S. 5440--A 2
1 If a provision of this title conflicts with a federal grant assurance

3 such provision shall not apply to an airport operator subject to such
4 grant assurance until the federal grant assurance expires.
5 § 2. Severability. If any clause, sentence, paragraph, subdivision,

10 directly involved in the controversy in which such judgment shall have
11 been rendered. It is hereby declared to be the intent of the legislature
12 that this act would have been enacted even if such invalid provisions
13 had not been included herein.
14 § 3. This act shall take effect immediately.
