Flying and washing in Oklahoma City
These are the rules that shape a job here; we plan around them at the survey, not on site.
Controlled airspace here needs FAA authorization before launch; LAANC grants it in advance and it is filed as part of scheduling.
Will Rogers World Airport in Oklahoma City sits under Class C airspace, and LAANC authorization is required before drone operations inside that ring.
Tinker Air Force Base publishes an active No Drone Zone covering a five-mile radius on the southeast side of the Oklahoma City metro.
National Park Service Policy Memorandum 14-05 prohibits drone launch, landing and operation at the Oklahoma City National Memorial.
Oklahoma City's stormwater article in Chapter 57 of the municipal code exists to control the introduction to the municipal separate storm sewer system of spills, dumping or the disposal of materials other than stormwater, and to prohibit illicit discharges.
Exterior alterations to buildings in the Bricktown Urban Design District need a Certificate of Approval from the Downtown Design Commission and staff, and the same review covers new construction, demolition, murals and city projects.
Flights stage from the client's own property with the owner's written consent; public parks and rights of way are not used as launch sites without a permit.
Rinse water is contained and recovered wherever the local storm-drain rule requires it, and the containment method is written into the proposal.
Any sidewalk or lane closure is permitted with the city before the job and its lead time is part of the schedule.
State-level drone law, licensing and the statewide season are on the Oklahoma page. See also where drones need permits.
