PROPOSED RULEMAKING

[67 PA. CODE CH. 175]

Vehicle Equipment and Inspection; Notice of Intent to Promulgate Regulation and Request for Public Participation

[29 Pa.B. 3894]

   The Department of Transportation, Bureau of Motor Vehicles, under the authority contained in sections 4303 and 6103 of the Vehicle Code as amended (75 Pa.C.S. §§ 4303 and 6103), and consistent with the goals of Executive Order 1996-1, February 6, 1996, Regulatory Review and Promulgation, announces its intention to amend Title 67 of the Pennsylvania Code by amending Chapter 175, Vehicle Equipment and Inspection.

   The purpose of this rulemaking is to bring Chapter 175 into compliance with act of July 6, 1995, P. L. 246, No. 30, which amended section 4703 of the Vehicle Code (75 Pa.C.S. § 4703) (relating to operation of vehicle without official certificate of inspection). This rulemaking will establish equipment and inspection criteria for farm vehicles with a gross weight or gross vehicle weight rating of greater than 17,000 pounds and for which a Type I biennial certificate of exemption has been issued. Interim equipment and inspection criteria were published at 25 Pa.B. 3540 (August 26, 1995), effective October 2, 1995, which were to continue in effect until regulations governing equipment standards and inspection criteria for the subject vehicles were promulgated by the Department.

   The Department anticipates that this rulemaking will affect owners of farm vehicles with a gross weight or gross vehicle weight rating of greater than 17,000 pounds and for which a Type I biennial certificate of exemption has been issued.

   Accordingly, the Department is requesting that within 30 days of the publication of this notice in the Pennsylvania Bulletin, all interested persons desiring to participate in the development of this rulemaking or that have questions, suggestions or comments, please contact Thomas Zamboni, at 1101 South Front Street, Third Floor, Riverfront Office Center, Harrisburg, PA, 17104, or by calling (717) 787-2895.
