This bill updates Pennsylvania laws to create new funding accounts and establish taxes on aviation fuels, including traditional jet fuel and emerging alternatives like hydrogen and electricity. It directs specific annual amounts from the Multimodal Fund to the Aviation Restricted Account and sets escalating budget caps for department activities related to aviation programs. The legislation also defines key terms such as alternative aviation fuel and grants the Department of Transportation authority to adopt zoning regulations for airports while addressing issues like abandoned aircraft. Additionally, the bill imposes new taxes on aviation fuels, outlines how distributors must report these taxes, and specifies how the collected revenue will be used and refunded.
