We celebrate our life today with praise to You our Creator for the blessings You have given. For the strength and wisdom as available as we ask You and believe You will give us.

We ask that as this Session comes near the end that these final days bring cohesion among all the members, even in differences, to make the last decisions for the common good of all residents of the state of Missouri.

Today we ask for not only a blessing upon this House but the Senate, our Governor, Matt Blunt and his family, and all the elected leaders of this state, our President, George Bush, our Vice-President, Dick Cheney, and all our national leaders.

Our hearts are heavy as we hear the news of our soldiers fighting for our freedom giving their lives. Be with

our brave men and women today. Put a shield of protection around them like You did the armies of Hezekiah in II Chronicles. Give comfort to those who have lost family members in the battles for our freedom. We thank You for the safe return of our own Missouri Representative Jim Avery.

At home, we ask for Your comfort today for those who have loved ones in the bus accident yesterday, here in our state and the children traumatized who attended school with them.

Finally, we ask Your anointed blessings upon this Session today as we give You thanks for all You have done.

(22) "Work", construction and services required of the contractor by the contractor's contract with the commission, including excavation as that term is defined in section 319.015, RSMo.

227.243. 1. At the earliest possible date in the design of a construction project on a state highway, the commission shall attempt to determine what utility facilities are located within the right-of-way of the planned construction project by researching permit files and reviewing map files maintained by the commission. The commission shall also, as necessary, conduct field investigations and contact local governments to identify any utility facilities within the right-of-way.

2. Within thirty days of completion of the survey conducted under subsection 1 of this section, the commission shall notify in writing owners of each known utility facility that a construction project is planned that may conflict with their utility facility. The notification shall include the name or route number of the highway, the geographical limits of the planned construction protect, a general description of the work to be done including a preliminary plan, the desired date for completion of a relocation plan, and the anticipated month and year a letting date could be set for the construction project.

3. The owner shall examine the notice and notify the commission in writing of any utility facility not correctly described in the commission's notice. Within sixty days of receiving the notice required in subsection 2 of this section, the owner shall provide a written response to the commission. The response shall describe and provide the general location of each utility facility of the owner by confirming the location shown in the commission's notice or by providing additions or corrections.

227.244. 1. Upon completion of the initial design of the construction project, the commission shall provide at least one set of project plans to each owner of a utility facility identified under section 227.243.

2. The project plans shall show those portions of the construction project upon which the owner's utility facilities are located and where the utility facilities of other owners are located in relation to work required for the project. The commission shall also provide with the project plans a description of any right-of-way still to be purchased and the anticipated letting date of the project. The project plan shall be accompanied by a complete set of plans including profile, cross-section, drainage, signal, lighting, signing plans, temporary road plans that may affect utilities, and other pertinent plan sheets. Upon request of the owner, the commission shall provide any additional plan information needed by the owner to design and lay out the removal, relocation, or adjustment of existing facilities and the placement of relocated or new utility facilities within the limits of the construction project.

3. Within thirty days of receipt of the project plans, the utility owner shall develop a preliminary plan of adjustment and return the marked-up project plans to the commission. The plan of adjustment shall include:

4. When two or more owners have facilities in the area encompassed by the construction project, the commission shall schedule a utility coordination meeting as soon as possible but no longer than thirty days from the date the project plans were mailed. The commission's project manager and all owners are required to attend this meeting. If there is a conflict between two owners which cannot be satisfactorily resolved by the owners, the commission shall determine the most appropriate method to resolve the conflict between the two owners, and, in making such determination, shall weigh equally the length of time necessitated by each owner's proposal, and the relative cost to each owner if the other's proposal is adopted. The commission shall notify all utility owners involved with the project in writing of the commission's acceptance or revisions to the utility plan of adjustment.

227.245. 1. Within one hundred twenty days of receiving written notice of approval of the utility plan of adjustment from the commission, the owner shall provide the commission with a relocation plan. The one hundred twenty-day clock stops after the relocation plan is submitted by the owner. If, after timely submission of the relocation plan by the owner, revisions or alterations are necessary for any reason, or if the original relocation plan was incomplete due to information needed from other parties, the one hundred twenty-day clock begins to run again when the needed information is received back by the owner.

