Bill Summary

A BILL To accommodate certain facilities within the right-of-way on any Federal-aid highway.

AI Summary

This bill, known as the Solar Use Network Act or the SUN Act, aims to accommodate certain facilities within the right-of-way on any Federal-aid highway. Specifically, it allows electric vehicle charging infrastructure, renewable energy generation facilities, electrical transmission and distribution infrastructure, and broadband infrastructure and conduit to be treated as facilities that can be accommodated under Section 109(l) of Title 23, United States Code. This means that states, on behalf of the Secretary of Transportation, can approve the accommodation of these types of infrastructure and facilities within the right-of-way of a Federal-aid highway, despite any other state or federal laws or regulations.
