Senate Bill No. 1193

CHAPTER 460

An act to add Chapter 8 (commencing with Section 21710) to Part 1 of Division 9 of the Public Utilities Code, relating to aviation.

[ Approved by Governor  September 22, 2024. Filed with Secretary of State  September 22, 2024. ]

LEGISLATIVE COUNSEL'S DIGEST

SB 1193, Menjivar. Airports: leaded aviation gasoline.

Existing law, the State Aeronautics Act, governs various matters relative to aviation in the state, and authorizes the Department of Transportation to adopt, administer, and enforce rules and regulations for the administration of the act. Under existing law, a violation of the State Aeronautics Act is a crime.

This bill would prohibit an airport operator or aviation retail establishment, as defined, from selling, distributing, or otherwise making available leaded aviation gasoline to consumers on or after January 1, 2031, as provided. Because these provisions would be part of the State Aeronautics Act, the bill would impose a state-mandated local program.

The California Constitution requires the state to reimburse local agencies and school districts for certain costs mandated by the state. Statutory provisions establish procedures for making that reimbursement.

This bill would provide that no reimbursement is required by this act for a specified reason.

Bill Text

The people of the State of California do enact as follows:

SECTION 1.

 Chapter 8 (commencing with Section 21710) is added to Part 1 of Division 9 of the Public Utilities Code, to read:

CHAPTER  8. Leaded Aviation Gasoline

21710.

 For purposes of this chapter, “aviation retail establishment” means any public or private entity that sells aviation gasoline, or offers or otherwise makes available aviation gasoline, to a customer, including other businesses or government entities, for use in this state.

21711.

 An airport operator or aviation retail establishment shall not sell, distribute, or otherwise make available leaded aviation gasoline to consumers on or after January 1, 2031, in compliance with Section 47107 of Title 49 of the United States Code.

21712.

 If a provision of this chapter conflicts with a federal grant assurance in effect on or before December 31, 2030, that provision shall not apply to an airport operator subject to that grant assurance until the federal grant assurance expires.

SEC. 2.

 No reimbursement is required by this act pursuant to Section 6 of Article XIII B of the California Constitution because the only costs that may be incurred by a local agency or school district will be incurred because this act creates a new crime or infraction, eliminates a crime or infraction, or changes the penalty for a crime or infraction, within the meaning of Section 17556 of the Government Code, or changes the definition of a crime within the meaning of Section 6 of Article XIII B of the California Constitution.
