to suspend | 14 | | or revoke such licenses upon the State commission's | 15 | | determination,
upon notice after hearing, that a licensee | 16 | | has violated any provision of this
Act or any rule or | 17 | | regulation issued pursuant thereto and in effect for 30 | 18 | | days
prior to such violation. Except in the case of an | 19 | | action taken pursuant to a
violation of Section 6-3, 6-5, | 20 | | or 6-9, any action by the State Commission to
suspend or | 21 | | revoke a licensee's license may be limited to the license | 22 | | for the
specific premises where the violation occurred.
An | 23 | | action for a violation of this Act shall be commenced by | 24 | | the State Commission within 2 years after the date the | 25 | | State Commission becomes aware of the violation.
| 26 | | In lieu of suspending or revoking a license, the |

that a licensee has | 3 | | violated any provision of this Act or any rule or
| 4 | | regulation issued pursuant thereto and in effect for 30 | 5 | | days prior to such
violation. | 6 | | For the purpose of this paragraph (1), when determining | 7 | | multiple violations for the sale of alcohol to a person | 8 | | under the age of 21, a second or subsequent violation for | 9 | | the sale of alcohol to a person under the age of 21 shall | 10 | | only be considered if it was committed within 5 years after | 11 | | the date when a prior violation for the sale of alcohol to | 12 | | a person under the age of 21 was committed. | 13 | | The fine imposed under this paragraph may not exceed | 14 | | $500 for each
violation. Each day that the activity, which | 15 | | gave rise to the original fine,

any | 17 | | licensee, for the period of the license, shall not exceed | 18 | | $20,000.
The maximum penalty that may be imposed on a | 19 | | licensee for selling a bottle of
alcoholic liquor with a | 20 | | foreign object in it or serving from a bottle of
alcoholic | 21 | | liquor with a foreign object in it shall be the destruction | 22 | | of that
bottle of alcoholic liquor for the first 10 bottles | 23 | | so sold or served from by
the licensee. For the eleventh | 24 | | bottle of alcoholic liquor and for each third
bottle | 25 | | thereafter sold or served from by the licensee with a | 26 | | foreign object in
it, the maximum penalty that may be |

|
| 1 | | complaint, and shall state with specificity
the facts in | 2 | | relation to the alleged violation. If the Commission has
| 3 | | reasonable grounds to believe that the complaint | 4 | | substantially alleges a
violation of this Act or rules and | 5 | | regulations adopted pursuant to this Act, it
shall conduct | 6 | | an investigation. If, after conducting an investigation, | 7 | | the
Commission is satisfied that the alleged violation did | 8 | | occur, it shall proceed
with disciplinary action against | 9 | | the licensee as provided in this Act.

| 1 | | forms, records and memoranda which in the judgment of the | 2 | | commission may
be necessary or appropriate to carry out any | 3 | | of the provisions of this
Act, including but not limited to | 4 | | such forms, records and memoranda as
will readily and | 5 | | accurately disclose at all times the beneficial
ownership | 6 | | of such retail licensed business. The accounts, forms,
| 7 | | records and memoranda shall be available at all reasonable | 8 | | times for
inspection by authorized representatives of the | 9 | | State commission or by
any local liquor control | 10 | | commissioner or his or her authorized representative.
The | 11 | | commission, may, from time to time, alter, amend or repeal, | 12 | | in whole

obedience to its order by proceedings for contempt.
| 6 | | (9) To investigate the administration of laws in | 7 | | relation to
alcoholic liquors in this and other states and | 8 | | any foreign countries,
and to recommend from time to time | 9 | | to the Governor and through him or
her to the legislature | 10 | | of this State, such amendments to this Act, if any, as
it | 11 | | may think desirable and as will serve to further the | 12 | | general broad
purposes contained in Section 1-2 hereof.
| 13 | | (10) To adopt such rules and regulations consistent | 14 | | with the
provisions of this Act which shall be necessary | 15 | | for the control, sale or
disposition of alcoholic liquor | 16 | | damaged as a result of an accident, wreck,
flood, fire or | 17 | | other similar occurrence.
| 18 | | (11) To develop industry educational programs related | 19 | | to responsible

of Section 1926 of the federal ADAMHA | 13 | | Reorganization Act of 1992 (Public Law
102-321). This study | 14 | | shall address the extent to which Illinois currently
| 15 | | complies with the provisions of P.L. 102-321 and the rules | 16 | | promulgated pursuant
thereto.
| 17 | | As part of its report, the Commission shall provide the | 18 | | following essential

