METHODOLOGY:

This bill allows for the state fire marshal to detail personnel for public or private events for the purpose of law enforcement, code enforcement, and other functions performed outside regular business hours.  It is unknown how much detail work will be performed, or at what rate, but it is assumed that while state revenues and expenditures would both increase, it would be at a zero net cost to the state as all detail work would be reimbursed by the outside entities.
