Abstract: We will describe the Federal and state requirements for becoming UAS operators in the vector control industry. We will also compare the different state licensing regulations and continuing education requirements for retaining licensure. Besides a useful guideline, this may also be the basis to drive consistency across various state agencies who regulate UAS operations and CEU requirements. The goal is to streamline VCD’s administrative compliance to safely and efficiently operate UAS vehicles for the protection of public health. . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . .
