Be it enacted by the People of the State of Maine as follows:
Sec. 1. PL 2005, c. 426, §6  is repealed.
Sec. 6.
 
SUMMARY
Public Law 2005, chapter 426 amended the calculation of tandem axle weight fines for 6-axle trucks hauling special commodities to clarify that the lower of the fines specified in statute applies. It also amended the axle weight fine schedules to eliminate relatively steep fine increases for smaller violations for trucks hauling forest products. It also eliminated axle weight fine violations during the months of January and February on most state roads. The changes made by the public law are scheduled to sunset September 15, 2007. This bill repeals the sunset.
