Committee approves repeal of duplicate off-highway-vehicle noise testing rules
Summary
The committee approved repeal of an Idaho Parks and Recreation chapter governing test procedures and instruments for OHV noise abatement, removing redundancy with statute and consolidating testing standards.
Seth Hobbs, rules review officer for the Department of Parks and Recreation, presented docket 26-0137-2401, a pending rule to repeal the chapter governing test procedures and instruments for off-highway-vehicle (OHV) noise abatement.
Hobbs said the Society of Automotive Engineers testing standards are already referenced in Idaho Code 67-7125 and that repealing the chapter would remove redundancy and provide law enforcement with a single instruction source. He said negotiated rulemaking was conducted, the notice was published in the Idaho Administrative Bulletin and no opposition was recorded during hearings. Senator Harris moved approval; Senator Cook seconded and the committee approved the repeal by voice vote.
