The Department of Alcoholic Beverage Control and the Department of Agriculture
shall carry out annually conducted random, unannounced inspections of retail
establishments where tobacco products, alternative nicotine products, or vapor
products are sold or distributed for the purpose of enforcing the provisions of KRS
438.305 to 438.340. The inspections shall be conducted to the extent necessary to
assure that the Commonwealth remains in compliance with Public Law 102-321
and applicable federal regulations. The Department of Alcoholic Beverage Control
and the Department of Agriculture shall also ensure that targeted inspections are
conducted at those retail establishments where, and at those times when, persons
under the age of eighteen (18) years are most likely to purchase tobacco products,
alternative nicotine products, or vapor products. Persons under the age of eighteen
(18) years may be used to test compliance with the provisions of KRS 438.305 to
438.340 only if the testing is conducted under the direct supervision of the
Department of Alcoholic Beverage Control, sheriff, or chief of police, or their
employees, and written parental consent has been obtained. The Department of
Alcoholic Beverage Control shall prepare annually, for submission by the Governor
to the Secretary of the United States Department of Health and Human Services, the
report required by Section 1926 of Subpart 1 of Part B of Title XIX of the Federal
Public Health Service Act.
The Department of Alcoholic Beverage Control shall develop and implement the
