An FAA proposed rule would allow specific categories of "critical infrastructure" sites to apply for restrictions on drone operations around their facilities. Restrictions would be approved based on "safety or security criteria." Sixteen sectors would be eligible for restrictions,&nbsp;including communications, energy production, transportation systems, chemical facilities, water treatment plants, and defense industrial complexes. Restricted areas would have defined horizontal and vertical boundaries, and violators could face civil or criminal penalties.&nbsp;Comments on the proposal are due by July 6, 2026.