2. The relocation plan shall include a narrative description of work that will be done in relocating the owner's utility facilities and whether the work or a portion of the work must be coordinated with or is contingent upon work being performed by another utility facility owner or the contractor to the commission. The relocation plan shall list, if applicable, any anticipated issues or problems related to the acquisition of right-of-way. The relocation plan shall, if applicable, detail the anticipated number of days to acquire additional easements not provided within the new highway right-of-way. The relocation plan shall also give estimates as to the time needed to obtain any necessary customer approvals for cut-over dates, if necessary. The relocation plan shall state when the work will be started and the length of time in days estimated to complete the work. It is permissible for an owner to state in a relocation plan that the owner's work will be completed within a stated number of days from the date that a contractor or another owner completes certain identified work which interferes with the owner's work. The relocation plan shall identify any contingencies, if applicable, that may impact the anticipated start of relocation. The relocation plan shall also describe whether the plan is incomplete due to:

(1) Other owners failing to coordinate their plans with the owner submitting the plan;

(2) Other owners failing to provide information necessary to submit a complete relocation plan;

(3) The commission failing to provide any information required by subsection 2 of section 227.244; or

(4) Any other reason explained in the plan regarding the circumstances and cause of the plan being incomplete.

3. The commission shall review the relocation plan to ensure compatibility with permit requirements, the project plan, and the anticipated letting date and notice to proceed for the project. If utility relocation is dependent upon or must be coordinated with work to be completed by the contractor, the relocation plan shall assure timely completion of the project. If the relocation plan is acceptable to the commission, the commission shall notify the owner in writing within thirty days of receiving the plan. If the relocation plan submitted by the owner is not compatible, reasonable, or does not allow timely completion of the project, the commission shall advise the owner in writing as soon as practicable, but not later than thirty days after receiving the relocation plan. The commission shall specify in the notice which parts of the relocation plan it finds objectionable, and the reasons for its conclusions. The owner shall submit a revised relocation plan within thirty calendar days after receipt of notice by the commission that the relocation plan is not acceptable. The commission shall review the revised relocation plan, and if the relocation plan is still not acceptable, the commission shall provide a relocation plan to the owner. The owner shall not be bound by the terms of the commission's relocation plan if such relocation plan:

(1) Requires the payment of overtime to employees to expedite the construction project; or

(2) Requires the owner to comply with a deadline which is not feasible due, in whole or in part, to one or more factors outside the control of the owner.

4. If the owner informs the commission, in writing, or the commission determines that the owner's relocation work is dependent upon or must be coordinated with work being performed by the commission's contractor, the commission shall convene a meeting of the contractor and the one or more owners whose relocation work is dependent upon or must be coordinated with the contractor's work. Such meeting shall be held after the letting date at which bids were received for the construction project, but prior to the issuance of a notice to proceed to the commission's contractor. After such meeting, and before or concurrent with the issuance of a notice to proceed, the commission shall provide a schedule for the relocation of utilities to the owner and the commission's contractor. If the approved relocation plan, or a portion of such plan, is dependent upon or must be coordinated with work to be performed by the contractor, the contractor shall notify the commission of its best estimate of the date that all construction necessary for the relocation of utilities will be completed, at least fourteen days prior to such date. If such completion date is delayed due to weather or other causes, the contractor shall immediately notify the commission of the delay and the revised expected completion date. The contractor shall give a second notice to the commission five days prior to the date work will be completed as necessary for relocation work to begin. It shall be the responsibility of the commission to notify the owner or owners of the contractor's estimated completion dates. The contractor may also notify the owner directly of such dates, if the contractor has received information from the owner under subsection 7 of this section, but such notice shall not relieve the commission of its obligation to notify the owner. If the contractor's delay causes additional delay by the owner, the commission and the owner shall negotiate in good faith to determine the new completion date.