| 6 | | (iv) the level of access and availability of | 7 | | tobacco products to
individuals under the age of 18.
| 8 | | To obtain the data necessary to comply with the | 9 | | provisions of P.L. 102-321
and the requirements of this | 10 | | report, the Commission shall conduct random,
unannounced | 11 | | inspections of a geographically and scientifically | 12 | | representative
sample of the State's retail tobacco | 13 | | distributors.
| 14 | | The Commission shall consult with the Department of | 15 | | Public Health, the
Department of Human Services, the
| 16 | | Illinois State Police and any
other executive branch | 17 | | agency, and private organizations that may have
| 18 | | information relevant to this report.
| 19 | | The Commission may contract with the Food and Drug | 20 | | Administration of the
U.S. Department of Health and Human | 21 | | Services to conduct unannounced
investigations of Illinois | 22 | | tobacco vendors to determine compliance with federal
laws | 23 | | relating to the illegal sale of cigarettes and smokeless | 24 | | tobacco products
to persons under the age of 18.
| 25 | | (14) On or before April 30, 2008 and every 2 years
| 26 | | thereafter, the Commission shall present a written
report |
| | | SB2765 Engrossed | - 11 - | LRB100 17580 RJF 32750 b |
|
| 1 | | to the Governor and the General Assembly that shall
be | 2 | | based on a study of the impact of Public Act 95-634 on the | 3 | | business of soliciting,

| 8 | | revenues generated. | 9 | | (B) The amount of licensing fees received. | 10 | | (C) The number of cases of wine shipped from inside

