
00:04:20,181 --> 00:04:20,431
from 2015 codified Arkansas

106
00:04:23,618 --> 00:04:23,868
code annotated 2 24-da101 at

107
00:04:25,887 --> 00:04:26,137
sec. It requires grain dealers

108
00:04:27,656 --> 00:04:27,906
to obtain a license from the

109
00:04:29,658 --> 00:04:29,908

115
00:04:43,605 --> 00:04:43,855

118
00:04:51,980 --> 00:04:52,230
Members any questions

119
00:05:03,658 --> 00:05:03,908
Senator Johnson, ir, you are

00:05:05,660 --> 00:05:05,910
recognized thank you Mr Chairman

121
00:05:08,063 --> 00:05:08,313
gentlemen thank you for this

122
00:05:08,730 --> 00:05:08,980
I I was curious

123
00:05:11,633 --> 00:05:11,883
when we have these these special

124
00:05:12,367 --> 00:05:12,617
revenues in this particular

125
00:05:14,202 --> 00:05:14,452
license is is $800 a year

126
00:05:17,639 --> 00:05:17,889
where does what is done with

127
00:05:19,374 --> 00:05:19,624
that revenue I know it's special

128
00:05:20,075 --> 00:05:20,325
revenue for something but what

129
00:05:21,643 --> 00:05:21,893
all is what all is done with

130
00:05:23,845 --> 00:05:24,095
well with regards to this

131
00:05:26,114 --> 00:05:26,364
license it goes directly toward

132
00:05:28,383 --> 00:05:28,633
the costs of maintaining the

133
00:05:30,118 --> 00:05:30,368
people within the department of

134
00:05:33,388 --> 00:05:33,638
agriculture that monitor the

135
00:05:35,390 --> 00:05:35,640
program conduct the audits

136
00:05:36,124 --> 00:05:36,374
receive the reports that sort of

137
00:05:39,728 --> 00:05:39,978
thing. So this is to get help

138
00:05:43,865 --> 00:05:44,115
gain data that the department

139
00:05:47,335 --> 00:05:47,585
uses for a myriad of of

140
00:05:49,604 --> 00:05:49,854
purposes. The license itself sir

141
00:05:50,305 --> 00:05:50,555
no the fee oh yes sir

142
00:05:53,842 --> 00:05:54,092
ok so it's not just to to I mean

143
00:05:56,077 --> 00:05:56,327
I I I see these these regulatory

144
00:05:57,612 --> 00:05:57,862
things I wanna make sure it's

145
00:05:59,581 --> 00:05:59,831
just not a circle we collect

146
00:06:01,383 --> 00:06:01,633
money to to to regulate you but

147
00:06:02,117 --> 00:06:02,367
main thing we do is collect the

148
00:06:05,653 --> 00:06:05,903
money and but this covers other

149
00:06:07,655 --> 00:06:07,905
grain related and and commodity

150
00:06:11,659 --> 00:06:11,909
related things that your

151
00:06:12,160 --> 00:06:12,410
department the department of

152
00:06:13,895 --> 00:06:14,145
agriculture does I would say

153
00:06:16,131 --> 00:06:16,381
specifically it goes directly

154
00:06:18,199 --> 00:06:18,449
toward these grain dealers

155
00:06:22,137 --> 00:06:22,387
there there's a very long story

156
00:06:23,638 --> 00:06:23,888
about how this

157
00:06:27,842 --> 00:06:28,092
licensing procedure and this act

158
00:06:30,111 --> 00:06:30,361
came about but it is to ensure

159
00:06:33,848 --> 00:06:34,098
that grain dealers don't receive

160
00:06:37,886 --> 00:06:38,136
grain from farmers there is

161
00:06:39,654 --> 00:06:39,904
generally a period of time

162
00:06:41,623 --> 00:06:41,873
between when the dealer receives

163
00:06:43,391 --> 00:06:43,641
the grain and when the farmers

164
00:06:45,393 --> 00:06:45,643
are paid for the grain and there

165
00:06:47,395 --> 00:06:47,645
have been situations both in

166
00:06:49,431 --> 00:06:49,681
Arkansas and other states where

167
00:06:50,131 --> 00:06:50,381
some between

168
00:06:53,868 --> 00:06:54,118
those two events the dealer goes

169
00:06:55,703 --> 00:06:55,953
under and the farmer is left

170
00:06:57,806 --> 00:06:58,056
without

171
00:07:01,676 --> 00:07:01,926
being paid for the grain that he

172
