Section 2209 required the Secretary of Transportation to establish a process to allow operators or proprietors of fixed-site facilities such as oil refineries, chemical facilities, critical infrastructure, to petition the Administrator of the FAA to prohibit or restrict the operation of unmanned aircraft in close proximity to their facility. Fixed sites should have the opportunity to establish a no-fly zone over the site, before UAS is granted permission to carry hazardous materials.
