Reminder: DES taking public comment on proposed unmanned aircraft systems rules through Dec. 28
As part of the agency’s responsibility to keep the state Capitol Campus safe for everyone, the Department of Enterprise Services is proposing rules that will mostly prohibit launching, landing, or operating unmanned aircraft systems (UAS)/drones on the 486-acre campus. DES is taking public comment on the proposed rules through Dec. 28.
How to submit comments
People can submit comments online or via email anytime through Dec. 28.
A public hearing also will be held:
Dec. 226 to 8 p.m.
1500 Jefferson St. S.E.
Olympia, WA
Presentation Room (first floor)
All input is valued equally, whether given in-person at a hearing or submitted in writing.
Before the proposed rules were drafted, four public workshops were held so that anyone interested could participate with DES in the rulemaking process.
