When a rejected weighing or measuring device has been reconditioned or replaced by new
equipment, it must be retested and certified before being put into use except as otherwise
provided by rule. The fee for retest and certification is the same as for the first test and
certification.
When a test of a weighing or measuring device is required in addition to the regularly
scheduled test, the commission shall charge a fee equal to the cost of operating the motor
vehicle used in conducting the test. The mileage charges, as determined by the commission,
must be in addition to the regular test fee and calculated to cover the costs of the additional
travel. If a test has been requested and the person requesting it fails to appear or to have the
weighing or measuring device ready for testing at the arranged time, there is a charge of ten
dollars a quarter hour for the time between the arranged time and the time at which the test can
begin.