5. (1) The commission shall notify the owner in writing not less than thirty days before the owner is required to begin relocation provided for in the approved relocation plan. Unless the owner has encountered excusable delay as set forth in subsection 4 of section 227.248, the owner shall complete its work within the time frame described in the relocation plan, and shall complete all work that can be done prior to construction before the issuance of the notice to proceed, including work that may need to be coordinated with other utility owners but is not dependent on the work of the contractor.

(2) The notice required by subdivision (1) of this subsection shall include the name, address, telephone number, facsimile number, and electronic mail address of the commission's contractor and any subcontractors performing work on the construction project. Such information shall also include the name and title of an individual employed by the contractor or subcontractor having primary responsibility for the construction project. Within fifteen days of receiving notice, the owner shall provide to the commission and the commission's contractor the name, address, telephone number, facsimile number, and electronic mail address of the employee of the owner who is responsible for implementation of the owner's relocation plan and the same information for any utility contractor to the owner for purposes of carrying out the relocation plan.

6. The owner shall notify the commission when relocation work has started. During the course of the relocation work, the commission may require owners to provide progress reports until its relocation is completed. The owner shall notify the commission when all relocation work is complete. All notices of either starting or completion of relocation work and all monthly progress reports shall be provided within five days after such dates.

227.246. 1. If, prior to the letting date of the construction project, the commission's project plan is changed so that additional or different utility re1ocation work is found necessary, the commission shall furnish a revised project plan under section 227.244, and the owner shall provide the commission with a revised relocation plan under section 227.245, except that the time allowed for the owner to submit the revised relocation plan after receipt of the revised project plan shall not exceed sixty days.

2. If, after the letting date of the highway construction project, additional utility relocation work is found necessary which was not indicated on the original project plan, the commission shall provide the owner with a revised project plan within fifteen days and the commission and the owner shall agree on a reasonable schedule for completion of the additional utility location.

227.247. 1. The commission shall have authority to require that any required notice, response, or plan be submitted by mail or certified mail. Otherwise notices, plans, and other statements in writing may be provided by mail, facsimile, or electronic mail. The commission may require that some form of proof of receipt be provided in regard to any notice, plan, or other statement in writing. Upon mutual agreement between the commission and an owner, additional time may be granted for the completion of any act required by sections 227.241 to 227.249.

2. Nothing in sections 227.241 to 227.249 shall be construed to relieve a contractor from making notice of excavation as required by sections 319.010 to 319.050, RSMo, of the underground facility safety and damage prevention act, or complying with the requirements of sections 319.075 to 319.090, RSMo, of the overhead powerline safety act, except to the extent that any provisions of sections 227.241 to 227.249 require additional obligations beyond those set forth in sections 319.011 to 319.050, RSMo, or sections 319.075 to 319.090, RSMo, in which case the requirements of sections 227.241 to 227.249 shall prevail.

227.248. 1. If the owner of a utility facility fails to provide the responses or corrections to project plans required by sections 227.243 to 227.246, the commission may recover from the owner damages in the amount of up to one hundred dollars per day for each day the required act is not completed.

2. If the owner fails to provide a relocation plan or fails to timely relocate utility facilities in accordance with the relocation plan as required by section 227.245, the commission may recover from the owner damages in the amount of up to one thousand dollars per day for each day the required act is not completed.

3. The damages authorized by subsections 1 and 2 of this section may be recovered through actions brought by the chief counsel to the commission, or may be referred to the attorney general for appropriate action. An action to collect the damages authorized by this section shall be brought in a court of appropriate jurisdiction. All damages collected under this section shall be deposited in the state road fund.

4. No damages or fines of any kind shall be assessed for delays that result, in whole or in part, directly or indirectly, from any of the following:

(5) Delays caused by staffing shortages in the geographic area near the commission's construction project due to the owner's need to reassign an unusual number of workers to any other area to respond to an act of God or extreme weather event;

(6) The failure of another owner to sufficiently complete its required relocation of utility facilities that interfere with an owner's relocation plan;

(7) The failure of another owner or delay by another owner in submitting relocation plans that interfere with an owner's relocation plan;

(8) Delays by the commission in acquiring necessary right-of-way or necessary easements;

(9) Delays caused by facility damages or cable cuts caused by the commission's contractor, other owners, or third parties;

The occurrence of any of the unusual events listed in this section shall constitute an affirmative defense to the assessment of damages under the provisions of this section.

