(a) If the airport manager determines that it is necessary to ensure the security of persons or property on the airport or to comply with federal or state law, the manager may post areas on the airport as restricted. A person may not enter or remain in an area on an airport that is posted as restricted unless

(2) the person is an authorized FAA safety inspector on official government business and carrying current identification as required under applicable FAA regulations; or

(3) the entry is first authorized by the airport manager.

(b) The airport manager may establish qualifications for receipt of an airport identification badge and may issue an identification badge to a qualified person to show that the person has permission to enter an area posted as restricted under (a) of this section. The manager shall establish terms and conditions applicable to the use of identification badges issued under this subsection. A person who accepts an airport identification badge agrees to comply with those terms and conditions. The manager shall provide to each person issued an identification badge a copy of the terms and conditions for review at the time of issuance and shall require each person who accepts a badge to acknowledge by signature that the person has had an opportunity to review those terms and conditions.
