ASSUMPTION
Officials from the Missouri State Highway Patrol assume the proposed legislation would have no fiscal impact on their agency.
Officials from the Department of Revenue assume the proposed legislation would have minimal administrative impact on their agency.
Officials from the Department of Transportation (MoDOT) assume there will be little to no fiscal impact on the department as a result of this legislation at this time.
Officials with the Department of Natural Resources (DNR) noted that switching to biennial emissions testing reduces state revenue from Franklin County by fifty percent. Although the maximum allowable fee for inspection stations could collect would increase, the $.75 collected per inspection would stay the same. DNR estimates 44,000 annual paid inspections based on an estimate from the contractor performing the emission inspections. Each paid test results in $0.75 in state revenue. The revenue loss would begin in FY 04.
Oversight assumes that the effective date of this proposal is August 28, 2003. Therefore, Oversight prorated the loss of revenue to the indicated funds at ten months in FY 04.

FISCAL IMPACT - Small Business
Small businesses could be affected by the provisions in this proposal. An industry which requires vehicle maintenance could be affected by the higher biennial rate. An industry which conducts inspections could be allowed to collect a higher amount per inspection.
DESCRIPTION
This proposal could make the BAR-97 test in Franklin County a biennial test and increase the maximum allowable testing fee for the independent stations from $10.50 to $24.
This legislation is not federally mandated, would not duplicate any other program and would not require additional capital improvements or rental space
