Committee Update Monthly Teleconferences Teleconferences are held on the second Thursday of each month. The minutes for the conference calls can be viewed on the IFTA Inc. website. Current Projects Roadside Enforcement Bar Coding of IFTA decals/licenses Electronic Filing

Roadside Enforcement Project The Roadside Enforcement project was developed to make revoked carrier information available to Law Enforcement personnel during roadside stops. The ‘Revoked Carrier’ database is now available for use. Options available IFTA Inc. Clearinghouse Roadside Enforcement website Access via NLETS (National Law Enforcement Telecommunication System)

Roadside Enforcement Project IFTA Inc Roadside Enforcement Project IFTA Inc. Clearinghouse Roadside Enforcement website To access* the IFTA Inc. Clearinghouse Roadside Enforcement website: 1. Notify IFTA Inc. staff with the IP address your staff would use to access this website. 2. Request that the IFTA Commissioner in your Jurisdiction registers Law Enforcement personnel at www.iftach.org and chooses the Law Enforcement option. *Must be an IFTA Inc. Clearinghouse member to access this website.

Roadside Enforcement Project Access via NLETS To access the Revoked Carrier data via NLETS: 1. Contact the staff within your jurisdiction who are responsible for maintaining/updating the NLETS interface that is viewed by Law Enforcement staff on the roadside. Any questions, contact Jason DeGraf, IFTA Inc. for further information.

Bar Coding Project The Committee is reviewing California’s use of Bar Coding on IFTA decals with the intent of making recommendations for a Best Practices document for use of Bar codes on IFTA decals* and licenses. *Approval must be granted by the IFTA Inc. Board to make any changes/additions to your Jurisdiction’s IFTA decals.

Electronic Filing Project A subset of this project is being revisited at the request of Industry members on the committee. Industry would like to provide a file of return data to IFTA member jurisdictions rather than printing and mailing paper returns or accessing an IFTA member Jurisdiction’s e-File program to enter return data.

Electronic Filing Project - continued The committee has approached the IFTA RPC (Regional Processing Center) to discuss creating a proprietary RPC file format of taxpayer return data. Benefits to IFTA member jurisdiction: Reduce the number of returns to data capture - which would allow staff to work on other tasks, or - reduce the amount you pay to have returns data captured Eliminate data capture errors Returns should post more quickly to your legacy system

WANTED Staff from IFTA member jurisdictions to serve on this committee. Please see Scott Bryer or Andrew Foster
