  2. Overview Intro to Unmanned Aircraft Systems Operating a UAS Registration & DroneZone Special Rule for Model Aircraft Part 107 UAS Integration Activities Next Steps Research, Security, & Engagement

  3. What is a UAS? Satellite Unmanned Aircraft Ground Control Station

  4. What are they being used for?

  5. What are they being used for?

  6. What are they being used for?

  7. What is the FAA’s Authority? • U.S. airspace is public space • 49 U.S.C. §40103(a)(1) • UAS are aircraft subject to regulation • 49 U.S.C. §40102(a)(6); 14 CFR 1.1; PL 112-95 §331, §336 • An aircraft is any device used, or intended to be used, for flight • UAS must comply with FAA regulations

  8. Online UAS Registration • Applies to all small UAS over 0.55 and weighing less than 55 lbs. flown outside • Owner must provide name, address, email • Non-recreational owners must provide make, model, and serial number (if available) of each sUAS • Register through FAA DroneZone

  9. FAA DroneZone • One-stop-shop for small UAS needs • Registration • Airspace Authorizations & Waivers • Operational Waivers • Accident Reporting

  10. Special Rule for Model Aircraft Also known as Part 101, the hobby rules, Section 336 – however you refer to it, these are the rules when you’re flying just for fun.

  11. Part 107 Operating Rules

  12. Part 107 Waivers • A number of provisions of Part 107 can be waived, including: • Night operations • Operations over people • Visual line-of-sight • Weather/visibility requirements • Swarm • Waivers are submitted in the DroneZone and must carefully, clearly, and concretely demonstrate how the proposed operation can be conducted safely • Reading and responding to all the questions in the Waiver Safety Explanation Guidelines is an essential component to a successful waiver application

  13. Part 107 Airspace Requirements • Operations in Class G and Class E non-surface do not require ATC authorization • Operations in Class B, C, D & Class E surface areas require ATC authorization • Online portal available at the FAA DroneZone.

  14. UAS Facility Maps • Depict maximum altitudes that FAA may grant controlled airspace access for Part 107 operations without additional safety analysis • Maps do not authorize operations • Job aid for airspace authorization requests • Assists the FAA in streamlining authorization process • All maps are available on FAA website

  15. Low Altitude Authorization and Notification Capability (LAANC) • Goals • Enable efficient notification and authorization services to small UAS operators • Provide the data exchange framework for UAS traffic management (UTM)

  16. LAANC Rollout Schedule 2. Western NorthMay 24, 2018 6. Central NorthSeptember 13, 2018 5. Eastern NorthAugust 16, 2018 1. South CentralApril 30, 2018 3. Western SouthJune 21, 2018 4. Eastern South July 19, 2018

  17. UAS Security Sensitive Restrictions • 400+ restrictions oversensitive facilities, including military sites, national landmarks, and other sites • Existing authority from Title 14 CFR 99.7 • Must contact facility, and if in controlled airspace, the FAA, to operate over sites • Interactive map and a list of facilities are available here: https://uas-faa.opendata.arcgis.com/ • Existing restricted airspace remains in effect

  18. UAS Integration Pilot Program Develop and test innovative UAS concepts Inform future guidelines and regulations Evaluate involvement of state, local, tribal governments

  19. Program Highlights • Create a partnershipframeworkfor private sector and state / local / tribal governments to achieve broader national policy • Foster technologicalinnovationthat will create high-payingjobs • Advance the UAS industry by informing development of enabling regulations that permit more complex, demand-driven operations • Push the boundaries of UAS use by expanding what is routinely authorized under the small UAS rule

  20. UAS Test Sites • Provide an avenue for the UAS industry to conduct more advanced UAS research and concept validation • 7 UAS Test Sites with nationwide COAs: • University of Alaska – Fairbanks • State of Nevada • New York Griffiss International Airport • North Dakota Department of Commerce • Texas A&M University – Corpus Christi • Virginia Polytechnic Institute and State University (Virginia Tech) • New Mexico State University

  21. UAS Center of Excellence

  22. Reporting Unsafe UAS Activity • While flying or at the airport: • Report the sighting to Air Traffic Control • Note the location, altitude, and characteristics of the aircraft • Anywhere else: • Call local law enforcement • The FAA has published guidance for law enforcement to help them respond to unsafe UAS activity • Be as detailed & specific as possible • Location, altitude, direction, pictures, videos, etc.

  23. UAS Outreach and Education
