Agreements with Secretary of Transportation
Official statutory text
The Department on behalf of the state shall seek agreement to
the provisions of Sections 4 and 5 of this act by the Secretary of
Transportation on the basis of their being consistent with federal
laws and customary usages and zoning principles and standards which
hold and govern in this state. In the event such an agreement
cannot be achieved, this legislation shall be returned to the
Oklahoma Statutes - Title 69. Roads, Bridges, and Ferries Page 141
legislative bodies of the State of Oklahoma for remedial action and
resubmission to the Secretary. In the event such a new agreement
cannot be achieved, the Department shall promptly institute
proceedings of the kind provided for in Title 23 U.S.C.A. 131 (1) in
order to obtain a judicial determination as to whether this chapter
and the regulations promulgated thereunder provide effective control
of outdoor advertising as set forth therein. In such action the
Department shall request that the court declared rights, status and
other legal relations and declare whether the standards, criteria
and definitions contained in the agreement proposed by the
Department are consistent with customary use. If such agreement is
held by the court in a final judgment to be invalid in whole or in
part as inconsistent with customary use or is otherwise in conflict
with Title 23 U.S.C.A. 131, the Department shall promptly negotiate
with the Secretary of Transportation, or his successor, a new
agreement or agreements which shall conform to said statute as
interpreted by the court in such action.
