1 Colo. Code Regs. § 204-10-4

Current through Register Vol. 47, No. 22, November 25, 2024
Rule 1 CCR 204-10-4 - GROSS VEHICLE WEIGHT REGISTRATIONS

Basis: The statutory bases for this rule are sections 42-1-102(17), 42-1-102 (23.5), 42-1-102 (109), 42-1-201, 42-1-204, and 42-3-306(5) C.R.S.

Purpose: The purpose of this rule is to establish the information to be maintained for vehicles subject to gross vehicle weight registration fees and to clarify the standards for calculating registration fees.

1.0Definitions
1.1 "GVW Vehicle" means a truck or truck tractor subject to annual registration fees based on declared gross vehicle weight pursuant to section 42-3-306(5)(b), C.R.S.
1.2 "Mileage History" means those miles traveled by a GVW vehicle during the Registration Period Mileage Cycle.
1.3 "Registration Period Mileage Cycle" means the twelve-month period immediately preceding the expiration date of a GVW vehicle registration.
2.0Registration Fee Calculation
2.1 GVW Vehicle Used in the Operations of a Common or Contract Carrier for Hire. For purposes of this rule, a GVW Vehicle is deemed to be used in the operations of a common or contract carrier for hire if the vehicle transported any cargo not owned by the carrier for fifty percent or more of the total miles traveled by that vehicle within the Registration Period Mileage Cycle pursuant to 42-3-306(5)(b)(II), C.R.S.
a. Whether a GVW Vehicle is used in the operations of a common or contract carrier for hire may be established by submitting documentation at the time of registration proving ownership of all cargo carried for the miles traveled by that vehicle within the previous Registration Period Mileage Cycle. Documentation may be bills of sale, manufacturing documentation, or other documents deemed acceptable by the Department.
b. A GVW Vehicle registered for the first time that does not have documentation proving carrier type or mileage history will be registered as a common or contract carrier for hire travelling ten thousand miles or more. Upon registration renewal, if it is demonstrated that the GVW Vehicle is not a common or contract carrier and/or travelled less than ten thousand miles during the Registration Period Mileage Cycle, the registrant may request that the Department credit the difference between the registration fees paid and the renewal registration fees towards the renewal registration fees. If not renewing registration, a refund of the excess registration fee may be requested by submitting a request for refund to the Department on form DR 2444 Statement of Fact with supporting documentation.
2.2 Replacing a GVW Vehicle. A GVW Vehicle owner who is replacing an existing GVW Vehicle may use the Mileage History of the GVW Vehicle being replaced as qualification for the registration fees assessed on the new GVW Vehicle. For the Mileage History to qualify, the existing GVW Vehicle must have been registered and in operation for a full Registration Period Mileage Cycle.
3.0Recordkeeping Requirements
3.1 Documentation of Mileage History. Documentation for both interstate and intrastate travel must be maintained and must contain the following information:
a. Beginning and ending date of each trip;
b. Trip origin and destination;
c. Route of travel;
d. Beginning and ending odometer or hub odometer reading of the trip;
e. Total mileage;
f. Mileage by jurisdiction;
g. Vehicle Identification Number;
h. GVW Vehicle owner's name;
i. Driver's printed name and signature; and
j. A copy of the vehicle registration receipt indicating taxes paid for the requested Registration Period Mileage Cycle
