A New Hampshire bill that would set limits around how government agencies and average citizens can use drones is nearly ready to head to Gov. Maggie Hassan’s desk.
A conference committee of lawmakers from the House and Senate issued a report on Rep. Neal Kurk’s H.B. 602 last week, laying out their efforts to come to a compromise on the bill’s provisions.
The chambers will soon vote on the committee’s efforts at compromise — the last procedural hurdles the bill must clear before it goes to Hassan — meaning that restrictions on things like drone-assisted surveillance or the use of the technology near correctional facilities could soon be in place in the state.
