6/5/08-SB760 has died. However, the provision is included in a bill – SB930 – on Gov. Matt Blunt’s desk.
5/6/08-The House Rules Committee has advanced a bill to the chamber floor that would authorize the state to implement and administer the Unified Carrier Registration Act. It is a federal act intended to replace the Single State Registration System.
UCR is a plan that will have a fee structure that goes from the old per-truck basis to a per-carrier basis and will be the same for all member states. Truckers will no longer have to pick and choose states, as they do with the SSRS. One fee will cover all states.
Sponsored by Senate Transportation Chairman Bill Stouffer, R-Napton, SB760 already passed the Senate.
