         BE IT ENACTED BY THE LEGISLATURE OF THE STATE OF TEXAS:
         SECTION 1.  Section 70.301, Property Code, is amended by
  adding Subsection (c) to read as follows:
         (c)  This section applies to the fueling of an aircraft
  without regard to whether the fueling is performed within or
  outside of this state or the United States.  This subsection does
  not apply to the fueling of an aircraft owned, leased, or operated
  by or on behalf of an air carrier that is certificated to conduct
  scheduled air transportation services under 14 C.F.R. Part 121.
         SECTION 2.  Subchapter D, Chapter 70, Property Code, is
  amended by adding Section 70.3011 to read as follows:
         Sec. 70.3011.  EFFECT ON OTHER LAW.  This subchapter does not
  abridge the protections afforded by any applicable law, including:
               (1)  Chapter 9, Business & Commerce Code; and

         SECTION 3.  Section 70.301(c), Property Code, as added by
  this Act, applies only to the fueling of an aircraft performed on or
  after the effective date of this Act. The fueling of an aircraft
  performed before the effective date of this Act is governed by the
  law applicable to the fueling immediately before that date, and the
  former law is continued in effect for that purpose.
