FISCAL ANALYSIS
ASSUMPTION
Officials from the Department of Revenue and the Office of Administration - Administrative Hearing Commission state this proposal will have no fiscal impact on their respective agencies.
Officials from the Office of Secretary of State (SOS) assume many bills considered by the General Assembly include provisions allowing or requiring agencies to submit rules and regulations to implement the act. The SOS is provided with core funding to handle a certain amount of normal activity resulting from each year’s legislative session. The fiscal impact to the SOS office for Administrative Rules for this proposal is less than $2,500. The SOS recognizes this is a small amount and does not expect additional funding would be required to meet these costs. However, SOS also recognizes that many such bills may be passed in a given year and that collectively the costs may be in excess of what the SOS can sustain with their core budget. Any additional required funding would be handled through the budget process.
Officials at the Missouri Department of Transportation (MoDOT) assume the Unified Carrier Registration (UCR) Agreement was established in the federal UCR Act of 2005, as part of the Safe, Accountable, Flexible, and Efficient Transportation Equity Act: A Legacy for Users (Public Law 109-59, August 10, 2005). The UCR Act repeals and replaces the federal Single State Registration System, the current system under which the states operate.
Passage of this proposal will allow MoDOT to continue to collect an estimated $2,342,000 in registration fees. If this legislation does not pass, Missouri forfeits the registration fees to another state who does participate in UCR. MoDOT assumes no fiscal impact as long as this legislation passes. If not, MoDOT will have a $2,342,000 loss in registration fees annually.
Oversight assumes that the state will comply with federal law and not lose the annual
registration fee revenues.
In response to similar proposed legislation from this session (SCS/SB 760 FN 3493-03), officials from the Office of State Treasurer state this proposal will have no fiscal impact on their agency.
