An Act prohibiting solar radiation modification or sunlight reflection methods, cloud seeding and polluting atmospheric interventions within this Commonwealth; imposing duties on the Pennsylvania State Police and sheriffs; and imposing penalties.

SB 508, the Clean Air Preservation Act, prohibits cloud seeding, solar radiation modification (like reflecting sunlight), and any polluting atmospheric interventions within Pennsylvania. It directly affects any entity - individuals, companies, or government agencies - conducting these activities in the state. The bill requires Pennsylvania State Police or sheriffs to issue immediate cease-and-desist orders for suspected violations, treating them as court orders. Violators face felony charges with fines of at least $500,000 per day or up to two years in prison, plus penalties under Pennsylvania’s existing Air Pollution Control Act.
