I. FEDERAL, STATE, AND LOCAL REGULATIONS

Legal Definition

▪ A drone is classified as an unmanned aircraft system (UAS) by the FAA. ▪ A UAS is an aircraft system without a flight crew on board

▪ Also known as unmanned aircraft (UA), unmanned aircraft vehicle (UAV), remotely piloted vehicle (RPV)

▪ The rules for operation depends on why you want to fly a drone.

11

Important Historical Regulation

▪ Feb. 2012: FAA Modernization and Reform Act of 2012 set a deadline of Sep. 30, 2015 to establish regulations for use of commercial drones.

▪ Section 333 granted Secretary of Transportation the “authority to determine whether an airworthiness certificate is required for a UAS to operate safely in the National Airspace System (NAS)

Aug. 2013: Until then, UAS licenses granted case-by-case requiring public entity sponsor

▪ Certificate of Operation (COA)

12

333 exemption vs. Part 107

13

Federal Laws

▪ June 2016: FAA and DoT released commercial drone operational rules ▪ The Small Unmanned Aircraft Regulations (Part 107)

▪ Apply to commercial drones under 55 lbs.

▪ Drones must remain within operator’s line of sight

▪ Drones cannot fly over “unprotected people” unless “they are directly participating in the UAS operation”

▪ Max. speed of 100 mph, max altitude of 400 feet

▪ Pilots at least 16 years old with remote flying certificate and passed an aeronautical test

▪ TSA background tests for all drone pilots

14

Sample Certificate of Achievement

15

State Laws

▪ Federal regulations preempt air travel, hence state and local laws are limited in terms of regulation ▪ 49 U.S. Code § 40103: Grants federal government

exclusive sovereignty of airspace of U.S.

▪ FAA: “[a] navigable airspace free from inconsistent state and local restrictions is essential to the maintenance of a safe and sound air transportation system"

▪ Several states have passed rules imposing regulations on how law enforcement and other agencies can use drones

▪ Virginia: warrant must be issued

▪ New Jersey: warrant must be issued, information must be destroyed within two weeks

16

Case Study: Connecticut

▪ Legislation considered for restrictions on drone weaponization

17

Local Laws

18

Case Study: Schaumburg, IL

▪ § 109A.02 - OPERATION OF DRONES PROHIBITED. The operation of a drone within one hundred (100) feet of the perimeter of any village property or on any village right-of-way during a special event is hereby prohibited.

19

Case Study: Barnstable, MA

▪ SECTION 401A-6(C) Prohibited Activities: “Using, launching, landing or operating an unmanned aircraft from, or on, land or waters associated with any of the Town of Barnstable bathing beaches is prohibited except as approved in writing by the Town Manager”

III. OTHER EMERGING FORMS OF DRONE TECHNOLOGY

48

Most watched musical event of all time 150 million viewers

Case Study: Super Bowl LI Halftime Show

49

Intel Shooting Star drones

▪ Create array of colored LEDs during synchronized shows

▪ Each device is 1 foot long and weighs 28 grams ▪ Currently unclear if will be made available to

public for purchase

50 Disney Spring Holiday Drone Performance - 2016

51 “Vivid” Sydney Drone Performance - 2016

52

“Vivid” Sydney Drone Performance - 2016

53

What made these performances possible from a planning/legal

perspective?

54

FAA “No Drone Zone”

▪ FAA issued Temporary Flight Restrictions (TFRs) around NRG Stadium for Super Bowl, including drone activities

▪ “No Drone Zone” ▪ TFRs stretched 34.5 miles radius area from the

stadium ▪ Drone operator (Intel) granted special

dispensation for performance from FAA earlier in the week to film show

Question: How is this legally radius determined?

55

56

Drone Zoning Proposals

▪ Take time into consideration ▪ e.g. Lift ban heights after certain hours

▪ Allow cities to create public CAD files for drone operators that consider GPS and time sequencing

Question: How will cities “zone for drones”?

57

Case Study: UAV Zoning for Chicago

58

Case Study: UAV Zoning for Chicago

GREEN: Free Use YELLOW/ORANGE: Restricted based on time or day of week RED: Restricted at all times

59

Case Study: Buckingham Fountain

Question: Potential to zone at human scale?

60

Drones as Agriculture Tool

Drones have been used for pollination and aerial imagery purposes by farmers

61

Case Study: Robotic Bee

Japan’s National Institute of Advanced Industrial Science and Technology

4 cm wide, 15 grams

62

Case Study: RoboBees

Wyss Institute of at Harvard University

Half the size of a paper clip, under 0.1 gram

63

Case Study: Plan Bee

Ann Haldewang, Savannah College of Art and Design

Hand-sized, plastic and foam

64

Drones as Delivery Service

Drones have been tested to deliver products of various types to consumers

65

Case Study: Amazon Prime Air

▪ Plans revealed in Dec. 2013 ▪ Packages under 5 lbs. delivered in under 30

minutes ▪ Successfully used in Cambridge, England

▪ First delivery in Dec. 2014

▪ Granted US testing from FAA in Mar. 2015

NTIA White Paper

▪ Feb. 15, 2015: Pres. Obama issued Presidential Memorandum instructing National Telecommunications and Information Administration (NTIA) to convene series of stakeholder efforts to increase privacy protections around commercial and private UAS use.

▪ Led to development of “Voluntary Best Practices for UAS Privacy, Transparency, and Accountability”
