2 RECOGNIZING THE IMPORTANCE OF IDAHO'S ACTIVE PARTICIPATION IN THE MULTISTATE
3 HIGHWAY TRANSPORTATION AGREEMENT, AND SUPPORTING THE CONTINUING APPOINT-
4 MENT OF AN IDAHO REPRESENTATIVE TO THE COORDINATING COMMITTEE OF THE

6 Be It Resolved by the House of Representatives of the State of Idaho:
7 WHEREAS, the House of Representatives recognizes that highway transporta-
8 tion is the major mode for movement of people and goods in the western states;
9 WHEREAS, several western states determined that a consortium of states
10 would provide a forum through which the participating jurisdictions could pro-
11 mote sound public policies of highway use, development, safety and taxation,
12 and could serve as a clearinghouse for the collection and dissemination of
13 information concerning present and proposed national, state and local legisla-
14 tion, regulation and taxation affecting highway transportation;
15 WHEREAS, in 1975 Idaho enacted into law and became a participating member
16 in the Multistate Highway Transportation Agreement;
17 WHEREAS, among the purposes of the agreement are adherence to the princi-
18 ple that each participating jurisdiction should have the freedom to develop
19 the vehicle size and weight standards that it determines to be most appropri-
20 ate to its economy and highway system while also promoting uniformity among
21 participating jurisdictions in vehicle size and weight standards and as much
22 as possible, secure uniformity of administration procedures in the enforcement
23 of recommended vehicle size and weight standards;
24 WHEREAS, a significant benefit of participation in the agreement is that
25 representatives from the participating jurisdictions enjoy the advantage of
26 consulting directly with regional departments of transportation as well as
27 private industry regarding major interstate transportation issues.
28 NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED by the members of the House of Representa-
29 tives, assembled in the First Regular Session of the Fifty-sixth Idaho Legis-
30 lature, that we recognize the importance of Idaho's active participation in
31 this agreement and support the continuing appointment of an Idaho representa-
32 tive to the coordinating committee of the Multistate Highway Transportation
33 Agreement.
