When a local entity chooses to evaluate whether to allow vehicles weighing up to 129,000 pounds on a particular route, the authority of when and how this decision is made is left up to that local jurisdiction. This proposal makes a one-word change that clarifies the local control to highway jurisdictions by neither prohibiting nor requiring multiple feasibility studies.