00:07:03,378 --> 00:07:03,628
sent to a lot of small

173
00:07:05,380 --> 00:07:05,630
businesses deal with that

174
00:07:07,348 --> 00:07:07,598
problem at one level or another

175
00:07:09,350 --> 00:07:09,600
so thank you for that I I just

176
00:07:10,018 --> 00:07:10,268
wanted to make sure because I'm

177
00:07:10,685 --> 00:07:10,935
I'm sensitive to the fact that

178
00:07:14,155 --> 00:07:14,405
everything we do regulatory wise

179
00:07:15,857 --> 00:07:16,107
has a a real purpose and not

180
00:07:18,359 --> 00:07:18,609
just to to you know to

181
00:07:21,696 --> 00:07:21,946
perpetuate the system so to

182
00:07:22,497 --> 00:07:22,747
speak right thank you thank you

operators and water treatment

210
00:08:36,137 --> 00:08:36,387
operators distribution operators

211
00:08:38,139 --> 00:08:38,389
are water system operators

212
00:08:39,908 --> 00:08:40,158
that deal with water

213
00:08:41,376 --> 00:08:41,626
distribution systems and

00:08:42,143 --> 00:08:42,393
facilities treatment

215
00:08:43,912 --> 00:08:44,162
operators obviously for

treatment facilities water

217
00:08:47,882 --> 00:08:48,132
system operators are necessary

218
00:08:50,184 --> 00:08:50,434
to ensure the safety quality and

219
00:08:51,920 --> 00:08:52,170
quantity of water that are

220
00:08:53,922 --> 00:08:54,172
dispersed in in public water

221
00:08:54,556 --> 00:08:54,806
systems these licenses are

222
00:08:55,089 --> 00:08:55,339
required under

223
00:08:57,625 --> 00:08:57,875

225
00:09:00,094 --> 00:09:00,344
open to any questions

226
00:09:05,867 --> 00:09:06,117
my coachchair

227
00:09:09,871 --> 00:09:10,121
yeah good afternoon thank you

228
00:09:11,873 --> 00:09:12,123
for being here so just kind

229
00:09:13,608 --> 00:09:13,858
of like I did with the previous,

230
00:09:15,877 --> 00:09:16,127
where are we at with having

231
00:09:19,380 --> 00:09:19,630
enough individuals to perform

232
00:09:20,114 --> 00:09:20,364
these duties across the state

233
00:09:21,616 --> 00:09:21,866
obviouslybviously waters of

234
00:09:24,185 --> 00:09:24,435
major issue that we're all are

235
00:09:26,154 --> 00:09:26,404
concerned about. I know in some

236
00:09:27,922 --> 00:09:28,172
of the rural areas that I

237
00:09:29,357 --> 00:09:29,607
represent, they've been having

238
00:09:31,626 --> 00:09:31,876
trouble getting, you know, folks

239
00:09:32,393 --> 00:09:32,643
to that have these

240
00:09:33,895 --> 00:09:34,145
qualifications to come work

241
00:09:35,897 --> 00:09:36,147
within their water systems so

242
00:09:37,498 --> 00:09:37,748
where are we at with this

243
00:09:38,066 --> 00:09:38,316
occupation and are we doing

244
00:09:40,101 --> 00:09:40,351
anything to try to promote

245
00:09:42,136 --> 00:09:42,386
you know more of this in the in

246
00:09:43,504 --> 00:09:43,754
the state if there is a need

247
00:09:47,875 --> 00:09:48,125
sir you're correct we do have

248
00:09:51,646 --> 00:09:51,896
problems in the rural areas and

249
00:09:53,381 --> 00:09:53,631
there is also a large number of

250
00:09:54,082 --> 00:09:54,332
water operators that are

251
00:09:57,585 --> 00:09:57,835
retiring right now we have

252
00:09:59,387 --> 00:09:59,637
programs at some of the

253
00:10:01,889 --> 00:10:02,139
community colleges and com

254
00:10:03,758 --> 00:10:04,008
central Arkansas waterter has an

255
00:10:04,425 --> 00:10:04,675
internship program

256
00:10:07,929 --> 00:10:08,179
and of course our training

257
00:10:08,529 --> 00:10:08,779
academy SAU

258
00:10:13,334 --> 00:10:13,584
tries to promote it. OK so so

259
00:10:14,369 --> 00:10:14,619
we do have a pipeline where

260
00:10:17,438 --> 00:10:17,688
we're trying to mentor the next

