Staff Analysis of the Legislation

Local governments that have different white lining, marking or other utility locate procedures than the state Department of Transportation or Public Service Commission cannot impose fines on those failing to follow the local procedures.  The bill also extends, from 21 to 30 days, the time by which blasting or excavating must commence after providing notice.
