WASHINGTON — The Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) proposes an $88,108 civil penalty against Bridgewater State University for allegedly failing to keep required records.

The agency alleges the Massachusetts university, which operates an FAA-approved pilot school, failed to maintain a required log of nine students’ course attendance, subjects, flight training, and names and grades of tests taken.

The FAA will conduct drone-detection testing near Santa Teresa, New Mexico, from June 16-27. 

The FAA’s Center of Excellence for UAS Research (ASSURE), in coordination with U.S. Customs and Border Protection and the Doña Ana County International Jetport, will conduct the testing. State and local first responders will also participate.  

As part of the FAA’s continuous efforts to improve safety in the National Capital Region, the agency has published modifications to helicopter zones and routes around Ronald Reagan Washington National Airport (DCA).
