A. In addition to the duties set forth in § 33.1-12 of the Code of Virginia, the Commonwealth Transportation Board, by regulation, shall establish reasonable fees to be collected by the Commonwealth Transportation Commissioner from any qualified entity for the purpose of participating in the Integrated Directional Sign Program (IDSP) administered by the Department of Transportation or its agents that is designed to provide information to the motoring public relating to gasoline and motor vehicle services, food, lodging, attractions or other categories as defined by the IDSP.

B. Regulations adopted pursuant to subsection A shall provide that fees charged for signs installed or contracted for on or after July 1, 2011, providing directions to single attractions from more than one Interstate Highway System component shall be based on the number of access ramps at which the signs are placed, and not on the number of sign boards.
