Water is added next to fire retardant in the sale authority
What the document says“(1) in subsection (a)(1)-- (A) by striking "a period" and inserting "the period"; and (B) by inserting "or water" after "fire retardant";”
The section amends section 2 of the Wildfire Suppression Aircraft Transfer Act of 1996 (Public Law 104-307; 10 U.S.C. 2576 note). Paragraph (1) makes two changes in subsection (a)(1): the words "or water" are inserted after "fire retardant", and "a period" is replaced by "the period". The struck and inserted words are the ones quoted.
What the document actually says“(1) in subsection (a)(1)-- (A) by striking "a period" and inserting "the period"; and (B) by inserting "or water" after "fire retardant";”
This part adds two words to the old law. The words are "or water." They go after the words "fire retardant." It also swaps one small word for another.
The old law is from 1996. It lets the armed forces sell used planes and parts. The planes are used to fight fires from the sky. Now the law names water as well.
No action is recorded against this proposal. That is not evidence that none has been taken, and nobody has yet read it against the record. See what the tracker does not yet cover.
