!!! ALL STOP, 1411.7 ALL STOP !!!
NCFMA, News, Regulations, SCFMA!!! ALL STOP, 1411.7 ALL STOP !!!
Following assurances by all concerned at CalTrans that the CCR 1411.7 was a done deal and became law on Dec. 3 at 5:00 PM, we received a call today from James Anderson of CalTrans that stated the law change has been tabled by the CA Division of Administrative Law who does not like some the wording. Apparently, he bulk of the content is fine.
UNTIL FURTHER NOTICE, ALL MESSAGES PERTAINING TO CHANGES ARE NULL AND VOID. CONTINUE TO RUN UNDER THE EXISTING RULE.
Egg on our face, to be sure. Frustration? Beyond your comprehension. This will be fixed and has a mandated maximum 120 day window. If your exemption is about to expire, renew it.
From all of us working on this issue, our sincere apologies for the premature announcement that we had a successful result. Please get on the phone and spread the word to anyone not on the automatic email system.
