| This bill authorizes the Commissioner of Transportation to |
conduct a pilot project allowing certain commercial vehicle |
configurations at Canadian weight limits to travel from the |
Canadian border at Houlton to New Limerick and from the Canadian |
border at Calais to Baileyville. The bill requires trucks |
participating in the pilot project to display a credential |
obtained for a fee from the Secretary of State. The bill directs |
the Secretary of State to adopt routine technical rules to |
implement the credentialing process. The bill also requires the |
Commissioner of Transportation to submit a report on the status |
of the pilot project and recommendations to the joint standing |
committee of the Legislature having jurisdiction over |
transportation matters for presentation to the First Regular |
Session of the 126th Legislature. |
