![]() OAR Chapter 166 Division 150 has special district specific retention requirements. You should also look at your internal records retention policies to determine where drone data that is collected from operations fits into them. We have contacted several agencies asking for clarification on retention of data and received various takes on where to find the information. We have not found any specific retention rules directly related to data (imagery, flight logs, etc.) collected from drone operations for special districts. How long do I need to retain data collected from drone operations? In other words, if a person that normally flies drones as a hobbyist, they are no longer a hobbyist once they are flying on behalf of the district and must follow rules for commercial flight. At that point, the pilot needs to be following all federal, state and local rules for commercial drone operations (an example would be flying under Part 107 or Certificate of Authorization). If that community member is doing work on behalf of the district, they may be an agent of the district and the district could be responsible for their actions. What if we have a member of the community who wants to help our district by using their own drone? (7)(a) A public body that registers one or more unmanned aircraft systems under subsection (2)(a) of this section shall provide an annual report to the Oregon Department of Aviation that: (A) Summarizes the frequency of use of the unmanned aircraft systems by the public body during the preceding calendar year (B) Summarizes the purposes for which the unmanned aircraft systems have been used by the public body during the preceding calendar year and (C) Indicates how the public can access the policies and procedures established under ORS 837.362. This report should be filed by January 31st for the previous calendar year. ODA Yes, you must report annually to the State of Oregon in accordance with ORS 837.360 (7). ![]() FAA No, there is no reporting requirements.Is there a requirement from FAA or ODA to report on our drone operations? ODA There is a fee of $25 to register your drone and the registration must be renewed annually.FAA There is a fee of $5 to register your drone and the registration must be renewed every 3 years.Yes. Any drone over 0.55 pounds is considered an aircraft and you must register it with both the FAA and the Oregon Department of Aviation (ODA). Do we need to register our drone with the Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) and State of Oregon? We will do our best to update this FAQ as timely as possible when we learn of changes to rules and laws. Your district should be staying current on any and all changes to rules related to drone operations. It is important for you to remember that in order to have liability coverage for your drone operations, you must be able to prove you were in compliance with all federal, state and local laws at the time of the claim.
