An act to amend Section 21709 of the Public Utilities Code, relating to aviation. LEGISLATIVE COUNSEL'S DIGEST Existing law requires owners and operators of a skydiving or sport parachuting operation to have a duty to ensure that the parachutist in command of a tandem jump and the parachute rigger responsible for packing the parachute are in compliance with all federal laws relating to parachute safety and certification, to the extent allowed by federal law. This bill would make a nonsubstantive change to that provision. The people of the State of California do enact as follows: SECTION 1. Section 21709 of the Public Utilities Code is amended to read: 21709. (a) To the extent allowed by federal law, the owners and operators of a skydiving or sport parachuting operation shall have a duty to ensure that the parachutist in command of a tandem jump and the parachute rigger responsible for packing the parachute are in compliance with all federal laws relating to parachute safety and certification. (b) This section shall not decrease any legal duties.
