THE EXTENT AND REASONS WE ARE SEEKING RELIEF

EMJ Corporation is seeking relief in specific Subparts of Title 14 C.F.R., which would allow us to effectively use a n sUAS for aerial data collection on all of our construction sites, real estate, and landscapes. We seek this exemption so that we may operate our proposed uSAS within the
confines of all EM J Construction project sites throughout the United States. EMJ also requests that the FAA grant a “blanket” Certificate of Waiver or Authorizations (COA), in accordance with explicit FAA restrictions as stipulated such as sUAS weight and altitude limitati ons.

PROPOSED EQUIPMENT

EMJ has selected the following sUAS make and models for use in conjunction with this section 333 Exemption Petition:

1. DJI Phantom II

2. DJI Phantom III Advanced

Product specifications and user manuals for the DJI Phantom II and the DJI Phantom III Advanced are provided at the rear of this petition as Attachments A and B.

sUAS EQUIPMENT & OPERATION GUIDELINES FOR EMJ CORPORATION

By following the below guidelines, EMJ Corporation assures the FAA, the general public, and our own emplo yees that our sUAS missions will not create a hazard to users of the national airspace system or the public as required per the Reform Act Section 333 (b).2034 Hamilton Place Blvd

WWW.EMJCORP.COM 1. Flights will be conducted at or below 4 00 feet in elevation at all times , in a predetermined, approved flight path

. 2. sUAS equipment will weigh less than 55 pounds The DJI Phantom II weighs less than 3 pounds and the DJI Phantom III Advanced weighs less than 3 pounds as well.

3. Maximum flight speed will be kept below the manufacturer maximum recommendations

of 15m/s or 33.5 m ph for the DJI Phantom II or 16m/s or 35.8 mph for the DJI Phantom

III Advanced.

4. Flights will operate during daytime Visual Flight Rules (VFR) conditions at all times

5. Flights will not o ccur in congested areas

6. Operation of sUAS units will always take place within a visual line of sight (VLOS) of

th e pilots

7. Operation will respect distance rules from airports or heliports as follows:

a. No operation within 5 nautical miles (NM) from an airport having an operational control tower; or

b. 3 NM from an airport with a published instrument flight procedure, but not an operation tower; or

c. 2 NM from an airport without a published instrument flight procedure or an operational tower; or

d. 2 NM from a heliport with a published instrument flight procedure

8. sUAS aircraft will be equipped with and utilize GPS/GLONASS tech nology to ensure that flight parameters meet the above requirements as well as prescribed flight path taking into account our construction site boundaries.

9. sUAS operators will undergo and maintain appropriate training per DJI Phantom II or III

Advanced use r manual s and/or per EMJ Construction sUAS standards and practices

, whichever is more stringent.

10. Aircraft markings shall be incorporated as practicable onto the largest available surface of the DJI Phantom II or DJI Phantom III Advanced as required per FAA guidelines.

11. EMJ Specific sUAS guidelines shall be incorporated in order to ensure compliance with other FAA guidelines not listed here such as right

- of

- way yielding requirements, the use of a visual observer (VO) in certain instances, cloud

- cover and/or w eather restrictions, and conducting operations on construction sites that are unoccupied as opposed to in operation with workers underneath the flight path (not allowed).

12. Approval shall be sought and granted by property owners at location of proposed sUAS operation.

13. Any deviations to the above operating procedures or any out

- of

- the ordinary proposed uses shall be submitted to the appropriate governmental agencies for approval prior to operation.2034 Hamilton Place Blvd

WWW.EMJCORP.COM BENEFIT TO THE PUBLIC AS A WHOLE

E MJ Corporation consists of a family of companies with a common mission to provide construction services to the industry while striving to serve with honesty, transparency and respect. As such, it is our obligation to our clients to provide up

- to

- date info rmation about their projects, and one way to accomplish this is through aerial photography and video footage. Traditional methods of hiring manned aircraft are not practical on most of our construction projects and could pose a safety risk to the public i n urban or congested settings. Additionally,
these manned aircraft flights are not only costly but impose undue environmental emissions and noise pollution impacts to the surrounding public. The use of sUAS’s greatly alleviates things of
this nature.

By utilizing uSAS’s per manufacturer guidelines and under FAA guidelines, EMJ Corporation proposes to accomplish our site surveillance goals in safer more efficient way than through manned aircraft. By allowing us to conduct necessary tasks through use of uSAS’s, both construction site staff and the surrounding public as a whole are safer.

SAFETY CONSIDERATIONS

EMJ sUAS operators shall be trained and required to follow the DJI user manual and the flight safety recommendations. Prior to each flight, the sUAS operator shall be required to conduct a flight safety inspection to check for damaged or worn propellers, batterie s, and other parts that should be replaced or repaired before flight. Our sUAS operator must ensure that our flight batteries, remote controller, wi

- fi range extenders(if used) and any other necessary items are fully charged prior to use. Prior to utiliz ation of an sUAS on one of EMJ’s construction sites, our operator shall submit a flight plan and maintenance plan to the responsible Construction Managers and or Property Owners. This plan shall extensively cover the preparation of equipment prior to the flight, the protocols and timing of the flight missions (taking into account both site operations and public surroundings), and clearly list out the limits of the sUAS equipment in relation to that specific construction jobsite.

Additionally, the use of sU AS’s on our construction sites would allow us to perform inspection and survey tasks without having to endanger the lives of our workers. Traditional methods of site inspection and surveying also incur a high risk of falls by workers trying to perform the se tasks in precarious locations or situations. The use of sUAS’s in these instances would greatly reduce the risk of these unfortunate instances taking place.

With due diligence, EMJ is confident that an sUAS level of safety can be achieved that

meets or exceeds that of current FAA regulations regarding sUAS usage.2034 Hamilton Place Blvd
