Fuel distribution restrictions prohibited.
This bill prevents state officials from imposing rules that limit how airports in Minnesota distribute fuel to local communities. It specifically bars the commissioner from creating restrictions on fuel purchasing, storage, or facility management at municipal airports. The law allows the state to still provide financial assistance for fuel facilities while removing barriers to local fuel distribution. This change takes effect immediately after the bill is passed.
