Unmanned aircraft systems; prohibiting use over certain property. Effective date.
SB 1072 prohibits unauthorized drone flights over specific properties in Oklahoma, directly affecting residential homeowners (defined as "homesteads") and agricultural operations ("secure farmstead areas" including livestock facilities). The bill bans drone use within 400 feet of these properties without permission, with stricter rules for drones equipped with cameras or surveillance devices. Violations carry fines up to $1,000 for first offenses and $10,000 for repeat offenses, plus potential jail time. Property owners can seek court-ordered injunctions to stop drone harassment and require destruction of illegally recorded data.
