Notice of Proposed Rulemaking (NPRM) for Requirements for Amateur Rocket Activities
The Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) released an NPRM for Requirements for Amateur Rocket Activities (PDF) on Thursday, June 14, 2007, in the Federal Register. The FAA is proposing revisions to amateur rocket regulations and activities to preserve the level of safety associated with amateur rocketry. Current regulations are outdated and do not reflect current industry practice. This action would update the current regulations for amateur rocket activities for safe operation in the National Airspace System.
