Summary

Session
Regular Session 2015
Title
Transportation Department, junkyard, regulation, adjacent to national highway system, primary system defined, Sec. 23-1-241 am'd.
Description

Under existing federal law, the State Department of Transportation has the responsibility to control junkyards in areas adjacent to any highway included in the national systems of interstate and primary highways. Under existing state law, the Highway Beautification Act-Junkyard Control, defines the primary highway system in this state to include highways approved by the U. S.

Department of Transportation. In July of 2012, the federal law was amended to add a definition of primary highway system.

This bill would adopt the federal definition and define "primary system" for the purposes of junkyard regulations as any highway on the National Highway System, including interstate highways.
