An agreement, arrangement, declaration or amendment thereto is not effective until executed and filed with the Department of Transportation.
(b) An agreement may provide for determining the base state for users, users records requirements, audit procedures, exchange of information, persons eligible for tax licensing, defining qualified motor vehicles, determining if bonding is required, specifying reporting requirements and periods including defining uniform penalty and interest rates for late reporting, determining methods for collecting and forwarding of motor carrier fuel use taxes and penalties to another jurisdiction and other provisions as will facilitate the administration of the agreement.
