A motor carrier who operated in another state under a reciprocal agreement with that state shall include the miles operated under the agreement as miles traveled in this state in calculating mileage under this section.

A motor carrier shall determine its percentage of hazardous materials transportation using either of the following:

For less than truckload shipments, it must divide the weight of all of the motor carrier's hazardous materials shipments transported during the previous year by the total weight of all shipments transported during the same year.

For truckload shipments, it must divide the total number of hazardous materials shipments during the previous year by the total number of all shipments transported during the same year.

A motor carrier shall select the midpoint of the 10% range that most closely approximates the motor carrier's calculation of its hazardous materials transportation business, under either option in subdivision (b).

A motor carrier may use data from its most recent complete fiscal year or the most recent calendar year in calculating the percentage required under this section.
