AI-generated summary, report an errorThis bill renews and changes federal authority to detect and stop drones that pose threats, extending these powers to October 1, 2030. It lets the Federal Aviation Administration detect, track, seize, or disable threatening drones and creates an FAA Office of Counter-UAS Activities. It requires a list of approved anti-drone equipment, bars equipment made by certain foreign-linked manufacturers, and sets training standards and privacy rules for intercepted communications. It lets owners of sites like power plants, prisons, and amusement parks, and organizers of large events, apply to use approved drone detection systems. It also creates a pilot program allowing state and local police to use approved systems to disable drones at approved sites and events.
