This bill amends the Motor Vehicle Registration Act in Nebraska to introduce permanent trailer license plates specifically for commercial fertilizer trailers. It defines a "commercial fertilizer trailer" as one owned by individuals or businesses that sell agricultural fertilizer or chemicals. The bill outlines the process for registering these trailers, including a one-dollar application fee for the permanent license plate, which will remain valid as long as the trailer is registered under the Motor Vehicle Registration Act. Additionally, it specifies that if the trailer changes ownership or is no longer registered, the license plate must be returned to the department.
The bill also harmonizes existing provisions and repeals certain sections of the current law. Notably, it adds new language to sections 60-301, 60-302, 60-3,101, and 60-3,104, while also introducing a new section (section 6) that details the registration process for the permanent trailer license plates. The renewal fee for these plates is set at one dollar, and provisions are included for replacing lost or destroyed plates and registration certificates. Overall, the bill aims to streamline the registration process for commercial fertilizer trailers while ensuring compliance with existing regulations.