261
00:10:18,106 --> 00:10:18,356
generation it sounds like. All

262
00:10:18,773 --> 00:10:19,023
right, thank

263
00:10:23,645 --> 00:10:23,895
Representative Beck, ir you are

264
00:10:24,312 --> 00:10:24,562
recognized

265
00:10:27,615 --> 00:10:27,865
thank you, Mister Chair. and

266
00:10:28,383 --> 00:10:28,633
and this may be a question that

267
00:10:31,519 --> 00:10:31,769
we can talk about that offline I

268
00:10:32,186 --> 00:10:32,436
guess but

269
00:10:32,436 --> 00:10:32,686
the

270
00:10:36,157 --> 00:10:36,407
the operators just not so much

271
00:10:37,859 --> 00:10:38,109
about the operator themselves

272
00:10:40,094 --> 00:10:40,344
but how does are are are the

273
00:10:43,398 --> 00:10:43,648
systems actually I'm assuming

274
00:10:44,132 --> 00:10:44,382
they're the ones responsible for

275
00:10:45,633 --> 00:10:45,883
the quality of the water

276
00:10:49,370 --> 00:10:49,620
are the is there a routine

277
00:10:50,371 --> 00:10:50,621
checking of the water systems to

278
00:10:51,673 --> 00:10:51,923
make sure they are delivering

279
00:10:55,877 --> 00:10:56,127
and yes sir we routinely sample

280
00:10:58,112 --> 00:10:58,362
the systems and we inspect them

281
00:10:59,914 --> 00:11:00,164
every 2 to3 years and the

282
00:11:01,382 --> 00:11:01,632
funding for that is part of that

283
00:11:02,050 --> 00:11:02,300
part of this fee off of this

284
00:11:02,684 --> 00:11:02,934
license

285
00:11:04,419 --> 00:11:04,669
or not

286
00:11:07,889 --> 00:11:08,139
part of it is through the 40

287
00:11:10,124 --> 00:11:10,374
cents a month fee that everyone

288
00:11:13,394 --> 00:11:13,644
pays on their water bill and

289
00:11:13,995 --> 00:11:14,245
then we also get federal money

290
00:11:17,665 --> 00:11:17,915
just one quick question go ahead

291
00:11:19,367 --> 00:11:19,617
sir and the frequency of that

292
00:11:20,134 --> 00:11:20,384
roughly would be I'm not sure

293
00:11:23,905 --> 00:11:24,155
it's not set in stone but like

294
00:11:24,572 --> 00:11:24,822
you were you would check a

295
00:11:25,139 --> 00:11:25,389
system

296
00:11:25,907 --> 00:11:26,157
twice a year

297
00:11:30,178 --> 00:11:30,428
we just we physically inspect

298
00:11:32,113 --> 00:11:32,363
the systems every 2 to3 years

299
00:11:33,915 --> 00:11:34,165
depending on the size but we're

300
00:11:35,917 --> 00:11:36,167
also available all the time to

301
00:11:37,885 --> 00:11:38,135
make technical assistance visits

302
00:11:39,987 --> 00:11:40,237
if they need it or if we know of

303
00:11:40,655 --> 00:11:40,905
a concern

304
00:11:42,123 --> 00:11:42,373
all right thank you

305
00:11:46,194 --> 00:11:46,444

306
00:11:46,761 --> 00:11:47,011
questions

307

00:12:35,910 --> 00:12:36,160
Mr Chairman. we submitted this

326
00:12:37,879 --> 00:12:38,129
report with the clarification

327
00:12:39,614 --> 00:12:39,864
between the business fees and

328
00:12:41,415 --> 00:12:41,665
the transfer agent fees and

329
00:12:42,016 --> 00:12:42,266
with that we're happy to answer

330
00:12:42,683 --> 00:12:42,933
any questions

331
00:12:46,053 --> 00:12:46,303
members are there any questions

332
00:12:50,291 --> 00:12:50,541
my coachchair

333
00:12:54,162 --> 00:12:54,412
so just like the previous

334
00:12:57,398 --> 00:12:57,648
for this occupation do we

335
00:12:58,132 --> 00:12:58,382
have enough folks that are

336
00:13:01,669 --> 00:13:01,919
licensed bail bondsmen I

337
00:13:02,170 --> 00:13:02,420
guess would be the appropriate

338
00:13:04,172 --> 00:13:04,422
term and do we need more or

339
00:13:07,341 --> 00:13:07,591
less? how how is this occupation

340
00:13:08,075 --> 00:13:08,325
faring in the state right now?

