By June 30, 2013, the department shall report to the transportation committees of the legislature on whether private transportation provider use of high occupancy vehicle lanes under the pilot program reduces the speeds of high occupancy vehicle lanes. Nothing in this subsection is intended to authorize the conversion of public infrastructure to private, for-profit purposes or to otherwise create an entitlement or other claim by private users to public infrastructure. If chapter ... (Substitute Senate Bill No. 5836), Laws of 2011 is enacted by June 30, 2011, this subsection is null and void.
     (4) $9,000,000 of the motor vehicle account--state appropriation is provided solely for the department's incident response program.
     (5) The department, in consultation with the Washington state patrol, must continue a pilot program for the patrol to issue infractions based on information from automated traffic safety cameras in roadway construction zones on state highways. The department must report to the joint transportation committee by January 1, 2012, and January 1, 2013, on the status of this pilot program. For the purpose of this pilot program, during the 2011-2013 fiscal biennium, a roadway construction zone includes areas where public employees or private contractors may be present or where a driving condition exists that would make it unsafe to drive at higher speeds, such as, when the department is redirecting or realigning lanes on any public roadway pursuant to ongoing construction. The department shall use the following guidelines to administer the program:
     (a) Automated traffic safety cameras may only take pictures of the vehicle and vehicle license plate and only while an infraction is occurring. The picture must not reveal the face of the driver or of passengers in the vehicle;
     (b) The department shall plainly mark the locations where the automated traffic safety cameras are used by placing signs on locations that clearly indicate to a driver that he or she is entering a roadway construction zone where traffic laws are enforced by an automated traffic safety camera;
     (c) Notices of infractions must be mailed to the registered owner of a vehicle within fourteen days of the infraction occurring;
     (d) The owner of the vehicle is not responsible for the violation if the owner of the vehicle, within fourteen days of receiving notification of the violation, mails to the patrol, a declaration under penalty of perjury, stating that the vehicle involved was, at the time, stolen or in the care, custody, or control of some person other than the registered owner, or any other extenuating circumstances;
     (e) For purposes of the 2011-2013 fiscal biennium pilot program, infractions detected through the use of automated traffic safety cameras are not part of the registered owner's driving record under RCW 46.52.101 and 46.52.120. Additionally, infractions generated by the use of automated traffic safety cameras must be processed in the same manner as parking infractions for the purposes of RCW 3.50.100, 35.20.220, 46.16A.120, and 46.20.270(3). However, the amount of the fine issued under this subsection (5) for an infraction generated through the use of an automated traffic safety camera is one hundred thirty-seven dollars. The court shall remit thirty-two dollars of the fine to the state treasurer for deposit into the state patrol highway account; and
     (f) If a notice of infraction is sent to the registered owner and the registered owner is a rental car business, the infraction must be dismissed against the business if it mails to the patrol, within fourteen days of receiving the notice, a declaration under penalty of perjury of the name and known mailing address of the individual driving or renting the vehicle when the infraction occurred. If the business is unable to determine who was driving or renting the vehicle at the time the infraction occurred, the business must sign a declaration under penalty of perjury to this effect. The declaration must be mailed to the patrol within fourteen days of receiving the notice of traffic infraction. Timely mailing of this declaration to the issuing agency relieves a rental car business of any liability under this section for the notice of infraction. A declaration form suitable for this purpose must be included with each automated traffic infraction notice issued, along with instructions for its completion and use.
     (6) The department shall track the costs associated with active traffic management systems on a corridor basis and report to the transportation committees of the legislature on the cost and benefits of the systems by December 1, 2011.

     (2) Identifies, for each project, the amount of cost savings or increases in funding that have been identified as compared to the 2011 enacted transportation budget.

NEW SECTION.  Sec. 608   STAFFING LEVELS
     (1) As the department of transportation completes delivery of the projects funded by the 2003 and 2005 transportation revenue packages, it is clear that the current staffing levels necessary to deliver these projects are not sustainable into the future. Therefore, the department is directed to quickly move forward to develop and implement new business practices so that a smaller, more nimble state workforce can effectively and efficiently deliver transportation improvement programs as they are approved in the future, in strong partnership with the private sector, while protecting the public's interests and assets.
