Under current law, no person may operate on a highway any vehicle or
combination of vehicles that exceeds certain statutory size or weight limits unless

the person obtains a permit issued by the Department of Transportation (DOT) or
a local highway authority or unless an exception applies. Statutory restrictions on
vehicle size and weight generally apply to the vehicle as loaded. The general
statutory weight limits on vehicles and vehicle combinations operated on a highway
include weight limits per wheel, axle, and group of axles (based on the number and
spacing of axles). DOT and local highway authorities may also impose, by posting
highway signs on weakened highways, special weight limits that are less than the
general statutory weight limits. In addition, local authorities may designate
highways under their jurisdiction as class "B" highways, which results, with
exceptions, in the maximum permissible weight for vehicles on these highways being
reduced to 60 percent of the otherwise applicable statutory weight.
Under current law, increased statutory per-axle and per-axle group weight
limits for implements of husbandry and agricultural CMVs are approximately 15
percent higher than the general statutory weight limits. However, an implement of
husbandry or agricultural CMV operated on a highway may not, without a permit,
have a gross weight of more than 92,000 pounds, subject to limited exceptions. The
increased weight allowance for implements of husbandry and agricultural CMVs,
and the gross weight limit of 92,000 pounds, expires on January 1, 2020, at which
time the general statutory weight limits again apply to implements of husbandry
and agricultural CMVs.
Under current law, there are additional weight limit exceptions applicable to
implements of husbandry and agricultural CMVs operated on a highway, which also
expire on January 1, 2020. For example, there is no weight limit per wheel, axle, or
group of axles for any of the following implements of husbandry: 1) an empty potato
harvester if certain conditions are met; 2) farm equipment traveling between fields,
or between a farm and a field, on the highway for a distance of 0.5 miles or less; or
3) farm equipment operated on a highway under the jurisdiction of a county or
municipality, unless the county or municipality has adopted an ordinance
designating statutory weight limits for the highway. A potato harvester identified
in item 1), above, and farm equipment identified in item 3), above, is subject to the
gross weight limit of 92,000 pounds, but farm equipment identified in item 2), above,
is not. These implements of husbandry identified in items 1) to 3), above, are subject
to posted special weight limits but are not subject to a reduction of permissible weight
on class "B" highways. In addition, there is no weight limit per wheel, axle, or group
of axles, and no gross weight limit, for an implement of husbandry or agricultural
CMV being operated or transported by an implement dealer or farmer for repair,
servicing, or delivery if certain conditions are met, but these vehicles are subject to
posted special weight limits. If a county or municipality has adopted an ordinance
designating statutory weight limits for farm equipment as provided in item 3), above,
the ordinance must be valid for at least one calendar year and must be adopted on
or before January 15 of the calendar year in which it takes effect. The county or
municipality must also forward to DOT a copy of the ordinance and DOT must
publish it on DOT's Internet site.
This bill provides that the additional weight limit exceptions identified in items
2) and 3), above, also apply to an agricultural CMV except when being used to apply

or offload manure or assist a harvester. The bill expands the increased weight limit
for implements of husbandry and agricultural CMVs operated on a highway to also
apply to two-vehicle combinations transporting by trailer or semitrailer an
implement of husbandry or agricultural CMV from farm to field, from field to field,
or from farm to farm. Subject to the exceptions discussed below, the 92,000 pound
gross weight limit also applies to these two-vehicle combinations transporting
implements of husbandry or agricultural CMVs, and this increased weight
allowance also expires on January 1, 2020. The bill further provides that the
additional weight limit exceptions identified in items 1) to 3), above, also apply to a
two-vehicle combination transporting by trailer or semitrailer such an implement
of husbandry or agricultural CMV (with respect to items 2) and 3)) from farm to field,
from field to field, or from farm to farm. Under the bill, an ordinance designating
statutory weight limits for farm equipment as provided in item 3), above, and any
amendment to such an ordinance, must be adopted on or before November 30 of the
year before the ordinance or amendment takes effect and must be forwarded to DOT
no later than January 20 of the year it takes effect. The bill also removes a limitation
under current law that provisions applicable to potato harvesters apply only if the
potato harvester is a self-propelled vehicle.
Under current law, a "maintaining authority" of a highway may issue a "no-fee
permit" authorizing operation on the highway of implements of husbandry and
agricultural CMVs that exceed statutory weight limits. These permits may be
issued, and remain valid, only until January 1, 2020. Current law defines a
"maintaining authority" of a highway as: 1) DOT or its designee, with respect to a
state trunk highway; or 2) the municipality or county responsible for maintenance
of the highway or its designee (local authority), with respect to a highway that is not
a state trunk highway. An application for a no-fee permit must be accompanied by
a listing or map of the highways that may potentially be traveled under
authorization of the permit. With limited exceptions, information in the permit
application must be kept confidential. If a no-fee permit is issued, upon application,
the no-fee permit may be amended by the maintaining authority to reflect changes
in the applicant's circumstances, including a change in the highways to be traveled.
If a maintaining authority denies an application for a no-fee permit, it must notify
the applicant in writing of the denial and the notice must include a reasonable and
structurally based explanation of the denial that relates to the preservation of the
roadway. If the application is made with respect to farm equipment and the only
basis to deny the application is the listing or map of highways accompanying the
application, the maintaining authority must modify the application to include an
approved alternate route or map of highways for operation of the farm equipment
and approve the application. This approved alternate route or map of highways may
include highways that are not under the jurisdiction of the maintaining authority
issuing the permit only upon prior approval of the maintaining authority having
jurisdiction over those highways. If a no-fee permit application is denied, the
applicant has a right to administrative review of the decision.
This bill allows a no-fee permit to be issued for a two-vehicle combination
transporting by trailer or semitrailer an implement of husbandry or agricultural

