Lincoln County conducts Alcohol Compliance Checks
6 of 7 establishments checked passed the check

Members of the Lincoln County Alcohol Enforcement Team conducted a second round of Alcohol Compliance Checks Saturday, December 3 to determine if local establishments would serve alcohol to minors. In Libby six of the seven businesses checked passed the sting - the employee asked for valid ID, verified the buyer was under 21 and refused the sale or service of alcohol to the minor. Deputy Robert Salyer from Eureka conducted the Libby area compliance checks with the underage buyer and was assisted by the Libby Police Department.

The Interagency Alcohol Enforcement Team (AET) includes officers from all law enforcement agencies within Lincoln County including the Lincoln County Sheriff's Office, Montana Highway Patrol, Troy, Libby and Eureka City Police Departments. In an ongoing effort to further reduce underage drinking and drinking and driving, the Lincoln County Sheriff's Office secured funding that allowed for the formation of the AET and subsequent training in environmental prevention strategies through grant dollars made available by the Montana Board of Crime Control's Enforcing Underage Drinking Laws (EUDL) grant. Grant funded enforcement operations aimed at reducing both retail and social availability such as compliance checks, party patrols, shoulder tap operations and source investigations will continue through December 2012.
