Section 5 AAC 93.560 - Fees, retainage, and compensation for issuance of licenses(a) Except as provided in AS 16.05.470 for licensing of commercial fishing crewmembers and vessels, a license vendor who is not a state employee is entitled to compensation as provided in AS 16.05.390.(b) Calculation of the compensation due a license vendor under AS 16.05.390 will be based on reports and proceeds received by the commissioner by the end of each calendar quarter. Compensation for licenses sold in one quarter and reported the following quarter must be included in the calculation for the current quarter. If a license vendor reports sales of licenses in one calendar year on the next calendar year report, and the vendor's total sales for the previous year were less than 50 licenses, the difference between 50 and the number of licenses actually sold will be deducted from the year reported and added to the previous year's sales to ensure that the license vendor is not paid twice for these sales.(c) If the commissioner determines that the license vendor has submitted less than the full amount due, the commissioner, before making payment of the compensation authorized by AS 16.05.390(a)(2) and this section, will deduct from the compensation the difference between the amount due and the amount submitted to the commissioner. The commissioner will inform the license vendor, in writing of all deductions.(d) The commissioner will pay the license vendor within the time specified in AS 16.05.390(c). The commissioner may assess a penalty against a vendor under AS 16.05.390(g) who does not timely transmit proceeds to the commissioner.(e) The commissioner may choose not to renew a contract or enter into a new contract with a license vendor if the retainage by and compensation paid to the license vendor in the preceding year exceed the amount remitted to the commissioner for licenses sold by the license vendor.Eff. 1/13/2012, Register 201Authority:AS 16.05.020
