AI Summary
This bill provides a sales and use tax exemption related to internet and telecommunications infrastructure projects involving a federally recognized Indian tribe. The exemption applies to the labor, services, and materials used in the construction and installation of a "qualified infrastructure project," which is defined as the deployment of modern global internet and telecommunications infrastructure in a distressed coastal area of Washington state. The project must be owned by a wholly-owned subsidiary of a federally recognized tribe located in a coastal county. To claim the exemption, the project owner must meet certain requirements, including the use of a community workforce or project labor agreement. The total amount of exempted taxes is capped at $8 million, and the exemption expires on January 1, 2030.