     (2) To this end, the department of transportation is directed to reduce the size of its engineering and technical workforce to a level sustained by current law revenue levels currently estimated at two thousand FTEs by the end of the 2013-2015 fiscal biennium. The department's current two thousand eight hundred FTE engineering and technical workforce levels for highway construction will be reduced in the 2011-2013 fiscal biennium, with a target of two thousand four hundred FTEs by June 30, 2013, and to a level of two thousand FTEs by June 30, 2015.
     (3) In order to successfully deliver the highway construction program as funded, the department of transportation may continue to contract out engineering and technical services. In addition, the department may continue the incentive program for retirements and employee separations. The department shall report quarterly to the office of financial management and the transportation committees of the legislature on its progress and plans to reduce highway construction workforce levels to two thousand FTEs by June 2015. This report must also be posted on the department's web site.

NEW SECTION.  Sec. 609   VOLUNTARY RETIREMENT, SEPARATION, AND DOWNSHIFTING INCENTIVES
     As a management tool to reduce costs and make more effective use of resources, while improving employee productivity and morale, agencies may implement a voluntary retirement, separation, and/or downshifting incentive program that is cost neutral or results in cost savings over a two-year period following the commencement of the program, provided that such a program is approved by the director of financial management.
     Agencies participating in this authorization may offer voluntary retirement, separation, and/or downshifting incentives and options according to procedures and guidelines established by the office of financial management, in consultation with the department of personnel and the department of retirement systems. The options may include, but are not limited to, financial incentives for: Voluntary separation or retirement, voluntary leave-without-pay, voluntary workweek or work hour reduction, voluntary downward movement, or temporary separation for development purposes. An employee does not have a contractual right to a financial incentive offered pursuant to this section.
     Offers must be reviewed and monitored jointly by the department of personnel and the department of retirement systems. Agencies are required to submit a report by June 30, 2013, to the legislature and the office of financial management on the outcome of their approved incentive program. The report must include information on the details of the program, including resulting service delivery changes, agency efficiencies, the cost of the incentive per participant, the total cost to the state, and the projected or actual net dollar savings over the 2011-2013 fiscal biennium.

NEW SECTION.  Sec. 610   (1) The department of transportation shall provide a report to the joint transportation committee by August 1, 2011, providing recommendations on the department's future business model, staffing scenarios, and methods of program and project delivery. The report must:
     (a) Detail the sustainable staffing level by program to deliver core functions of the department in the context of forecasted resources as of March 2011;
     (b) Analyze the effect new funding scenarios would have on the sustainable staffing levels for core functions and recommend appropriate staffing levels;
     (c) Describe how the department's sustainable staffing levels would be affected by new funding scenarios and any other actions the department would need to deliver the program associated with the new funding; and
     (d) Evaluate alternative program and project delivery methods to improve efficiency and effectiveness and provide recommendations on legislative changes, if necessary, for their implementation.

Sec. 704   RCW 46.63.170 and 2010 c 161 s 1127 are each amended to read as follows:
     (1) The use of automated traffic safety cameras for issuance of notices of infraction is subject to the following requirements:
     (a) The appropriate local legislative authority must first enact an ordinance allowing for their use to detect one or more of the following: Stoplight, railroad crossing, or school speed zone violations. At a minimum, the local ordinance must contain the restrictions described in this section and provisions for public notice and signage. Cities and counties using automated traffic safety cameras before July 24, 2005, are subject to the restrictions described in this section, but are not required to enact an authorizing ordinance.
     (b) Use of automated traffic safety cameras is restricted to two-arterial intersections, railroad crossings, and school speed zones only.
     (c) During the ((~~2009-2011~~)) 2011-2013 fiscal biennium, automated traffic safety cameras may be used to detect speed violations for the purposes of ((~~section 201(2), chapter 470, Laws of 2009~~)) section 201(2) of this act if the local legislative authority first enacts an ordinance authorizing the use of cameras to detect speed violations.
