A nonresident is ineligible to obtain a resident registration for a |
snowmobile owned by that nonresident. Nothing in this subsection |
authorizes the operation of a snowmobile in a manner contrary to |
this chapter. Snowmobiles and grooming equipment registered to a |
federal or state entity, snowmobile clubs, municipalities or |
counties from bordering states or provinces and engaged in trail |
grooming may be operated without being registered under this |
subsection. Snowmobiles registered in either New Hampshire or |
Canada may be operated on any lake or pond that is both partly in |
the State and New Hampshire or Canada without being registered in |
the State. Snowmobiles registered in another state or in a |
Canadian province may be operated without a Maine registration at a |
special event or festival organized to occur in this State if such |
operation is approved by the commissioner.__An event or festival |
organizer must submit a request in writing to the commissioner 60 |
days prior to the event or festival and shall include a map of the |
trails where operation will be allowed. |
