I have tracked down the correct people. Can you send me some dates and time when you are free and I can see which one lines up best for the group?

Hi,
I'd like to request a briefing with the relevant experts in OST who work on Counter-UAS coordination between FAA and OST regarding 130i coordination with DOD. We've previously talked to FAA about what they do, but we were told OST is involved when there are multi-modal issues. This briefing would be with me and Ranking Member Gillibrand's personal office staff. Below are some specific questions we'd like addressed at the briefing. Please let me know a good time next week to discuss.
Can you walk us through the 10 USC 130i coordination process at DOT, including timelines? How many DOD facilities have an approved 130i package that includes PNT jamming
technology? Can pre-coordination be done to the extent that it eliminates the need for coordination during a
real world UAS incident? If so, how many DOD covered assets/facilities have moved this far? What limitations are there to an approved 130i package? How has coordination with DOD evolved over the past 18 months? How does the approval process differ for training exercises?