5. The removal and relocation of utility facilities shall be made at the expense of the owners unless otherwise provided by the commission. If the owner fails to relocate the utility facilities in accordance with the relocation plan as required by section 227.245, the utility facilities may be removed and relocated by the state highways and transportation commission, or under its direction, and the cost of relocating the utility facilities shall be collected from such owner. If the state highways and transportation commission or its designee removes and relocates the utility facilities, the utility owner shall not be liable to any party for any damages caused by the commission's or the commission's designee's removal and relocation of such facilities.

227.249. Any home rule city having a population of sixty thousand inhabitants or greater or any charter county of the first classification may adopt ordinances, policies, resolutions, or regulations consistent with sections 227.241 to 227.249 regarding the relocation of utility facilities located within the right-of-way of streets, highways, or roads under their respective jurisdiction, which are not state highways. Any ordinance, policy, resolution, or regulation adopted under the authority of this section shall not infringe upon, negate or otherwise abrogate an owner's right to construct, own, operate, and maintain utility facilities within the right-of-ways of such political subdivision that the owner otherwise enjoyed prior to the adoption of such ordinance, policy, resolution, or regulation."; and

Further amend said bill by amending the title, enacting clause, and intersectional references accordingly.

476.385. 1. The judges of the supreme court may appoint a committee consisting of at least seven associate circuit judges, who shall meet en banc and establish and maintain a schedule of fines to be paid for violations of sections [210.104,] 577.070[,] and 577.073, RSMo, and chapters 252, 301, 302, 304, 306, 307 and 390, RSMo, with such fines increasing in proportion to the severity of the violation. The associate circuit judges of each county may meet en banc and adopt the schedule of fines and participation in the centralized bureau pursuant to this section. Notice of such adoption and participation shall be given in the manner provided by supreme court rule. Upon order of the supreme court, the associate circuit judges of each county may meet en banc and establish and maintain a schedule of fines to be paid for violations of municipal ordinances for cities, towns and villages electing to have violations of its municipal ordinances heard by associate circuit judges, pursuant to section 479.040, RSMo; and for traffic court divisions established pursuant to section 479.500, RSMo. The schedule of fines adopted for violations of municipal ordinances may be modified from time to time as the associate circuit judges of each county en banc deem advisable. No fine established pursuant to this subsection may exceed the maximum amount specified by statute or ordinance for such violation.

2. In no event shall any schedule of fines adopted pursuant to this section include offenses involving the following:

(1) Any violation resulting in personal injury or property damage to another person;

3. There shall be a centralized bureau to be established by supreme court rule in order to accept pleas of not guilty or guilty and payments of fines and court costs for violations of the laws and ordinances described in subsection 1 of this section, made pursuant to a schedule of fines established pursuant to this section. The centralized bureau shall collect, with any plea of guilty and payment of a fine, all court costs which would have been collected by the court of the jurisdiction from which the violation originated.

4. If a person elects not to contest the alleged violation, the person shall send payment in the amount of the fine and any court costs established for the violation to the centralized bureau. Such payment shall be payable to the "central violations bureau", shall be made by mail or in any other manner established by the centralized bureau, and shall constitute a plea of guilty, waiver of trial and a conviction for purposes of section 302.302, RSMo, and for purposes of imposing any collateral consequence of a criminal conviction provided by law. Notwithstanding any provision of law to the contrary, the prosecutor shall not be required to sign any information, ticket or indictment if disposition is made pursuant to this subsection. In the event that any payment is made pursuant to this section by credit card or similar method, the centralized bureau may charge an additional fee in order to reflect any transaction cost, surcharge or fee imposed on the recipient of the credit card payment by the credit card company.

