Mr. Dallas Cormier

CP52E San Diego Gas & Electric Company 8316 Century Park Court San Diego

, CA 92123

Dear Mr. Cormier:

This letter is to inform you that we have granted your petition for an amendment. It explains the basis for our decision, describes its effect, and lists any changes to the original conditions

and limitations.

By letter dated June 4, 2015, you petitioned the Federal Aviation Admini stration (FAA) on

behalf of San Diego Gas & Electric Company (hereinafter petitioner or operator) for an

amendment to your current exemption . That exemption from §§ 61.23(a) and ( c ),
61.101(e)(4 ) and (5), 61.113(a), 61.315(a) , 91.7(a), 91.119(c), 91.121, 91.151(a)(1), 91.405(a), 91.407(a)(1), 91.409(a)(1) and (2), and 91.417(a) and (b) of Title 14, Code of Federal Regulations (14 CFR) allows the petitioner to operate a UAS to perform aerial data

collection 1

. You requested an amendment to add the DJI Inspir e

, DJI Spreading Wings S 1000, and Aeryon SkyRanger

.

In your petition, you indicate that there has been no change in the conditions and reasons relative to public interest and safety that were the basis for granting the original exemption.

The FAA has determined that good cause exists for not publishing a summary of the petition

in the Federal Register because the requested amendment to the exemption would not set a precedent, and any delay in acting on this pe tition would be detrimental to the petitioner

. T he

unmanned aircraft authorized in the original grant are comparable in type, size, weight, speed and operating capabilities to those in this petition

.

1 Aerial data collection includes any remote sensing and measuring by an instrument(s) aboard the UA. Examples include imagery (photography, video, infrared, etc.), electronic measurement (precision surveying, RF analysis, etc.), chemical measurement (part iculate measurement, etc.), or any other gathering of data by

instruments aboard the UA.2

Airworthiness Certification

In accordance with the statutory criteria provided in Section 333 of Public Law 112

− 95 in

reference to 49 U.S.C. § 44704, and in consideration of the size, weight, speed, and limited operating area associated with the aircraft and its operation, the Secretary of Transportation

has determined that this aircraf t meets the conditions of Section 333. Therefore, the FAA

finds that relief from 14 CFR part 21, C ertification procedures for products and parts, Subpart H

— Airworthiness Certificates , and any associated noise certification and testing requirements of part 36, is not necessary.

Our Decision

The FAA has determined that the justification for the issuance of Exemption No. 11238 remains valid and is in the public interest. Therefore, under the authority contained

in 49 U.S.C

. 106(f), 40113, and 44701, delegated to me by the Administrator, the operator is granted an amendment to add new aircraft to its UAS operations.

The operator shall add this amendment to its original exemption.

Conditions and Limitations

All conditions and limitations within Grant of Exemption No. 11238 remain in effect except as follows. Condition No. 1 has been updated to reflect the additional aircraft

.

Failure to comply with any of the conditions and limitations of this grant of exempt ion will be grounds for the immediate suspension or rescission of this exemption.

1. Operations authorized by this grant of exemption are limited to the InstantEye Mk

- 2

Gen2

, InstantEye Mk

- 2 Gen3, Pulse Aerospace Vapor 35, Vapor 55, PrecisionHawk

Lancaster Hawkeye, DJI Inspire

, DJI Spreading Wings S 100, and Aeryon SkyRanger when weighing less than 55 pounds including payload. Proposed operations of any other aircraft will require a new petition or a petition to amend this exemption.

T his exemption terminates on March 31, 2017 , unless sooner superseded or rescinded.

Sincerely,

/ s/
