Fiscal Detail and Notes
This legislation would allow the Maine Turnpike Authority to send notices of failure to pay tolls to the owner of the vehicle and the Secretary of State by first class mail rather than certified mail.  This change is estimated to save the Authority approximately $50,000 annually.  Removing the prohibition against assessing a $20 administrative fee for a violation by a tractor-trailer combination will increase Authority revenues by minor amounts.
