AI Summary

This bill aims to mitigate the climate impact of private and corporate air travel. It establishes a "climate impact landing fee" of at least $1,000 for personal aircraft, corporate-owned aircraft, and charter rental aircraft landing at airports in the Commonwealth of Massachusetts. The bill exempts public aircraft, scheduled commercial passenger air transportation, and freight or cargo aircraft from this fee. The bill requires that at least 50% of the proceeds from the landing fee be deposited into a newly established "transportation infrastructure climate adaptation fund," which will be used by the Massachusetts Department of Transportation to invest in infrastructure repairs and adaptations due to climate change effects.
