This bill amends several sections of the Idaho Code related to the regulation of fireworks, specifically introducing the definition and provisions for "aerial common fireworks." The bill defines "aerial common fireworks" as those launched into the air above 20 feet, either by propulsion or mortar. It also updates the definitions of other terms related to fireworks, such as "nonaerial common fireworks," "importer," and "permit." The amendments to Sections 39-2603 through 39-2608 include requirements for licenses and permits for the wholesale and retail sale of both aerial and nonaerial common fireworks, as well as regulations for public displays and temporary fireworks stands.

Additionally, the bill specifies the authorized dates for the sale and use of fireworks, allowing both aerial and nonaerial common fireworks to be sold from June 23 to July 5 and from December 26 to January 1, with the possibility of extending these periods. It also outlines the conditions for short-term storage of fireworks and the necessary safety measures for temporary fireworks stands. The bill declares an emergency, indicating that it will take effect immediately upon passage and approval.