     (d) Automated traffic safety cameras may only take pictures of the vehicle and vehicle license plate and only while an infraction is occurring. The picture must not reveal the face of the driver or of passengers in the vehicle.
     (e) A notice of infraction must be mailed to the registered owner of the vehicle within fourteen days of the violation, or to the renter of a vehicle within fourteen days of establishing the renter's name and address under subsection (3)(a) of this section. The law enforcement officer issuing the notice of infraction shall include with it a certificate or facsimile thereof, based upon inspection of photographs, microphotographs, or electronic images produced by an automated traffic safety camera, stating the facts supporting the notice of infraction. This certificate or facsimile is prima facie evidence of the facts contained in it and is admissible in a proceeding charging a violation under this chapter. The photographs, microphotographs, or electronic images evidencing the violation must be available for inspection and admission into evidence in a proceeding to adjudicate the liability for the infraction. A person receiving a notice of infraction based on evidence detected by an automated traffic safety camera may respond to the notice by mail.
     (f) The registered owner of a vehicle is responsible for an infraction under RCW 46.63.030(1)(e) unless the registered owner overcomes the presumption in RCW 46.63.075, or, in the case of a rental car business, satisfies the conditions under subsection (3) of this section. If appropriate under the circumstances, a renter identified under subsection (3)(a) of this section is responsible for an infraction.
     (g) Notwithstanding any other provision of law, all photographs, microphotographs, or electronic images prepared under this section are for the exclusive use of law enforcement in the discharge of duties under this section and are not open to the public and may not be used in a court in a pending action or proceeding unless the action or proceeding relates to a violation under this section. No photograph, microphotograph, or electronic image may be used for any purpose other than enforcement of violations under this section nor retained longer than necessary to enforce this section.
     (h) All locations where an automated traffic safety camera is used must be clearly marked by placing signs in locations that clearly indicate to a driver that he or she is entering a zone where traffic laws are enforced by an automated traffic safety camera.
     (i) If a county or city has established an authorized automated traffic safety camera program under this section, the compensation paid to the manufacturer or vendor of the equipment used must be based only upon the value of the equipment and services provided or rendered in support of the system, and may not be based upon a portion of the fine or civil penalty imposed or the revenue generated by the equipment.
     (2) Infractions detected through the use of automated traffic safety cameras are not part of the registered owner's driving record under RCW 46.52.101 and 46.52.120. Additionally, infractions generated by the use of automated traffic safety cameras under this section shall be processed in the same manner as parking infractions, including for the purposes of RCW 3.50.100, 35.20.220, 46.16A.120, and 46.20.270(3). However, the amount of the fine issued for an infraction generated through the use of an automated traffic safety camera shall not exceed the amount of a fine issued for other parking infractions within the jurisdiction.
     (3) If the registered owner of the vehicle is a rental car business, the law enforcement agency shall, before a notice of infraction being issued under this section, provide a written notice to the rental car business that a notice of infraction may be issued to the rental car business if the rental car business does not, within eighteen days of receiving the written notice, provide to the issuing agency by return mail:
     (a) A statement under oath stating the name and known mailing address of the individual driving or renting the vehicle when the infraction occurred; or
     (b) A statement under oath that the business is unable to determine who was driving or renting the vehicle at the time the infraction occurred because the vehicle was stolen at the time of the infraction. A statement provided under this subsection must be accompanied by a copy of a filed police report regarding the vehicle theft; or
     (c) In lieu of identifying the vehicle operator, the rental car business may pay the applicable penalty.
     Timely mailing of this statement to the issuing law enforcement agency relieves a rental car business of any liability under this chapter for the notice of infraction.
     (4) Nothing in this section prohibits a law enforcement officer from issuing a notice of traffic infraction to a person in control of a vehicle at the time a violation occurs under RCW 46.63.030(1) (a), (b), or (c).
