This bill amends the Code of West Virginia to authorize the Parkways Authority to promulgate a legislative rule that supports electronic toll collection and enforcement. Specifically, it addresses the legislative rule that was filed in the State Register on July 31, 2024, and subsequently modified to meet the objections of the Legislative Rule-Making Review Committee before being refiled on October 11, 2024. The rule in question is identified as 184 CSR 05.

The primary purpose of this legislation is to facilitate the implementation of electronic toll collection systems, which are intended to improve efficiency and enforcement in toll collection processes. By granting the Parkways Authority the authority to establish this rule, the bill aims to enhance the operational capabilities of the Department of Transportation in managing tolls on parkways.
