Aeronautics Rules -- ARSD Article 70:02

ARSD Chapter 70:02:01 – Procedural rules. Due to changes in the organizational structure of the South Dakota Department of Transportation, the South Dakota Aeronautics Commission is amending these rules to eliminate outdated references to commission staff and clarify the language of the rules. These rule changes will facilitate administration of the rules by promoting clarity and accuracy. ARSD Chapter 70:02:02 – Aerial applicators; Chapter 70:02:03 – Structures affecting aviation; Chapter 70:02:05 – Registration of aircraft; and Chapter 70:02:06 – Pilot and airport employee identification. These rules are being repealed. Repealing these rules is consistent with changes in the law and the current practices and procedures of the Department of Transportation.

New content is added below as the draft rules move through the rule-making process.
