Want to launch my drone over the Norco, LA spillway? Not sure if it is legal or who to ask to check? Anyone has any idea?

You’re good. They have an area designated for drones on south end closer to the river but you can fly em anywhere there far as I know

A day before they started opening bays, the USACE issued a press release that specifically said no drones allowed. I'm not sure if it was just for that first day, but I'd doublecheck. There's an office right on River Rd at the downstream end of the spillway.

"You People" need to stop with the casual, detached interpretations of FAA regs. It could get well-meaning drone operators (and passengers in SW 1282 inbound from Las Vegas) in a heap of trouble.

Call these guys about their newly published circular entitled "LEO Guidance for Unmanned Aircraft Systems (UAS)"
