AI Summary

This bill, the "Drone Safety and Efficiency Act," directs the Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) to adopt a performance-and risk-based approach in reviewing requests for certain certificates of waiver under Part 107 of Title 14 of the Code of Federal Regulations. It aims to improve the waiver application process, including by leveraging data and analytics to standardize the format and reduce the use of open-ended descriptive prompts. The bill also requires the FAA to consider the applicant's control over the real property in the area of operation when determining whether to issue a waiver, and to publish all issued waivers on the FAA's website with certain information. Additionally, the bill allows the FAA to streamline the approval of applications that are substantially similar to previously approved waivers, and establishes an expedited review process for requests to modify or renew previously issued waivers.