     (5) For the purposes of this section, "automated traffic safety camera" means a device that uses a vehicle sensor installed to work in conjunction with an intersection traffic control system, a railroad grade crossing control system, or a speed measuring device, and a camera synchronized to automatically record one or more sequenced photographs, microphotographs, or electronic images of the rear of a motor vehicle at the time the vehicle fails to stop when facing a steady red traffic control signal or an activated railroad grade crossing control signal, or exceeds a speed limit in a school speed zone as detected by a speed measuring device. During the ((~~2009-2011~~)) 2011-2013 fiscal biennium, an automated traffic safety camera includes a camera used to detect speed violations for the purposes of ((~~section 201(2), chapter 470, Laws of 2009~~)) section 201(2) of this act.
     (6) During the ((~~2009-2011~~)) 2011-2013 fiscal biennium, this section does not apply to automated traffic safety cameras for the purposes of ((~~section 218(2), chapter 470, Laws of 2009~~)) section 216(5) of this act.

Sec. 705   RCW 46.63.160 and 2010 c 249 s 6 are each amended to read as follows:

     (3) A notice of civil penalty may be issued by the department of transportation when a toll is assessed through use of a photo toll system and the toll is not paid by the toll payment due date, which is eighty days from the date the vehicle uses the toll facility and incurs the toll charge.
     (4) Any registered owner or renter of a vehicle traveling upon a toll facility operated under chapter 47.56 or 47.46 RCW is subject to a civil penalty governed by the administrative procedures set forth in this section when the vehicle incurs a toll charge and the toll is not paid by the toll payment due date, which is eighty days from the date the vehicle uses the toll facility and incurs the toll charge.
     (5) Consistent with chapter 34.05 RCW, the department of transportation shall develop an administrative adjudication process to review appeals of civil penalties issued by the department of transportation for toll nonpayment detected through the use of a photo toll system under this section.
     (6) The use of a photo toll system is subject to the following requirements:
     (a) Photo toll systems may take photographs, digital photographs, microphotographs, videotapes, or other recorded images of the vehicle and vehicle license plate only.
     (b) A notice of civil penalty must include with it a certificate or facsimile thereof, based upon inspection of photographs, microphotographs, videotape, or other recorded images produced by a photo toll system, stating the facts supporting the notice of civil penalty. This certificate or facsimile is prima facie evidence of the facts contained in it and is admissible in a proceeding established under subsection (5) of this section. The photographs, digital photographs, microphotographs, videotape, or other recorded images evidencing the toll nonpayment civil penalty must be available for inspection and admission into evidence in a proceeding to adjudicate the liability for the civil penalty.
     (c) Notwithstanding any other provision of law, all photographs, digital photographs, microphotographs, videotape, other recorded images, or other records identifying a specific instance of travel prepared under this chapter are for the exclusive use of the tolling agency for toll collection and enforcement purposes and are not open to the public and may not be used in a court in a pending action or proceeding unless the action or proceeding relates to a civil penalty under this chapter. No photograph, digital photograph, microphotograph, videotape, other recorded image, or other record identifying a specific instance of travel may be used for any purpose other than toll collection or enforcement of civil penalties under this section. Records identifying a specific instance of travel by a specific person or vehicle must be retained only as required to ensure payment and enforcement of tolls and to comply with state records retention policies.
     (d) All locations where a photo toll system is used must be clearly marked by placing signs in locations that clearly indicate to a driver that he or she is entering a zone where tolls are assessed and enforced by a photo toll system.
     (e) Within existing resources, the department of transportation shall conduct education and outreach efforts at least six months prior to activating an all-electronic photo toll system. Methods of outreach shall include a department presence at community meetings in the vicinity of a toll facility, signage, and information published in local media. Information provided shall include notice of when all electronic photo tolling shall begin and methods of payment. Additionally, the department shall provide quarterly reporting on education and outreach efforts and other data related to the issuance of civil penalties.
