Drones and Model Aircraft

The operation of drones and model aircraft is regulated by the Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) and relevant state law. Pierce College is committed to ensuring compliance with those legal standards and reducing risks to safety, security and privacy. The use of any drone or model aircraft either on or above college property or by a college employee, student, or the public is prohibited, unless prior authorization for such use is obtained from the Pierce College Infrastructure Department.

Rules and regulations regarding the use of drones and model aircraft on or above college property are published at WAC 132K-240.
