Noting an arrest from the California Alcohol Beverage Control on the Sheriff Log for the Lake Tulloch BUMP party on August 18, 2012 the Copper Gazette contacted the ABC regarding the arrests and their presence at BUMP VI. The following is a portion of the letter received from the Stockton Office District Administrator.
"ABC
received several reports from the Calaveras County Sheriff’s Office
detailing disorderly activity that occurred on or about Lake Tulloch
Resort during the last “Bump” party held in June. As a result, ABC
filed an accusation against the license resulting in a decision being
issued on August 17, 2012. The decision suspended their ABC license for
a period of 15 days. The suspension period was stayed for a period of
one year. This means that they would not initially have to serve the 15
day suspension. They would be responsible for the penalty only if they
had like violations occur again during the next year."
At BUMP VI on August 18, 2012 "ABC
Agents did assist the Calaveras County Sheriff’s Office in working the
last “Bump” party." ABC "Agents made a total of 16 arrests at
the event. Fourteen of those arrests resulted in a misdemeanor citation
for alcohol related offenses. Two of the arrests resulted in booking
the subject. Of the two that were booked, one was for violations of
11377 HS (possession of a controlled substance) and 25658(a) BP
(furnishing an alcoholic beverage to a minor) and the other was for
violation of 647(f) PC –(public drunkenness)."
The administrator stated he is waiting to review the weekend reports to "determine whether or not pursuing further disciplinary
action is warranted. That disciplinary action could range from the
licensee having to pay a fine up to suspension of the ABC license."