     (7) Civil penalties for toll nonpayment detected through the use of photo toll systems must be issued to the registered owner of the vehicle identified by the photo toll system, but are not part of the registered owner's driving record under RCW 46.52.101 and 46.52.120.
     (8) The civil penalty for toll nonpayment detected through the use of a photo toll system is forty dollars plus the photo toll and associated fees.
     (9) Except as provided otherwise in this subsection, all civil penalties, including the photo toll and associated fees, collected under this section must be deposited into the toll facility account of the facility on which the toll was assessed. However, ((~~beginning on July 1, 2011~~)) through June 30, 2013, civil penalties deposited into the Tacoma Narrows toll bridge account created under RCW 47.56.165 that are in excess of amounts necessary to support the toll adjudication process applicable to toll collection on the Tacoma Narrows bridge must first be allocated toward repayment of operating loans and reserve payments provided to the account from the motor vehicle account under section 1005(15), chapter 518, Laws of 2007. Additionally, all civil penalties, resulting from nonpayment of tolls on the state route number 520 corridor, shall be deposited into the state route number 520 civil penalties account created under section 4, chapter 248, Laws of 2010 but only if chapter 248, Laws of 2010 is enacted by June 30, 2010.
     (10) If the registered owner of the vehicle is a rental car business, the department of transportation shall, before a toll bill is issued, provide a written notice to the rental car business that a toll bill may be issued to the rental car business if the rental car business does not, within thirty days of the mailing of the written notice, provide to the issuing agency by return mail:
     (a) A statement under oath stating the name and known mailing address of the individual driving or renting the vehicle when the toll was assessed; or
     (b) A statement under oath that the business is unable to determine who was driving or renting the vehicle at the time the toll was assessed because the vehicle was stolen at the time the toll was assessed. A statement provided under this subsection must be accompanied by a copy of a filed police report regarding the vehicle theft; or
     (c) In lieu of identifying the vehicle operator, the rental car business may pay the applicable toll and fee.
     Timely mailing of this statement to the issuing agency relieves a rental car business of any liability under this section for the payment of the toll.
     (11) Consistent with chapter 34.05 RCW, the department of transportation shall develop rules to implement this section.
     (12) For the purposes of this section, "photo toll system" means the system defined in RCW 47.56.010 and 47.46.020.

Sec. 706   RCW 43.19.642 and 2010 c 247 s 701 are each amended to read as follows:

     (7) The conversion of a single existing high occupancy vehicle lane to a high occupancy toll lane as proposed for SR-167 must be taken as the exception for this pilot project.
     (8) A violation of the lane restrictions applicable to the high occupancy toll lanes established under this section is a traffic infraction.
     (9) Procurement activity associated with this pilot project shall be open and competitive in accordance with chapter 39.29 RCW.

Sec. 710   RCW 47.28.030 and 2010 c 283 s 9 and 2010 c 5 s 11 are each reenacted and amended to read as follows:
     (1)(a) A state highway shall be constructed, altered, repaired, or improved, and improvements located on property acquired for right-of-way purposes may be repaired or renovated pending the use of such right-of-way for highway purposes, by contract or state forces. The work or portions thereof may be done by state forces when the estimated costs thereof are less than fifty thousand dollars and effective July 1, 2005, sixty thousand dollars.
     (b) When delay of performance of such work would jeopardize a state highway or constitute a danger to the traveling public, the work may be done by state forces when the estimated cost thereof is less than eighty thousand dollars and effective July 1, 2005, one hundred thousand dollars.
     (c) When the department of transportation determines to do the work by state forces, it shall enter a statement upon its records to that effect, stating the reasons therefor.
     (d) To enable a larger number of small businesses and veteran, minority, and women contractors to effectively compete for department of transportation contracts, the department may adopt rules providing for bids and award of contracts for the performance of work, or furnishing equipment, materials, supplies, or operating services whenever any work is to be performed and the engineer's estimate indicates the cost of the work would not exceed eighty thousand dollars and effective July 1, 2005, one hundred thousand dollars.