5. If a person elects to plead not guilty, such person shall send the plea of not guilty to the centralized bureau. The bureau shall send such plea and request for trial to the prosecutor having original jurisdiction over the offense. Any trial shall be conducted at the location designated by the court. The clerk of the court in which the case is to be heard shall notify in writing such person of the date certain for the disposition of such charges. The prosecutor shall not be required to sign any information, ticket or indictment until the commencement of any proceeding by the prosecutor with respect to the notice of violation.

6. In courts adopting a schedule of fines pursuant to this section, any person receiving a notice of violation pursuant to this section shall also receive written notification of the following:

(2) That the person must respond to the notice of violation by paying the prescribed fine and court costs, or pleading not guilty and appearing at trial, and that other legal penalties prescribed by law may attach for failure to appear and dispose of the violation. The supreme court may modify the suggested forms for uniform complaint and summons for use in courts adopting the procedures provided by this section, in order to accommodate such required written notifications.

7. Any moneys received in payment of fines and court costs pursuant to this section shall not be considered to be state funds, but shall be held in trust by the centralized bureau for benefit of those persons or entities entitled to receive such funds pursuant to this subsection. All amounts paid to the centralized bureau shall be maintained by the centralized bureau, invested in the manner required of the state treasurer for state funds by sections 30.240, 30.250, 30.260 and 30.270, RSMo, and disbursed as provided by the constitution and laws of this state. Any interest earned on such fund shall be payable to the director of the department of revenue for deposit into a revolving fund to be established pursuant to this subsection. The state treasurer shall be the custodian of the revolving fund, and shall make disbursements, as allowed by lawful appropriations, only to the judicial branch of state government for goods and services related to the administration of the judicial system.

8. Any person who receives a notice of violation subject to this section who fails to dispose of such violation as provided by this section shall be guilty of failure to appear provided by section 544.665, RSMo; and may be subject to suspension of driving privileges in the manner provided by section 302.341, RSMo. The centralized bureau shall notify the appropriate prosecutor of any person who fails to either pay the prescribed fine and court costs, or plead not guilty and request a trial within the time allotted by this section, for purposes of application of section 544.665, RSMo.

AMEND House Committee Substitute for Senate Substitute for Senate Committee Substitute for Senate Bill Nos. 74 & 49, Section 701.049, Page 11, Line 11, by inserting after all of said line the following:

“Section 1. 1. As used in this section, the term “department” shall mean the Department of Health and Senior Services.

2. Subject to appropriations, the department may provide financial assistance for consumer-directed personal care assistance services through eligible vendors, as provided in sections 660.661 through 660.687, RSMo, to each person who was participating as a non-Medicaid eligible client pursuant to Sections 178.661 through 178.673, RSMo on June 30, 2005 and who:

(2) Demonstrates financial need and eligibility under subsection 3 of this section;

(3) Meets all the criteria set forth in sections 660.661 through 660.687, RSMo, except for section 660.664.1(5);

(4) Has been found by the Department of Social Services not to be eligible to participate under guidelines established by the Medicaid state plan; and

(5) Does not have access to affordable employer-sponsored health care insurance or other affordable health care coverage for personal care assistance services as defined in section 660.661, RSMo. For purposes of this section, “access to affordable employer-sponsored health care insurance or other affordable health care coverage” refers to health insurance requiring a monthly premium less than or equal to one hundred thirty-three percent of the monthly average premium required in the state’s current Missouri consolidated health care plan.

Payments made by the department under the provisions of this section shall be made only after all other available sources of payment have been exhausted.

3. (1) In order to be eligible for financial assistance for consumer-directed personal care assistance services under this section, a person shall demonstrate financial need, which shall be based on the adjusted gross income and the assets of the person seeking financial assistance and such person’s spouse.

(2) In order to demonstrate financial need, a person seeking financial assistance under this section and such person’s spouse must have an adjusted gross income, less disability-related medical expenses, as approved by the department, that is equal to or less than three hundred percent of the federal poverty level. The adjusted gross income shall be based on the most recent income tax return.

(3) No person seeking financial assistance for personal care services under this section and such person’s spouse shall have assets in excess of two-hundred fifty thousand dollars.

