(a) Except for a sign that is permitted under 17 AAC 10, this chapter, or 17 AAC 60, or a sign painted on a vehicle evidencing its ownership, outdoor advertising, including a sign mounted or resting on a vehicle, may not be placed in the highway right-of-way on the state highway system. Without notice to the owner of the outdoor advertising, the department may remove outdoor advertising placed within the highway right-of-way.
(b) The owner of a sign, display, or device removed from a highway right-of-way under this section shall pay the department a removal cost of a minimum of $50 per sign, display, or device or the actual cost of removing the sign, display, or device if the documented costs of removing it are more than $65. For purposes of this section, the actual cost of removal includes the cost of labor, equipment, tools and supplies, and vehicles used for removal. The cost of labor is $50 per hour. The cost of tools and supplies, if used, is $15 per sign, display, or device. The hourly cost of equipment and vehicles is the actual cost, not to exceed the applicable amount set out in the Rental Rate Blue Book for Construction Equipment, Vol. 1, adopted by reference in 17 AAC 20.950.
(c) Within 30 days after removal, if an owner of a sign, display, or device removed from a highway right-of-way under this section pays the actual cost of removal as determined under (b) of this section, the owner may recover the sign, display, or device. If the owner does not pay the actual cost of removal and recover the sign, display, or device within 30 days after the removal, the department may dispose of the sign, display, or device and initiate civil court proceedings against the owner for the actual cost of removal.
