Bill > HB1429

This bill prohibits any intentional injection, release, or dispersion of chemicals, chemical compounds, substances, or apparatus into the atmosphere within Oklahoma's borders when the express purpose is to affect temperature, weather, or sunlight intensity. The bill effectively eliminates the existing Oklahoma Weather Modification Act by repealing all 24 sections related to that act (Sections 1087.1 through 1087.20 and 1801.1 through 1801.4). The legislation includes an emergency clause, which means the law will take effect immediately upon passage and approval, suggesting the lawmakers view this prohibition as urgent and necessary for public safety or health. By creating a new section of law in Title 27A of the Oklahoma Statutes, the bill codifies a clear prohibition on weather modification activities, potentially ending any state-sanctioned or regulated attempts to deliberately alter atmospheric conditions.
