North Dakota designated UAS test site The Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) recently announced that North Dakota was designated as one of the six test sites for unmanned aerial systems (UAS). North Dakota was among numerous states competing to host one of the test sites that will assist in research integrating unmanned aircraft with manned aircraft in the national airspace. The state has invested more than $14 million to advance UAS research and development. Not only does North Dakota have unen- cumbered airspace, but the Grand Forks region, where the test site will be estab- lished, is also home to a thriving private UAS industry, Grand Forks Air Force Base and the University of North Dakota, which has one of the most established UAS undergraduate programs in the nation. In addition, the state has been extremely proactive in addressing privacy concerns by establishing the nation's frst-ever UAS Research Compliance Committee tasked to oversee, review and approve the use of UAS for research at UND.
