Senate Transportation Chairman John McGee, R-Caldwell, had this reaction to the House plan for an interim committee to study transportation funding: "I'm trying to think of an issue over the last two years that has been studied and talked about more than transportation funding. Every single member of the Legislature knows the ins and the outs of transportation funding." As for the package House GOP leaders now are promoting as their "level best" on transportation funding - repeal of the ethanol exemption, increasing DMV fees, and the interim committee - McGee said, "It needs another bow on it." Gov. Butch Otter has made it clear he wants at least $75 million a year in new money for road maintenance, McGee said. "This doesn't scratch the surface."
