The bill enacts R.S. 2:604.3, which authorizes the Houma-Terrebonne Airport Commission to appoint and commission peace officers. These officers will be responsible for enforcing laws, rules, and regulations to ensure the protection of persons, properties, and interests within the jurisdiction of the Houma-Terrebonne airport. The jurisdiction is defined as the physical boundaries of the airport and any properties owned by the commission. The bill outlines the requirements for peace officers, including being citizens of Louisiana, at least 21 years old, and P.O.S.T. certified.

Additionally, the bill grants the commissioned peace officers regular police powers concerning criminal offenses related to their duties, while also clarifying that municipal, parish, or state law enforcement agencies retain their authority within the same jurisdiction. The peace officers are required to report suspected criminal activities to the appropriate law enforcement agencies and must cooperate with them during investigations. The commission is tasked with adopting rules and regulations for the management and training of its peace officers, ensuring they maintain proper law enforcement training. The bill also specifies that it does not alter the assessment, collection, and administration of ad valorem tax revenues within the commission's jurisdiction.
