I. The location of essential motorist services, including food, fuel, lodging, camping, and attractions, on connecting service roads within 3 miles of the intersection with the limited access highway, within 5 miles for a campground, within 20 miles for an attraction, or within 1 mile of the intersection in urban compact areas, may be indicated to users of the limited access facility by appropriate signs, the specifications of which shall be determined by the commissioner of transportation. The distance specified shall be measured by computing the travel length from the terminal of an exit ramp to the nearest point along the public highway where the nearest existing driveway entrance to the service is reached. II. Signs permitted under paragraph I may be rented for a fee established by rules adopted by the commissioner of transportation pursuant to RSA 541-A. The amount of the fee charged to any participant shall be reasonable and equitable and not exceed a fair portion of the full cost of administering the motorist service signing program, including labor, equipment, maintenance, and material costs for state and contract services. The sum of the fees collected shall be sufficient to ensure the motorist service sign program is self-supporting.