| 23 | | the Illinois Attorney General and the U.S. Department

| 26 | | alcoholic liquors, the Commission shall conduct
alcohol |
| | | SB2765 Engrossed | - 12 - | LRB100 17580 RJF 32750 b |
|
| 1 | | compliance operations to investigate whether
businesses | 2 | | that are soliciting, selling, and shipping wine
from inside | 3 | | or outside of this State directly to residents
of this | 4 | | State are licensed by this State or are selling or
| 5 | | attempting to sell wine to persons under 21 years of age in
| 6 | | violation of this Act. | 7 | | (16) The Commission shall, in addition to
notifying any | 8 | | appropriate law enforcement agency, submit
notices of | 9 | | complaints or violations of Sections 6-29 and
6-29.1 by | 10 | | persons who do not hold a winery shipper's
license under | 11 | | this Act to the Illinois Attorney General and
to the U.S. | 12 | | Department of Treasury's Alcohol and Tobacco Tax and Trade | 13 | | Bureau. | 14 | | (17)(A) A person licensed to make wine under the laws | 15 | | of another state who has a winery shipper's license under | 16 | | this Act and annually produces less than 25,000 gallons of | 17 | | wine or a person who has a first-class or second-class wine | 18 | | manufacturer's license, a first-class or second-class | 19 | | wine-maker's license, or a limited wine manufacturer's | 20 | | license under this Act and annually produces less than | 21 | | 25,000 gallons of wine may make application to the | 22 | | Commission for a self-distribution exemption to allow the | 23 | | sale of not more than 5,000 gallons of the exemption | 24 | | holder's wine to retail licensees per year. | 25 | | (B) In the application, which shall be sworn under | 26 | | penalty of perjury, such person shall state (1) the date it |
| | | SB2765 Engrossed | - 13 - | LRB100 17580 RJF 32750 b |
|
| 1 | | was established; (2) its volume of production and sales for | 2 | | each year since its establishment; (3) its efforts to | 3 | | establish distributor relationships; (4) that a | 4 | | self-distribution exemption is necessary to facilitate the | 5 | | marketing of its wine; and (5) that it will comply with the | 6 | | liquor and revenue laws of the United States, this State, | 7 | | and any other state where it is licensed. | 8 | | (C) The Commission shall approve the application for a | 9 | | self-distribution exemption if such person: (1) is in | 10 | | compliance with State revenue and liquor laws; (2) is not a | 11 | | member of any affiliated group that produces more than | 12 | | 25,000 gallons of wine per annum or produces any other | 13 | | alcoholic liquor; (3) will not annually produce for sale | 14 | | more than 25,000 gallons of wine; and (4) will not annually | 15 | | sell more than 5,000 gallons of its wine to retail | 16 | | licensees. | 17 | | (D) A self-distribution exemption holder shall | 18 | | annually certify to the Commission its production of wine | 19 | | in the previous 12 months and its anticipated production | 20 | | and sales for the next 12 months. The Commission may fine, | 21 | | suspend, or revoke a self-distribution exemption after a | 22 | | hearing if it finds that the exemption holder has made a | 23 | | material misrepresentation in its application, violated a | 24 | | revenue or liquor law of Illinois, exceeded production of | 25 | | 25,000 gallons of wine in any calendar year, or become part | 26 | | of an affiliated group producing more than 25,000 gallons |
| | | SB2765 Engrossed | - 14 - | LRB100 17580 RJF 32750 b |
|
| 1 | | of wine or any other alcoholic liquor. | 2 | | (E) Except in hearings for violations of this Act or | 3 | | Public Act 95-634 or a bona fide investigation by duly | 4 | | sworn law enforcement officials, the Commission, or its | 5 | | agents, the Commission shall maintain the production and | 6 | | sales information of a self-distribution exemption holder | 7 | | as confidential and shall not release such information to | 8 | | any person. | 9 | | (F) The Commission shall issue regulations governing | 10 | | self-distribution exemptions consistent with this Section | 11 | | and this Act. | 12 | | (G) Nothing in this subsection (17) shall prohibit a | 13 | | self-distribution exemption holder from entering into or | 14 | | simultaneously having a distribution agreement with a | 15 | | licensed Illinois distributor. | 16 | | (H) It is the intent of this subsection (17) to promote | 17 | | and continue orderly markets. The General Assembly finds | 18 | | that in order to preserve Illinois' regulatory | 19 | | distribution system it is necessary to create an exception | 20 | | for smaller makers of wine as their wines are frequently | 21 | | adjusted in varietals, mixes, vintages, and taste to find | 22 | | and create market niches sometimes too small for | 23 | | distributor or importing distributor business strategies. | 24 | | Limited self-distribution rights will afford and allow | 25 | | smaller makers of wine access to the marketplace in order | 26 | | to develop a customer base without impairing the integrity |
| | | SB2765 Engrossed | - 15 - | LRB100 17580 RJF 32750 b |
|
| 1 | | of the 3-tier system.
| 2 | | (18)(A) A class 1 brewer licensee, who must also be | 3 | | either a licensed brewer or licensed non-resident dealer | 4 | | and annually manufacture less than 930,000 gallons of beer, | 5 | | may make application to the State Commission for a | 6 | | self-distribution exemption to allow the sale of not more | 7 | | than 232,500 gallons of the exemption holder's beer to | 8 | | retail licensees per year. | 9 | | (B) In the application, which shall be sworn under | 10 | | penalty of perjury, the class 1 brewer licensee shall state | 11 | | (1) the date it was established; (2) its volume of beer | 12 | | manufactured and sold for each year since its | 13 | | establishment; (3) its efforts to establish distributor | 14 | | relationships; (4) that a self-distribution exemption is | 15 | | necessary to facilitate the marketing of its beer; and (5) | 16 | | that it will comply with the alcoholic beverage and revenue | 17 | | laws of the United States, this State, and any other state | 18 | | where it is licensed. | 19 | | (C) Any application submitted shall be posted on the | 20 | | State Commission's website at least 45 days prior to action | 21 | | by the State Commission. The State Commission shall approve | 22 | | the application for a self-distribution exemption if the | 23 | | class 1 brewer licensee: (1) is in compliance with the | 24 | | State, revenue, and alcoholic beverage laws; (2) is not a | 25 | | member of any affiliated group that manufactures more than | 26 | | 930,000 gallons of beer per annum or produces any other |
| | | SB2765 Engrossed | - 16 - | LRB100 17580 RJF 32750 b |
|
| 1 | | alcoholic beverages; (3) shall not annually manufacture | 2 | | for sale more than 930,000 gallons of beer; (4) shall not | 3 | | annually sell more than 232,500 gallons of its beer to | 4 | | retail licensees; and (5) has relinquished any brew pub | 5 | | license held by the licensee, including any ownership | 6 | | interest it held in the licensed brew pub. | 7 | | (D) A self-distribution exemption holder shall | 8 | | annually certify to the State Commission its manufacture of | 9 | | beer during the previous 12 months and its anticipated | 10 | | manufacture and sales of beer for the next 12 months. The | 11 | | State Commission may fine, suspend, or revoke a | 12 | | self-distribution exemption after a hearing if it finds | 13 | | that the exemption holder has made a material | 14 | | misrepresentation in its application, violated a revenue | 15 | | or alcoholic beverage law of Illinois, exceeded the | 16 | | manufacture of 930,000 gallons of beer in any calendar year | 17 | | or became part of an affiliated group manufacturing more | 18 | | than 930,000 gallons of beer or any other alcoholic | 19 | | beverage. | 20 | | (E) The State Commission shall issue rules and | 21 | | regulations governing self-distribution exemptions | 22 | | consistent with this Act. | 23 | | (F) Nothing in this paragraph (18) shall prohibit a | 24 | | self-distribution exemption holder from entering into or | 25 | | simultaneously having a distribution agreement with a | 26 | | licensed Illinois importing distributor or a distributor. |
| | | SB2765 Engrossed | - 17 - | LRB100 17580 RJF 32750 b |
|
| 1 | | If a self-distribution exemption holder enters into a | 2 | | distribution agreement and has assigned distribution | 3 | | rights to an importing distributor or distributor, then the | 4 | | self-distribution exemption holder's distribution rights | 5 | | in the assigned territories shall cease in a reasonable | 6 | | time not to exceed 60 days. | 7 | | (G) It is the intent of this paragraph (18) to promote | 8 | | and continue orderly markets. The General Assembly finds | 9 | | that in order to preserve Illinois' regulatory | 10 | | distribution system, it is necessary to create an exception | 11 | | for smaller manufacturers in order to afford and allow such | 12 | | smaller manufacturers of beer access to the marketplace in | 13 | | order to develop a customer base without impairing the | 14 | | integrity of the 3-tier system. | 15 | | (b) On or before April 30, 1999, the Commission shall | 16 | | present a written
report to the Governor and the General | 17 | | Assembly that shall be based on a study
of the impact of Public | 18 | | Act 90-739 on the business of soliciting,
selling, and shipping