CMV from farm to field, from field to field, or from farm to farm. In addition, for
purposes of permit issuance, the bill treats agricultural CMVs in a manner similar
to farm equipment. The bill also specifies that a vehicle or vehicle combination
operating under a no-fee permit on a highway under the jurisdiction of the
maintaining authority that issued the permit may cross any intersecting highway.
Under the bill, a municipality is not subject to open meetings requirements in
making its initial determination on an application for a no-fee permit. The bill
further requires a local authority, in a meeting to review the denial of a no-fee permit
application, to deliberate or conduct any proceeding related to the review in closed
session, with the permit applicant present for any evidentiary hearing or argument.
The local authority must keep confidential all information provided by the permit
applicant during the proceeding, but this information may be included in the written
decision and may be disclosed in any court proceeding for judicial review of the
decision.
Under current law, a county or municipality may, by ordinance, authorize
operation of implements of husbandry and agricultural CMVs exceeding statutory
length or weight limitations on any or all highways under the county's or
municipality's jurisdiction. The ordinance serves as a no-fee permit. The ordinance
must be valid for at least one calendar year and must be adopted on or before January
15 of the calendar year in which it takes effect. The county or municipality must also
forward to DOT a copy of the ordinance and DOT must publish it on DOT's Internet
site. Under the bill, the ordinance, and any amendment to the ordinance, must be
adopted on or before November 30 of the year before the ordinance or amendment
takes effect and must be forwarded to DOT no later than January 20 of the year it
takes effect.
Under current law, unless an exception applies, a person may not, without a
permit, operate on a highway any vehicle having a total width in excess of 8 feet 6
inches. However, there is generally no width limitation for implements of husbandry
operated on a highway, although certain wide implements of husbandry are subject
to lighting and marking requirements. There is also no width limitation if the
implement of husbandry is being operated or transported by an implement dealer or
farmer for repair, servicing, or delivery and certain conditions are met.
Under this bill, there is no width limitation for implements of husbandry being
transported by trailer or semitrailer on a highway from farm to field, from field to
field, or from farm to farm, at times other than hours of darkness, although certain
wide implements of husbandry are subject to lighting and marking requirements.
Under current law, unless an exception applies, a person may not, without a
permit, operate on a highway any single vehicle with an overall length in excess of
45 feet or any combination of two vehicles with an overall length in excess of 70 feet.
Under one exception, an implement of husbandry operated on a highway without a
permit may not exceed 60 feet in length if the implement of husbandry is a single
vehicle or 100 feet in length if the implement of husbandry is a two-vehicle
combination. These same length limits also apply if the implement of husbandry is
being operated or transported by an implement dealer or farmer for repair, servicing,
or delivery and certain conditions are met.

Under this bill, these same length limits also apply to an implement of
husbandry being transported by trailer or semitrailer on a highway from farm to
field, from field to field, or from farm to farm. The bill also provides for an overall
length limit of 100 feet for a two-vehicle combination transporting by trailer or
semitrailer an implement of husbandry from farm to field, from field to field, or from
farm to farm.
Under current law, unless an exception applies, a person may not, without a
permit, operate on a highway any vehicle having an overall height in excess of 13.5
feet. Under one exception, there is no height limit for an implement of husbandry.
However, with an exception, the operator of the implement of husbandry is
responsible for ensuring that there is adequate height clearance between the
implement of husbandry and overhead structures or obstructions.
Under this bill, there is no height limit for a two-vehicle combination
transporting by trailer or semitrailer an implement of husbandry from farm to field,
from field to field, or from farm to farm, but the operator of the two-vehicle
combination is, with an exception, responsible for ensuring that there is adequate
height clearance between the implement of husbandry being transported and any
overhead structure or obstruction.
Under current law, vehicle equipment requirements do not apply to
implements of husbandry unless application is expressly specified by statute.
Current law prohibits a person from operating on a highway any vehicle, including
an implement of husbandry, that has on the periphery of its tires any flange, cleat,
or other protuberance of any material other than rubber that projects beyond the
tread of the traction surface of the tire, except that implements of husbandry may
be operated with metal tires or tires having protuberances that will not injure the
highway.
This bill specifies that an implement of husbandry having rubber tracks or
tracks made of equivalent material may be operated on a highway if it will not injure
the highway.
Under current law, if any bill introduced in either house of the legislature
directly or indirectly establishes an exception to vehicle weight limits, DOT must
prepare a report, containing specified information, relating to the bill within six
weeks after the bill is introduced and before any vote is taken on the bill.
This bill directs DOT not to prepare such a report on this bill.
For further information see the state and local fiscal estimate, which will be
printed as an appendix to this bill.
