For further information, please contact the Of- fice of the Public Advisor. INFORMATIVE DIGEST/POLICY STATEMENT OVERVIEW Pursuant to California Insurance Code

Section 11624, the Commissioner establishes rates to be charged to those obtaining commercial automobile cov- erage through CAIP.

Section 11624 provides: “Premi- um charges for the plan shall not be excessive, inade- quate, nor unfairly discriminatory, and shall be actuari- ally sound so as to result in no subsidy of the plan.” Title 10, California Code of Regulations, §2498.5 references the commercial automobile rate manual, which is ap- proved by the Commissioner but not printed in full in the California Code of Regulations. The Commissioner is holding the hearing referenced above to accept comments on CAARP’s recent rate ap- plication.

CAARP has proposed rate changes for five CAIP sub−lines, amounting to an overall average 25.4 percent rate increase. The five sub−lines are Trucks, Tractor and Trailers; Taxis, Limousines and Van Pools; All Buses Combined; Zone Rated Risks and Employers Non−Ownership Liability. Further details appear in the rate application on file with the Commissioner and available for review as set forth below. COMPARABLE FEDERAL LAW There are no comparable existing federal regulations or statutes.

LOCAL MANDATE DETERMINATION The Insurance Commissioner has initially deter- mined that the application will not result in any new program mandates on local agencies or school districts. MANDATES ON LOCAL AGENCIES OR SCHOOL DISTRICTS OR COSTS WHICH MUST BE REIMBURSED PURSUANT TO GOVERNMENT CODE SECTIONS 17500 THROUGH 17630 The Insurance Commissioner has initially deter- mined that the application will not result in any cost or significant savings to any local agency or school district for which

Part 7 (commencing with

Section 17500) of Division 4 of the Government Code would require re- imbursement, or in other nondiscretionary costs or sav- ings to local agencies. COST OR SA VINGS TO ANY STATE AGENCY; FEDERAL FUNDING The Commissioner has determined that the applica- tion will result in no cost or savings to any state agency and no cost or savings in federal funding to the state.

SIGNIFICANT STATEWIDE ADVERSE ECONOMIC IMPACT ON BUSINESSES AND THE ABILITY OF CALIFORNIA BUSINESSES TO COMPETE CAARP is proposing overall rate increases for Trucks, Tractor and Trailers; Taxis, Limousines and Van Pools; All Buses Combined; Zone Rated Risks and Employers Non−Ownership Liability. Although the number of commercial auto applications placed by CAARP is small, the proposed rate changes could have a statewide economic impact directly affecting busi- nesses, including the ability of California businesses to 474

CALIFORNIA REGULATORY NOTICE REGISTER 2020, VOLUME NUMBER 13-Z compete with businesses in other states. The proposed rate changes could also impact competition or competi- tiveness. The proposal could also affect the creation or elimination of jobs in California, the creation of new businesses, the elimination of existing businesses, or the expansion of businesses in California. However, California Insurance Code

section 11624(

e) requires that premium charges for the plan shall be actuarially sound so as to result in no subsidy of the plan by the vol- untary market. Therefore, if and to the extent that CAARP is able to demonstrate that certain existing rates are no longer actuarially sound and that rate in- creases are warranted, the Commissioner is required to approve increased rates. Of course, the Commissioner also recognizes that

section 11624(

e) requires that rates not be excessive, and the Commissioner will not ap- prove an increase that results in excessive rates. COST IMPACTS ON PRIV ATE PERSONS OR ENTITIES The Insurance Commissioner has determined that there could be potential cost impacts on businesses di- rectly affected by the proposed rate increases. Although the rate application involves commercial automobile insurance rates, to the extent a rate increase impacts business, it could also impact private persons employed by those businesses.

The rate increase could also impact private persons wishing to purchase goods or services from businesses if the price of goods or services is in- creased to cover the increased cost of insurance coverage. IMPACT ON HOUSING COSTS The Insurance Commissioner has initially deter- mined that the application will not affect housing costs. IMPACT ON SMALL BUSINESS The proposed rate changes could affect small businesses. SPECIFIC TECHNOLOGIES OR EQUIPMENT The application would not mandate the use of specif- ic technologies or equipment.

ALTERNATIVES The Insurance Commissioner must determine that no reasonable alternative considered by the agency, or that has otherwise been identified and brought to the atten- tion of the agency, would be more effective in carrying out the purpose for which the action is proposed or would be as effective and less burdensome to affected private persons than the proposed action. PLAIN ENGLISH The application describing the proposal is in plain English. However, the application itself is based on technical actuarial principles.

