with regard to ua us because of the differences between the us and foreign countries in terms of say japan for one of the differences is the farmer owns the airspace above his land, so there is a different perspective. moving forward the us working with the international aviation community we will in fact maintain our position as aeronautical leaders. one of the one of the things i said in my statement is if we were to implement the notice of proposed rulemaking now we would be on par with foreign countries. however countries. however, we are probably 16 to 18 months away from doing that. it is it is going to be that kind of back and forth. there are reasons for it. faa should be congratulated for moving to the.that it is >> thank you, senator. it is true that we are on par one rules get adopted for operations. where operations. where we lag behind is planning for the future. a high degree of automation is coming. the europeans are getting ready. we are not so much. >> i i wonder, skill again a couple of things that we have done by congress in partnership with the faa is to create th

as uas operations increase we are reaching out to educate the public on the safe and responsible use of uas. they provided guidance on the do's and don'ts of safe operation. we have partnered with members of the industry and modeling community to initiate the know before you fly campaign for safe and responsible uas operation . the faa are also working to position law enforcement to deter, detect, investigate, and report unauthorized operations. our 1st action is to educate you auas operators about compliance, when appropriate we will and have use administrative or legal enforcement action. it is a top priority for the faa. we are looking beyond that rulemaking to identify additional types of operations and what technologies we may need to certify. we have consulted with the rulemaking committee for enabling with the highest societal benefits. these we will result in an additional focus areas that will become the plans for integration. we must ensure resources are directed to areas with the highest safety risk. we will need to expand collaborative data driven processes with the uas in

while our first action is to educate uas operators about compliance, when appropriate we will and we have used administrative or legal enforcement action. issuing a final rule for small uas operations is a top priority for the faa. we are looking beyond that will making to identify additional types of operations and what i don't use we may need to certify. the faa has consulted with the uas aviation rulemaking committee for recommendations for enabling uas operations at the highest societal benefits. these recommendations will result in additional focused areas that will become the centerpiece of faa's plans for uas integration. as industry and system grow more complex we must ensure that our resources are directed to the air is at the highest safety was be we will need to expand collaborative data-driven processes that the industry to improve safety and streamline certification. to reach these objectives we're developing a new advisory circular to inform the u.s. industry how do you risk-based decision-making established certification criteria. this is essential for enabling the certification

use. these are people who've got to be educated. the faa is stepping out to make sure they know what they are doing if they are going to put a uas in the sky. >> really good point. we should also talk about amazon and google. they both announced they are working on using small groans for delivering packages and . the newell new rules don't allow drones do fly over people though. i wonder if this is threatening innovation. >> i know mz ae a impatient right now. all of us. i'd love to call up and get my precipitation delivered to my door. a new book i wanted, you know. there are great ideas out there. and right now with all of the bad weather, think about a uas that can go on your roof and look to see if there is damage, you know, and keep the roofing company from having to put people in harm's way. so there is a lot good that can happen. and i this i we're going to see it progress pretty rapidly. obviously the innovation is out there and people see what can do. i think it will move more quickly than anyone thought. >> what are the most exciting innovations you have seen proposed? >> some of the most important certainly are in areas l

we agree with you that there is a good use for uas in a newsgathering environment, but at this point design and manufacturing standards are really not known to the faa, so it is hard for us to stand behind those. senator heller: so it is not a problem with the idea. you do not have a problem with the idea. it is whether or not we get to a point in technology that a unit is worthy enough to fly over other human beings. ms. gilligan: that is or he accurate. if there were to be an accident with a uas overpopulated area the questions the committee would be asking -- how is it that we authorize that? we need to assure ourselves that we have done the safety analysis and that we have mitigated those risks before we can authorize that information. senator heller: thank you for your comment. mr. chairman, i am done. senator booker: i have been informed that we have to close the hearing. [laughter] i want to thank everybody for coming here. your testimonies have been invaluable, and i'm very grateful for that. it is exciting when you are on a new frontier of possibility and opportunity for this

and i'm honestly not thoroughly familiar with the use of the cell towers in connection with uas. and so i think that's something that -- that we would need to get back to you on. >> i would welcome that. let me switch to farm bureau. you, i'm sure said this in your testimony and i wasn't here to hear it. i'd be glad to hear about the value of uavs in kansas, many of agriculture recognizes there's a great potential here. i want to ask you a specific question though, about how necessary are beyond line of sight operations for agricultural purposes. >> well, thank you for the question, senator. the gentleman -- one of my other panelists spoke about the use of the japanese and some uses going on in the asian countries. they are using these -- these uass in ways far beyond where we are now in terms of they're not only using them for scouting, but application of nutrients, of things of that nature. many of those things are beyond line of sight control. presently all of our uass we have available in the u.s. are line of sight controlled. to the other point that has been made, the safety

uas. the farm bureau is in the process of submitting comments regarding the proposed rules. it is our hope that farmers and ranchers will be able to use uas as part as precision ag systems. ms. ayotte: thank you. i would like to direct my first question to ms. gilligan. what i wanted to ask you about with this nea -- new area of rulemaking and implementation of the small uas rule and subsequent rules how does the agency plan to fund this effort?