     (2) The rules adopted under this section:
     (a) Shall provide for competitive bids to the extent that competitive sources are available except when delay of performance would jeopardize life or property or inconvenience the traveling public; and
     (b) Need not require the furnishing of a bid deposit nor a performance bond, but if a performance bond is not required then progress payments to the contractor may be required to be made based on submittal of paid invoices to substantiate proof that disbursements have been made to laborers, material suppliers, mechanics, and subcontractors from the previous partial payment; and
     (c) May establish prequalification standards and procedures as an alternative to those set forth in RCW 47.28.070, but the prequalification standards and procedures under RCW 47.28.070 shall always be sufficient.
     (3) The department of transportation shall comply with such goals and rules as may be adopted by the office of minority and women's business enterprises to implement chapter 39.19 RCW with respect to contracts entered into under this chapter. The department may adopt such rules as may be necessary to comply with the rules adopted by the office of minority and women's business enterprises under chapter 39.19 RCW.
     (4)(a) For the period of March 15, 2010, through June 30, ((~~2011~~)) 2013, work for less than one hundred twenty thousand dollars may be performed on ferry vessels and terminals by state forces.
     (b) The department shall hire a disinterested, third party to conduct an independent analysis to identify methods of reducing out-of-service times for vessel maintenance, preservation, and improvement projects. The analysis must include options that consider consolidating work while vessels are at shipyards by having state forces perform services traditionally performed at Eagle Harbor at the shipyard and decreasing the allowable time at shipyards. The analysis must also compare the out-of-service vessel times of performing services by state forces versus contracting out those services which in turn must be used to form a recommendation as to what the threshold of work performed on ferry vessels and terminals by state forces should be. This analysis must be presented to the transportation committees of the senate and house of representatives by December 1, 2010.
     (c) The department shall develop a proposed ferry vessel maintenance, preservation, and improvement program and present it to the transportation committees of the senate and house of representatives by December 1, 2010. The proposed program must:
     (i) Improve the basis for budgeting vessel maintenance, preservation, and improvement costs and for projecting those costs into a sixteen-year financial plan;
     (ii) Limit the amount of planned out-of-service time to the greatest extent possible, including options associated with department staff as well as commercial shipyards; and
     (iii) Be based on the service plan in the capital plan, recognizing that vessel preservation and improvement needs may vary by route.
     (d) In developing the proposed ferry vessel maintenance, preservation, and improvement program, the department shall consider the following, related to reducing vessel out-of-service time:
     (i) The costs compared to benefits of Eagle Harbor repair and maintenance facility operations options to include staffing costs and benefits in terms of reduced out-of-service time;
     (ii) The maintenance requirements for on-vessel staff, including the benefits of a systemwide standard;
     (iii) The costs compared to benefits of staff performing preservation or maintenance work, or both, while the vessel is underway, tied up between sailings, or not deployed;
     (iv) A review of the department's vessel maintenance, preservation, and improvement program contracting process and contractual requirements;
     (v) The costs compared to benefits of allowing for increased costs associated with expedited delivery;
     (vi) A method for comparing the anticipated out-of-service time of proposed projects and other projects planned during the same construction period;
     (vii) Coordination with required United States coast guard dry dockings;
     (viii) A method for comparing how proposed projects relate to the service requirements of the route on which the vessel normally operates; and

     The appropriations in this section are subject to the following conditions and limitations:
     (1) The department shall develop a plan for all current and future surplus property parcels based on the recommendations from the surplus property legislative work group that were presented to the senate transportation committee on February 26, 2009. The plan must include, at a minimum, strategies for maximizing the number of parcels sold, a schedule that optimizes proceeds, a recommended cash discount, a plan to report to the joint transportation committee, a recommendation for regional incentives, and a recommendation for equivalent value exchanges. This plan must accompany the department's 2010 supplemental budget request. If the department determines that all or a portion of real property or an interest in real property that was acquired through condemnation within the previous ten years is no longer necessary for a transportation purpose, the former owner has a right of repurchase as described in this subsection. For the purposes of this subsection, "former owner" means the person or entity from whom the department acquired title. At least ninety days prior to the date on which the property is intended to be sold by the department, the department must mail notice of the planned sale to the former owner of the property at the former owner's last known address or to a forwarding address if that owner has provided the department with a forwarding address. If the former owner of the property's last known address, or forwarding address if a forwarding address has been provided, is no longer the former owner of the property's address, the right of repurchase is extinguished. If the former owner notifies the department within thirty days of the date of the notice that the former owner intends to repurchase the property, the department shall proceed with the sale of the property to the former owner for fair market value and shall not list the property for sale to other owners. If the former owner does not provide timely written notice to the department of the intent to exercise a repurchase right, or if the sale to the former owner is not completed within seven months of the date of notice that the former owner intends to repurchase the property, the right of repurchase is extinguished. By December 1, 2010, the department shall report to the legislative transportation committees on the individuals and entities eligible to receive surplus property provided in RCW 47.12.063 to determine the frequency with which the department transfers property to those individuals and entities and the implications to the department. It is the intent of the legislature that the list of individuals and entities eligible to receive surplus property be periodically evaluated to determine whether the list is appropriate and provides utility to the department.
