The bill establishes a highway tolling program in Wyoming, granting the Department of Transportation the authority to create and implement tolling on state highways. It defines key terms such as "Commission," "Department," and "Highway," and outlines the responsibilities of the Department in developing necessary documentation for tolling, which must comply with federal law. The Department is required to submit this documentation to the Wyoming Transportation Commission and the Federal Highway Administration for approval before any tolling can be implemented.
Additionally, the bill stipulates that tolling cannot commence until the relevant documentation is approved and the legislature enacts legislation either granting general authority for the tolling program or authorizing tolls for specific highways. The Commission and the Department are also empowered to create rules necessary for the program's implementation. The act is set to take effect immediately upon the completion of all legislative processes required for a bill to become law.
