Horse racing: minisatellite wagering facilities. Authorized emergency vehicles.Existing law generally regulates authorized emergency vehicles, and exempts the driver of an authorized emergency vehicle from various provisions of the rules of the road, as contained in the Vehicle Code, if, among other things, the vehicle is being driven in response to an emergency call, the driver of the vehicle sounds a siren, and the vehicle displays a lighted red lamp visible from the front as a warning to other drivers and pedestrians. Existing law defines authorized emergency vehicle to include, among others, any vehicle owned by the state, or any bridge and highway district, and equipped and used either for fighting fires, or towing or servicing other vehicles, caring for injured persons, or repairing damaged lighting or electrical equipment.This bill would also include in the definition of authorized emergency vehicle a bucket truck owned and operated by a public or private entity that is required to participate in the national Emergency Alert System or provide access to 911 emergency services and a Cell on Wheels unit owned and operated by a public or private entity that provides wireless connectivity services for emergency and other wireless connectivity services outage circumstances, as specified.Under existing law, the State Air Resources Board has adopted the Advanced Clean Fleets Regulations, which imposes various requirements for transitioning local, state, and federal government fleets of medium- and heavy-duty trucks, other high-priority fleets of medium- and heavy-duty trucks, and drayage trucks to zero-emission vehicles, as provided. The bill would prohibit any state regulation that seeks to require, or otherwise compel, the procurement of medium- and heavy-duty zero-emission vehicles from applying to authorized emergency vehicles. Existing law authorizes the California Horse Racing Board to approve minisatellite wagering sites, as defined, under specified conditions. Existing law requires an organization formed by associations or fairs to operate the audiovisual signal system to execute a specified agreement with the association conducting a racing meeting and the minisatellite wagering facility that specifies, among other things, the components of its racing program, including live, out-of-zone, out-of-state, and out-of-country races, that an association or fair will make available to the site.This bill would explicitly require the agreement to specify which live in-state races would be provided by the association or fair to the site. The bill would also make nonsubstantive changes, including deleting obsolete language.Digest Key Vote: MAJORITY Appropriation: NO Fiscal Committee: NOYES Local Program: NO Bill TextThe people of the State of California do enact as follows:SECTION 1. The Legislature finds and declares all of the following:(a) Communications systems are critical to transmit information that first responders rely on during a crisis, including the restoration of telecommunications services to health care providers following a disaster. The ability of first responders to communicate must be dependable and time sensitive to help minimize the risk to life and property and recovery during emergencies.(b) Bucket trucks are operated under various weather and geographic conditions and must restore operations during prolonged power outages. Zero-emission vehicle mandates for these trucks should not hinder a public or private entitys ability to respond to major disruption events, including, but not limited to, severe weather, wildfires, natural disasters, and physical attacks, and to maintain reliable communications services to California communities.SEC. 2. Section 165 of the Vehicle Code is amended to read:165.

For the purposes of this section and the provisions of Sections 2501 and 2510, a vehicle used in responding to emergency, fire, ambulance, or lifesaving calls owned or operated by a federally recognized Indian tribe is considered an authorized emergency vehicle.(2) Any vehicle owned or operated by any department or agency of the United States government when the vehicle is used in responding to emergency fire, ambulance, or lifesaving calls or is actively engaged in law enforcement work.(f) Any vehicle for which an authorized emergency vehicle permit has been issued by the Commissioner of the California Highway Patrol.(g) (1) A bucket truck owned and operated by a public or private entity that is required to participate in the national Emergency Alert System or provide access to 911 emergency services.(2) For purposes of this section, bucket truck means a vehicle configured with an affixed personnel or aerial lift system with a control platform at the end of the lift with a space for the operator to stand and work above the ground.(h) (1) A Cell on Wheels unit owned and operated by a public or private entity that provides wireless connectivity services for emergency and other wireless connectivity services outage circumstances, including, but not limited to, support of FirstNet, the National Public Safety Broadband Network.(2) For purposes of this section, Cell on Wheels unit means a mobile unit vehicle configuration that is equipped with telecommunication infrastructure, including, but not limited to, antennas or network equipment, that is typically mounted on a platform, and that enables rapid deployment of temporary network coverage in remote or emergency situations.SEC. 3.

In addition to the requirements set forth in that provision, the agreement shall specify which components of its racing program, including live in-state, out-of-zone, out-of-state, and out-of-country races, an association or fair will make available to the site.

The board shall license a minisatellite wagering facility for up to five years, and then review the operation and the size of the handle, and determine if it is in the best interest of horse racing to relicense the facility or, in the alternative, license another minisatellite wagering facility that might generate a greater handle.(h)Except as may be provided in the agreement required pursuant to paragraph (2) of subdivision (a), an association or fair shall not be required to make all or part of its racing program available to a minisatellite wagering facility.
