House Bill 430 seeks to repeal the process for establishing county-owned scales in Montana by eliminating several sections of the Montana Code Annotated (MCA). Specifically, the bill repeals sections 7-21-3101 through 7-21-3108, which cover various aspects related to public scales, including their establishment, ownership, design, appointment of public weighers, bonding requirements, record-keeping, fees for weighing, and misconduct by public weighers.

By removing these sections, the bill effectively discontinues the regulatory framework that governs the operation and oversight of public scales at the county level. This legislative change may streamline processes related to weighing services but also raises questions about the implications for public accountability and standardization in weighing practices within the state.
