How your request would benefit the public as a whole; Most of our current projects are publicly funded (i.e. schools). We are continually looking to cut costs in order to stymie the rising price tags of new construction. This is one step to help us get there. 5.

6. A summary we can publish in the Federal Register Federal Register - I, Chris Callen am seeking an exemption ofthe FAA's Sec 333 rules that does not allow the use of an Unmanned Aircraft to be used for Commercial purposes in regards to National Airspace Safety. I am simply petitioning for an exemption to provide enhanced management tools for our construction teams. Our small business hopes to be early adopters ofthis technology to further our company's reach. We see the value ofthe enhanced capabilities of UAS when it comes to large construction sites. With the proliferation of UAS in construction, we would like tC! help the safe implementation in our industry. Maintaining the rules set out by the blanket exemption, we see little risk in performing UAS operations on ourjobsites. 7. Any additional information, views, or arguments available to support your request; 8. Ifyou want to exercise the privileges ofyour exemption outside the United States, you must state the reason. I have no intention of using this exemption outside the United States