TEXT AND INITIAL STATEMENT OF REASONS The Department has prepared an Initial Statement of Reasons addressing the proposed rate application in ad- dition to the Informative Digest included in this notice. The Initial Statement of Reasons, this Notice of Pro- posed Action and Text of Regulations are available for inspection or copying, and will be provided at no charge upon request to the contact person listed above.

INFORMATIVE DIGEST/POLICY STATEMENT OVERVIEW CA 20−06 California Insurance Code Sections 11629.7 through 11629.85 establish, within the California Automobile Assigned Risk Plan, established under

Section 11620 of the Insurance Code, a statewide Low Cost Automobile Insurance Program. Because the program is established and administered through the CAARP, CAARP procedures are applied where appropriate and consistent with the low cost au- tomobile insurance statutes. Insurance Code Sections 11620 and 11624 require the Commissioner to hold a public hearing before amending assigned risk plan rates.

Section 11629.7 of the Insurance Code requires that, after a public hearing, the Commissioner shall approve or issue a reasonable plan for the equitable apportion- ment, among insurers, of eligible consumers. The plan also contains rules and rates. This plan, approved by the Commissioner, is referenced in Title 10,

Section 2498.6 of the California Code of Regulations. Under the program, the low−cost auto policy satisfies financial responsibility laws and provides coverage of $10,000 for liability for bodily injury or death to one person, subject to a cumulative limit of $20,000 for all persons in one accident, and $3,000 for liability for damage to property. In addition to eligibility and other requirements, the statute sets forth the annual premium rates. In certain cases, surcharges are added to the base rate. The statute also provides procedures for adjusting the rates. Insurance Code

Section 11629.72(

c) provides that, annually, CAARP shall submit to the Commissioner a proposed rate and surcharge for approval. Accordingly, CAARP has submitted a proposal to increase the cur- rent rate 3.8% for the liability policy.

TITLE 11.

COMMISSION ON PEACE OFFICER STANDARDS AND TRAINING Notice is hereby given that the Commission on Peace Officer Standards and Training (POST) proposes to amend regulations in Division 2 of Title 11 of the Cali- fornia Code of Regulations as described below in the In- formative Digest. A public hearing is not scheduled. Pursuant to Government Code

section 11346.8, any in- terested person, or his/her duly authorized representa- tive, may request a public hearing. POST must receive the written request no later than 15 days prior to the close of the public comment period. PUBLIC COMMENTS DUE BY MAY 11, 2020 Notice is also given that any interested person, or au- thorized representative, may submit written comments relevant to the proposed regulatory action by fax at (916) 227−4547, by email to Veronica Wolfram, or by letter to: Commission on POST Attention: Veronica Wolfram 860 Stillwater Road, Suite 100 West Sacramento, CA 95605−1630 AUTHORITY AND REFERENCE This proposal is made pursuant to the authority vest- ed by Penal Code

Section 13503 (authority of the Com- mission on POST) and Penal Code

section 13506 (POST authority to adopt regulations). This proposal is intended to interpret, implement, and make specific Pe- nal Code

section 13503(e), which authorizes POST to develop and implement programs to increase the effec- tiveness of law enforcement, including programs in- volving training and education courses. INFORMATIVE DIGEST/POLICY STATEMENT OVERVIEW Penal Code § 13510 requires that POST develop guidelines and a course of instruction and training for law enforcement officers who are employed as peace officers, or who are not yet employed as a peace officer but are enrolled in a training academy for law enforce- ment officers.

This proposed action will update the in- corporated by reference document, Training and Test- ing Specifications for Peace Officer Basic Courses (re- vised 4/1/2020). As part of an ongoing review of the Regular Basic Course content, POST staff and curriculum consultants review Learning Domain content to determine currency and job task relevancy. This process is facilitated by POST and attended by subject matter experts, academy directors, and coordinators. Some of the more signifi- cant outcomes of these workshops are recommenda- tions for updating and enhancing the basic courses.

Entry−level peace officers are expected to be compe- tent with a basic awareness of the intelligence system, terrorism threats, suspicious activity reporting process and the importance of critical infrastructure protection. Proposed changes were made to improve instruction- al sequencing of topical content and condense material under a domain title consistent with entry−level peace officer tasks related to emergency management and re- sponse.

