Summary: The Institute of Makers of Explosives (IME) supports the FAA's proposed rulemaking but urges the inclusion of specific restrictions to prevent unauthorized drone use over explosives sites. They advocate for stricter security vetting, reciprocal recognition of existing federal clearances, and exceptions to line-of-sight requirements to facilitate safe security patrols and site reviews.
