TOPEKA — Kansas Gov. Sam Brownback issued an executive order temporarily suspending certain motor carrier rules and regulations to expedite the delivery of hay to livestock in drought-stricken areas. His executive order only applies to those hauling hay to livestock in drought stricken areas. The order temporarily suspends requirements for registration and fuel tax permits from the Kansas Department of Revenue; and licensing, certification and permitting rules and regulations by the Kansas Corporation Commission. Participating motor carriers are only allowed to haul during daylight hours and must comply with flag, sign and lighting requirements for over-width vehicles. Additionally, participating motor carriers are not allowed to drive during inclement weather conditions. All other state and federal regulations continue to apply, including the requirement for the driver to have a valid driver’s license.
