330958 - talked to Savana. She backdated the assignment of the new

330966 - business days.

330969 - Can contine to go through Fastrak lane, because system reads both
330970 - Fastrak device, and the license plate, and accepts payment based only
330971 - one of them. Since the license plate has been updated, that is
330972 - enough for Fastrak to bill the customer.
330974 - ..
330975 - We can buy Fastrak device at Costco, Wallgreens or Safeway. Costs
330976 - $25, which opens an account with $25 on account at Fastrak.

332522 - earlier this morning, per above. ref SDS 0 Y64H
332524 - ..
332525 - Violations in this case will be waived, because the new owner of

332532 - She explained these problems occurred, because the battery failed in
332533 - the Fastrak device last June. Fastrak should have sent a notice to
332534 - get a new device, but there records show this didn't happen for some
332535 - unknown reason.