     (2) The legislature recognizes that the Dryden pit site (WSDOT Inventory Control (IC) No. 2-04-00103) is unused state-owned real property under the jurisdiction of the department of transportation, and that the public would benefit significantly from the complete enjoyment of the natural scenic beauty and recreational opportunities available at the site. Therefore, pursuant to RCW 47.12.080, the legislature declares that transferring the property to the department of fish and wildlife for recreational use and fish and wildlife restoration efforts is consistent with the public interest in order to preserve the area for the use of the public and the betterment of the natural environment. The department of transportation shall work with the department of fish and wildlife, and shall transfer and convey the Dryden pit site to the department of fish and wildlife as is for an adjusted fair market value reflecting site conditions, the proceeds of which must be deposited in the motor vehicle fund. The department of transportation is not responsible for any costs associated with the cleanup or transfer of this property. By July 1, 2010, and annually thereafter until the entire Dryden pit property has been transferred, the department shall submit a status report regarding the transaction to the chairs of the legislative transportation committees.

     The appropriations in this section are subject to the following conditions and limitations:
     (1) $2,400,000 of the motor vehicle account--state appropriation is provided solely for low-cost enhancements. The department shall give priority to low-cost enhancement projects that improve safety or provide congestion relief. The department shall prioritize low-cost enhancement projects on a statewide rather than regional basis. By September 1st of each even-numbered year, the department shall provide a report to the legislature listing all low-cost enhancement projects prioritized on a statewide rather than regional basis completed in the prior year.
     (2) The department, in consultation with the Washington state patrol, may continue a pilot program for the patrol to issue infractions based on information from automated traffic safety cameras in roadway construction zones on state highways. For the purpose of this pilot program, during the 2009-11 fiscal biennium, a roadway construction zone includes areas where public employees or private contractors are not present but where a driving condition exists that would make it unsafe to drive at higher speeds, such as, when the department is redirecting or realigning lanes on any public roadway pursuant to ongoing construction. The department shall use the following guidelines to administer the program:
     (a) Automated traffic safety cameras may only take pictures of the vehicle and vehicle license plate and only while an infraction is occurring. The picture must not reveal the face of the driver or of passengers in the vehicle;
     (b) The department shall plainly mark the locations where the automated traffic safety cameras are used by placing signs on locations that clearly indicate to a driver that he or she is entering a roadway construction zone where traffic laws are enforced by an automated traffic safety camera;
     (c) Notices of infractions must be mailed to the registered owner of a vehicle within fourteen days of the infraction occurring;
     (d) The owner of the vehicle is not responsible for the violation if the owner of the vehicle, within fourteen days of receiving notification of the violation, mails to the patrol, a declaration under penalty of perjury, stating that the vehicle involved was, at the time, stolen or in the care, custody, or control of some person other than the registered owner, or any other extenuating circumstances;
     (e) For purposes of the 2009-11 fiscal biennium pilot program, infractions detected through the use of automated traffic safety cameras are not part of the registered owner's driving record under RCW 46.52.101 and 46.52.120. Additionally, infractions generated by the use of automated traffic safety cameras must be processed in the same manner as parking infractions for the purposes of RCW 3.50.100, 35.20.220, 46.16.216, and 46.20.270(3). However, the amount of the fine issued under this subsection (2) for an infraction generated through the use of an automated traffic safety camera is one hundred thirty-seven dollars. The court shall remit thirty-two dollars of the fine to the state treasurer for deposit into the state patrol highway account; and
