This is a trailer appropriation to SCR116 that authorizes the Legislative Council to appoint an interim committee to complete a study on whether to impose an annual registration fee on all commercial vehicles and farm equipment exceeding 60,000 pounds, and whether to impose a quarterly operating fee based on weight class for all miles driven on Idaho roadways.
