Gonzalez: No, it wasn't this one. Masuda: We're getting kind of (off track). Smith: Yes, okay, but it's part of education. So we already voted on it, right? Gonzalez: You voted for the violation. You still have to vote on the penalty. Smith: Any further discussion? There was no further discussion from the Board Members. Smith: All in favor say, "Aye." The Board Members voted "Aye." Smith: Any opposition? There was no opposition from the Board Members. Smith: Hearing none, motion carried. The motion was carried unanimously. Smith: A written Decision and Order will be prepared and served upon the Licensee, which will be due and payable within thirty (30) days of its receipt. Brandon, will you go back and take samples of the alcohol? Gonzalez: Yes, we can. We can go back and collect samples. We can collect and test them. Mukai: I have a question. Let's say that the findings say that the alcohol was tampered with. Do we bill the vendor or the license holder for the cost of the test? Gonzalez: No, we do not. But I guess it could be imposed as part of the penalty. Mukai: I think going forward, we should probably consider it. Taniguchi: We can do it at the penalty phase. We can just add that. Gonzalez: We can add that part. That might be something... Mukai: Okay, thank you. Smith: But if the penalty is revocation, I mean, you know. Mukai: Oh, that's true. Smith: okay.
