Gov. Kim Reynolds signed an extension yesterday (Tuesday) to the state’s 2022 harvest proclamation through Dec. 22. The order, which has been in effect since Sept. 1, allows vehicles transporting corn, soybeans, hay, straw, silage, stover, fertilizer, and manure to be overweight without a permit so long as they do not exceed 90,000 pounds gross weight, the maximum axle weight limit determined under the non-primary highway maximum gross weight table by more than 12.5 percent, the legal maximum axle weight limit of 20,000, and comply with all posted limits on roads and bridges. The proclamation applies to all Iowa highways, but it excludes the interstate system. A copy of the updated order can be found included below.
