Bill Summary
General Description: This bill addresses provisions related to advanced air mobility.
AI Summary
This bill addresses advanced air mobility (AAM) in Utah by establishing several key provisions. First, the Utah Department of Transportation is required to conduct a comprehensive community outreach and public education campaign about AAM, which includes educating the public about potential use cases, benefits, economic impacts, and state initiatives related to this emerging transportation technology. The bill also expands the legal definitions related to AAM, introducing new terms like "authoritative supplemental data service provider" and "flight information exchange" to provide clarity around the technical components of advanced air mobility systems. Additionally, the bill mandates that the department develop an advanced air mobility toolkit by July 1, 2026, which will provide political subdivisions with model ordinances, best practices, and resources for developing AAM policies, though municipalities will not be required to adopt these recommendations. The bill also modifies aircraft registration requirements, stipulating that beginning January 1, 2025, unmanned aircraft systems and advanced air mobility aircraft used for commercial operations must have a current certificate of registration issued by the state department. The bill is set to take effect on May 7, 2025, and represents a proactive approach to integrating and regulating emerging aerial transportation technologies.
