(a) and inserted in Subsec. (a) prohibitions re any person “who interferes or tampers with or circumvents, attempts to circumvent or thwart any security device or equipment installed or who circumvents, attempts to circumvent or fails to comply with security measures or procedures in operation at any airport”, and added new language in Subsec. (b) re prohibition and penalty for “any person who knowingly or intentionally provides false information, makes a false written statement or withholds relevant information on any application or other document required by airport or airplane operator security plans or measures pursuant to federal law and regulations”; P.A. 13-258 amended Subsec. (a) to change penalty from fine of not less than $200 or more than $1,000 or imprisonment of not more than 5 years to a class D felony.
