SB 286 Commercial vehicle safety inspections at landfills.
Introduced by: Leslie L. Byrne | all patrons ... notes | add to my profiles
SUMMARY AS INTRODUCED:
Motor vehicle safety inspections at landfills. Makes the presence of a State Police-approved motor vehicle safety inspection station a prerequisite for issuance of any permit for the operation of any sanitary landfill. All commercial vehicles must pass an inspection at these stations prior to entering the landfill, regardless of when they were last inspected. Inspectors are charged with giving tickets to drivers of vehicles found to be in violation of any portion of Title 46.2 (Motor Vehicles) relating to defective, inadequate, improper, or missing equipment. Landfill permit holders are held responsible for use of the landfill by commercial vehicles that either have not been inspected or have failed the inspection. Each such violation constitutes a separate offense, punishable as provided for in § 10.1-1455 (civil penalty up to $25,000).