Changes made to Learning Domains 26, 41, and 43 were to condense content into two more focused learning domains, remove duplicative information, re- move or update outdated information, and align the cur- riculum with guidelines and terms utilized by organiza- tions within the national industry (Department of Homeland Security [DHS], Federal Emergency Man- agement Agency [FEMA] e.g., state and local govern- ments, law enforcement, and other first responders). Hours were added to Learning Domain 32 to reflect the minimum hours required to complete the required ob- jectives and required learning activities.

To enhance student performance and retention, the Required Learning Activities were updated to reflect emerging training needs and enhance student knowl- edge in the subjects. The benefit anticipated by the proposed amendments to the regulations will be to update the Training and Testing Specifications for Peace Officer Basic Courses, which will increase the effectiveness of law enforce- ment standards for peace officers in preserving peace, protection of public health and safety, and welfare of California. 479

CALIFORNIA REGULATORY NOTICE REGISTER 2020, VOLUME NUMBER 13-Z During the process of developing these regulations and amendments, POST has conducted a search of any similar regulations on this topic and has concluded that these regulations are neither inconsistent nor incompat- ible with existing state regulations. All changes to curriculum begin with recommenda- tions from law enforcement practitioners or in some cases via legislative mandates. POST then facilitates meetings attended by curriculum advisors and subject matter experts who provide recommended changes to existing curriculum.

The completed work of all com- mittees is presented to the POST Commission for final review and adoption. Upon adoption of the proposed amendments, academies and course presenters will be required to teach and test the updated curriculum. The proposed effective date is October 1, 2020. DOCUMENT INCORPORATED BY REFERENCE Training and Testing Specifications for Peace Officer Basic Courses revised 04/01/2020.

ADOPTION OF PROPOSED REGULATIONS Following the public comment period, the Commis- sion may adopt the proposal substantially as set forth without further notice, or the Commission may modify the proposal if such modifications remain sufficiently related to the text as described in the Informative Di- gest.

If the Commission makes changes to the language before the date of adoption, the text of any modified lan- guage, clearly indicated, will be made available at least 15 days before adoption to all persons whose comments were received by POST during the public comment pe- riod and to all persons who request notification from POST of the availability of such changes. A request for the modified text should be addressed to the agency of- ficial designated in this notice. The Commission will accept written comments on the modified text for 15 days after the date that the revised text is made available.

ESTIMATE OF ECONOMIC IMPACT Fiscal Impact on Public Agencies including Costs or Savings to State Agencies or Costs/Savings in Federal Funding to the State: None. Non−Discretionary Costs/Savings to Local Agen- cies: None. Local Mandate: None. Costs to any Local Agency or School District for which Government Code sections 17500−17630 re- quire reimbursement: None.

Significant Statewide Adverse Economic Impact Di- rectly Affecting California Businesses, including Small Business: The Commission on Peace Officer Standards and Training has made an initial determination that the amended regulations will not have a significant statewide adverse economic impact directly affecting California businesses, including the ability of Califor- nia businesses to compete with businesses in other states.

The Commission on Peace Officer Standards and Training has found that the proposed amendments will not affect California businesses, including small busi- nesses, because the Commission sets selection and training standards for law enforcement, which does not impact California businesses, including small businesses. Effect on Housing Costs: The Commission on Peace Officer Standards and Training has made an initial de- termination that the proposed regulation would have no effect on housing costs. RESULTS OF ECONOMIC IMPACT ASSESSMENT PER GOV . CODE

SECTION 11346.3(

b) The adoption of the proposed amendments of regul- ations will neither create nor eliminate jobs in the State of California, nor result in the elimination of existing businesses or create or expand businesses in the State of California. The benefits of the proposed amendments to the regu- lations will be increased efficiency of the state of Cali- fornia in delivering services to stakeholders. Thus, the law enforcement standards are maintained and effective in preserving peace and protection of public health, safety, and welfare in California.

There would be no im- pact that would affect worker safety or the State’s envi- ronment.

CONSIDERATION OF ALTERNATIVES To take this action, the Commission must determine that no reasonable alternative considered by the Com- mission, or otherwise identified and brought to the at- tention of the Commission, would be more effective in carrying out the purpose for which the action is pro- posed, or would be as effective as and less burdensome to affected private persons than the proposed action, or would be more cost−effective to affected private per- sons and equally effective in implementing the statuto- ry policy or other provision of law than the proposed action. 480
