Staff explained the bill and answered questions.
The Chairman again recognized Josh Powell. (Attachment 2) According to Mr. Powell, this amendment was also proposed by the Kansas Department of Transportation in order to come into compliance with federal law. He said this bill allows an emergency vehicle to operate at a gross weight not to exceed 86,000 pounds.
Mr. Powell stood for questions. There were no other proponents, no opponents and no neutrals so Chairman Proehl closed the Hearing on SB391.