     (f) If a notice of infraction is sent to the registered owner and the registered owner is a rental car business, the infraction must be dismissed against the business if it mails to the patrol, within fourteen days of receiving the notice, a declaration under penalty of perjury of the name and known mailing address of the individual driving or renting the vehicle when the infraction occurred. If the business is unable to determine who was driving or renting the vehicle at the time the infraction occurred, the business must sign a declaration under penalty of perjury to this effect. The declaration must be mailed to the patrol within fourteen days of receiving the notice of traffic infraction. Timely mailing of this declaration to the issuing agency relieves a rental car business of any liability under this section for the notice of infraction. A declaration form suitable for this purpose must be included with each automated traffic infraction notice issued, along with instructions for its completion and use.
     (3) The department shall implement a pilot project to evaluate the benefits of using electronic traffic flagging devices. Electronic traffic flagging devices must be tested by the department at multiple sites and reviewed for efficiency and safety. The department shall report to the transportation committees of the legislature on the best use and practices involving electronic traffic flagging devices, including recommendations for future use, by June 30, 2010.
     (4) $173,000 of the motor vehicle account--state appropriation is provided solely for the department to continue a pilot tow truck incentive program and to expand the program to other areas of the state. The department may provide incentive payments to towing companies that meet clearance goals on accidents that involve heavy trucks. The department shall report to the office of financial management and the transportation committees of the legislature on the effectiveness of the clearance goals and submit recommendations to improve the pilot program with the department's 2010 supplemental omnibus transportation appropriations act submittal. The tow truck incentive program may continue to provide incentives for quick clearance of traffic incidents involving large vehicles. The department shall make recommendations as part of its biennial budget proposal for expanding the use of the incentive program.
     (5) $92,000 of the motor vehicle account--state appropriation is provided solely for operating a new active traffic management system on Interstate 5, Interstate 90, and SR 520. The department shall track the costs associated with these systems on a corridor basis and report to the legislative transportation committees on the cost and benefits of the system.
     (6) To the extent practicable, the department shall synchronize traffic lights on state route number 161 in the vicinity of Puyallup.
     (7) During the 2009-11 biennium, the department shall implement a pilot program that expands private transportation providers' access to high occupancy vehicle lanes. Under the pilot program, when the department reserves a portion of a highway based on the number of passengers in a vehicle, the following vehicles must be authorized to use the reserved portion of the highway if the vehicle has the capacity to carry eight or more passengers, regardless of the number of passengers in the vehicle: (a) Auto transportation company vehicles regulated under chapter 81.68 RCW; (b) passenger charter carrier vehicles regulated under chapter 81.70 RCW, except marked or unmarked stretch limousines and stretch sport utility vehicles as defined under department rules; (c) private nonprofit transportation provider vehicles regulated under chapter 81.66 RCW; and (d) private employer transportation service vehicles. For purposes of this subsection, "private employer transportation service" means regularly scheduled, fixed-route transportation service that is offered by an employer for the benefit of its employees. By June 30, 2011, the department shall report to the transportation committees of the legislature on whether private transportation provider use of high occupancy vehicle lanes under the pilot program reduces the speeds of high occupancy vehicle lanes. Nothing in this subsection is intended to authorize the conversion of public infrastructure to private, for-profit purposes or to otherwise create an entitlement or other claim by private users to public infrastructure.
