SB2270

Mississippi SB2270 would remove the repeal of weight limits for vehicles with harvest permits.

Mississippi SB2270 would delete the repealer on provisions establishing maximum weight and approved routes for vehicles with harvest permits. It would allow vehicles with harvest permits a gross vehicle weight tolerance of ten percent, not to exceed eighty-eight thousand pounds. The bill also requires permit holders to notify local authorities of their intended routes and receive approval. Vehicles without a harvest permit would be allowed a tolerance not to exceed five percent above their authorized gross vehicle weight, with a maximum weight of eighty thousand pounds.
