The bill prohibits the "project" from deploying, purchasing, or installing any fully automated cargo handling equipment or infrastructure supporting the charging or fueling of this equipment. Additionally, State agencies that receive a permit application for the "project" are required to review and rule on the permit within 90 days of application submission.
