Wyoming still looking into testing Drones

Wyoming continues to be interested in being a test site for the possible domestic use of drones. 

During a news conference this week, Governor Matt Mead said that Drones are already being tested at Camp Guernsey and he’s excited about the technology aspect of the testing.  But Mead is a little more concerned about some legal issues surrounding Drones.           

“We wanna make sure in the state of Wyoming, what are the privacy rights?  How are these things going to be used?”

Mead says some legislators are looking at crafting a bill that would address citizen privacy concerns.  But the governor says drone testing could lead to business opportunities for the state.
