House Bill No. introduced by F. Nave proposes an amendment to Section 69-12-314 of the Montana Code Annotated, which pertains to the regulation of Class D motor carriers. The bill aims to exempt certain individuals or entities from the requirement of obtaining a Class D motor carrier certificate of public convenience and necessity. Specifically, it allows those providing garbage cleanup and transportation services on an irregular basis, where rates are determined by a one-time service agreement for transport between specific locations, to engage in such transportation without the need for a Class D certificate.
Additionally, the bill stipulates that these exempted service providers must not operate vehicles that require a commercial driver's license or any other special driver's license. This amendment seeks to streamline regulations for occasional garbage transport services, potentially reducing barriers for small operators in the waste management sector.
