The proposed legislation, known as the LuLu Gribbin Shark Alert System Act, aims to establish a shark alert system specifically for Baldwin and Mobile Counties in Alabama. The bill mandates the Department of Conservation and Natural Resources to develop, implement, and operate this alert system, with assistance from various state agencies and local emergency management organizations. The alert system will be activated upon receiving a confirmed report of an unprovoked shark attack near the shoreline, ensuring timely communication to the public through wireless emergency alerts.

Additionally, the bill outlines the roles of various stakeholders, including first responders and local law enforcement, in the operation of the alert system. It also includes a provision that protects the department and associated entities from private lawsuits for any failure to activate the alert system. The act is set to take effect on October 1, 2025. There are no deletions from current law mentioned in the text, but the new legal language includes the establishment of the alert system and the definitions of relevant terms.
