RULES AND REGULATIONS

Title 67--TRANSPORTATION

DEPARTMENT OF TRANSPORTATION

[67 PA. CODE CH. 211]

Corrective Amendment to 67 Pa. Code §§ 211.253 and 211.256

[26 Pa.B. 5716]

   The Department of Transportation has discovered a discrepancy between the agency text of 67 Pa. Code §§ 211.253 and 211.256 (relating to no stopping on pavement sign, R8-5; and no stopping on bridge sign, R8-20) as deposited with the Legislative Reference Bureau and as published at 5 Pa.B. 749 (April 12, 1975) and the official text as published in the Pennsylvania Code Reporter (Master Transmittal Sheet No. 1), and is currently appearing in the Pennsylvania Code. Subsection (b) (relating to placement) was never codified in either section.

   Therefore, under 45 Pa.C.S. § 901: The Department of Transportation has deposited with the Legislative Reference Bureau a corrective amendment to 67 Pa. Code §§ 211.253 and 211.256. The corrective amendment to 67 Pa. Code §§ 211.253 and 211.256 is effective as of May 16, 1981, the date the defective official text was announced in the Pennsylvania Bulletin.

   The correct version of 67 Pa. Code §§ 211.253 and 211.256 appears in Annex A, with ellipses referring to the existing text of the regulations.
