		<ns0:Title> An act to amend, repeal, and add Section 27565 of the Streets and Highways Code, relating to transportation. </ns0:Title>

		</ns0:GeneralSubject>
		<ns0:DigestText>
			<html:p>Existing law requires the Department of Transportation, in cooperation with the Golden Gate Bridge, Highway and Transportation District and all known entities planning to implement a toll facility, to develop and adopt functional specifications and standards for an automatic vehicle identification system in compliance with specified objectives, and generally requires any automatic vehicle identification system purchased or installed after January 1, 1991, to comply with those specifications and standards. Existing law authorizes operators of toll facilities on federal-aid highways engaged in an interoperability program to provide, regarding a vehicle’s use of the toll facility, only the license plate number, transponder identification number, date and time of the transaction, and identity of the agency operating the toll facility.</html:p>
			<html:p>This bill
			 would instead authorize an operator of a toll facility on federal-aid highways engaged in an interstate interoperability program to provide to an out-of-state toll agency or interstate interoperability tolling hub only the information regarding a vehicle’s use of the toll facility that is license plate data, transponder data, or transaction data,
			 and that is listed as “required” by specified national interoperability specifications. If the operator needs to collect other types of information to implement interstate interoperability, the bill would prohibit the operator from selling or otherwise providing that information to any other person or entity, as specified. If the operator transmits those other types of information to an out-of-state toll agency or any interstate interoperability tolling hub, the bill would subject the operator to an action by the affected person for no less than $2,500 per violation, as specified. The bill would require a transportation agency that participates in interstate interoperability to post those national interoperability specifications data types on their internet website. The bill would repeal these provisions relating
			 to an interstate interoperability program.</html:p>

								(a)
								<html:span class="EnSpace"/>
								The department, in cooperation with the district and all known entities planning to implement a toll facility in this state, shall develop and adopt functional specifications and standards for an automatic vehicle identification system, in compliance with all of the following objectives:
							</html:p>
							<html:p>
								(1)
								<html:span class="EnSpace"/>
								In order to be detected, a driver shall not be required to reduce speed below the applicable speed for the type of facility being used.
							</html:p>
							<html:p>
								(2)
								<html:span class="EnSpace"/>
								A vehicle owner shall not be required to purchase or install more than one device to use on all toll facilities, but may be required to have a separate account or financial arrangement for the
						use of these facilities.
							</html:p>
							<html:p>
								(3)
								<html:span class="EnSpace"/>
								A facility operator shall have the ability to select from different manufacturers and vendors. The specifications and standards shall encourage multiple bidders, and shall not have the effect of limiting a facility operator to choosing a system that is able to be supplied by only one manufacturer or vendor.
							</html:p>
							<html:p>
								(b)
								<html:span class="EnSpace"/>
								Except as provided in subdivision (c), an automatic vehicle identification system purchased or installed after January 1, 1991, shall comply with the specifications and standards adopted pursuant to subdivision (a).
							</html:p>
							<html:p>
								(c)
								<html:span class="EnSpace"/>
								Subdivision (b) does not apply to an interim automatic vehicle identification system for which a contract is entered into between an entity planning to implement a toll
						facility and the supplier of the interim system before January 1, 1994, if both of the following requirements are met:
							</html:p>
							<html:p>
								(1)
								<html:span class="EnSpace"/>
								The department has made a written determination that the installation and operation of the interim system will expedite the completion of the toll facility and its opening to public use.
							</html:p>
							<html:p>
								(2)
								<html:span class="EnSpace"/>
								The entity planning to implement the toll facility has entered into an agreement with the department to install, within five years after any portion of the toll facility is opened for public use, an automatic vehicle identification system meeting the specifications and standards adopted pursuant to subdivision (a).
							</html:p>
							<html:p>
								(d)
								<html:span class="EnSpace"/>
								The automated vehicle identification system developed by the department pursuant to subdivision (a)

								<html:span class="EnSpace"/>
								(1)
								<html:span class="EnSpace"/>
								On and after the date specified in the federal Moving Ahead for Progress in the 21st Century Act (Public Law 112-141) for implementation of interoperability of electronic toll collection on federal-aid highways, operators of toll facilities on federal-aid highways may fully implement technologies or business practices that provide for the interoperability of electronic toll collection programs consistent with federal law.

								(A)
								<html:span class="EnSpace"/>
								Subject to subparagraphs (B), (C), and (D), an operator of a toll facility on federal-aid highways engaged in an interstate interoperability program may provide to an out-of-state toll agency or interstate interoperability tolling hub only the following information regarding a vehicle’s use of the toll facility:

							<html:p>
								(i)
								<html:span class="EnSpace"/>
								License plate data.

								(I)
								<html:span class="EnSpace"/>
								Acknowledgment data.
							</html:p>
							<html:p>
								(II)

							<html:p>
								(III)
								<html:span class="EnSpace"/>
								Reconciliation data.
							</html:p>
							<html:p>
								(B)
								<html:span class="EnSpace"/>
								The operator of a toll facility on a federal-aid state highway may provide information listed in subparagraph (A) only if it is listed as a “required” field within the National Interoperability Interface Control Document Version 2.0 as it was in effect on July 1, 2025.
							</html:p>
							<html:p>
								(C)
								<html:span class="EnSpace"/>
								Notwithstanding subdivision (h) of Section 31490, to the extent an operator of a toll facility on a federal-aid highway needs to collect information in addition to the information set forth in subparagraph (B) to implement interstate interoperability without transmitting the information, that collection shall be governed by subdivision (a) of Section 31490.
							</html:p>
							<html:p>
								(D)
								<html:span class="EnSpace"/>
								Notwithstanding subdivision (h) of Section 31490, if an operator of a toll facility on a federal-aid highway engaged in an interstate interoperability program provides to an out-of-state
						toll agency or an interstate interoperability tolling hub or collects information beyond what is permitted by this paragraph, the transmission shall be deemed a violation of subdivision (a) of Section 31490.
							</html:p>
							<html:p>
								(3)
								<html:span class="EnSpace"/>
								A transportation agency that participates in interstate interoperability shall post on its internet website the data types required to implement interstate interoperability, as established in the National Interoperability Interface Control Document Version 2.0 that is published by the National Interoperability Committee.
