The U.S. Department of Energy's (DOE) National Renewable Energy Laboratory (NREL) is proposing to use an unmanned aircraft system (UAS) to conduct photography and videography of the substation at the Flatirons Campus located in Jefferson County, Colorado. Multiple flights would occur over a one week period between September 16th and 22nd, 2020. Flights would facilitate inspection and documentation during a forensic investigation of a recent transformer loss being completed by Knott Laboratory, LLC. NREL would provide site access and pilot a UAS in support of the investigation.