4. The department shall require applicants and the applicant’s spouse, and consumers and the consumer’s spouse to provide documentation for income, assets, and disability-related medical expenses for the purpose of determining financial need and eligibility for the program. In addition to the most recent income tax return, such documentation may include, but shall not be limited to:

(a) Current wage stubs for the applicant or consumer and the applicant’s or consumer’s spouse;

(b) A current W-2 form for the applicant or consumer and the applicant’s or consumer’s spouse;

5. A personal care assistance services plan shall be developed by the department pursuant to section 660.667, RSMo for each person who is determined to be eligible and in financial need under the provisions of this section. The plan developed by the department shall include the maximum amount of financial assistance allowed by the department, subject to appropriation, for such services.

6. Each consumer who participates in the program is responsible for a monthly premium equal to the average premium required for the Missouri consolidated health care plan; provided that the total premium described in this section shall not exceed five percent of the consumer’s and the consumer’s spouse’s income for the year involved.

7. (1) Nonpayment of the premium required in subsection 6 shall result in the denial or termination of assistance, unless the person demonstrates good cause for such nonpayment.

(2) No person denied services for nonpayment of a premium shall receive services unless such person shows good cause for non payment and makes payments for past due premiums as well as current premiums.

(3) Any person who is denied services for nonpayment of a premium and who does not make any payments for past due premiums for sixty consecutive days shall have their enrollment in the program terminated.

(4) No person whose enrollment in the program is terminated for nonpayment of a premium when such nonpayment exceeds sixty consecutive days shall be re-enrolled unless such person pays any past due premiums as well as current premiums prior to being re-enrolled. Nonpayment shall include payment with a returned, refused, or dishonored instrument.

8. (1) Consumers determined eligible for personal care assistance services under the provisions of this section shall be reevaluated annually to verify their continued eligibility and financial need. The amount of financial assistance for consumer-directed personal care assistance services received by the consumer shall be adjusted or eliminated based on the outcome of the reevaluation. Any adjustments made shall be recorded in the consumer’s personal care assistance services plan.

(2) In performing the annual reevaluation of financial need, the department shall annually send a re-verification eligibility form letter to the consumer requiring the consumer to respond within ten days of receiving the letter and to provide income and disability-related medical expense verification documentation. If the department does not receive the consumer's response and documentation within the ten-day period, the department shall send a letter notifying the consumer that he or she has ten days to file an appeal or the case will be closed.

(3) The department shall require the consumer and the consumer’s spouse to provide documentation for income and disability-related medical expense verification for purposes of the eligibility review. Such documentation may include, but shall not be limited to the documentation listed in subsection 4 of this section.

9. (1) Applicants for personal care assistance services and consumers receiving such services pursuant to this section are entitled to a hearing with the department of social services if eligibility for personal care assistance services is denied, if the type or amount of services is set at a level less than the consumer believes is necessary, if disputes arise after preparation of the personal care assistance plan concerning the provision of such services, or if services are discontinued as provided in section 660.684, RSMo. Services provided under the provisions of this section shall continue during the appeal process.

(2) A request for such hearing shall be made to the department of social services in writing in the form prescribed by the department of social services within ninety days after the mailing or delivery of the written decision of the department of health and senior services. The procedures for such requests and for the hearings shall be as set forth in section 208.080, RSMo.

10. Unless otherwise provided in this section, all other provisions of sections 660.661 through 660.687, RSMo shall apply to individuals who are eligible for financial assistance for personal care assistance services under this section.

11. The department may promulgate rules and regulations, including emergency rules, to implement the provisions of this section. Any rule or portion of a rule, as that term is defined in section 536.010, RSMo, that is created under the authority delegated in this section shall become effective only if it complies with and is subject to all of the provisions of chapter 536, RSMo, and, if applicable, section 536.028, RSMo. Any provisions of the existing rules regarding the personal care assistance program promulgated by the department of elementary and secondary education in title 5, code of state regulation, division 90, chapter 7, which are inconsistent with the provisions of this section are void and of no force and effect.

Further amend said bill by amending the title, enacting clause, and intersectional references accordingly.
