Re: Application for Issuance of Section 333 Exemption Based upon Exemption 11110 

Issued to Trimble Navigation Ltd. 

Dear Sir or Madam, 

SITECH Wyoming LLC ("SITECH Wyoming") herewith applies for the issuance of an exemption 

under Section 333 of the FAA Modernization and Reform Act of 2012 based upon Exemption 

11110 issued to Trimble Navigation Ltd. ("Trimble") on December 10, 2014 in FAA Docket 2014-

0367. The requested exemption would allow SITECH Wyoming to operate the UX5, UX5 HP 

and ZX5 aircraft manufactured by Trimble or other Trimble aircraft approved for commercial 

operations under Exemption 11110, as amended, such as the UX5, UX5 HP and ZX5 for which 

an amendment has been filed. SITECH Wyoming notes that the FAA recently authorized use of 

the Trimble UX5 by a third party in Exemption No. 11257, Regulatory Docket No. FAA-2014-

0889, on April 2, 2015, under updated conditions, and SITECH Wyoming hereby confirms that it 

will accept such conditions as well as those set forth in Exemption No. 11240, Regulatory 

Docket No. FAA-2014-0894. 

The name and contact information for the applicant are:

SITECH Wyoming [intends] to operate the UX5, UX5 HP and ZX5 from Trimble and will operate 

it in strict compliance with the conditions set forth in Exemption 11110, as such conditions may 

be amended or modified by the FAA from time to time, as was done in Exemption Nos. 11240 

and 11257, or such other conditions as the FAA shall specify, and the following manuals: 
U.S. Department of Transportation 

[Date] 

Page 2 

1) Trimble UX5, UX5 HP or ZX5 Data Sheet; and 

2) Trimble UX5, UX5 HP or ZX5 Aerial Imaging Solution User Guide (User Guide) 

Copies of these manuals are attached. 

These manuals are very similar to the manuals submitted by Trimble in support of the issuance 

of Exemption 11110, updated to reflect changes reported in Trimble's March 4, 2015 

amendment to Exemption 11110. The manuals will be updated by Trimble, as needed to reflect 

any changes to Exemption 11110, based on amendments thereto. 

SITECH Wyoming acknowledges that under current FAA guidance a separate Certificate of 

Waiver or Authorization ("COA'') is required to fly at altitudes in excess of 200 feet AGL, and it 

will apply for COAs where required. SITECH Wyoming hereby requests a blanket COA for 

flights up to 200 feet AGL in the form approved by the FAA. SITECH Wyoming will also file 

NOTAMs for its flights, as required. 

To the extent necessary, SITECH Wyoming refers the FAA to the original exemption and the 

amended exemption requests submitted by Trimble in Docket FAA-2014-0367 for 

demonstration of the public interest and an equivalent level of safety. Because the UX5, UX5 

HP and ZX5 specified in this request are the same or, essentially the same, as the craft already 

approved in Exemption 11110, and SITECH Wyoming will operate the aircraft in strict 

compliance with the conditions in existing exemptions previously granted by the FAA, or as they 

may be amended, notice need not be provided in the Federal Register nor public comment 

solicited. 1 

If you have any questions, please contact the undersigned.

Applicant reads Section 333 as placing the duty on the Administrator not only to process 

applications for exemptions under Section 333 but, if he determines that the conditions set forth herein do 

not fulfill the statutory requirements for approval, to craft conditions for the safe operation of the UAS.
