Section 910. Sign contractors

17 AAC 60.910. Sign contractors

(a) A person may not install, maintain, or remove a tourist sign unless the person is named on the list of sign contractors described in (b) of this section.

(b) The department will maintain a list of sign contractors. The list consists of those persons known to the department to have experience in working in public rights-of-way with active traffic and knowledge of the traffic control requirements necessary for safe operation. The department will add a person to the list if the person, in writing, demonstrates a reasonable basis for the department to conclude that the person has experience in working in public rights-of-way with active traffic and knowledge of the traffic control requirements necessary for safe operation.

(c) The department will notify a person on the list that the department has received information that the person has demonstrated an inability to work safely in public rights-of-way or has failed to substantially comply with the requirements of this chapter. The notice will

(1) specify that the department will remove the person from the list if the department determines that the information received is accurate; and

(2) provide the person with 30 days to respond to the information.

(d) Before installing, maintaining, or removing a tourist sign, a sign contractor shall submit a written request for permission to work in the right-of-way to the department. The request must include a traffic control plan. The department will approve the request if the department determines that the request is consistent with safe operation on the highway and this chapter. In approving the request, the department will, in its discretion, impose other requirements that are necessary to ensure safe operation of the highway.