341
00:13:09,911 --> 00:13:10,161
Yes Mr Cochair, we are actually

342
00:13:11,646 --> 00:13:11,896
good and we're on average we're

343
00:13:13,648 --> 00:13:13,898
averaging about 2 to3 new

344
00:13:17,652 --> 00:13:17,902
agents a week a month a month

345
00:13:19,420 --> 00:13:19,670
OK I was gonna say that's a lot

346
00:13:20,021 --> 00:13:20,271
of new agents if we're doing

347
00:13:20,588 --> 00:13:20,838
that I'm sorry a a month but yes

348
00:13:21,255 --> 00:13:21,505
I

349
00:13:24,192 --> 00:13:24,442
think we're good and then if

350
00:13:25,660 --> 00:13:25,910
he's collected looks like you're

351
00:13:27,395 --> 00:13:27,645
collecting about a little over

352
00:13:28,095 --> 00:13:28,345
half a million dollars every

353
00:13:30,198 --> 00:13:30,448
year and annual expenses roughly

354
00:13:33,634 --> 00:13:33,884
100,000 less than that is that

355
00:13:37,371 --> 00:13:37,621
basically going to employees

356
00:13:38,139 --> 00:13:38,389
or what what what do we spend on

357
00:13:41,342 --> 00:13:41,592
the400,000 dollars on it

358
00:13:43,344 --> 00:13:43,594
actually goes to yes it goes

359
00:13:44,312 --> 00:13:44,562
toar goes to our our

360
00:13:45,613 --> 00:13:45,863
operations but the other part

361
00:13:47,615 --> 00:13:47,865
goes to the domestic abuse

362
00:13:50,117 --> 00:13:50,367
and domestic peace funds for the

363
00:13:52,153 --> 00:13:52,403
child abuse rape, domestic

364
00:13:53,654 --> 00:13:53,904
violenceence commission so

365
00:13:54,255 --> 00:13:54,505
that's where the rest of the

366
00:13:55,890 --> 00:13:56,140
funds go sir. OK so you use just

367
00:13:56,591 --> 00:13:56,841
what you need and then the rest

368
00:13:57,959 --> 00:13:58,209
gets transferred over there sir

369
00:13:58,626 --> 00:13:58,876
right

370
00:13:58,876 --> 00:13:59,126
right thank you

371
00:14:03,764 --> 00:14:04,014
Representative Gonzalez

372
00:14:05,700 --> 00:14:05,950
you recognize her

373
00:14:09,871 --> 00:14:10,121
how much are y'all transferring

374
00:14:10,538 --> 00:14:10,788
over to the domestic peacece

375
00:14:11,172 --> 00:14:11,422
fund

376
00:14:13,641 --> 00:14:13,891
it roughly

377
00:14:17,612 --> 00:14:17,862
estimates too and our finance

378
00:14:18,246 --> 00:14:18,496
department does it so roughly

379
00:14:21,649 --> 00:14:21,899
estimates about75% of what we

380
00:14:23,484 --> 00:14:23,734
take in through the fees and

381
00:14:27,688 --> 00:14:27,938
finds we can only keep enough to

382
00:14:29,657 --> 00:14:29,907
keep the board to keep our

383
00:14:31,392 --> 00:14:31,642
personnel and maintenance and

384
00:14:32,159 --> 00:14:32,409
operations up and running.th

385
00:14:33,628 --> 00:14:33,878
everything else gets transferred

386
00:14:34,362 --> 00:14:34,612
over so

387
00:14:37,632 --> 00:14:37,882
sorry I will get back with you

388
00:14:39,367 --> 00:14:39,617
with that number exactly that

389
00:14:40,101 --> 00:14:40,351
