The House Transportation Committee reviewed five administrative regulations affecting the Transportation Cabinet and the Kentucky State Police and entered that review into the record.

John Johnson, assistant general counsel for the Transportation Cabinet, told the committee the rules included 601 KAR 23:50, which would let the cabinet use technological tools to examine certificates of title rather than relying solely on manual review. Johnson described an off-road-vehicle pilot-program extension to July 2027 and an amendment to the definition of "local government." He said a weight/mass regulation was revised to match statutory language and that a regulation adopting references in the Manual on Uniform Traffic Control Devices (MUTCD) was on the agenda.

Nathan Goins, assistant general counsel in the Justice and Public Safety Cabinet, and a Kentucky State Police staff member discussed an emergency regulation, 502KR10120E, that implemented a federal change in the TSA fee tied to hazardous-material endorsement threat-security assessments. Goins said the federal guidance arrived late in the federal rulemaking timeline, requiring an emergency regulation to ensure state rules matched the federal fee change.

Representative Smith asked whether the title-examination regulation covered rebuilt titles. Johnson replied his understanding was that it "includes all titles." The committee recorded its review of the regulations and closed the agenda items.
