This bill proposes the addition of a new section, 5A-3-52a, to the Code of West Virginia, 1931, establishing reporting requirements for the use of state-owned aircraft by state agencies, excluding the West Virginia State Police. Under the new provisions, all state agencies must submit a Flight Request Form to the Aviation Division prior to utilizing state-owned aircraft, and the purpose of each flight must be certified before approval.

Additionally, the bill mandates that the Aviation Division publish a log of all flights on its website, which must include relevant details such as the purpose of each flight. This log is required to be updated at least every four weeks, ensuring transparency and accountability in the use of state-owned aircraft. The intent of the bill is to enhance oversight and reporting related to the use of these resources by state agencies.
