- Introduced -

SB 813 - The State Highways and Transportation Commission may provide financial assistance to owners of any privately owned airport designated as a reliever airport by the Federal Aviation Administration. Also, assistance may be given to airports currently owned and operated by instrumentalities of the state. This act would also permit procurement for projects designated as emergencies to be made in an expeditious manner.

Beginning September 1, 1998, the revenues from the sales and use tax on aviation jet fuel shall be deposited in the aviation trust fund. The aviation assistance language in Section 17 of SB 1 of the 1997 extraordinary session is repealed.
