Activity for Which Permit is
Requested: Waste Management. The
applicant seeks an Antarctic
Conservation Act permit for waste
management activities associated with
coastal camping and the operation of a
remotely piloted aircraft system (RPAS)
in the Antarctic Peninsula region. The
applicant seeks permission for no more
than 40 campers and expedition staff to
camp overnight at select locations for a
maximum of 10 hours ashore. Camping
would be away from vegetated sites and
at least 150m from wildlife
concentrations or lakes, protected areas,
historical sites, and scientific stations.
Tents would be pitched on snow, ice, or
bare smooth rock, at least 20m from the
high-water line. No food, other than
emergency rations, would be brought
onshore and all wastes, including
human waste, would be collected and
returned to the ship for proper disposal.
For remotely piloted aircraft systems
(RPAS) operation, the applicant
proposes to operate small, batteryoperated RPAS consisting, in part, of a
quadcopter equipped with cameras to
collect commercial and educational
footage of the Antarctic. The quadcopter
would not be flown over concentrations
of birds or mammals, or over Antarctic
Specially Protected Areas or Historic
Sites and Monuments. The RPAS would
only be operated by pilots with
extensive experience, who are preapproved by the Expedition Leader.
