EAA Responds to Proposed Leaded AVGAS Ban

Washington State Ban, Too Much, Too Fast

The Experimental Aircraft Association (EAA) has joined other general aviation associations in opposing a Washington-State House of Representatives bill that would ban the sale of leaded aviation gas in the Evergreen State. The bill—WA HB1554—would, as of 01 January 2024, begin a phased-in restriction on the “selling, distributing, or otherwise making available to consumers” leaded avgas in Washington State. Subject restrictions would initially be placed on those airports in the areas of greatest population with additional restrictions culminating in a complete ban for the entire state in 2030.
