The proposed bill would amend current statutes by adding a new section, 28-8211, to title 28, chapter 25, article 1 of the Arizona Revised Statutes. This new section would explicitly prohibit the state, its political subdivisions, and private entities from using any surveillance equipment or information from an automatic dependent surveillance-broadcast system to calculate, generate, or collect fees from aircraft owners or operators within Arizona's airspace.
Additionally, the bill defines "automatic dependent surveillance-broadcast system" as aviation technology that integrates an aircraft's positioning system, avionics, and ground infrastructure to facilitate a surveillance interface between aircraft and air traffic control or other aircraft. This definition is intended to clarify the type of technology that the prohibition applies to, ensuring that the scope of the law is well understood.
